between Dread continuing from a game on GBA (and really every game prior to that too) and Prime 4 continuing from 2 games on GameCube and Original DS, Metroid has the longest narrative endurance of any multi-creator series I've ever seen. Threads left in stasis decades ago when the series was shelved picked right back up once development resumes—an entire generation of developers later—like nothing ever happened

no stop bc if milo gets his way, the zombies franchise is literally going to continue until the day he dies

Fave J/C moment?? 👀

Whoa Nelly! No but o'course I adore all the choice moments where they hold each other's gazes, touch each other (hehe RESPECTFULLY OF COURSE), flash blisteringly-large smiles, or have dinner together- They're all awesome buuuut I can't really pick a favourite! So hard! I'm a weirdo and I latch onto things like when they both step into frame, cooperating in sync, without saying a word. The way they are conveyed, particularly in regard to their shapes within the screen, signify trust, comfort and a feeling of unity; and when they stand together I know everyone is on board.

^^^^^ SIGHhhh SO PRETTY I yearn over their relationship a lot, regardless of romance or not. Ideally, I'd like them to get together, but sometimes that doesn't unfold rapidly or without turbulence. Relationships demand respect, trust and friendship. They have those qualities and more, and those boundaries are at times challenged, and I think that makes them more complex and realistic.

dont tell me i have an unhealthy parasocial relationship with fictional characters when masami itou is literally frolicking in the fields bringing figurines on set and calling it "adachybaby-chan" and writing a physical birthday letter to his anime idol boy son calling him "most beautiful cat in the world" and even signing it as his "papa"

maybe it's to maintain a sense of tension & turmoil that would eventually reach an explosive peak, a sense of tug-of-war, a back-and-forth to hammer home the ideals they want to deliver and for the viewers to chew on, but although these arguments regarding hiroshi & his stance as a man torn between his loyalty for his country & the loyalty for his Filipino friends and lover is of course important, how they write these scenes & the points they present from this week alone is getting too repetitive...? literally the argument scenes from last night & tonight between adelina & hiroshi is basically the same; the ideas were the same, the dynamics were the same: the aggressive, radical adelina, bristling rage and fear over the injustices she's seen thus far, and the cautious, inspiriting hiroshi, all hopefulness and reassurance one moment as a lover, defensiveness and sternness as a japanese soldier in another. this debate will be ever-present ofc, it is one of the series' biggest conflicts, but it is unfortunately so easy to tell when it is a.) being pulled up as a main topic to move the plot along / be a necessary conflict for character development/introspection / be the conflict to deliver the morals & messages the writers want to send to their viewers, or b.) when it is being pulled up only for the drama and filler to pass the time. like watching the characters sit down to argue for 10 minutes, do other things for the plot for 2 minutes, then sit down again to argue for the next 20 minutes. lol.

Just completed the Happiness moment from Step 3 DLC with my graphics on high 💪😎 (I went to the aquarium on a field trip)

it's always kind of a weird situation when you dislike something but it's not because it's bad, so it feels like it's difficult to explain why you don't like it.

i really dislike Ace Attorney 4, just. based on vibes alone. and i sound like a crazy person every time i try to explain it KRKFK

i simply don't like it. but i see why people like it, too. i respect how bold it was with the direction it wished to take the series. it didn't want to rest on its laurels and tried a new angle for the games. it just didn't work for me. i love DD and SOJ, they're my favorite games in the series, but they play way too safe after the mixed reaction to AA4 and it really undermined Apollo's character, and the other characters tbh.

i don't really care about most of the plot points set up in AA4 so it doesn't actually bother me, but i see on an objective level that it's fucking absurd that they dropped everything except for like, the dark age law stuff and if i was an AA fan experiencing DD and SOJ as they came out i'd be kinda pissed they just ignored everything AA4 set up.

it's just profoundly, deeply not for me. and i'm kinda relieved the rest of the trilogy didn't follow in its footsteps. i guess that's all i should have to say.

It’s almost their time of year ft. some redraws (Patreon)

Chains of Heart ep 3

This re-watch really was an excellent idea. I'm understanding who people are and what they're up to much more this second time round. And the colours are so much more obvious! I'm feeling much more confident after ep 3 that Din = green, Lue = red, and Ken = blue (my confidence is helped by @respectthepetty's agreement 💪🏼 Thank you!).

I also think, when used on others or in the lighting, green = a connection to Din/Lue often with high drama, red = high emotions/passion/danger/revenge, and blue...well blue lighting hasn't been used much...but purple has...and more on that below.

As with the previous ep, we start ep 3 off where we left off in ep 2 - with high stakes drama at the temple and Khun Tee (Lue) rushing away from the fight in the green lit temple (with blue and red banners).

In the hotel room - the room that Din and Ken stayed in together - there is so. much. green.

As well as a small blue lamp - Ken's trapped in the memory of him and Din. And even the outside of the room has a blueish tinge to the green. It's their place.

Ken literally bathes in Din's green with either their passion or Lue's presence or Ken's desire for revenge (the red) looming over him (whichever way you want to interpret that - again I'd love to know what these say) and is surrounded by these colours after the bath.

As Ken reminisces/dreams about his time there with Din, they arrive in the room full of their passion but quickly get consumed by the green.

The morning after dreaming about their steamy night in green, Ken dons another green suit for the trip to the police station to identify the men involved in Din's death (but which gets interrupted by the car crash and Lue's subsequent rescue). Notice the red buttons on Ken's jacket! Payu is showing his support of Ken in the blue (also with small red details) and Hin has all three colours in his shirt.

More reminiscing of sexy times and I think this was their first time and maybe Din's confession (??), so it's not surprising that Din's in Ken's blue in a room with a green hue and red curtains. The purple light being a mix of the blue and red.

Later, when they both sign their names on the picture on the wall - with a green pencil! - these colours are still prominent around them.

I LOVED Sai coming into the room in the present day in a purple top - yet another reminder of Din and their time together in that room.

I'm not quite sure what to make of the below scene and the reds and blues. If we're thinking of red as revenge then I can interpret both Ingpha and Din's mum's red as them both wanting to get what they desire - the former needs his crimes to stay hidden and will do all he can to enable that, and the latter wants someone to pay for what they did to her son. With the blue, I mentioned in my ep 1 post that blue on characters might signify that they're hiding or masking something...maybe that's the case here with Ingpha and Ae (it looks like the design on her shirt is a dark blue). Both have much to hide. With Din's mum, her blue is in support of Ken though. One hopes.

And then we come to the end of the ep and Ken is completely encased Din's world...but lo, in comes Din Lue!

Both are wearing a bit of Ken's blue but - and I don't know how I missed this the first time round (yes I do, I was SO confused by the plot) - they're complete opposites...or perfectly complementing each other. Ken has a blue shirt under a black suit and Lue has a blue jacket over a black shirt and trousers. They even have opposite colour shoes - black and white.

And I swear Ken's shoes look like they have a burgundy stripe on the back.

This show really is something!
