Just wanna say this: the High-End Hood should've been Shinomori's corpse.

Yes, it's confirmed Hood is some random fighter from the underground, but it just makes more sense if it were Shinomori at the base?? At the least, I think it'd be verrry fascinating

Although it might be a bit cliche, like if Kudo were Bakugo's ancestor, but it'd be a nice piece of trivia. It wouldn't have to be said outright. Like AFO losing Yoichi's hand cuz of All Might.

Endeavor just fights and kills Shinomori, a cute hermit that gave the rest of his life because of OFA, and Bruce's trust in him over said Factor. Even using his turn to build up strength, Shinomori was looking forward to the future too

A parallel of wanting to be the strongest is drawn between Shinomori and Endeavor. Even after death, the duty of OFA haunts even a corpse.

For why it makes sense if Hood were Shinomori;

Shinomori and Hood wear the same kind of pants (Hood's is ripped, but he's a Nomu and corpse, so it makes sense). It even ends just below the knee. A colored version because I don't want to open the anime;

Shinomori's desire to avoid the strongest (AFO) could've been tweaked by Garaki to look for the strongest instead

Hood looking for the strongest person (hero) could even be Shinomori's desire to give OFA to someone strong enough to protect and grow the Factor. As a hero, someone trustworthy

My [OFA Users are High-Ends theory post] for why Shinomori would be a good base for a High-End

AFO didn't know his face, so the High-End could've been named Hood to keep up themes. That AFO didn't know his face, and even now, he has a "hood"; Hood's face isn't visible beyond glowing features at first

Endeavor burned Hood and said to rest. This could've been Shinomori getting his cremation, and that Shinomori could relax (about OFA)

Endeavor said Hood is possibly Endeavor from the past or the future. In the past, Shinomori wanted to grow his strength for the Factor, so technically, Shinomori wanted to be the strongest. The strongest he could be, at least

The fact we know Shinomori underwent an autopsy, and that Garaki works in morgues to harvest corpses

The knowledge that multiple Quirks kills the normal (not-AFO) person is found in Shinomori. Finding this out, this could've been the reason Garaki and AFO specifically use corpses for Nomus. That way, there's no life force to drain, and technically no drawbacks to the wielder

Garaki was alive during Shinomori's time. Considering these panels,

This happens chronologically. AFO knew Bruce only had leftover embers (he could tell the same with All Might), which is why he looks so dismissive of his corpse. He's just wondering where Yoichi could be now.

AFO met Garaki after he killed Bruce. With all his followers and the way AFO is sitting, he's likely in search of Yoichi in Shinomori. But he never sees or meets the wielder. Thus the way he has his head down, as if upset and ignoring the insignificant crowds

That's why, when he finds Banjo, he's smiling. Yoichi is right in front of him again, after 18+ years of nothing.

Garaki was probably alive for all the OFA users. He's already looking middle-aged when he first meets AFO, and his Ability is just longer life. So he looks younger than he actually is anyway.

Since AFO faced all the previous OFA Users (sans Shinomori), AFO had access to their bodies when they died. Meanwhile, Shinomori ends up in the morgue anyway, likely by Banjo.

AFO shredded Yoichi's body apart, so there's no corpse left. He killed Kudo, Bruce, Banjo, En, and Nana; but not Shinomori, who died of old age, or All Might or Midoriya, because they're still alive.

He has access to the corpses of the previous holders he killed himself, and left relatively intact. And Banjo may as well have given him Shinomori's corpse to figure out what killed a relatively-young, healthy man.

With access to those corpses, AFO and Garaki could've preserved the corpses of OFA Users to make High-Ends

(Maybe see this post where I elaborate why OFA users make great bases for High-Ends)

Yanqing and Yunli Appreciation Post

Keep Reading cut due to 2.4 spoilers~ (also relatively long-ish post)

These two bounce off each other so well! As a writer, it feels so satisfying to see their characters shine through the quest and the event in the way their interactions highlight them. So I'm gonna use this space to ramble about it!

My previous post pretty much talked about it already, but Yanqing!!! My son!!! I was quite worried that any potential arc for him would be shoved down the road or to the side due to the scale HSR has, but the game's been actually holding up to his ongoing arc. As a result, at least to me, he's come through as one of the best written/developed characters on the Xianzhou so far.

The nature of the length of the updates lets what we get in previous quests settle in for a long while, and considering the mentioned of flow of time in-game, Yanqing's had the time to think and develop as a person. The fact that so many players have had their view and opinion of him finally turn around in this quest is a testament to that. We get to see more facets of him, as in, doing his job and the responsibilities of doing so, and how his insecurities are mentioned in a main quest for all to see. He's constantly referencing others and his past encounters. You can tell that Jing Yuan raised him with his manner and approach to things, which is highlighted by the contrast to Yunli (will get to that soon).

His position as a child soldier has made him mature faster, be quiet even when he's been wronged (filial piety/saving face (aka thank you person on Reddit who makes the banger character Yanqing (and other characters in general) appreciation posts)), take a step back and have to be able to read the room (though, reasonably, he doesn't catch on all the time), and much, much more. The fact that other official content has described him as being more worried about diplomacy and all that. He doesn't have the luxury to be as carefree or brash for someone his age.

There's a lot to unpack there still, even with the development he's had now and that's good! If the Hoyo writing team was wild enough, it'd be cool to see them address the grayness of his role and Jing Yuan's mindset in raising him as he did (We love Dad-Yuan and he loves his son dearly no question, but it'd be so interesting to explore his flaws/mistakes in this perspective!).

Now onto Yunli.

I'm saying straight off the bat, I'm irritated by her!

And that's a good thing!

Her being annoying or bratty or irritating doesn't automatically make her a badly written character! She only would become one if they don't do anything with her, and HSR most probably will, and she should be given the same room to develop in her own arc.

She acts like her age, and she doesn't have the same pressures as Yanqing does. Just like how you can see Jing Yuan in Yanqing, you can see Huaiyan in Yunli, if anything he says is to go by. She's tempremental and outspoken to a fault, and based on the way how quickly Huaiyan relented when she talked back, you can tell that Huaiyan isn't as strict/stern with her to give her a sense of being humble.

I had this thought that she's technically what the general fandom viewed Yanqing as initially, and I'm not saying that as a 100% thing, by the way. But like by some traits and the vibes. She, of course, has a lot more nuance that will be explored at one point or another.

But back on topic, she's a foil. They represent two different approaches and lifestyles and can clearly learn from each other. Her inconsideration of the fact that she's on the Luofu but enforcing Zhuming practices (which I noticed people were upset by, and same; which I imagine is the point), her bluntness to no matter who she's talking to—there's a lot to work with here.

Just like with their swordplay, Yanqing could learn from her mental strength while Yunli can learn from his focused speed and defense. He can learn to regain a more firm grasp of his recently found purpose while she can learn to mature and take in her surroundings and be more thoughtful in that front.

Another interesting note is that where we are with Yanqing currently is in the middle of his arc, we've had the time to see him take a long route of struggle to get to this point, exacerbated by irl players views of him. He's in the middle of his growth and we've had since 1.0 to get to know him. But with Yunli, she was introduced very recently, so we're technically at the "beginning" of her character arc. In a way, Yunli now highlights how far Yanqing has come and changed, and in a way Yanqing now is a potential show for the arc that Yunli can have (not being the exact same as him of course).

I think the idea with these two is that they develop to be more balanced. Balance is such an important thing, especially in Chinese culture (Daoism (Yin-Yang), etc.), and 2.4 has shown how much potential they have to make for amazing character arcs.

It's cool that while they have such similar base traits, they're so different from each other. Calling Yunli a female Yanqing or Yanqing a male Yunli is simply outright incorrect. Their backgrounds, upbringings, ideals, swordstyles, perspectives, and positions in life are so distinct. I'm looking forward to their futures!

[statics-white-noise]

Kouyou is such an interesting character to me. Because her cynicism is so intriguing.

It seems as though she wasn't naturally a cynic. She used to be full of hope and light. Her failed attempt at leaving the mafia when she was young (which ended with the man she tried to leave with being killed) is likely what crushed this, obviously.

And she sees herself in Kyouka. A young girl who desperately doesn't want to hurt anyone anymore.

So I think that Kouyou, while she is the torture specialist of the mafia, has morals that she's buried deep down within herself somewhere. I also wonder if her ability, Golden Demon, helps her separate herself from her actions due to its remote nature.

Her mayoi cards also give me a lot of neat stuff to say about her. But alas! Now is not quite the time for that.

Completely unrelated to the Bakery AU but I'm curious

How do you feel about SilverSilence14 and Aquaticnaho's Crawlout Through the Fallout fanfic?

Also thank you for giving the Blaze Rods love

They're jerks but they're my jerks 😆

Oh my gosh I have been meaning to read that fic for MONTHS and I haven’t gotten to it yet 😵‍💫

Maybe now that I have a ton of free time I can start it. Everything I’ve seen about it looks really good.

And absolutely, they may be terrible people but I think they’re interesting, and I would have loved to have known more about them and their relationship with Lukas. I firmly believe Gill Minecraft deserved better 🫶

[caliburn-the-sword]

ranking ouat characters by how likely they are to lose a finger in a swordfight

preface: i'm gonna be poking fun at these funky little characters for fun, but i really appreciate how the show gives them distinct fighting styles!!! it both sets them apart both literally and by personality, as well as setting them up for interesting fights as different characters are pit up against different characters!!! that's really cool.

now, before i start, YES, a lot of things are gonna sound like an innuendo. get your laughs out about it now. if you make a dirty joke, i promise i will be in your walls <3

anyway, as i've mentioned in a previous post, my experience in swordfighting is in using wooden training sword , which weighs just under a kilo. i typically use this for the fancy, pretty looking stuff like patterns. in actual sparring, i'm using what's essentially a plastic pipe covered in foam which if i had to estimate weighs a quarter of a kilo MAX). a proper real metal sword, depending on the length, is gonna be somewhere just under or over a kilo. so contrary to all your fantasy novels or movies, you're not gonna pick up a sword and be like "oh shit that's heavy i can't even heft it up". you will very easily be able to pick up that sword. it only becomes heavy once you've done a lot of swinging it around, carried it for a while, etc. adrenaline can carry you through maybe the first three minutes, and then your exhaustion will hit you, and then you're gonna be carried by your own endurance primarily, but yes this does build strength so believe me when i say that all the ouat characters are canonically quite strong (but you didn't need me to tell you that lmao).

Last place: David

HIS SWORD THROW IS SO IMPRESSIVE. you will most likely end up very unarmed having missed the enemy and very at the mercy of your enemy who still has their sword. luckily for him IT WAS COOL AS FUCK that i won't be considering that a point of deduction, ESPECIALLY because he would have hit regina if she couldn't teleport.

now let me just say, his circle work??? very good indeed. he can take multiple enemies in a fight. he absolutely will NOT trip over his feet and get killed in that way.

now, i understand the flair for the dramatic in big, overarm swing type movements. i've got two concerns: first of all, how far he extends his arm when swinging his sword. he's opening himself to get his hand cut off, getting stabbed, etc. secondly, when you extend your hand that far and suddenly have to block a strike??? it's essentially the strength of your arm vs the strength of your opponent's ENTIRE body. you do NOT want that.

he also has a tendency to blend hand to hand combat with swordfighting, yikes. when swordfighting, a main advantage is your REACH and how much DISTANCE you're able to keep. david is essentially throwing all that away to get closer and throw in a couple elbows. he's gonna get himself very stabbed that way.

occasionally, he also does a big spinny thing and can i say PLEASE don't turn your back on your opponent you're ITCHING to get stabbed. interesting note: when he uses a two handed grip, he tends to swing like a baseball bat.

judgement: at best, he's lost a hand. at worst, he's dead.

Killian Jones

not even 0.5 seconds into his first fight with rumpelstiltskin, SIR WHAT WAS THAT WINDUP??? YOU'RE NOT THROWING A BASEBALL. after that he's got a decent fencing style. he keeps his free hand close to his body, where he doesn't risk it getting cut off. i'm concerned when he advances that he makes his stance TOO long. since this is a one on one fight, that's fine, but if he was fighting multiple people at once he would be taken out by being TRIPPED. that said it's still good that he advances and places pressure on his opponent. solid technique. HELP HE JUST DID THE WORST GLANCE EVER. rumpelstiltskin's sword was STILL UP and KILLIAN WAS ALREADY LOWERING HIS SWORD. THIS IS HOW YOU GET SLASHED IN THE CHEST. random wide swings???? i appreciate that he ACTUALLY aims for vital points, unlike literally everyone else on this damn show. killing someone pretty much stops YOU from getting killed, so his survival prospects have just increased despite everything.

killian has a GREAT ability to disarm his enemies. disarming your enemies = not being killed.

his movements in his fight with emma are ALL wide and dramatic. is he showing off???? i hate to say it but if YOU have a sword and someone is trying to tackle you, you should STAB them so that you don't risk losing your sword, impaling yourself, or your opponent getting your sword. horny bastard.

HE DID A DRAMATIC SPIN. JAIL. and wasting time gloating?? surefire way to give your opponent opportunities. he's lucky emma was never aiming for the kill to begin with, and was quite inexperienced.

we see VERY wide swings in the neverland arc too.

does not have a very strong stance when fighting blackbeard </3 killian being capable of using his hook to reinforce blocks by placing it down the edge of his blade is AMAZING. i don't know how to explain this, but when you're gripping the handle of your sword with two hands, you are pushing against a single point. when he holds the handle with one hand and braces the other end of the sword with his hook, the force is more evenly spread, making it stronger. the only way i can think of achieving that with two hands is by bracing against the flat of the blade, and by god i am NOT risking that EVEN tho it's just a plastic pipe covered in foam LMAO.

idc about the context you are absolutely NOT striking towards someone's feet. don't do that. very impractical, even if you're trying to force them to step somewhere.

anyway he's pretty decent at taking multiple opponents at a time, tho i do prefer charming's circle work.

judgement: this is so long BECAUSE HE'S SO DAMN INCONSISTENT. i noticed that past season 5 he gets back to being more consistent and fency. so i think it's during high emotional states when he starts going wide. unfortunately the big thing with fighting is you gotta be able to BALANCE your emotion or you're gonna slip up like hell. i REALLY wanted to rank him higher than i did (it was honestly very close between him and snow white) because like i mentioned, he doesn't hold back and has great disarming skills, however i find him too inconsistent to be reliable. catch him on a bad day (he has a lot of those) and he's sloppy. so yeah.

Snow White

she doesn't have as many swordfighting scenes as other characters, but she's quite promising. i won't fault her for kicks, even tho i personally wouldn't risk it, because she isn't getting up close and personal like an elbow would (looking at david). she has a tendency to get low, which like major no no. mega yikes. you lose all your reach with that. i'd like to commend her for being able to get BEHIND her enemies quite often. anytime you can manage to NOT be where your opponent is pointing their sword is a pretty good one. however she also likes to spin, and you know how i feel about that. she doesn't swing too dramatically (like the others before her on the list), and she tends to put more of her body behind her slashes and parries rather than using her arm to tank it all which i really appreciate. i also REALLY noticed her grip (in a good way). mainly because i couldn't watch her footwork. that goes hand in hand with my previous point, you gotta have a good grip to put your body behind in strikes. i would say her biggest risk is getting her hand chopped off, but otherwise i reckon she fares quite well.

Number 1: she's an icon, she's a legend, and she IS the moment Emma Swan

really appreciate emma also managing the sword toss. anyway, tbf what i'm judging rn is one of her earliest swordfighting scenes GIRL DON'T DUCK UNDER A SWORD?? DON'T GET LOW FIRST OF ALL, AND SECONDLY IF YOU MISJUDGE YOU LOSE YOUR HEAD. please DODGE or PARRY or BLOCK. emma has the same big swinging problem as david. IF YOU LOSE YOUR SWORD DON'T GET CLOSER GET FURTHER. IDC HOW MUCH YOU WANT TO GET YOUR HANDS ON HOOK, THAT'S A GREAT WAY TO GET STABBED. then she CRAWLS (turning her back on her opponent) for her sword instead of JETTING IT. girl a sword is gonna do you no good when you're ON THE GROUND YOU CAN'T SWING OR STAB FOR SHIT. now if you pull up the clip and see her FIRST strike once she gets on her feet again, first of all: SHE WASN'T EVEN AIMING FOR ANY VITAL SPOT SHE SWUNG LIKE HALF A FOOT FROM HIS HEAD. secondly that grip is giving me second hand embarrassment. what is that.

next significant swordfight we see is with gold in season 4. her fencing-like stance?? cool. she is NOT leaving her torso or neck open to any stabbing whatsoever. she kept her free hand close to her body for a SIGNIFICANT portion of that fight which is AMAZING. homegirl is NOT risking her hand getting cut off. slay. also, when she's going for power, she has a two handed grip and puts her ENTIRE body behind the thrust. very impressed. she's also got GREAT footwork and she is putting PRESSURE on gold by advancing and pushing him back.

now, in her fights with gideon, she does a lot of very awkward and stiff two handed grip. girl PLEASE do not get lower to glance off, step to the SIDE. she falls back into big wide swings but she was going through something. i KNOW that's contradictory to what i said about killian, but EVERY other time she has powered through and this is the exception.

judgement: as much as i was making fun of her, we only see a few blunders most of which she was always going to survive because of how big a simp hook, not to mention those were within her first few DAYS of having a sword. she then went on to become who i think is the best swordfighter in the whole show, so emma clears all

Not every character needs to change to prove the Main Point. Sometimes a character, like Sonic or Captain America, embodies the Main Point, and then every character around them is changed by them.

For example, Captain America embodies “The Price of Freedom is High, but I Can Trust Others to Sacrifice For it With Me.” He believes that at the beginning of Winter Soldier, and he never changes; he believes it all the more even after the organization he was working for betrays him. The characters who see that he embodies that ideal and change based on his example are Natasha Romanoff and Nick Fury.

Nat and Fury start the movie believing that, if put to the test, nobody else can be trusted to pay the price for freedom. So they have to lie and spy to stop threats before they start. But by the end, Fury is willing to sacrifice his secrets and Nat is willing to sacrifice her life, because Cap showed them that other people can be trusted to sacrifice for freedom.

Or Sonic. In just about every game, Sonic embodies the main point of: “Keep Moving Forward to Do What’s Right.” He literally never, ever changes. When he falls he gets back up. When he fails he keeps going. When he’s facing impossible odds, he jumps right in the face of them. Even his gameplay is all about maintaining momentum, getting that momentum back when you get hit.

He doesn’t change, but the characters who interact with him do. Tails constantly follows Sonic’s example of solving problems even after he’s made a mistake. Amy goes from waiting on the sidelines and thinking only about what she wants to finding her own way to help. Shadow goes from literally being stuck in the past, one way or another, to just deciding who he is and how he wants to do the right thing based on the present; moving forward.

I think that “characters of Change” are OFTEN the main character, but not ALWAYS, and some of the most enduring characters are actually just static.

[nerdgatehobbit]

The big reveal in "Sons of the Fathers" that Mr. Foley has racist views that Richie was trying to prevent Virgil from finding out. He even attempted to ensure that Virgil wouldn't be there at the same time as his father, but there was a sudden change at Mr. Foley's workplace. It's probably a mix of not wanting to have his friend hurt by hearing that sort of talk and not wanting to fully admit just how harmful his father's views are to someone outside his family. As a teen, Richie has limited ability to push back, especially if part of him was afraid that he'd lose the Hawkins' support for having a father like that. It seems like Mrs. Foley's views are closer to her son's than her husband's, but it's unclear if she can't or won't push back.

In conclusion: dinner time at the Foleys' goes badly as Virgil learns the hard way why Richie didn't invite him over before this point. Virgil leaves early, leading Richie to yell at his father, again putting Mrs. Foley silently in the middle.

The good news is that Virgil has a supportive father who can help him process his feelings and help him understand what's going on. It is interesting that the show only presents the second conversation the next day, rather than the initial discussion that presumably started with 'why are you back so early?'. Robert reminds Virgil that Richie broke the "cycle of intolerance" and is still in need of his friendship.

I'm wondering if Robert suspected that something was amiss at the Foley house for Richie to be spending so much of his free time at their house, especially given his work at the community center. That would further explain why Sharon was the one to complain, if Robert had a suspicion that Richie didn't want to be at his own home.

After all, Robert doesn't comment on whether or not he had any idea that Richie was dealing with something at home.

It's odd that the focus is more on Richie than Virgil, but I can appreciate the show demonstrating that even though it's the right thing to do, it can be challenging and have consequences to confront racists head-on, especially in cases like Richie's, where he's a minor who is dependent on him for food and shelter.

Mrs. Foley calls the Hawkins' house, because they thought Richie had ended up there. Richie's previous scene had involved him slamming his bedroom door, so his actual departure isn't shown. I suspect it was more along the lines of Richie sneaking out once his parents were asleep. She does attempt to apologize, I think, but Virgil just sympathetically cuts her off.

To be fair, she can't be held accountable for her husband's views and it is clear that she doesn't share them, which might explain to an extent how Richie broke the cycle of intolerance, if at least one parent was partially modeling that for him. It's just strange that it doesn't seem to be a bigger problem in their marriage- though maybe it's not just Richie who can't risk the financial instability of not having a breadwinner, I don't know. Or the show is trying to demonstrate the flaws in not pushing back against hearing people express racist views. It could just be the show wanting Richie to have one semi-decent parent.

You want to know why King Gilgamesh chose to go back to Uruk and was very serious about becoming a king who ruled his people after the quest for immortality? [Connect to this hint]

Sonic Prime is the best example, Shadow tried to reason with Sonic and leave those friends behind because they were not real friends they knew. But why did Sonic give his life to his friends whom he met only briefly, even Nine?

Shadow: It's the end of the universe and you're still thinking about your friends! Sonic: Of course, I am! They're all here, fighting, sacrificing themself for me!

In the same way the people of Uruk, they're like Sonic's friends who suffer because of King Gilgamesh's actions. After Sonic knew it was his responsibility to destroy the world, the same way after King Gilgamesh realizes it was his fault for Enkidu's death and his people's suffering. Both Sonic and King Gilgamesh choose the right thing and never leave them behind, not because of their duty but because they're like their family to them. Even though they had never spent much time with these friends before.

Gilgamesh:  I had no reason to fear death. I could simply be there, in that era, presently invincible, and gaze upon the distant future with no need for the passage of time. — mankind’s oldest story. My duty as hero who would be spoken of in ages to come would be fulfilled. That’s all there is to the story. I was born as a human being, and after tasting joy, as a human being I died. I’m sorry. Earlier I said that I have been perfect since my birth, which was inaccurate.

he is king. he is god. he is neither, in the end. perhaps it is lonely.

(Note: "Mankind’s oldest story I was born as a human being." In Tsubasa of Phantasia, Gilgamesh grow to feel more human and gain more human emotions that's why he said that he's Mankind’s oldest story. Gilgamesh travelled and came back as "a normal human.")

Both Sonic and Gilgamesh never be a hero but because of their friends, they call Sonic and Gilgamesh as "Hero". You can see how much the people of Uruk care for King Gilgamesh just like Sonic's friends care for Sonic. This is the same reason why Punch Whalen chose to go back to her friends and never leave them behind, no matter how bad the action or betrayal of her friends. (And this is why Asha chose Punch and be by her side as her friend.)
