#it is not as overwhelmingly enjoyed like certain anime i've gotten into lately but that's ok. i'm fine with that

mha is like an estranged awkward father to me. i try not to make my connection to it obvious but i secretly care a lot about it (sometimes against what i desire) and when ppl talk serious shit about it i get defensive. like yea i understand that it's not the best series writing-wise, it's got a good amount of problems and that its mere connection to me makes me cringefail ... but i'll always find some sort of unexplainable comfort in its arms despite its flaws bc there's still a good amount of it to genuinely enjoy without a constantly ironic state of mind that all media must be critiqued with nowadays and i don't expect anyone to understand this odd relationship but myself

Regarding the last question, do you think Edd/Eddy always had been planned or intentional since first day, or was something that incidentally developed over the time?

After all, the only crew member we know who actively shipped Edd/Eddy was Raven Molisee, but she didn't join the show until season 5, and the show was already heavily suggesting them since at least season 3. Or even late season 2.

(I know you don't have much contact with behind-the-scenes, but I always find nice and fun knowing your theories and speculations).

while i do appreciate very much that someone enjoys hearing my opinion on this kind of thing, i don't see much point in speculating on a topic that i know in particular has been speculated about and discussed to death by people with much more info than me. i seriously know very, very little about that stuff. and it's not that the information doesn't interest me, i just haven't gotten around to reading it all. personally i've always been more into the voice acting than individual writers or animators. it's closer to my own special interest as a singer.

anyway i can't say for certain why edd and eddy act the way they do together without it being intentional bc i genuinely have no clue. perhaps i'm just too deep into gaysville to come up with a different theory. but,,,,, i don't think it was intentional, certainly not initially, and i hesitate to pose any theories because there may be an actual answer or educated guess already out there and frankly don't want to look like more of an idiot than necessary.

you can add this to my bad fan write up, but ultimately i don't really care whether anyone on the crew "shipped" eddeddy or any other pairings. cuz again, i don't think anyone set out with the intention that edd and eddy end up being...whatever the hell they are by the end of the show and movie. much less a full blown 🏳️‍🌈 gouple 🏳️‍🌈 i'm willing to believe that there were folks on the crew later on who possibly liked the idea and went with it. but that's the most i'm comfortable saying at this point.

i will say that i love seeing danny and others who worked on the show being supportive of lgbt headcanons/ships. it means a lot to me and i'm sure to the rest of the overwhelmingly fruity fanbase. that's better than a lot of fanbases get. that i'm sure of.
