the funniest 40 seconds if not because of it starting because of alscher and megna accidentally bodying a guy together looney tunes styles to which davies takes it upon himself to the muscle of the group to push a cane out of the crease TO WHICH ALSO kai immediately sees coming because its davies and boxes out another cane from joining in so davies doesnt get his ass beat
and of course that means dad comes to the rescue (rip to leonard trying to hold down the line behind davies while everyone else makes sure davies doesnt get jumped as well AS HE STILL TRIES TO ENGAGE)
knighter of course can only laugh at whatever the hell just happened
florida panthers @ carolina hurricanes | 9.27.24
a pantr starting a scrum and maffhew or gadjo arent playing? davies. always.
#josh davies#jaycob megna#marek alscher#kai schwindt#john leonard#spencer knight#florida panthers#2425#preseason#if youd like to know the ages on the ice its three 20 year olds. a 23 year old. a 26 year old. and man whos 31#can you guess whos 31. no guess. ill wait.#WHO DECIDED TO PUT MEGNA OUT WITH A BUNCH OF BABIES THIS IS SO#it kills me everyone is trying to make sure davies doesnt get hurt and this fucking kid is still trying to fight#oh ive seen this story before#i think a lot about megna immediately getting in front of davies#hi dad!#a tired gruff dad and his feisty son#davies is just a feral purse dog to me#like why are you doing so much 😭😭😭😭#physicality is fun but sweetheart 😭😭😭#somehow someway davies has gotten a penalty yet for all the shit stirring hes been doing lmao#very obsessed with whatever happened here ill be real

Ok so these designs are cute as hell, the Internet is just mean
I have too many thoughts about a game I still need to watch
#goodbye volcano high#i dont have the money to buy it but god i need to watch a playthrough when i have time it's so interesting to me#like; the theme of 'yeah we're going die but that doesn't mean we can enjoy what time we have left' sounds amazing to me love that#its so funny i was actually watching a review of it that was basically 'this game sucks and here's why'#and then it just started listing off shit like- 'the characters designs are pastel they're nonbinary you die no matter what'#and then my neurons just went off and went '👁️👁️ oh! sounds amazing i want to see more'#fuck yeah pastel nonbinary dinosaurs lets go#well i think its just fang thats nonbinary and then two other trans characters#i saw a cutscene! and it was about the experiences of being an apart of a family as sec-gen immigrant and trans-#and i thought that was cool as hell dont recall ever seeing that in any of thr arts ive seen before (but there's lots of art out there!)#heard it got some glitches tho (havent looked in depth of what those glitches are) hopefully it got patched out#also im so fucking pissed i saw the gator game before i saw this 😮💨 (context; apparently made by people who made a fangame where they#the mc of this game a datable side character and they only have a happy ending if they detransition? which fucking yikes😬)#i saw people say 'oh but they did it empathetically' like how the fuck is taking a canon nb character and making them only happy through#detransitioning empathetic that sounds super fucking shitty and gross#i think a character that detransitions can be done and would be interesting to see- but this just reeks of people being transphobic for real#oh also purple dino has a slug or worm or something apparently! seems cute! just a lil thing#apparently its a rhythm game; listened to some of the songs and it sounded good! sadly i suck at rhythm games#but apparently failing doesn't affect the story? kinda wish it would but honestly better for me lol-#pink one and fang end up dating i believe- from what i saw pink is like- soft spoken artist? dunno if accurate but she's cute#all the characters are cute just look at them!!! awesome#also they have to just continue school like normal before they die and honestly thats so real#also saw people dislike the fact you dont see the characters actual die or the meteor#which is ??? dunno i just think some things are better left implied than shown-#anyways man i keep trying to find neat stuff about the game and all i see is people bitchin about it or praising the shit fan on instead 😔#man if i had two nickles for a time i grew to become obsessed with a media only for loads of people to hate id have two nickles#first nickle is kat elliot she's such a cool character Internet wasn't ready for her#also yes i saw obsessed i can just tell this is something ill go bonkers for#i mean god look how much text is in my tags for this already! and i still need to see the game in it's fullness!#im sure there's other cool shit

If i had a nickel every time i watched an anime where Shun'ichi Toki voiced a character and sung either the opening or ending song for it, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but interesting that it happened twice
#prince's talk tag#first it was midnight occult civil servants and now seventh time loop#im sure this has happened in other animes but these are the only two ive seen so far where it happens#ive actually wanted to watch the latter for a while now bc 1) it's a time loop tho while the heroine has looped 7 times now#the story takes place only in the 7th loop we only hear about her other loops when its important to the story#like how she learned to trade and make medicine or lockpick#2) i did hear Toki played the love interest's retainer so i get to hear hos voice quite a bit#3) bc they use blue for black hair in this anime and the heroine had pink hair#i was pretending this was a kaito and luka au of sorts when i only knew the anime from gifs#but when i started watching and the opening theme started playing i was like '!!!!!!! oh!!!!!!!!!!'#and then i remembered seeing the song on his YouTube channel bc im subscribed but didnt know it was for this anime#its a nice song i like it#if there are other animes like this where he does a song and a character lmk i love Shunichi Toki#yes it is partially bc he voices rui but i thought he had a nice voice before then#bc i liked his performance in midnight occult (he really was the highlight of that anime its so mid otherwise)

listings for old sonic figures are like RARE SONIC ACTION FIGURE 70 DOLLARS and its ear is broken off and its missing a leg and is just overall in the shittiest condition youve ever seen in your life. and its not even that rare
#ive noticed werehog figures specifically are often victims of the missing ears thing#the amount of people ive seen charging like 60+ dollars for a werehog with no ears is ridiculous#i mean i already have a werehog but its the mini figure and ive always kinda wanted a full sized one too#but ive never seen one thats in good condition AND reasonably priced#the sonic and the black knight toys are also big dream figures of mine but again.#can never find any that are in good condition and reasonably priced#its either broken or costs like 500 dollars. and the few exceptions ive seen were quickly taken before i could get to them#sad !#the satbk figures might actually be on the rarer side though i definitely dont see new listings for them as often#and its usually lancelot. or sometimes sonic or excalibur sonic. ive only seen galahad like 2 or 3 times max#i think galahad was kinda a weird choice for tbh like hes not even in the actual story mode#i feel like gawain or percival would ahve made more sense#oh i just saw someone selling a recent super shadow figure for like 130 dollars i think they should explode actually

guy who is frightened and perhaps afraid:
#starting my masters in like a month and idk. im kinda nervous#ill be running my own project instead of being an undergrad being ordered around in the lab. and im deeply unorganised#idk i just worry that im mega incompetent and everyone around me will realise that then. classic imposter syndrome ig#i dont feel like any of my academic achievements last year were legit#idk. im looking forward to starting bc i need to do Something otherwise my brain just worries about Bull Shit#but idk ig maybe i worry ill have a shit time ive seen all the academia horror stories. bleh#i think i just always am like “oh this is the year itll all come crashing down and ill just be revealed to have fluked everything”#idk#fuck it we ball. I am looking forward to it i was like this before undergrad tho!#and if academia sucks i can just do something else like im doing a masters and not a phd for a reason#i should make a science sideblog maybe to liveblog my masters itd be fun.

I legit just walked outside to show my parents some cool photography and that spiraled into an hour long conversation about horror movies & psychological horror
#watermelons talks#the one trait that runs in the family: yapping about horror movies#melondad actually made a really good point like yeah without the horror & gore aspects saw is really goofy at times BUT ALSO#there's still lots of psychological aspects in it as well which is VERY intriguing#i love yapping and i love hearing people yap alright of course ive gotta let him cook#oh yeah then we yapped about serial killers#then i got a bunch of scar stories from him#one time he accidentally hit me in the eye with a yellow frisbee right before picture day#shortly after i dropped a wrench on his eye as he was working on a car. the bone actually like calloused and caused a permanent bruise next#to his eye#sorry melondad but it was only fair❤️❤️ /silly /j#moving on. im old enough to know parent lore now and am slightly concerned about the horrors melondad has seen#anyways gn chat <3333

I don't even think ATLUS realizes that the Female Protagonist is popular and if they do they don't know WHY
You get to have social links with the male party members and Ryoji (Junpei's social link is one of the best), you get to choose your Velvet Room attendant, you get to save Shinjiro, you get two fan favorite characters, Saori and Rio, Yukari misgenders femc and Fuuka misgenders Theo, every female party member and Elizabeth have a bisexual awakening because of femc
And then in FES the Answer gives us AMAZING character development for Yukari Aigis and Mitsuru plus it introduces an underrated character that Atlus has ignored ever since in Metis
So why not have both. Baffling.
Yeah it is kinda like crazy that they could literally make everyone happy by just combining portable and fes into this upcoming remake and add the new stuff they want to add but ig that's just not what they wanted to do 😫
Reading that article and the ign one it seems that they're really bent on remaking the persona 3 experience as opposed to like idk make a definitive edition to the game (which is what most p3 fans want). There's not really much we can say there because I suppose from like an "artistic" point of view so to speak they chose to bring the original p3 experience (well fes' journey) to newer audiences. As I said before there's absolutely nothing wrong with that HOWEVER I do think that adding the extra content from fes and portable would have served that goal way better than just... remaking p3. As you said both the answer and portable add much more dimension to the story and characters of p3 so by essentially ignoring that not only are you doing the game a disservice (im like 90% sure portable is canon and 100% sure the answer is canon) but it's also gonna confuse new fans when we start talking about Metis or Erebus or idk what actually happened in the final battle of p3.
Unless of course Atlus is planning on retconning the answer and portable. Which... wouldn't be great. But hey at this point I am curious as to see what they're gonna do but I'll say it rn none of the remake stuff will be canon in my eyes.
#asks#latenitewaffles#koopa bro#i hope what im saying makes sense#i suppose what im trying to say is that they have a vision for p3 and its not one a lot of p3 fans seem to agree with#at least from what ive seen#at this stage i'm genuinely curious to see what they do#it really does feel like they're gonna p5ify the game if you get what i mean#not just in graphics style because lets be honest that was inevitable#it might not necessarily be all bad but my hopes are low#also i havent mentioned this yet but the fact they ported portable over to like steam switch what have you confirms to me that atlus is jus#way too lazy to remake portable#they really cant be bothered to make a femc model and do her story properly#they're either just gonna be lazy fr and not do it or come out with another game in a few years called like p3 reload female edition or som#absolute bullshit 💀💀💀💀💀💀#but either way as i said before im not tryna make atlus' business descisions for them they obvs know what they're doing#i know i said i wouldnt talk about it more and after this i wont but i do think its like an interesting point they bring up in the intervie#i have a fear about them retconning the answer but i'll keep that to myself cause i dont want to accidentally speak that into existence#and besides atlus wouldn't be that dumb surely#oh one last thing the fandom is quite divided over femc to be fair so that could also be a factor

I started reading Billy Bat manga by Urasawa Naoki (u may know him as the guy who did Monster) and jesus christ its wild. Absolute experience. Judas and Jesus are in it, so are ninjas, so is lee harvey oswald (technically at least 3), theres a bat thats satire about how evil mickey mouse and disney are, there's lying cartoons galore, there's the civil rights movement, the oppressivr terror of the ku klux klan and the structural damage of segregation and fucked up laws, and the pervasiveness of advertising and the coca cola company ("golden cola") there's real events sprinkled with gratuitious fictional shit about manipulative God Billy Bat (or perhaps "administrator/guide to the human race"), a scroll that could control the world, Fake walt disney has hired killers, the looming brutality of imperialism and corporations buying out poorer areas, killing in other countries and breaking laws and whatever else is needed to acquire what they want, there's a cartoon dog kennedy assasination, a baby kevin inherits the powers of an older kevin, there's ninjas and priests, there's a small town out west full of cowboy larpers who are this comic artists biggest fan club, a secret agent Smith with a heart of gold (one hopes), a teenager named jackie whos seeing visions, there's a good and evil fake "mickey mouse" bat but frankly theyre probqbly both evil cause either way they lie and manipulate to get people to do what they want, judas cameos not only in his jesus arc but as a little kiddo, and like. Im not even halfway done. Einstein JUST showed up.
#rant#billy bat#its. an experience ill say that. its wild and im kind of floored it got published#it makes a lot of good points but its also ultimately a long winding Batshit Wild Bat Cartoon-as-God MYSTERY thriller#so its like. oh you learn about the pains of cowardice. the cruelties of corporations.#the way society doesnt value a whores life as you cry for her because she was wondetful. the way being just is hard#its hard to be brave and dangerous but it uas to be done. the vile dangers of advertizing and capitalism and profit over human life.#but then also. theres a fucking bat talking to a girl in her college class lol#its an interesting perspective in a way also cause like...#1 a lot of comic artists just full on would not touch these elements in their plots at all. and while ive seen these topics in stories#before. tjis is the most Pointed Disney/governments/corporations critique ive seen in comics. since like. its literally fake disney#ajd real ass historical figures and govts getting critiqued.#then 2 in japanese manga i havent seen foreign events covered much. and its interesting to see the perspective of#world events and america from this author. and his choice to make the protagonists who he did: a japanese american whos born american#and was in the allies as a translator. part of the US occupation when he initially visits japan.#the japanese mangaka whos older than ww2. the white upper class (truly upper class) coca cola#dynasty equivalent inheritor. a lower class black woman factory worker from florida whos outspoken and a leader and#braver than her husband. their kiddo kevin whos the most important person in the world worth saving. jackie the japanese american teen girl#eho grew up Loving fake disney and is in college. her dad the taxi driver who through other people#eventhally got the courage to go reunite with his wife and daughter jackie who left him.#(oh also a european priest and JUDAS and a ninja)#its just like. the author worked hard to put what feels like a japanese and american perspective and the Many ways those overlap and Dont#into this. as well as a variety of upper class and lower class characters. the rich fake walt disney and the poor bat town mayor and elder#who get killed for standing in the way of a corporations dreams.#jackie kennedy and the sweet girl who saved cartoonist Kevin and worked the street.#the rich dynasty inheritor of golden cola and his working class wife. how it all falls away in the deep soutj with pther lines#society draws. the poor student jackie versus the other protagonists witj a job#how kevin yamagata has not much connection to japan except a fondness for his parents. while jackie is even more#culturally removed (having never even visited japan) but her family still has their heritage of stories and places they miss and#want to visit and traditions her dad still regulalry discusses.

i still have yet to see the new hbomb but for anyone who's watched it now and wants more this is not the first time he's covered this kind of thing, "here's three stories about youtube plagiarism" is from 6 years ago on the same subject and is still very good
#and also im realizing from what ive had spoiled sounds like he used as the blueprint for this one#i.e. 'two seemingly random examples to give you a false sense of security then a surprise important third thats the secret real subject#of the video and the rest was simply getting you in the mood so to speak'#also for anyone wanting to see him talk more about being Not Straight: his video on the outsiders is very good even#if you like me have not seen it or read any lovecraft#oh my god wait what if he wanted to make a plagiarism joke but wouldve felt too bad doing it to someone else so he just.#''plagiarized'' his own video💀💀#cause i remember in the three stories one he talked about literally wanting to do that like copy someone else's format as a joke#(then immediately fess up and go 'see that sucks' dw) but ended up not bc he felt like even as an obvious joke that was a shitty thing to#do to someone else#im just saying he had both motive and means#im gonna have to rewatch the three youtube stories one right before i watch the new one to make sure its fresh in my#mind and compare because if he did that would be THE funniest possible way to scratch that itch

God I could and should write a whole fucking book by the end of this life here on Lev and his symbols
ill write it then burn it before anyone else gets a copy. or i wont. im supposed to be helping him this incarnation here to get a better anchor in this plane so maybe it would help more than itd be weird - im just getting from him the energy of "yeah no people already effectively have these things, people on my plane already know me inside and out to an extensive degree, may as well have it here too" you know. fair
#ramblings //#ugh god i love his tone saying that tho. i kept trying to prod to see if it was a ''ugh yeah people know me inside and out and Yes Its#Invasive But -'' but no#oh my god man. his like energy towards his people is..... BEFORE I SAY THIS#I HOPE YOU ALL KNOW IM ANTI PROPAGANDA. the biggest reason i dont work with Lu and others is bc theres this tendency to#be like ''we're darkness but also light! we're teachers we're enlightened we're pure in our own way and the kings are here to#teach you how to empower yourselves and they love all worshipers and they reject all tyrannical authority and they are the good guys#against the chrxstian god who (insert specific atrocity that actually was committed by the kings not the 'chrxstian god' - and#''demons'' should KNOW that because it was AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE WAR so either theyre LYING orrrrr) and we're actually#really down to earth and more holy than anyone else bc we're enlightened - i mean uh uh no wait that contradicts us being#against the love and light style of enlightenment chasing'' like. i will tell you that my boss has massacred a lot of people i will tell yo#im anti monarchy and i dont believe that the kings' peoples are any better than 'angels' and i will tell you a lot of innocents on both#sides have been lost bc of royalty and rich families the kings are directly tied to#so i hope you know that when i say the way lev treats his people in his mind is..... holy shit#i pick apart everything he does. ive seen sides of him that are dark af (and i love him for them lmfao) but as soon as his people are#involved... have you ever been w someone getting hot and bothered and a kid walks in that you thought was sleeping and you just switch#completely into parent mode like. he'll have complex fictions w me helping me write stories about corrupt monarchies and shit#and then no. he is like. hes very good at mindset switching and going immediately into different faces but i swear#his ''i am a king and a king is a head of a mass of people - a king is a servant to his people'' mode is like. impenetrable#he is so. fucking intensely single-minded and trained to be a king unlike anyone else. anyway what was i talking about#OH YEAH. his tone w what i wrote in the post. was so switched into that mode of ''my viscera is theirs to eat as Im splayed on their table#and this is divine ruling. this is my purpose with them'' type shit. PURE thought. there is no other energy i can find in it other than#pure ''this is my job and i do it''. pure as in distilled. a pure tone like a sine wave played on a synth as opposed to a string plucked#leviathan //#ive. im nervous about saying the shit ive said here lmfao but ive had his OK before to say it ALSO. AS I SAID. theres no way his people#dont know the massacre was done by the kings lmfao. like. yall were involved. and also you all have to know that one of the#people that pretends to be the christian god is. two of the kings actually and since lev commonly appears to people and lets them#decide who he is bc hes never arsed making a show of Being Leviathan and whatnot im sure hes been called God plenty of times#too but like. cmon. I dont know who started the ''oh the uh the invading heaven and killing off half the population was the#chrxstian god'' rumour but i was first exposed to it through lu and (his wife) worshipers so yall get the blame - that said...

watching the sopranos rn (first time eva) and im 3 episodes into s4 which my dad told me is where it starts to really pick up. hey its a different show, like this is a different programme altogether
#everything is entirely different#it was 3 ep to season long arcs before. occasionally peppered with ep long issues#but typically most scenes contributed to long themes. there was no A B plot structure (A plot is the plot of the episode. B plot is the over#all plot of a season)#and everything remained within the mafia. and fairly self-contained#suddenly we've got heavily self-contained episodes with a huge focus on the A plot with little to no carry-over into the next#like it was a story about the terror of growing up to become a mafia leader. then the SA episode. then i dont remember what the last one was#and there are longer arcs bubbling in the background#crazy. its much more exciting and satisfying#interestingly one of the main writers for the sopranos went on to make madmen which ive already seen#and they also had a major upheaval of the exact same type in season 4. where the stakes were suddenly and dramatically upped#i didnt like it in madmen because i enjoyed its vintage feel#but i got used to it eventually#also im really impressed with how they write tony soprano. i go through wildly hating him to loving him within a single ep#which makes me wonder what the fuck went wrong with don draper. i hated that man from start to end#how do u write mr soprano and then fuck up draper that bad#oh well#if anyone actually read all this do u want to go out for a date#or if uve seen either of these pls tell me ur thoughts

#11 days to the leaving and only now am i drawing up what all i need to study#chronologically it makes sense to leave latin n music to the last bcos i have like a whole week after history to study for just them#and before that all of my exams are basically in the same week with allowance for the weekend#so i should focus on eng n maths particularly#n then bio and irish and history#but like. my history latin n music teachers r the only ones assigning work. for the exams i have the most time for. lol#like i can ignore the history n music teachers for the most part but like my classes w my latin teacher r one on one i CANNOT brush that of#so im here studying me fucking virgil ig instead of figuring out what im doing w the comparative#sigh. ok priorities ill make up that list of shit i gotta do for each subject#gotta suss out which movie im watching for eng and what poems n stories im studying for irish n what modules im doing for history! lol!#can u tell ive not been paying attention for like. 4 months.#remember kids: cramming is a cool and fun thing to do <- is in a pit#when the leaving cert ends i am going into my room never to be seen again for like a week.#and im getting me mam to buy me something for it. maybe a binder if i come out to her by then#oh well thats future talk. for now. figure out what to study. as ive already said twice#im playinh kh bgm to indulge in the hyperfocus while still getting study done n its kinda working#but mostly i just wanna play kh again...#i havent wrapped up the hades cup n i wanna restart com bcos i think i might know how it works better now#watched a one card deck challenge for recom and its the remake so some shits different but like. i get it now maybe#if nothing else gba com looks rlly rlly cute. the pixel art <£

as it actually plays out in story its nothing but tragic and fucked up but in the abstract it is very funny how puccis whole character arc is that he accidentally causes a series of events leading to a single persons death and that ruins his life and brain forever but he deals with that by becoming a repeat murderer. and at no point does he have like a ”hm. wait a second” moment. just very funny to be a priest with incredible intelligence but absolutely no wisdom or self reflection abilities
#ive talked about it before too that like his lack of self reflection and delusion about his ’’altruism’’ is like a pretty blatant metaphor#for the catholic church as a whole obviously. but like on an individual character level it is very funny to make a character whos like#personality wise cold and calculating and obsessed with math and shit. like a misquided evil scientist trope. but you take that personality#and give it to what is very much contemporarily seen as the polae opposite of a scientific person#oh and the funniest part is that someone literally points all that out in story kinda like that dude in the beginning of c moon arc who#tired to shoot his shot with pucci and was like OH isnt it pretty funny that a priest is visiting a space center haha? and pucci was just#like shut the fuck up#jojo#pucci posting

I have obtained a new oc and in the process I've already signed myself up for needing to make at least 3 new ocs for his story which he now has despite me initially Intending for him to be a side character for a different side character to hang out with. My townhouse has over 200 characters on it.
#rat rambles#oc posting#he doesn't have an official name yet but he is my silly billy and I love him#also take every him with an asterisk again he's like super new (I just got him today)#although several elements of his story so far have been things Ive been wanting to do for a while so thats a part of why I have so many#ideas for him already since its some stuff I've been wanting to play around with for a while#the real reason he has a chokehold on me rn is that I tripped and made him my 500 thousanth character with identity issues#I <3 characters with a fucked up relationship with their sense of self and what it even means to be themself#oh hes also a magic cat world character because thats what like 90% of my ocs are from at this point lol#and another goop related guy but this time not directly related to every other goop guy#he doesnt interact with any of them or even know most of them exist#long story short hes a robot who used to not be a robot but remembers nothing abt his life before he turned himself into a robot#all he has as reference is a mostly ruined journal his past self kept that is almost entirely unreadable due to it getting soaked in goop#he knows that this was self inflicted and his approximate age but that's abt it in terms of useful information#early story is mostly just him traveling alone trying to see if anyone nearby knows who he is but after going through like 5 or so towns he#starts to get more worried and upset about the whole situation and starts trying to look into some different missing person reports in#hopes that he can find one of himself#he runs out of the savings he had on him pretty quickly though so he had to figure out how to stay afloat while doing his research#'luckily' he meets a man while looking into one case he found who was willing to let him stick around at his place while looking into it#this guy had some investment in these dissapearances because he suspected that they related to his father and hoped to find any sort of#window in what he was up to since he hadnt seen him since he ran away at around 17#spoilers his dad is cake this is still connected to cake nonsense because everything in this world fucking does but the main boy himself#actually has no ties to cake or his activities so thats smth at least#but yeah long story short things get. real bad for my boy after the first few months of staying at this guy's place.#yknow how risa in the future was often used as a weapon of war using some unstable chemicals? yeah guess where that started.#mr daddy issue haver over here may understand that his dad is a bad person but evidently that doesnt stop him from being not much better#currently Im planning on having main boy escape eventually and get stuck in the non magic world where he meets april but that could change#it depends on if I want him to interact with the other stories going on at all or not#I probably wont but I would like to leave myself some wiggle room to let him meet more side characters#like (looks with big sad wet eyes) ginger maybe? please? please april? let me see your sister? that you havent seen in years? please?

Okay one veeery small hater moment from me but it isn't really much of a hater moment but more of a disappointment irritation moment for a manwha genre that I've been chillin deep into it's rabbit hole, aka Otome Isekai (shortened to oi) is when I found this manwha that I already forgot the title of out of pure irritation that I somehow just blacked it out. The premise was basically like: I got trapped in a dating sim I played in my past life for 3 years when my first playthrough turned out a fail and I got sent back to the past to retry until I get a good ending for the character I possessed that's a side character of the game. And I'm so tired of failing, I don't need love to get my happy ending!
Like-- from the description alone it was pretty generic. And I, being the veteran that I am with generic oi manwha, already Knew what I'm about to get once I go in there, but I was like: "Maaaybe it'll turn out okay, I should check the comments." And there was a TON of comments with 4-5 star ratings, all of em praising the writing and everything and sayin that "it's far better than what the description says," so I was like: Oh okay that's good then! Time to check!
So I read through chapter 1, what the fuck is going on. The description made the story seem more interesting ngl, like I thought the fl has been going at it for 3 years with how it was worded, like she's just been met with several failures cuz of how the actual description made it seem how tired she's been but no. The story starts with her SECOND PLAYTHROUGH. So I'm like: "??? Maybe this is just the prologue" so I kept going until chapter 2.
What The Fuck Is Going On. The description also made it seem that she won't be going after any of the guys btw but by the end of chapter 1 and the start of chapter 2, she's already thinking of going after ANOTHER guy to achieve her happy ending and I'm like: "HUUUH???" cuz apparently the first guy she wanted to get together with in her first playthrough was your average "irredeemable trash" in an oi so like OKAY??? WHY WAS THE DESCRIPTION WORDED LIKE THAT.
And I remember keeping going until like-- chapter 3? chapter 4? or whatever, cuz the comments kept saying that "oh this story is soo good it's such a breath of fresh air from the other ois" And I got so blindsided by that one scene in a chapter titled "Ten Days" (hey aria how come you can remember that but not the manwha title or chapter number? cuz wait for it--) THE FL HAS BEEN UNCONSCIOUS FOR TEN DAYS!!! AND SHE JUST WALKED OUTTA BED LIKE NOTHIN!!! TEN DAYS!?!!? orz... that chapter bewildered me so much it's like it wiped the entire memory I've had of that manwha from before I read through it cuz wHAT THE FUCK???
Her family (which was the typical "neglectful family but is redeemable after getting a wake up call when the fl started ignoring em so now they're trying to make amends") was sittin by her bedside along with the typical "maid that's always on the fl's side no matter what and she's bubbly" and they were all distraught, the maid crying and everything and when the fl just stood outta bed with no consequences to the fact that she's just been laying there FOR TEN! DAYS! and everyone not even batting an eye at the fact that she's already up and at em when she's been unconscious FOR TEN DAYS!-- I'm never letting that go-- I was like: Holy stars this story is... people are blind-- And clicked outta that thing so fast it just got yeeted from my memory until I remember bout the ten days again.
#aria rants#this thing is such a specific type of irritation honestly like its just for me cuz im Like This jksfgvdsjjfvghjhb#i wouldnt even have been that irritated by that story btw if not for the fact that when i read that. it was the day before yesterday#aka the same day i was Suffering from heartburn and immense sleepiness so i needed some distraction and found that story#and i was like: well if everyone said its good then ig so cuz aint no way all these ppl are so bad at finding good stories RIGHT???#i was wrong. orz... ngl tho that story aint even That bad btw it was average at best and could be an enjoyable read if you#turn your brain off cuz oh boy... that ten days thing... its the only thing that didnt got yeeted from my memory it was such a confusing#moment it had permanently seared itself into my braincells like wtf is happening WHY IS SHE OKAY AFTER SLEEPIN FOR 10 DAYS?!!?!!?!!?#IT WASNT EVEN ADDRESSED AT ALL! the narrative didnt address it. the fl didnt address it much. NO ONE ADDRESSED IT--#all the fl thought bout at the moment ''oh this might be a consequence of going back in time. oh well :)'' and im like: GURL!?!?!?!!?!#the absolute nonchalant reaction to it baffled me so badly i just couldnt forget this thing at all like WHY#btw im an expert in oi manwha. ive seen so many horrible stories cuz oi as a genre is as diluted as any other isekai genres#so in order to find gold youre gonna have to look through SO MUCH STONE (aka the same of practically everything)#so i go into oi manwha stories not expecting much until smth bout the story latches itself into my brain for me to Like It#so ive seen my fair share of horrible storylines but this is the first ive seen where the fl gets outta bed like nothin after TEN DAYS!!!#anyway so yea this is my one irritation disappointment moment of the month all cuz im sleepy and got reminded of it again like oh stars...
