A Mediocre Review of "The Second Best Hospital in The Galaxy"

Just watched the show, it's fun!

I don't watch loads of adult animation (like I watch some shows but don't make a point of keeping up with them), so I don't know how much it leans into the common tropes of the genre, but for some reason it felt like it might?

Not story or humor wise, both were solid and didn't overly rely on boring crass jokes (not that I have an issue with crass humor per se, but you can only watch/listen to so many jokes about shitting before you get sick of it as an entire thing).

There was a lot of gratuitous... gore? I guess. Like aliens being ripped in half and reassembled, and blood and brain explosions, and w/e. Though pretty much everyone survives w/e b/c medical humor.

And a lot of freaky alien sex. Which they leaned into in a "This alien extends tentacles into the eyes of that alien and rips em out as part of sex. In a fun way." A LOT.

Which would feel gratuitous if it wasn't so much: 'We are making these aliens "hot" (for a given value thereof) and the animators are going to have a contest to see how fucked up we can make their sex stuff.'

And seeing as we (almost) never actually see a couple that are the same species and def. never have sex snippets from the same species, the animators have a lot of fun.

My mild complaint is that they set up the finale plot fairly obviously in the premiere, and returned to that plot device for at least one minute each episode, despite a lack of relevance. Kind of just to remind the viewer that it was still there.

Which would have been fine if it was a 'weekly release' but since it was dropped all at once, it felt unecessary.

But yeah, characters are fairly compelling. There is a shocking amount of character development for what it is. (though it does have the perennial question in tv shows in general but comedy ones in particular: Will the development stick/ be noticeable in the next season? Usually not)

Story is fun, visuals, particularly visual gags, are great. I recommend it provided you are not overly squeamish.

that fuckign king julien feels post makes me insane and rings an alarm in my head everytimei see it bcus. well. Theres this show called “All Hail King Julien” i dontnknow how popular it is but that guy on youtube has been making theories our of it but it truly cant compare to watching the show firsthand it is SO fucked up like soooo fucked up the first episdoe is abt king juleina uncle (uncle king julien) getting a prophecy rhat the king of the lemurs would get eaten that day so he gave the crown to the current king julien so that HE would get eaten instead so the foosa take over and like kidnap or eat most of the population but that doesnt matter. ummmmmm there was a scene where they held the captives where mort tried to seduce the foosa by being really gay and General seduction stuff its so weird like he waggled his ass right in their faceANYWAY king julien comes in and he kicks the shit out of everyone and THATS where mort got his feet thing from and he doesnt like kj himself he only likes him for his feet. and the prophecy DOES get fulfilled at the end of the ep cause one of the foosas bit him in the ass and TECHNICALLY it counts i guess? okay i only rewatched two eps in the last month so the rest of this is from long term memory so its out pf order. there was this episode where kj was stuck in this metal diaper. and like one of the main antagonists Karl constantly gets into. “homoerotic situations” with him ots rlly weird ANYWAY back to the diaper episode i forgot most of it bcus i skip it all the time but there was one part where he was bathed in bisexual lighting. and theres annother episode where he was stuck in a plane with commie monky space astronauts and i THINK the plane crashed on an island and kj flirted with the leader at one point ^-^ theres this sentient tentacle who has his own page on the madagascar wiki. um mort rlly is gay and weird he has this whole song id rather link it than explain it and yes it is canon <- look at this weirdo. um theres this thing called club moist. OH YEAH PENGUINS OF MADAGASCAR i have a billion clips saved somewhere showing that king julien and skipper are in gay love but i cant find it they flirt w each other constantly i swear and like one time at the end of an episode centered around them ended with like a rainbow or somethinf and another time julien made a dick joke and kowalski made a dick joke theres so many dick jokes guys. whatwevr

—ask collection!

a collection of mostly very old chats and sweet asks that i never got around to answering! thanks for the patience and love!! 

beware, fairly long post... woops....

chat asks.

darling: Eu-jin is best boy. Change my mind.

vanya: i am physically incapable of fulfilling that request, how dare you do that to me... i’m biased since he’s my own oc, but i would die for my (very best) boy eu-jin... who can resist such a gentle yandere that loves you so whole-heartedly?

that reminds me! he’s actually based off of kuroyuki and gekkamaru from the otome nightshade, so if you want similar characters by any chance, do check them and the game out ♡

darling: I was watching the dub for Part 5 of JoJo's Bizarre adventure yesterday...Mista called himself Daddy and I like- sdfghjfgsdhnhnmj!! My heart can't take this--

vanya: WAIT HE DID???? i’m not even big on daddy kink and reading that made me go 😳 this is vital information to know... what episode was this??? for research purposes, of course. gotta perfect my yan! mista, after all~...

darling: for yandere songs, have you heard of the major to minor covers by chase holfelder :O? the way he delivers the lyrics in some songs (betty, all i want for christmas), added with the key changes to minor, is really fantastic, and gives a stalker-ish vibe imo! and he's a really good singer in general

vanya: i have!! a good chunk of them are actually on my personal yandere playlist, so i end up hearing them frequently when i’m writing!! i haven’t been keeping up with his uploads recently, so ‘betty’ is completely new to me and just, wow???????????? this man is an absolute god send for us “romantic” horror fans... ♡

this ask gave me such a lovely idea, though, darling: assigning yandere types/mbti based off each of chase’s minor key covers. i think i’ll do that just for you. ♡

darling @blossomiich​: I reread some of your old character interaction asks and saw the one with Jotaro hugging his Darling after a panic attack and the elephant seal plush reminded me of the iconic C H O N K Y ringed seal plushie that was kinda trending and I can totally imagine Jotaro having one of those >w< that's so adorable!

vanya: i honestly don’t remember that interaction, but then again i don’t remember most things hmghng so i looked it up and

j...just imagine star plat hogging it and not letting joot cuddle with it 🥺 the duality of man...thank you for this cute image...

darling: Umm, sorry for asking this. I'm just curious because of your bio language in your header. Are you Chinese too, perhaps?

vanya: no worries!! i’m mixed guyanese (indian, chinese, & possibly black and/or portuguese), but my family only celebrates (or rather, acknowledges?) our indian descent, since the majority of our family is predominantly east indian. 

my header is actually a quote from a danmei novel (and one of my all-time favorite fandoms), tiān guān cì fú (heaven’s official blessing)!

darling genki stan anon: Omg you're writing for free now, i didn't expect that one lol. It's a cute show innit? Not a nagi stan but I feel like nagisa has that kinda unsnapped personality that would make him peak delusional yandere material lolol like oikawa but less threatening and without his head being up his own ass 😂. Hope you're doing well!! -gsa

Gdjsjs im such a fool, i think my last ask said something about not thinking you'd write for free when i literally just pointed out kisumi on your sideblog LMAO my bad 😅 😂 also ill hold back on the gen chan requests because ive already asked so many in the past! Thank you though 🥺. Also feel free not to post this, it can just dip into my onesided chats with my lil flower 💐 so long as you receive them im fine 😌 -genki stan anon

vanya: nagisa isn’t my favorite (kisumi is), but gods if he wouldn’t make a great yandere. honestly, out of the iwatobi boys, nagi is probably the most unhinged. i wouldn’t peg him as delusional, at least not at first; i think he’s very lucid and knows exactly what he wants and how to manipulate people in order to get it!!! kisumi is fairly similar now that i think about it... i might... have a type...

please feel free to send in gen-chan requests whenever you want!!!! i’m kinda super asocial, so it’ll take me a while to answer, but i love getting asks from you since you’re so sweet and excitable!!! your little flower reads and cherishes them all!! 🥺

also darling genki stan anon: Sorry for spamming you with asks hdjkdks, u dont even need to reply im just kinda brain empty venting here whether you recieve them or not 😂 i just needed to confess that while yes i am #1 gen simp, and he is undoubtedly my fave oc of yours but that Ilya tentacle smut had me very much so highkey kinda 👀, had to re read the genki oral style drabble to bring my head back. He dont even need to worry about luca bc that man a thot. I think therin is a thot too but like lowkey, a classy thót -gsa

vanya: omg i’ve kept this one for forever mnmghngh i might’ve even answered at some other point, now that i think about it... but i just 🥺 gosh i hope i find my muse soon, because i really wanna write you a genki fic 🥺 hhhh

the ilya tentacle smut was so in character for that boy... i have no clue how to write monsters, much less tentacles, but i’d honestly do anything for him 🙏 kinky russian boy...

therin is definitely a classy thot, the kind that only bangs the finest concubines then turns around and slut shames you for banging the very same prostitutes gbfmngnfg rules don’t apply to him, in his kingdom...wish that were me tbh ✊😔

sweet asks.

darling one: i've read almost all of your dazai and chuuya fics and i love them so much!! your formatting is also super aesthetic just a question, i saw on your kofi that you also draw so i was wondering if you drew all the header arts?? bc they're all super pretty :) have a great day!

darling two: Just wanted to say love the writing and the way your format your posts is so aesthetically pleasing. One day I hope my posts looks half as good as yours because I legit can't get over how pretty and organized it looks.

vanya: omg thank you so much!!!! one of my bffs, yue, is to thank for the formatting and aesthetic choices, really! if you wanna see more of her aesthetic formats and posts, she actually runs a few blogs! you may know her as @milkscafe​, formally @milkaaton! i adore her and her aes choices so much 🥺

as for the headers, i don’t draw 99.98% of them! i have drawn a couple, but they’re so few and far in between since i almost never finish my art wips haha... my older posts are lacking proper credits because i’m an absolute idiot, but i’m slowly working my way backwards to credit them all where possible! they’re all indeed super pretty!!!

have a great day yourself, my love!!

darling: THEY’RE NOT BAD CONTENT, I LOVE THEM ALL

vanya: this was in response to a now-deleted lil blurb but i kept it in my inbox because i wanted to say i love u very much and seeing this ask each time i open my inbox makes my heart skip a beat ♡

darling: Listen I love your writing, you inspired me to start it myself! I've always loved to write, and read of course but your style and concepts just stick with me. If you where to write something besides Yandere content/fandom content and started your own series? I would read the shit, out of it. I'm always nervous to interact with my favorite writers because you know, I'm afraid of the impression I'd leave but I just wanted to say this anyway! 💞💞💞🔫😳

vanya: wowowow fgfnmgnfmngfg that’s such a high compliment my brain just gmfnbgmnf go boom fogjfngnfg and thank you for the interaction, us writers truly appreciate it no matter how awkward or nervous you think you may be / come off!!!

darling one: As a writer, your post struck a nerve with me. I don’t send feedback to writers I like nearly as much as I should (and certainly not as much as I’d like in return as a writer). So, as such, I’m going to start doing that when I can, starting with you.

You are an incredible writer. You were one of the first yandere writing blogs I found and you’re still one I check in on regularly to see what you have been working on. You can portray a sense of suspense and intrigue in a natural way that many other writers - published ones included - struggle with. You delve into the darkness without it feeling forced, and you have an amazing grasp on the psyches of the characters you write for (which is a quality I adore in writing and strive toward myself).

I’m not great at ending these things so I guess.. you keep doing you? Because the you is great and I appreciate it.

darling two:  hey. i'm here to tell you that from the bottom of my heart i love you and your writings. i really admire your writing skills. you inspire me. one of your posts once saved me from a nervous breakdown. thank you for everything you do. you're a wonderful person. good luck!

darling three: I wanted to tell you that thank you for writing such wonderful beautiful writings and that you take time to edit and write I hope you are taking care of yourself 💖❤

darling four: Thanks. I was having a hard time and deleted all my apps, but as soon as i opened my phone my first instinct was to look at your blog and i got my motivation back. Thanks (:

darling five: Hi ! I just wanted to say I really enjoy the stories you write and how they are detailed so well ! Stay safe and I hope you have a good day/night ! ლ(╹◡╹ლ)

vanya: ahhhh, these are very old asks mostly dating back to my “tumblr writing community is dying” post, and i’ve kept them this entire time because i’m just so starstruck. i have no clue how to reply to compliments, so i’m not sure what else to say besides that these asks made me very happy and got me through a few insecure moments!!! i’ve actually been feeling a little down about my writing recently, mostly because of lack of motivation / inspiration, so revisiting these really warmed my heart, so thank you truly ♡ i’m certainly keeping the originals in my inbox until the end of time!!

darling @monstrously-obsessed: psst, this local cryptic mom thing send all of their love for you 💕

vanya: your local herbo says she loves you very much momster 🥺 mwah

also, to the anon worried about my safety:

thank you so much for pointing that out!!! it hadn’t even crossed my mind when i made those ocs, so i appreciate your concern! i was contemplating revamping those two as is, so this is a great place to start! thank you again!!

THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY

Similar to other comic adaptations I saw this as well, honestly I have not read the comics but I did my fair share of research before watching the show and I wasn’t disappointed with it. I mean they did a good job and tried to make it as much authentic to the comics they could. As I speculated that the “ranking” was in the reversed order of their powers and that was it, well watching too many mystery shows and movies give you a fair idea of what might happen in the show and I did predict how the end would happen, the apocalypse not exactly but who would be the reason behind it.

#1 Luther (The Spaceboy)- I HATED HIM. Just the worst of the siblings. You think you are better than all of your sibling because you listened to you so called father?? No you are not practically you are the worst. They all left the house when it was time because that is what you do when you grow up, move on. You keep sulking about that how he sent you to the moon, overlooking the the fact that he literally tortured every single of your siblings. This character got on my nerves to an extent even I can’t describe. The character depiction was amazing thought, it was the character that was complex and narcissistic and the fact that people hate the character with so much emotions is that it was portrayed perfectly. Still hate him.

#2 Diego (The Kraken)- Okay not my favourite but not the worst either. I honestly thing he was the most “normal” of all the siblings on an emotional level, sure they all had problems but he actually dealt with them like an adult. He called out Luther for his bullshit and supported and took care of Klaus in a way that mattered and not just money, He had to work and earn like a normal person and had friends, because it was just him who had friends amongst everyone. His reaction to his mom was something I totally agree with, even if she was a peice of technology she was more of a parent to those kids than their father ever was. And seeing him loose her broke my heart.

#3 Allison (The Rumor)-  Not the worst but in the bottom two for me atleast. She tried to be a caring sister to Vanya but it’s not that she was before, this is all because now she realizes how she must feel because she is away from her loved ones too. She is kind of a manipulative bitch character who you don’t completely hate but is just plain bad writing. And if we talk about her powers its simple mind control I think. She can compel anyone to do anything against their will, it may good to use on your enemies but you always get greedy with great power and she did even after promising her husband that she wouldn’t. And her relationship with Luther, was like what the hell?? Who cares you guys are adopted you are still siblings and it’s just so wrong. I think it’s because of the growing “trend” to use incestous characters. That’s the worst relationship in the show and we had a boy with a mannequin.Yes Allison did pay up for the rehab for Klaus a few time but that does not change the fact that there has to be a profound bond and it’s not just about the money you spend on someone to show them you love, you actually have to show your bloody emotions.

#4 Klaus (The Seance)- My and probably many people’s favourite character, for me it’s because I can relate to him on a certain level that he chose the easy path of drugs instead the more difficult one because no matter what anyone says it actually hurts alot to be able too even think about your loved ones and baby boy could see them and have an actual conversation with them not just hallucinations. The part were their father use to lock him up in a mausoleum just so he could overcome his fear was one of the many reasons for his toxic parenting. He fucked up all his kids in all sort of different ways but i guess the higher their numbers get the higher they were “tortured”by their tyrunt of a father, he gave competition to Thanos for the worst adoptive father. I loved the fact that somehow he found love in dave but even that was taken away from him. One of the best sibling relationships amongst these was Klaus and Diego, how he took care of him while listening him to whine all the damn time. He showed alot of courage in the later episodes, I mean c’mon he literally died and even then his shit of a father was there insulting him instead of comforting him. Klaus (number 4) Hargreeves deserves way better.

#5 Number 5 - He was the only one who didn’t even want a name and that says something about a 10 year old child’s mental health and one more reason how cruel their father was that he didn’t even want to associate with that man. Yes he suffered alot because of a tantrum he threw as a child and not having a supporting parent in the household, clearly shows how much a lack of opportunity or encouragement means to a growing child. That is something I can vouch for personally because I have been through that and it is devastating that when you tell your parent about a dream you have and they don’t take you seriously and ignore you. Although my wish wasn’t to travel in space and time but all have our own things and he had his own, he made mistake and he did suffer for it and too alone, do you know how hard it is to live alone in this age of technology and connectivity and he lived all alone in a post apocalyptic world with a freaking mannequin, no wonder he got so hard and defensive, living like that can affect anyone and I don’t blame him at all for taking the only chance he got to get back to his family to do anything it takes to be with them, don’t tell me you don’t take the opportunity after you live 35 years alone in a  world with no knowledge of how to get back or any other living person. He might show he didn’t care about his sibling but he would kill for them and we all know that very well. Don’t know what kind of relationship he had with Vanya before running of but how he trusted her and opened up to her after he came back tells me that he was actually nice to vanya than others, and Vanya did say she kept the lights on all the time for him hoping he might come and she didn’t want him to be scared of the dark when he comes back says something about their relationship, I am not saying that he wasn’t cruel to her as we saw the flashbacks that even klaus was mean to her a little bit can you literally blame the kids for that because no matter what you see what you do and they saw how cruel and cold and distant Reginald was with her and all they thought the same and c’mon they were kids the only person to blame was their father for everything. He had a hard time an dhe was trying to do everything he can to prevent that from happening again. This is the only show that didn’t give a crap about mixed timelines or anything, he wanted to save the world and w tried everything he could to that and honestly for the first time it was good to see that way. Well as i said before how the higher the number the stronger the power and it proved true when in the end he made a portal that could transform his siblings and got ben back from the dead too.We can only see his powers grow.

#6 Ben (The Horror)- we didn’t get much about him on the show because he was deceased. All we saw him was in the flashbacks and when Klaus conjures him, he is the purest of all the siblings maybe because he didn’t have to put up with the shit they had to go through when they become adults. Judging from his statue he died young and was very powerful too. His powers were something to do with a tentacle monster from a different dimension who he could conjure in his stomach. Kinda weird but if it wasn’t a powerful tool. We saw that he was actually sacred to use his powers and didn’t use it unless it was the last resort the whole team had and he felt bad about it. He was a good more like the best sibling to Klaus and their banters were honestly one of the best part of the whole damn show. The fact that he knew that Klaus needed hima nd no matter how much drugs he took ben fought throw it and stayed with him as his voice of reason. And for him to come back in the final episode to help all his siblings when they were all cornered was a defining moment and was a smack in everyone of their siblings who didn’t believe in klaus or him. I am glad that he is back, would like see more of him and that we would explore his powers as he was ranked the second most highest amongst the siblings.

#7 Vanya Hargreeves - Hands down the most powerful character, i mean she started the apocalypse. Someone like me must have guessed from the start that she has powers or is the most powerful and there was something their shit of father had something to do with it. But there is the one time I liked him was because he gave vanya the violin and the smile he had , had me thinking that he actually cared for one of his kids but it was just that he was scared of her. Having a father you says you are the most ordinary hurts no matter what you do and honestly that she lashed like that was understandable. Everything she did was just perfect for me, her reaction to everything was how it should have been. The only part i hated wa show she trusted luther and that asshole of a brother locked her up despite every single sibling of his was yelling at him to get her out of the prison and she wouldn’t have done anything if they actually talked instead of locking her up. She was the most human character in the show and how she embraced her powers at the end and became the white violin is honestly worth the whole show. And at the end them talking was the only thing that got them threw.

All in all a I liked the show and would want another season of it, just less of Luther because he sucked as a leader and as a sibling too.
