#it's always bad okay

[honeyflower-bellybower]

so uhm just finished Trigun stampede and I haven't really read/seen any opinion about it but I'll vomit my own here cause I have lots of thoughts and I'm so mad

so number one will be the soundtrack cause holy shit. holy shit. this is all. i- holy shit.

number two will be the 3D animation cause everyone was talking about it and. well. it's great, sure, but tbh it still sucks for me. i'm sorry, it's cool to see, but it looks like a videogame and the voices are off. it's just weird.

number three is about Wolfwood. So. Let's talk. He's a cool character. The cool character™. But what the heck is his role really. What does he DO. He has his own story which is totally independent from Vash and when Livio's stuff is over he just becomes background. They let you believe he's a traitor and will at some point betray Vash and the others but it just doesn't happen. His character is the same for the whole time. Like, why did you even throw him in.

not really a point but the journalists are pretty weak characters too. They literally just tag along (for no good reason really) and you can't tell me in the end it was Meryl who brought Vash back cause their relationship was nonexistent.

the most important thing. Nai was right. okay? okay. human destroyed one planet by abusing its resources and they are doing it again. Plants have been enslaved for more than a century and awful things have been done to them. He wants to save his kind and the only way (proved true by Earth's destiny) is killing the humans. Meryl is just egoist by not accepting this, but comprehensible. from Vash's point of view?? just doesn't make sense. Why is he not mad? and what is his solution to his kind's abuse? sitting and waiting? really?

also a small parenthesis I am obsessed with villains playing piano and Nai's tunes were fucking majestic.

this is not a real critique, but I think Nai's character would have hit that much harder if they hadn't made him a total villain. The villainous laugh, the crazy ass eyes and everything. If they'd made his side relatable (which it still is, but if they'd shown it as such). If they'd made him a caring (perhaps by wrong ways, crossing every line) brother. If they'd shown his pain more and his madness less.

Last. the finale. what the heck dude? vash tried to sacrifice himself in order to save the city and failed. he is responsible (not really but you know) for those deaths. and the typically save-ass, fake-shock, most-hated memory loss finale?? really? it essentially kills the purpose bond to his final words to his brother. he didn't "keep running when they hated him", unless you consider memory loss as a psychological escaping mechanism (which, being subconscious and involuntary, still doesn't comply). this is simply not a conclusion of any arc at all. watch me being bitter about it for months to go.

oh i forgot all hail Matsuoka Yoshitsugu for he was a miracle in this

Soft sleepy affectionate Jason Todd is good for the soul:

**

Just standing in the kitchen, half asleep in the early morning, sunlight catching the curve of your mouth on a yawn and a warm, thick pair of arms circling your waist from behind, a forehead pressed into your back.

There’s hardly any sound, the tick of a clock in the background, a soft little exhale into the back of your shirt. Fingers warm and sly sneaking up under your pyjamas in search of skin. Palms splayed over your tummy, a content mumble echoing in the space between sleep and awake; caught in a dream.

Leaning forwards into the counters edge to make a cup of something warm and sweet and being tugged back into place with a tired growl, no real choice other than settling into place and letting Jason hold you close, swaying slightly with how drowsy he is. A quiet, whining grumble of your name when you move again.

Hopping up on the kitchen counter and tugging him in close between your parted knees, his head tucking into the warm space where your shoulder meets your neck. Your fingers sweeping through his tangled hair, down his neck, across his shoulders. Feet locked at the ankle around his hips, not willing to let him pull out of reach.

Sliding back into bed with a warm drink and Jason clinging at your side, legs tangling together when he nudges yours apart with a knee. Playing with the hair at the nape of his neck and listening to him drop back off into sleep, a gentle, quiet slur of “I love you” the last coherent thing you get out of his mouth for the next few hours.

Just…Jason being soft and a little needy and feeling safe enough to trust you to lead whilst he slots into that tired space where you’re only half aware of what’s happening outside your partner being close and warm.

imagine creating a show that consistently shows a group of very damaged people who struggle to fit in with “normal” society, the consistent message of which is that life is worth EVERYTHING, that pushing forward in the face of unspeakable horrors and against seemingly impossible fates is worth it BECAUSE life and love and peace are priceless. and then ending that show by saying “the problem was actually that these weirdo fuckups Exist. and actually they cosmically deserve to be murdered and never should have been allowed to experience joy and happiness and peace or to move forward because they are fundamentally Bad.” imagine.

friendship so strong it grants you a sixth level spell slot. I have words to say.

First off, I love ur art so much. Ur style is so amazing and the stories u come up with are so fun (or sad) and I think they're incredible.

Second, Law and Luffy at the pool headcanon bc it's over 100 degrees where I am rn. Luffy cannonballs in before they even set up their chairs and Law just stares at him. He refuses to get in, so Luffy has to surprise him and push him in. He's mad, but then Luffy laughs and all is forgiven because he is the sucker for Luffy's laugh/smile.

Ahhh hello!! Tysm for the kind words! 😭❤️ funny story it is ALSO 100 degrees where I am and I have spent today recovering from dehydration and heat exhaustion 🫠🫠

Every time Cale uses an ancient power and then gets confused when people react in worry I laugh and want to shake him because Cale, CALE YOU NEVER EXPLAIN WHY YOU'RE VOMITING BLOOD.

And here's the thing, vomitting blood, regardles of colour is a sign of serious internal problems, and you know what signs and symptoms you should definitely watch out for afterwards?

Dizziness, especially after standing.

Rapid, shallow breathing.

Or other signs of shock.

So everyone around him makes the very valid assumption the Cale using an ancient power = severe internal bleeding and then Cale goes and usually displays some symptoms of shock (I.E shaky limbs, dizziness, weakness in limbs) and just never explains that he's actually fine. Instead, he tries to get up and keep moving unless he's already fainted.

OF COURSE THEY'RE FREAKING OUT CALE! They think you need serious medical attention and you keep refusing to see a healer or a doctor! (Yes we know you don't want them figuring out how many powers you have and that they can't do anything anyways, but your friends don't!)

Since we don't see what the others are doing every time Cale falls into a coma as a response, I imagine that they're all frantic, trying to figure out what went wrong, how injured he is and how to get him the proper medical care. And then Cale wakes up and is just confused as to why they made it such a big deal.

Like Cale, please, for at least the first few times, they probably thought you were DYING.

5am thoughts: on the one hand, hotd expects its viewers to be smart enough to magically realize that s2 took place over the course of six months, pick up on the subtlest most nothing clues to deduce that laenor died offscreen, that rhaenyra had a religious reawakening to the gods of old valyria offscreen, that aemond went from devastation at becoming a kinslayer to gleefully burning entire regions of his kingdom as prince regent, and that alicent, who once stepped in front of a dragon for her son, is now willing to see him publicly beheaded at rhaenyra's earliest convenience, among a score of other things, but also dumb enough to not nitpick inconsistent timelines, geographical errors, and abrupt episode-to-episode changes in the characters.

It’s actually insane that the rivals to friends or enemies to lovers trope can be summed up perfectly by Charles Leclerc talking about Max Verstappen.

“Memories that are less good but became really good with time”.

That’s it. That’s the trope.
