You ever read/watch/listen to something and it's great and you enjoy it deeply, but that enjoyment is dampened because you know already that none of the Material is gonna make it into your paracosm?

It's such a specific thing and it sucks :/

Now that Ghibli's new movie is coming out soon, I've been thinking about anime films and wanna talk about my favorite animated movie ever, Tokyo Godfathers.

TG is a 2003 tragicomedy by Satoshi Kon, following three unhoused people––an alcoholic, a runaway girl, an a trans woman––who find a baby in a dumpster and set off across Tokyo to reunite her with her parents.

If you like the sound of that, go watch it because the rest of this post is spoilers and I have FEELINGS about this movie.

URGHH, the fact that only two moments of true kindness, generosity, and care given to the three protagonists without any expectation of reciprocity are given by a Latin-American immigrant couple and a drag club full of queens and trans women. The fact that, despite her loud and dramatic personality, Hana is the glue that holds the team together and the heart of the whole movie. The fact that this movie pulls no punches at showing the violence and inhumanity committed by "civilized Japanese society" against the unhoused. The fact that Miyuki craves to be loved by her parents and ends up seeing Hana as her true mother. The fact that Miyuki starts off accidentally using transphobic language against Hana, but slowly begins calling her "Miss Hana" out of respect. The fact that, according to Kon, Hana's role in the story is as a mythological trickster god and "disturb the morality and order of society, but also play a role in revitalizing culture." The fact that Hana so desperately wants to be part of a true family, yet is willing to sacrifice her found family so they can be with their own, and is rewarded for her good deeds in the end by becoming a godmother. The fact that, throughout the movie, wind and light have been used to signify the presence of god's hand/influence (this movie's about nondenominational faith––faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in a higher power. Lots of religious are referenced, such as Buddhism/Hinduism, Christianity, and Shintoism), and in the climax of the film, as Hana jumps off a building to save a baby that isn't hers, a gust of wind and a shower of light save her from death. The fact that god saves a trans woman's life because she proved herself a mother, and that shit makes me CRY.

in germany, chris evan‘s roles (including steve) are mostly voiced by dennis schmidt-foß, but as johnny storm he‘s voiced by benedikt weber, and it made for a really cool moment during dp&w. bc wade’s super convinced that he‘s steve, but all the german people who watch the german dub of marvel movies religiously are already like huh??? bc that‘s NOT steve rogers‘ voice, and then when it’s revealed that he‘s actually johnny, wade‘s like "ah yeah, i should’ve known from the voice". and idk, it’s not hilarious or anything, but it just made me soo happy that they used wade‘s 4th wall breaks differently in different languages. just felt the need to share this

Me, looking at Unused Words: Wow, they could fix so many terrible hurtful things if they just communicated clearly!

Also me, entirely unable to communicate honestly with people close to me: This is fine! The damage is just part of life :)

COUNTDOWN TO LOWER DECKS SEASON 5 4 WEEKS – Cameos

[parasafterdark]

Ok, this got me into a bit of a Rabbit Hole cause uuuh Kuzan

Kuzan (original) is a character from One Piece, who has Ice Powers and is….an enemy (it’s complicated).

Kuzan (mine) is an Ice Elemental and the Captains First Mate and therefore an enemy (it’s complicated). They used to present more as amorphus ice based lifeform UNTIL they saw the One Piece Anime (cause that just existed in the ‘cosm) and just…copied Kuzan (original) entire thing. Presentation, mannerisms, most of their personality already overlapped so it went pretty smooth. And so they have been Kuzan (both) ever since

Now…does Kuzan (mine) count as a Fictpara?

I hope everyone with a para that started off as a fictpara but they slowly started becoming more of your own creation and less canon has a great day 𓆩♡𓆪

Transcript: I'm a pretty good liar. Done a lot of lying in my time. I've lied to men who wear belts, I've lied to men who wear suspenders. But I'd never be so stupid as to lie to a man who wears both belt and suspenders.
