Every Ending in Silent Hill 2 (2024): REBIRTH

One thing that is now unfair to ask is...what is Nine's name? Look hori treated him as an afterthought but his lack of origins works better than the comical twnko's origins.

Yes his family was all killed thanks to him but ...I can't help to think that scene was too ridiculous.

We never saw anyone mentioned them again, not even shig. (He remembers them in MVA and we do see the disgusting human puppet hori flay around) But that's it.

So Nine...

Im not one of those people who think a new character needs to be related to a pre stabelished one. Nine doesn't need to be a Todoroki, Shimura or hell even a lost Midoriya (hahahahahahaha as if hori would care for this family)

But ....imagine if Nine was related to Oboro, somehow, wouldn't that be interesting?

Maybe, maybe not.

Oboro's character became a thing to turns Aizawa into a better character...and fails. Kuro was sacrificed for nothing.

The thing about Shigaraki/Tenko backstory is that it feels... a bit overdramatic?

Well we can say that about his whole character, but the part of his backstory in particular when he kills his family is so exagerated for the sake of shock value that it kinda feels comical.

Horikoshi tried a bit too hard on make MVA feel like the edgier and "different" arc of the series, but the contrast in so big that I can't take it seriously.

Especially when Hori already nailed a dark tone without being super explicit or over the top.

Take the simplicity of Eri's backstory for example:

No blood, no unnecessary violence, just two panels giving a basic idea of what happened to Eri's father and yet the image of those clothes lying on the floor is much more haunting and eerie than the enterity of Shigaraki backstory.

Why Horikoshi stop being subtle with his storytelling?

...

Anyway going back to Nine real name, or the lack of one, I think it's interesting how that aspect of his character adds to the underlying theme of how AFO and Garaki dehumanize people, especially the ones that are part of their experiments.

We know very well how AFO doesn't view other human being as persons but rather objects that belong to him. This starts with his very own twin brother, which name Yoichi means something like "my first possesion".

And just like Nine, number 6 from Vigilantes was a child which whole life was modeled by AFO. They both are just numbers without a real name.

In this case the idea is presented even more explicitly because Six was a child who suffered some kind of amnesia and couldn't even view himself as a normal human with a face.

He even died as a monster without ever know if he had an identity outside being the number 6.

It's funny how you mention the idea of Nine and Shirakumo being connected somehow, as isn't the first time I've hear that.

It's interesting notice how they share this common theme about sky and clouds as part of who they are (Nine's name also is supposedly a reference to the term "cloud nine") both Nine and Oboro are individuals willing to sacrifice their own lifes for others, and ironically both of them ended being experimented by Dr Garaki.

I even have the headcanon of Kurogiri being the "Number 7" in this line of experiments were Nine and Six belong, as sort of missing link between Six and the sentient nomus.

I probably should make a post later explaining better this idea.

And yes for Horikoshi, Shirakumo was just a diposable character to make Aizawa look cooler and more edgy.

While the author of Vigilantes clearly invested a lot of effort on making Oboro a real and memorable character which complements Aizawa rather than just being an accesory. But that topic deserves it's own post as well.

P.S: I have an idea of what real name we could give to Nine, but I keep it for me at least for the moment.

Okay, I have another idea: a spinoff with the Charles' children who are like a modern Holmes and Watson but gender reversed.

They would be: Nic and Norman Charles.

Ideal casting:

Tom Holland as Norman Charles

Izabela Vidovic as Nicolette Nic Charles

They would be perfect!!!

I miss a couple like Nick and Nora Charles in today's media; can anyone make a movie starring Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster as the Charles'???

They're perfect as the new age Nick and Nora Charles!!!

Or even a Fred and Ginger movie!!!

Thinking about the current X-Men serieses, and how they have framed Rogue and Cyclops as the new Xavier and Magneto. And I have to laugh at the beautiful storytelling set-up of -

Xavier's first student, his most loyal soldier, who Xavier most likely considers as a son (more than his own tbh) and who he had hoped would follow in his footsteps, becoming the successor to the role Xavier's best friend took on during one of their many 'splits' as he rails against the system.

The daughter of Magneto's most trusted General, who was a member of the Brotherhood of 'Evil' Mutants, whose power is 'stealing' others' abilities and life force dedicating herself to protecting the world and guiding its people to a future of harmony and understanding while playing within the system.

The narrative symbolism is just 😘

Soooooo, I may combine 3 out of the 4 wips I have going on rn and just make them into a Ranger Reyes spin off fic. All three of them are plot lines I would’ve put in it anyway ���� I would just have to come up with several more plot lines before it could be a done deal…

did anyone else pick up on some Vibes between terry and soren this season.

The Axolotl is a being associated with death, the afterlife, and rebirth, guiding souls through to the other side and helping them reincarnate. (As far as I can find) Xolotl, the god for which the animal is named, is a psychopomp as well. Dogs, the animal he's associated with, are guides for spirits in the underworld. Additionally, he protects the sun every night as it travels through the underworld, a cyclical cycle of "death" (setting sun) and "rebirth" (rising sun). Sounds similar huh?

This makes me wonder: in the Gravity Falls universe, did mesoamericans know of The Axolotl ? Which name came first ? Did mesoamericans have the god Xolotl, made contact with The Axolotl, and give it that name ? Or did they have contact with The Axolotl, and from there it became Xolotl ? I feel like it's not a coincidence that The Axolotl and Xolotl share similar roles AND are etymologically related AND of all the things it could've looked like, it looked like an axolotl from Earth.

I just think it would be interesting...we know Bill has had impacts on human religions and civilizations, so why not other powerful beings? How might've The Axolotl contacted humans in the first place?

If you're knowledgeable about indigenous mesoamerican religions and this is inappropriate/inaccurate let me know and I'll edit or take it down.

Do you think we will get a Keenry spin off? I am 100% sure we will. I just wonder when it’ll be announced.

Do you think they would wait a couple of years to announce it or it would be announced this year at a later date or next year?

I feel like there’s soooo much they could do with a Keenry spin off considering their ending. Like, competing in tournaments, travelling the world, domestic keenry. Fluff, Angst, Keenry going on dates, and so much other things.

I think it could be done SO well. I don’t really want #those CK writers to be THAT included in the spin off. we need actual writers, people with common sense and people who KNOW how to write.

I also want 10+ episodes in a season with episodes an hour each. Like, I’m sorry I’m really not playing with them when it comes to a Keenry spin off.

With #those writers they’re bound to fuck something up. Jon is teasing so much, so I am very optimistic.

But it hasn’t even been announced and I’m already stressed lol😭😭

AAA sorry for the late reply, but here i go

Do I think there will be a spinoff? Girl, there BETTER be a spinoff or i am gonna scream. The amount of teasing + tanner wanting to do it is giving me so much buzz. Honestly, no clue when they're going to announce it, but hey the sooner the better. I fw all your ideas for the spinoff + some more ideas such as Brandon FINALLY being in the show again for more than 2 minutes, tory and robby finding out the truth about kreese and silver, robby winning a tournament and standing on the podium with tory, and hey depending on how long this spinoff were to go maybe even a proposal at the end (is that crazy?? that probably is). If we get this spinoff, it would likely be a limited series, but if there's multiple seasons then like a proposal would be nice hehe BRO YOU'RE ME. YOU'RE LITERALLY ME. #THOSE WRITERS WOULD SCREW IT UP. I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS.
