#waven sadida kingdom

[cocogum]

For anyone who knows the answer, please tell me cuz it’s been bugging me for so long:

I once heard (don’t remember where) that somewhere in Waven, we can see the remains of the Sadida kingdom. The thing is, I don’t remember if I heard that this claim was just a theory, or if it’s actually true and we’ll see it in a new update.

Can someone just clarify if this is even correct?

[aishazero9i18r]

I was bored from grinding and getting beaten by a bunch of goats so i decided to check on my progress bar.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE HAVE “NECROWORLD” AS A PART OF EXPLORATION AREA IN WAVEN??

⚠️ Theory for season 4 finale ⚠️

In a older post I made, Tot mentionned that in the new game Waven, that happens after season 4, we will be able to visit the Sadida Kingdom's ruins!

This must means that the final fight will have great impacts on the kingdom. Also, in the new game, Yugo and Amalia are not present while the Percedal family is. Maybe they will be added after the tv show.

But I am really worried for Amalia! A lot of people think that she will somehow sacrifice herself for the kingdom. I am having heavy angst for Yumalia but at the same time, I am excited to see some more Yumalia moments.

I know, I know I'm a scratched record

But I'm dying to hear your thoughts on the Wakfu finale when you get to it!

I just finished watching it and it's uuh... hmm. I read people saying the finale was "satisfactory" but I am not fully on board with that sentiment.

Too much left unanswered, not enough wrapped up, too rushed to get to the end.

I know the Waven game is a continuation of sorts, it takes place decades after Wakfu's conclusion so that game might hold some answers or closure, buuuuttt... I'm not interested enough in the game to play and find out. I guess I've grown a bit tired of the whole cross-media info/lore some franchises love to do (like Blizzard and covering important info across the Warcraft games, books and short stories).

Wakfu season 4 obviously has an open ending, no matter that it is the final season, so who knows what might follow. I'm just a little saddened that the story picked up a little too late this season but the animation, particularly during action scenes, was pretty great... when not using the same static images of characters xDD They loved that a little too much but I understand the budget wasn't that big so I can't really fault Ankama for it.

Did I like this season? Mmmyyeeaaah, it's a mixed bag. Better than season 3 but not better than the first two seasons or even the OVA episodes. Glad it exists but I don't feel super satisfied with its conclusion.

HEAVY SPOILERS ahead, so be mindful but gonna share some thoughts:

Seeing Joris play a bigger part in the second half of the 4th season, and him vibing with Adamaï made me very giddy and happy. Love that for them, hope they become good friends. And thank fek neither of them died. RIP, Qilby, Armand and Brakmar (maybe?). The guys who needed to redeem themselves got their chance, at least.

Goddess Eliatrope was a big disappointment and an unlikeable character but I guess that was kind of the point...? Angry that she totally ignored Chibi and Grougal, like what the fuck even? Didn't even show a hint of acknowledgment towards them. What if they wanted to meet mom, huh?? And what even happened to Baltazar and Glip, who were in Emrub with the same kids that were asleep in Goddess Eliatrope's belly? What did she do with them?

But hey, at least my headcanon that the Sadida and Eliatropes will combine into a single kingdom/people (which I also wrote about in my Rebirth fic) actually happening was pretty satisfying x'D It even has Wakfu-infused trees, om nom nom.

A little frustrated with Necroworld (not the same Necroworld from the Transformers: Lost Light comics) because it's supposed to be a different planet in some other universe but it had dofus (dragon eggs) and races of the Twelve like Sadida, Sram and Sacrier. It was pretty confusing... Imo, it should have been something similar to The Upside Down (Stranger Things), or an alternate version of the world of Twelve rather than a completely separate place. But eh...

Why did nobody care about the state Inglorium was in, or that the Gods have disappeared? That bothered me so so so soooo much during the first two episodes; nobody non-Eliatrope or non-demigod cared that their God/Goddess was... well... gone. Aside from God Iop, where are they?? Hated the disinterest, hated the silence around it. Guess that's a mystery that will be unraveled in some other media.

Yugo grew tall and handsome and I'm not afraid to say it. Happy for him, though him suddenly growing so quickly was a bit silly. I figured there would be a time skip to justify his 'growth' that we saw in promotional images and teasers. Won't complain though, he deserved to finally be in a body that reflects his actual age, it took him long enough!

"Bootleg Alys" from the Dofus movie made a cameo in episode 11 which made me snerk. (I noticed a few more background characters from the movie that were re-used in episode 11.)

And that's all I have to say, at least here on Tumblr. It was quite a ride.

A big thanks Ankama and all the Kickbackers that made it possible; this show had its ups and downs over the past decade but it was enjoyable and loved. It still holds a special place in my heart and I will keep a tiny eye out for more Krozmos stuff in the future (like Welsh & Shedar, gimme!!).

[onyichii]

I went Geek Psycho 100

So I bought a few things from the Ankama shop and I just wanted to say my ass is such a geek for this! Back when I was broker than I am now, I used to want to order from their shop but that shipping cost gave me a dirty look. It looked at me like I was a poor. Which I was… but damn. Now that have a few more dollars I’m okay with the shipping as long as I’m getting my worth (plus shipping from this book store in Canada cost as much as shipping from France. So that made it okay with me as well).

Okay so here is what I got…

Yes…I bought the Yumalia necklace. It’s cute and reflective. If this shit fades in a week of wear I’m gonna be pissed. Because a necklace of this price—$70–should last long. They better have gotten a jewelry expert to test the craftsmanship (though I doubt it). I still think it’d be a good emblem for the new Sadida kingdom.

I ordered the Amalia tofu but they sent me Adamai. He’s cute too but not what I ordered. I want my Amalia Tofu.

So I sent a Missing Item Help Request and have not gotten a response. It's been over 7 days, and I hope they reply. I expect a response this week since France had a 2 day holiday last week. But that would be triflin' if they ghost me.

I was just adding whatever to my cart at this point because if I’m paying $30 in shipping I gotta have a ton of stuff in there (that’s my logic). I like foxes and recall this character from s2 of Wakfu… I think. So into the cart he went.

I got the god Ecaflip piggy bank. I was just browsing the shop to see what they had because they didn’t have anything Wakfu that interested me. And this caught my eye. They had two versions but were sold out of the other version. And the other version is so cute ⬇️

I already have a coin bank!

Yup—the pig from Toy Story! He holds my coin well! Now he and Ecaflip can hold them together! I might start putting my foreign money in Ecaflip or USA dollar coins (which exist but are rare). I have two USA dollar coins because i conned them from my brother. He acquired them from a store but didn’t know what they were. he just thought it was change …but I knew. the moment I saw them, I knew! Muhahaha! I told him after he gave it to me! 😈

I also got free goods!

I wasn’t expecting the bag to be this big!!!!

They give you measurements of the bag but I didn’t convert it to US metrics and just assumed it was standard size. I am 5 feet 9 inches (175 cm). This bag covers most of my torso.

I guess I’m set grocery shopping now! This will be my one trip bag!

Lastly, I got this key chain.

I think it’s ugly…. But it was free so I took it.

Ankama gives you a code to get the bag and keychain for free. They’ll send it via email if you leave something in your cart. They'll email you and try to seduce you to buy it.

The Wakfu category of the Ankama shop was not “giving” to me. I wanted more stuff from the animated series like stickers, art prints, and etc of the cast. Maybe even a cool class hoodie.

They did have Waven stickers of the classes you can play as. I would have bought one if they had Sadida on there but they did not.

Liveblog: Wakfu Season 1 (episodes 13-18)

Episode 13 - Calm Blue Sea

It might be hard to believe now, but when I first watched the show, my favorite character was Nox.

I don't think about him often anymore, but I still really like him. This episode is one of the first ones where we get glimpses at his backstory, which is fun.

(Geez, I'm predictable for liking characters who are over a hundred years old and care a lot about their families...)

Another reason this episode is big is Soft Oak's death. 1. He's a lore character, I suppose, and 2. I like to headcanon that this is the reason Joris went to Sadida Kingdom.

It's just a silly little headcanon but to elaborate (and sadly, go a bit forward in terms of episodes):

Soft Oak was the friend of the tree of life.

2. Nox seems to have been a bigger issue for the world than shown in the series, considering the fact that Yugo says he's ravaged countries/other reasons.

Bonta and Sadida Kingdom seem to be on good terms — so it would be reasonable to assume that if Nox began going after great tree entities of the world, it would pose a threat to Sadida Kingdom. This opens the possibility that Joris was sent there for this reason, at the time of episode 13 or later.

The timing would also be appropriate — Joris arrives in Sadida Kingdom just a bit before the Brotherhood of Tofu. Though we do not know the route he took.

Chopsticks spotted...! At this point, I'm beginning to believe they're just very common in this world, and as widely used as forks and spoons.

Episode 14 - Moon Island

[guy who is mentally ill about fishing in this franchise voice] guys imagine Kerubim, Atcham, and Joris on a ship. Competing against one another in fishing.

I really like knowing all the various superstitions in this world because, y'know, Ecaflips love those doubly.

My honest reaction to this moment, as well as all moments involving the night sky and cosmos, in this franchise:

[guy who talked too much about this fucking fruit in previous liveblogs and is now obligated by law to mention it voice] This piece of dialogue tells us that this fruit is actually kinda on the expensive side.

Your daily reminder that Joris has canonically been to Kanniball island and the only things he had to say are "nice locals. don't stay for dinner."

Episode 15 - Adamai

Do you think Adamai's bond with a crackler makes him more or less likely to fucking hate Joris in Waven times.

Rare "Eva Taking an L" moment. A real "You still believe the earth revolves around the sun at your age?" sort of line for her to say.

Episode 16 - The Eliacube

Adamai forgot to account for old man stupidity.

Even though I have issues with how his arc of descent into batshit insanity and subsequent redemption were handled, I do want to say that I have always thought that this + Grougal's death was when the darkness began to grow within him.

Episode 17 - Grougaloragran the Eternal

No commentary. This is a legendary episode.

Episode 18 - The Brotherhood of the Tofu

Please don't throw rocks at me, but I'm not the biggest fan of how Pinpin and Eva's relationship was handled. They're cute together, but the decision to give them drama the second their relationship became canon was a bit... jarring, on the first viewing.

[geekgirles]

Your writing of the gods’ interactions and relationships with each other in “The Doll and the Dragon” is so on point that I wouldn’t be surprised if it was revealed that Cra and Sadida have a great relationship with each other BECAUSE OMG CRA SINGS A NATURE SONG IN WAVEN.

She actually sings four songs but the first one called “Nature” is literally just her singing about, you guessed it, NATURE. Something that she isn’t supposed to be talking about, let alone sing, given her role!

All the songs that she sings are in English by the way. No matter if you change the language when playing, it doesn’t matter. The song stays in English.

She sings how she and the people will be welcomed by nature and be protected by it.

This girlie is literally singing a whole ass song about it!! SHE’S THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS SHE’S OBVIOUSLY FRIENDS WITH THE TREE MAN-

CRA AND SADIDA HAVING THE CLOSEST FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN THE GODS CONFIRMED ‼️😭‼️😭‼️😭‼️😭‼️💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛

(I just love the idea that one of the MANY reasons why Cra likes him is probably due to the fact that he might just be the only one in the god group who doesn’t oversexualize her to no end since he’s a literal plant lol)

Hello, again!!

Thank you so much for your kind words and OMG THIS IS AMAZING????

Not gonna lie, one of the reasons I wrote Cra and Sadida as close friends is mostly to reflect canon. Both as a reflection of Amalia and Eva's bond until I get to introduce our blonde bombshell into the AU and also because the Cra and Sadida are close allies by virtue of the Cras stationed in the kingdom back in season one and their use of Sadida wood to make their bows.

It'd just make sense if their symbiotic relationship were an extension of their gods' own friendship, you know?

Honestly, maybe this is me being biased given my love for Amalia and her people, but Sadida is also my favourite god. I'm not saying he is without flaws, since his own involvement in the Lacrima debacle is almost as iffy as Iop's role in it, but he seems to be chill overall?

The fact that all his daughters were literally made by him as opposed to the rest of the demigods, moreover, the fact that he actually wanted them to live with him in Inglorium when most, if not all, other demigods are left to their own devices on the World of Twelve sort of speaks volumes about his true character.

He seems like an involved father for the most part.

Maybe it is because he is indeed a plant, but his not having countless children proves he has less of a wandering eye than most gods. So it'd only make sense that he doesn't hypersexualise Cra, as you said.

In fact, you can see his true nature (pun non-intended) through his people: the Sadida and their powers clearly take inspiration from voodoo which, while far more complex than TV will have you believe, does have a bad rep. And yet the Sadida are the kindest dark magic users you'll ever find. They're a peaceful kingdom more concerned with protecting their forests than waging war.

And I just love that for them.

So yeah, I'm going to be pretty smug if it turns out Cra and Sadida are besties.

THIS JUST IN: Wakfu Season 5 is reportedly in development, greenlighted and confirmed -- says Ankama Animations and France Televisions [#K5NewsFMExclusive]

(Written by Rhayniel Saldasal Calimpong / Freelanced News Writer, Online Media Reporter and News Presenter of OneNETnews)

ROUBAIX, FRANCE -- French entertainment company & public broadcaster 'Ankama Animations' and 'France Televisions' revealed on Wednesday night (June 12th, 2024 -- France local time) on social media that the most highly anticipated and popular animated series 'Wakfu' officially greenlighted, and is in development for Season 5, which supposedly the 4th and final season pushed back to one more season within the next several years to come.

In an exclusive visual poster photo on Instagram (part of Meta Platforms Inc. [MPi]), per first obtained by K5 News FM: Dumaguete… Mr. Yugo Sharm, who was the adult Eliatrope individual, and recently married with Princess Amalia Sheran Sharm, where portals open to seek what was happening in his next story-driven adventure, sometimes his life after a steamy married couple (YuMalia) in Sadida Kingdom.

Show creators themselves at 'Ankama Animations', citing from the American news magazine 'Variety' and 'Deadline Hollywood' that the aforementioned French entertainment company acquires a minority stake with 'INTHEBOX'. While the anime-inspired independent animation company 'Studio Unagi' eyes with larger development slate of projects ramp up its production volume.

Yet, a 'Wakfu' franchise spin-off, revealing a brand new free-to-play roleplay gaming 'Waven' of 'Ankama Games' may soon have a potential adaptation under the same name as a French animated series or a movie, if all goes into the plan. The old and familiar faces are a different account, aside from a televised French animated production of the main protagonist charter of the franchise for Mr. Yugo Sharm.

As you may remember in context, some months ago this year in 2024, at the end of Season 4 finale episode… A momentous occasion between 'Yugo' the Eliatrope and Princess Amalia Sheran Sharm, the beloved main protagonist character couples of the series are now finally united in marriage at the majestic Sadida Kingdom. The union of Mr. Yugo Sharm and Prncs. Amalia Sheran Sharm marked a significant milestone in their journey together for all these years. A beautiful sunset over the kingdom as its warm orange-like glow fell upon the newlyweds via portals. The kissing ended in cliffhanger to wrap last new episodes.

Things are in dark turn for lovemaking after marriage as a French cartoon show for mature audiences as a follow-up, per the latest manga webtoon comic sequel of 'Wakfu: The Great Wave' - Chapter 1, which is way too dark to sell for public broadcasters on a French kids and teens programming block 'Okoo' for France 4, since this webtoon manga chapter is no longer animated, and in part for the renewal development of Season 5 in production at 'Ankama Animations'.

Case in point, edited versions in most of its episodes for targeted demographic of kids and teens may be possible on national TV aside the sex scenes from the start in manga webtoon comic sequel, while the potential uncensored bits was subject for the approval to the public French broadcaster, if later fitted for the mature-rated content to 'France TV Slash'. Along the way, the Season 4 finale of Wakfu not only left fans in awe of the beautiful union between Mr. Yugo and Prncs. Amalia, but also set the stage for new adventures and challenges in the upcoming 5th Season.

Meanwhile, the news of the 5th Season of Wakfu comes as a joyful surprise to its fans worldwide, especially in the Philippines, United States of America (U.S.A.), Canada and across the globe. The show lovers among us are up for another fantastic new season from creators at 'Ankama Animations' and 'INTHEBOX'.

With the previous seasons having left traditional and online streaming viewers at suspense, this upcoming season is bound to create even more excitement, fantasy and thrillers that will be made on large screens on television and online.

You can relive the excitement of 'Wakfu', streaming now on the 'Okoo' app and on 'France TV' website, while you wait for potentially extra final 5th Season. Netflix is also available globally for you to stream at your own time.

So, here is some lore I cooked for her, considering I noticed some people curious.

Let's say that Josephine's mother wasn't so much welcome at Bonta, so she had to leave even when Josephine was very young and needed her. Basically, Josephine was raised mainly by her father, without knowing about the destiny of her mom. Joris in this case never wanted to talk about so much about the woman with his daughter, and this could another reason why Joris isn't so used to be affectionate with people. During teenagerhood, Josephine subscribed at Huppermage's school, because during puberty the magical powers were activated. Despite the father's problem with magic, Josephine was born with the magic talent of her grandparents. And the fact she is known as the niece of Jahash and Julith bring to Josephine a lot of duties and responsibilities. It's possible saying that this fact brought her a lot of stress, and during this period Josephine had to take a lot of pills against stress (she keeps taking them). In the end she got the degree and entered in Bonta's court as huppermage for the court. So many duties to do, you know. And this is how she became the ambassador for Bonta. Josephine befriended in this period with one of the courtesans, princess Angelique, the sweet daughter of the royal family. But in every case, Josephine had the opportunity to meet the other kings and queen, and naturally she met the royal Sadida family. She has a good relationship with them. But what Josephine would do during the Wakfu seasons, you would ask to me. Well, let's try to say it. Josephine would be naturally defend the Sadida kingdom against Nox, siding her father, casting her magic (Fireball intensifies) and protecting her father Joris. And during the second season Josephine is again with her dad during the meeting among kings and queens, as ambassador for Bonta. Our lady is fascinated by the behaviour of Qilby, but it's just a platonical thing. About the OVAs... well. Josephine knew that Harebourg is a walking red flag so she had to warn the Brotherhood of Tofu about him. So she would be very wary with him around, and tried to comfort Amalia for the wedding. But, in every case, Josephine would be very worried for her father too, and would try to get him free. But considering what happened, well, our girl had to fight against the Xelor and after the battle she felt so relieved for Joris. Now, let's pass to season four. For season four Josephine would be with her dad again, with the meeting of the nobles and so on. She comforts Yugo after the failed meeting with them, explaining about the behaviours of nobles. Probably she would even try to have a dialogue with the Goddess Eliatrope herself, to find an agreement for those eyes that stares at the world (you know they are a lil creepy). But you know, it's pretty hard when  your queen Astra isn't enthusiast for the idea. Anyway. Josephine would go with Yugo and company in the Necrome world, probably she hopes to get a dialogue with Toross too to stop him, but as she sees how he acts, and what he says to her dad, she is disgusted and casts her magic (Fireball intensifies) against Toross during the fight. Of course she runs away with the others, leaving Yugo alone to face his destiny. She would be feel guilty for this, but what she has to do afterall? Anyway. Josephine would help Joris to set free Nora, and in order to protect him again she would create something like an air shield to defend him.

And what about the manga "The great Wave"? Well. Josephine would be here to congratulate Amalia and Yugo for their marriage (ambassador thing) and probably would have a sort of trigger when Grougalosalar appears and Julith too. But in this case, she would not to dialogue with them for political things, it's more like what they have done to her dad (again, I don't think Joris would be enthusiast of talking about his past. I think).

But anyway, Josephine would have a sort of crisis during Waven era because she lost her world she was used to have. Probably she would try to isolate herself, but the friendship with a female Astramantis named Pallas, a royal guard sent to protect her, would give to Josephine the opportunity to adapt in the new world.

(To be continued)

My comfort oc Josephine Jurgen

She works as ambassador for Bonta, mainly

She does her best to stay in touch with her family, and she has a little bit of dragon blood.

[cocogum]

Reassuring proof that the sadidas are very much alive and well in the Waven era:

In the Lance Dur webtoon, a sadida appeared in the 4th chapter called “The Sickness of Lance Dur”. Lance Dur is far older than the last time we saw him in Season 4, meaning that more than a decade had passed which was after the wave had happened. (Waven happens 10 years after the Wakfu era)

In Waven, if we look around on Astrub Island, we can see a female sadida gardener looking for some shrubs. Her quest info does not reveal her race but her skin complexion as well as her hair color matches the sadida race perfectly.

(this woman was looking for some sentient shrubs by the way...don't ask why...)

We also notice a male sadida and a female sadida eating together in an inn in Amakna.

One of Waven’s quests has Renate, an (iconic) sadida, asking you to help him with the smells of a temple. He is not only a sadida but is also a royal servant of Amalia.

Renate doesn't seem to be near Canar this time around but looks to be well. He’s even joined one of Waven’s four cardinal clans, which in his case, is the nature clan.

In Waven, we can see a small music sadida band playing in Amakna.

When we take a look at Waven’s emotes skin shop, we can see three Sadida god reaction stickers. If Sadida had lost his godly status (meaning if he died), then his stickers wouldn’t have been present in the shop. The emotes skin shop currently has three reaction stickers for Iop, Cra, Eniripsa, Ecaflip, Enutrof, Sram, Sadida, Xelor, Sacrier, and Feca.

*Reaction stickers are not available for Osamodas and Pandawa at the moment*

In the Bestiale teaser trailer, which is a show that will take place in Waven, two sadidas can be seen in the background when Yrehn, our osamodas main character, is visiting a market.

One of these sadidas, however, seems to be someone we already know: the one on the left is Chamberlain Thicktuft, the counsellor or advisor (?) of the Sadia kingdom. He appeared in every season (excluding Season 3) and has even been seen in The Great Wave manga attending the banquet for the male sadida and female eliatrope marriage.

So why is he in the Bestiale teaser? No idea.

Aside from the Sadida proof listing above, another thing people noticed were the cras in Waven. Or rather their weapons.

When we take a look at each cra and their types, none of their weapons remotely look like the ones we’ve seen in Wakfu or Dofus anymore. Back in Wakfu, the cras were in an alliance with the sadidas which is why their bows were primarily made of special wood. Evangelyne was a good example of this.

So when we compare Wakfu to Waven, the cras now have more than one choice of weapon :

Arcarius Paladir replaced their bows with a much more efficient trajectory leafy-like weapon.

Blunderbust have adopted a steampunk style and chose to use guns that shoot arrows.

Buneblade have abandoned long-range weapons of any format entirely and opted to use boomerangs instead.

Piven Bow might just be the only type we know who still uses the old cra style by keeping the bows. Their name even has the word “bow” in it.

Shaden Shiru just like the Buneblade, threw out the bows to use knuckle ring-looking weapons as their main source for fighting.

Zandiezer Zo relies on a stoned glove in the shape of a crossbow that can emit long-range shots.

Given that most cras have preferred using other weapons than the bow, this leaves us to speculate that the alliance between the cras and sadidas is indefinitely over and might have possibly ended after the Necrome war or a bit later.

Other than that, it’s reassuring to know that the sadidas have at least survived the great wave since the tree of life had to have been protected and now resides somewhere safe and hidden from the world.

Waven is currently in progress, so there is still a lot to discover and learn about what happened after the great wave struck. When more updates drop, there might also be more islands to explore which could reveal more about the sadidas’ situation.

[cocogum]

Renate scares me in Waven.

Of all the characters who give quests for adventurers, Renate especially worries me the most because how are you going to give me quests on Pig Island and be the only one who talks about the palace like you live there now???

He gave multiple quests at Pig Island, some of them different from others, but this one really made me worried because he says "EVERY YEAR" before stating the problem.

Waven happened 10 years after Wakfu so like wdym??? During those 10 years, which were slowly morphing into the next era Waven, you were living here and calling it your home??? Cuz why would you be so casual when addressing the palace hallways AS IF YOU WORKED THERE?????

Renate is the only one who repeatedly gives you quests on Pig Island. Like, yeah, other characters give you quests over there from time to time too. BUT THEY'RE NOT AS FREQUENT AS RENATE THO.

Again, wdym "every year"??????

Either I'm overthinking all of this, and he's just saying it to be general, or something severe had happened right under our noses that would have made Renate change his entire workplace.

Either way, I need the Sadida Kingdom already.

I NEED MORE WAVEN UPDATES TOT

Liveblog: Wakfu Season 1 (episodes 10-12)

note: I'm releasing these 3 episodes' liveblog separately from the rest because I have some things to say this time dfhgjsdfg.

Finally, finally, finally: we have arrived at my favorite dystopia in the history of fiction. This is what I've been waiting for...

I find it funny how passionate he was about Bonta this whole season — only to now admit he hasn't been here for ten years.

Bontaboo.

Important world building notes: in Wakfu era, Bonta has cable cars and trams!

I need to lock Joris and Eva in a singular room and force them to talk about Ogrest's Chaos/Leorictus Sheran-Sharm/Everything That Bonta Has Done In Waven.

Whether they agree on anything or not, the bloodshed would be wonderful.

That's... quite a high-tech thing to see.

Amalia confirmed to have come to Bonta to see gobbowl games!

Using this information, I can imagine anything.

With so many people present, I like to imagine that Joris is in the crowd. Watching. Hoping really hard that Amalia being here will not become a political incident and also his problem <3

And yes, I have reasons to believe that Joris is still within Bonta at this time. But it'll be easier to explain during the episode where I think he finally leaves for Sadida Kingdom.

Version of gobbowl that Joris likes and approves of, folks. Though Brakmarian gobbowl isn't better.

Then again, Joris is into this sort of stuff, canonically...

The "buying of cheating time" and "the audience decides some random stuff to make it all more difficult" are probably something that's very appealing to him in sport. Both as a player and as an audience member.

Maybe this is why there are cups with Kerubim's face on them later in the series. Maybe Bontarians do this to anyone who gets famous for something.

Anyway I think Joris probably has merch of like, every team that has won ever, and has had multiple mental escapades trying to decide if it is normal to own merch that depics people he's kinda-sorta-friends-but-maybe-not-and-not-very-close-anyway-so-maybe-acquaintances(?) with.

(He's a fanboy. But only a little bit.)

[geekgirles]

Since a lot of the ideas from the kickstarter changed with the development of season 4 and, as far as I know, the Sadida ruins are still unaccessible by users, I'd say we must wait first for whatever drops first: those stages in Waven or the Webtoon episodes showcasing it (my money's on Waven because the Webtoon promises to be a long run).

Until then, I like to imagine that's what Yugo did because such kind of power has already been used several times for him to not rely on it to save Amalia and their people!

I mean, that's how the Eliatrope children were saved aeons ago and how Yugo dealt with the Zenit falling into the World of Twelve. I refuse to believe sending the Sadida Kingdom to another dimension is not an option now that he's almost all-powerful.

And the portals from the fused Kingdom from the kickstarter, alongside the Tree of Life surviving, would actually explain why there are Sadida milling around both in Waven and Lance Dur. Because it would mean Yugo and his people worked to ensure the Sadida wouldn't be isolated like the Eliatrope children were for millennia.

Anyway, whatever happens, this is my new canon now.

look I’m never gonna shut up about the kickstarter and what could’ve been or what could be because today @geekgirles bring up the idea that will Yugo transport the sadida kingdom into its own dimension which I think will happen

I mean just look at the gap in the world of twelve it’s like someone just picked it up and left and the way the sadida kingdom is just plopped in the middle of who knows where, I feel like this is what’s gonna happen because I just can’t imagine yugo doing anything that would harm and set the eliatropes farther back than they already are

Okay, but if you look closely at the second picture, you can see how those are the Sadidas' cabins, meaning that is indeed the Sadida kingdom.

Because I refuse to accept they will kill my girl despite Waven confirming the Sadida kingdom is in ruins, I've come up with a theory.

First of all, if this guy ends up being Yugo (which is most likely, given he seems to be using either the Dofus or the Eliasphere), then there must be a reason why he'd want to use its powers despite knowing how much it can cost him as a result of both his battle with Ogrest, the Eliotropes' creation, and the state of Toross' own world due to his own misuse of his Dofus.

The real question is, what would be severe enough as to push him to break his own self-imposed rules like that?

And I've been thinking, maybe this is his way of protecting both his people and the Sadida kingdom. What if he eventually came to the same conclusion as Harebourg and decided the only way to keep their people safe was to separate them from the rest of the Twelvians?

(I haven't played Waven, so I have no idea how the Sadida kingdom even looks like, so I might be sorely mistaken—and in denial).

After all, in both the OVAs and season 4, it was a major plot point that no other kingdom seemed to actually care about the Sadida. No one offered their support during Ogrest's Chaos or against the Nécromes; not even the Osamodas King was willing to help despite his own daughter being queen.

And the Eliatropes, Yugo's people, are also outcasts! Despite Yugo's reputation, no one wants them around, except for the Sadida. And now both peoples have been joined as one with the marriage of their respective rulers. Do we seriously believe the other kingdoms won't give Amalia grief for her decision despite the Eliatropes being the only ones who stepped up to help them despite also being the only ones who could have escaped?

That'd would be a waste of a completely valid plot point.

And as @cocogum pointed out once, Canar and Renate, Amalia's maids, are still around in Waven, which can only mean one thing: whatever happens to destroy the Sadida kingdom, it doesn't wipe the Tree of Life out, for that would mean all Sadidas would have died.

(Let's ignore the possibility of Amalia becoming the next Tree of Life out of utter and terrified denial, shall we?)

So if you ask me, what caused the Great Wave was Yugo using the Power of the Dofus/Eliasphere to send their kingdom to a different dimension where they could live in peace, like what they did with the Eliatrope children. Either as a solution to a different cataclysm or a response to the other races never accepting them, that I don't know.

What I mean to say is we could still get this^^^^

Edit: Adding to this, from what I've seen from watching Waven videos, there's practically no Wakfu in Waven. Now, Armand stated in season 4 their kingdom is the lung of the World of Twelve, so maybe the Wakfu shortage is a direct result of their disappearance—a tragic reminder to the other rulers of how they all actually needed the Sadida to thrive.

I will forever mourn the fact that we didn’t get this in the show IT LOOKS SO COOL ! There’s so many little details like that the throne is made to look like the wing of the eliatrope people, the Dofus are in the throne, the “windows “ on the walls are portals (kinda like the eliatrope goddess), and behind Yugo we can see the symbol of the primordial eliatropes

Also this is exactly what I expect the Sadida kingdom to look like in the manga or I will cry

For how much they are put in danger they do have a pretty shitty life ;;

They are one of my favourite races but man if they always get the short end of the stick

Always very passive, even if they are one of few to use dark magic-

Hoping they get their redemption in waven (delusional) , mostly because I remember I read somewhere that we will be able to visit the ruins of the sadida kingdom so I suppose they did something to tree of life

A Sadida’s life is traumatizing.

From the moment you are born, your life, your whole existence, is instantly tied to the earth and the tree of life that stores up all the others who have been born before, with, and after you.

You tend to become very protective of the Tree of Life because not only is it the source of all life and nature, but it is also your own.

It is a beautiful fragile sacred tree that stores your core but you cannot live without it.

If it dies, you die.

If it is sick, chances are, some odd things will happen to you.

If it gets its energy sucked out, you die.

If anything, no matter how small or big, affects the tree, you are in critical danger.

You cannot leave the planet without it. You cannot go anywhere in the krosmoz without it. You cannot run away from danger without it. You cannot be anywhere without it.

Your destination ideas are limited simply because your own life is not permitting you to go further than what is only needed and you know it.

You are heavily dependent on the tree that holds your life in its hands to the point where you have dedicated your life to protect it by training yourself to be one of its soldiers or by simply living near it to feel safer.

You get to witness so many dangers and calamities going after your tree for containing so much of you so you always have to fight back but lose so much after.

No other race is like you or has this problem. This dependence on a source that holds your life is unheard of by others who do not share your identity.

It’s clear to see that a sadida’s life painfully reflects the life of an actual plant where all they do is stay in one place and have specific restrictions to their lifestyle.

Because just like a plant, sadidas are literally rooted to BE a part of the very thing that keeps them in place and have a high chance of dying if even a single enemy manages to hit their weakest point. Because when that happens, if just one dies, they all die.

Abso-fucking-lutely

I legit can't understand the disrespect Amalia gets from everyone, even the other royals, I mean??? Even Yugo, who's an Eliatrope, the race the Twelvians have come to despise, is a well-respected figure who gets his title recognised by the other kingdoms due to his heroics. Um, the same heroics Amalia always had some part in as well, you mean? Where is her due respect??

She is the Sadida princess. She has battled whenever her kingdom needed her just like Oakheart and Armand, not to mention all the people she's helped on her adventures. Why is it that only the Brotherhood of the Tofu ever sticks by her side?

Don't get me wrong, I get they're true companions and I love them to bits, but I mean... How come the Sufokians and the Pandawa didn't do anything at all???

Because both kingdoms are directly indebted to Amalia in particular. Without her strategies, Prince Adale's army wouldn't have been able to claim the Crimson Claws for themselves—fuck! They wouldn't have survived Rushu's attack! And the Thirsters didn't end up infecting more people thanks to both her allying herself with Pandiego and her salt-resistant bamboo.

Aside from how difficult and expensive that many characters might have been to animate and incorporate into the plot, I literally don't see why they couldn't have helped her. Where's the continuity???

And Aurora... I haven't been able to stomach her since she debuted. Literally only Wakfu character I genuinely dislike.

Her actions in season 3 were super sus, no wonder Amalia hates her. First, the blatant contempt she feels for Amalia, then, her trying to meddle with her life even after she made it clear in the OVA she was done letting others dictate her life.

And now this? Woman had zero development whatsoever.

I know things will only get worse (thank you Waven and Manga 👍), but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of diplomatic meetings were to await Amalia.

First of all, because Yugo is now her king consort, just like she is the Eliatropes' queen consort. Given how much they love each other, I'm sure she's going to be fighting tooth and nail to ensure his people (most of them literal children, let's not forget) get to live in the World of Twelve, most likely alongside the Sadida. And when that meets resistance from the other nations, I hope she gets to call them out on their hypocrisy on how they were willing to ignore the Eliatropes' warnings and let her people die, let one of their own die, while the very same race they despise were the only ones who stepped up and helped.

It's going to be some interesting meetings, that's for sure.

But yeah. Stan the Sadida, fuck the Osamodas.

I'm sorry, but as of right now the Osamodas are my least favourite class if only because their entire royal family are a bunch of fucking assholes.

First, the Osamodas king, clearly trying to manipulate Armand into ruling how he thinks is best while simultaneously looking down on his kingdom. Then his blatant disrespect towards Amalia despite her clear experience dealing with crises and the fact that she's the best informed person around. The fact that he either refused to ask the other kingdoms for help on behalf of the Sadida or he at the very least neglected to send some troops of his own to help the allied nation his own daughter married into, instead telling her to turn tail as soon as things get bad.

And then there's Aurora who actually listened to him. Despite her feelings for Armand being genuine and mourning his loss (and the fact that, admittedly, Amalia refusing to let her near his bud definitely hurt—but she was probably too in shock to want to let all she has left of her brother out of sight tbh), she did not hesitate to abandon the Sadida, who could not have been more distraught at the sight of their queen leaving.

They deserve whatever cataclysm leaves the Sadida kingdom in ruins instead.

My least favourite class, really. The only exceptions are Coqueline and Simone.
