it's so disappointing that we didn't get more of tomura and afo interacting after that huge revelation about afo being involved in his life from the very beginning. he had his dad giggling and kicking his feet. he even encouraged him to have another child. tomura thought afo finding him that day on the street was a coincidence, but it wasn't. none of it was, he was even given the quirk that killed his family then told he wanted every single one of his family members to die and that was born twisted for years after. he even thanked afo for making him for who he is today in previous chapters!
I wanted there to be an actual encounter between them where he is distraught that the man who he thought was his savior has been planning his downfall since before he was even born. I wanted more of afo telling him to his face how he has meant nothing to him and his usefulness begins and ends at him being a possible vessel for himself, and how he's never had any control over his life. then have tenko argue back against his words. to finally stand up to everything afo has tried to ingrain in him. to cast aside the name of tomura shigaraki which was the name he gave him and tell afo how he doesn't need him anymore. that he finally sees him for the pathetic man he truly is. I want to see afo's reaction to losing control over him permanently. izuku would also be helping him through this encounter as well, might write a fic about it tbh.
oh well best I can hope for now is tenko discussing his feelings about what was revealed in 419, that is if he survives. I have a feeling something will happen that will bring him back in some way based on how only the name tomura shigaraki was said but not tenko which is an important distinction to make. a tomura dies, tenko lives situation if you will.

okie okie i don't currently have the energy to elaborate on my thoughts, but a few things from the pmmm trailer i wanted to point out!!
the symbol homura is seen with when summoning the phone is mirrored in the gleam of the arrow seen later
the flower arch behind madoka has gears in it rather than flowers!!
also: could the mention of dreams in the trailer relate at all to the nightmares in rebellion?
oh, and i know ive seen people talk about walpurgisnacht making one half of an hourglass with gretchen, but i dont know if ive seen much about the gear that makes up walpurgisnacht's core and the relevance of gears to clocks & thereby their association with "setting back the clock" & homura. we see madoka crucified on a gear/clock in the original series when kyubey and homura are discussing the fate the latter has doomed madoka to
i think that's another point to the "homura becomes walpurgisnacht" theory!
these are just a few things i haven't noticed as much discussion of yet (sorry if theyve been pointed out before!!) i definitely want to elaborate more on my thoughts, but i am chronically sleepy, so ill probably do it in lil bursts ♡ id love for anyone who has thought on these elements to share!!
i hope you find reason to smile today, and dont forget to hydrate!! ♡

okay. i am now awake and semi-coherent and ready to talk about the blue lock movie. nagi and reo specifically because ohhhhhh my fucking goddddd they were made for me?????
a puppeteer and his devoted puppet??????? but they vow to be together always????????? they have a dynamic where reo exercises control over nagi but it’s never in a twisted sense, only something built on a very deep trust. nagi trusts reo’s judgement and doesn’t care about soccer anyway, only reo himself, so he doesn’t mind being puppeteered. it’s only when he realizes he actually enjoys it that he leaves reo behind — and even then it’s all for the sake of them being together in the end!!!! they’ll meet again on the other side!!!!!!!!!!
but it’s still so. fucking soulcrushing because reo might seem controlling, he might seem a little detached, but he cares for nagi so deeply and calls him a genius and trusts him in a way no one else does. he loves him so much. soccer was the first thing reo ever wanted for himself, nagi was the second. and nagi left him behind.
the concept of a doting puppeteer being left by his beloved puppet makes me batshit insane all on its own but the fact that their relation to each other is so genuine and kind just wrecks me. nagi is doing what he thinks is best for reo but he’s hurting him more in the process. reo wishes he could be happy for nagi, but he still cries because he doesn’t want to be alone. he doesn’t want nagi to walk farther than he can reach, even if that will stunt his growth. maybe he’d prefer him being under his thumb, always, willingly, never meeting his full potential;
and i think that makes reo feel so, so guilty.

one of my major flaws is that when I was like 11-12 I watched this several hour long series on youtube called the ship's closet w the camera quality of a potato that went into IMMENSE detail outlining how kirk and spock were canon & intended to be so. it also outlined the timeline of their relationship as intended by this canon. and so now every time I see any other interpretation of this timeline I'm like well that's nice but it's not canon. but technically none of it is blatantly canon and I would just look like this trying to explain why that particular interpretation isn't canon to the Actual Real Spirk Canonical Timeline

anyway, if anyone else here shares the passion for retrogames glitches i have, there's now a tool-assisted S3&K speedrun that corrupts the lock-on flag in the middle of the run and makes the game think it's only S&K, skipping half of the Sonic 3 stages. The creators have a full explanation here and it doesn't seem doable for humans sadly, but I'd love to be proved wrong it would be so funny to see this in a marathon
(obvious warning for flashing images/motion sickness for the video. the hedgehog does go fast)

Yuki Midorikawa really said I am going to make this silly little episodic shoujo manga. it's about this extremely androgynous young boy who can see spirits and his reluctant best friend & prominent drunkard Master Kitty Cat. it'll be the most utterly heartwrenching thing you've ever read. I'm talking ugly weeping. kneeling on the floor sobbing. anyways all his problems are caused by his mean teenage grandma beating up ghosts 40 years ago. every single chapter she's in will leave you feeling like you got stabbed in the gut btw
