#zack watches utena

[brave-symphonia]

Laying all the moments of Wakaba talking about Saionji, as she keeps going after Anthy, trying to kill her. And the way it just zooms in that shot of that leaf.

And how defenseless Utena feels in this fight. Not even fighting back. Especially when Wakaba grabs her by the hair. She won’t fight back, she won’t draw a sword against her friend.

And then there’s all of Wakaba’s issues that led to this, how she doesn’t feel like there’s anything special to her, that people like Utena could never understand what she goes through, what it’s like to feel like just another random person.

And then ending the fight with Utena grabbing her hands, saying that she doesn’t understand, but she knows that Wakaba is one of her closest friends and she’ll save her, before using Wakaba’s sword to cut the rose.

I really love this fight, probably my favorite of this arc.

Mini rant for media; free to ignore I will add shit to this list.

I hate how western people demonize any type of asian media and throw around dangeorus or beyond racist accusations.

A anime/Chinse book or series is deemed problematic because of certain themes.

Even tho those SAME themes, genre, story telling is ALSO prevelent in Western media, this weird holiour than thou mentality of trying to control another culture without looking at themselves is beyond gross.

For example, anime characters with certain body types and most have an anerusim when we say its an art style-

Look at steven universe, pearl and rose quartz or spinel. Characters that are OLD as fuck but have child like proportions and even pearl/Rose in their fusion dance with greg was erotic. So much WLW nsfw erotica/fanart was made of these characters and yet no one calls SU P*do bait.

Cuties is on netflix, girls in tiaras, also movies that have fucked up dynamics like;

13 going on 30, in that whole movie Jennas mental age WAS 13 while she was going around acting like an adult and even engaging in adult relationships. Time travellers wife, the utter grooming of this movie- or River Song being married to the Doctor from Doctor who, how the Doctor knew AMY POND as a child then kissed her as an adult he was disgusted but the writers WROTE THAT IN. Interview with a vampire how the movie had Cluadia kiss Louiee.

I can list SO many- also how toxic Western ROM coms are-

Then claiming that anyone who watches BL is just like men watching lesbian porn and fetishzie the lgbt communtiy- which is somewhat true and a valid argument! But it keeps assuming that ALL women who like BL don't have reasons for it.

like twilight or 50 shades of grey were cult classics and majority of women were the reasons it was so popular, but most like bdsm/dark tones in a relationship but since most men and women deal with domestic abuse to the point where its not funny, a fantasy is easier to indulge than a harsh reality.

Also MOST who like BL aren't even women, their LGBT themselves! male protags are more popular than female protags their is NO lesbain/trans/ase feminine equevilant of stories out there-

Also porn is porn, regardless if its straight gay or even fucking tentacles its porn the whole point is fetishisation it's not as if we conflate that with real life- what I'm just going to go to a zoo and kidnap an octopus!? Honestyl????

Good omens we have School of good and evil- awesome! But what about star trek, sherlock, destiel, klance, sherlock watson, stiles derek, steve/tony, etc etc. Where is the rivals to lovers in a ton of genre. Giving that anime is the only thing delievering is the reason why I watch anime.

I want feminisim? I watch sailor moon, cardcaptor, inuyasha, and kakeguiri.

If I want dark stories where the women go ape shit? Elfen lied, Utena, magical madoka, and so much more.

Its the fact the western media has 13 reasons why, netlfix YOU, sin city, idk name ANY movie by Zack synder I just- it's so fucking hypocritical. Because Media like celebrities or singers and influencers are way more gross and come across as sexual predaotrs. sex has been shoved down my throat since I was a kid as every celebrity was dancing in skimpy clothes singing about sex and this was during the time when kardashion came popular because she had a sex tape!

Its just annoys me when people point figures and act like a judge jury executioner when the west is JUST as bad with gross problematic themes. ugh I'm annoyed.

Lapidot Here, There, and Everywhere!

In this post, I'd like to note the fifteen Lapidot fics I've written to date, and leave it open in the event that I write more. All of these fics, currently, are within my "An Unlikely Alliance Against Evildoers" series (the master list for that is here), and comprise 15 of 30 fics within the entire series!

****

For short, I will be calling it "An Unlikely Alliance". In the future, it is always possible I will watch more. We'll see what happens.

"The Gems, and their newfound friends, still journeying across Etheria, try to recruit Mermista for a final battle with the Horde. Their adventures in Salineas, filled with mystery and intrigue, lead to unexpected discoveries which threaten to pull them apart...":

"As the Gems and princesses work together in a joint offensive to defeat the Horde once and for all, they inadvertently allow Samurai Jack, now mind controlled by the Diamonds, to make a bold move. In the aftermath of the Horde's demise, Adora is faced with a choice for her future, whether she will stay with her new friends or remain on Etheria...":

"Adora, Pearl, Carmen, Ivy, and Zack go to the nation of Japan on a journey to investigate an unusual disturbance. They learn “secrets” about the Gems themselves, specifically Lapis and Peridot, but find new friends. Their encounter with the “disturbance” causes grief, lasting trauma, and disrupts existing friendships, especially for Carmen and one of their new friends. What happens therein is a tale of discovery, horror, and companionship…":

"Carmen and Utena remain scarred from the horrifying sights in Yokohama, Japan, but Peridot and Lapis have moved forward, and are realizing their dream to host a talk show. Even though this boosts everyone’s spirits, for Carmen, desperate times call for desperate measures, while Lapis, Peridot, Steven, Connie, Bismuth, and Pumpkin are drawn back to Japan to face evildoers who want to use the candy people to their own ends…":

"On two sides of the world, two groups face off against a legion of evildoers: Lapis, Peridot, Pumpkin, Stevonnie, and Bismuth in Japan, joined by Utena and Anthy, and Carmen, Adora, Pearl, Garnet, Amethyst, Julia, and A.C.M.E. agents assaulting V.I.L.E. Academy in the Canary Islands. While both groups face obstacles, can they defeat evil and restore balance to the world without creating additional complications?":

"In the aftermath of fighting in Japan and the assault on V.I.L.E. Island, the Crystal Gems and their newfound friends are divided across the world, some in Siberia, some returning to Beach City, and some remaining on the island. Adora pushes Peri to bring them all together, allowing her to connect with old friends in Etheria, Bow and Glimmer, and create new ones, causing emotional tension and conflict…":

"One week after the assault on V.I.L.E. Island and the fight in Japan, Adora, assisted by the Crystal Gems, goes on a date with Carmen Sandiego in the Floridian Archipelago. In the process, they grow closer as friends, but emotional tension grows, and they confront a new danger in the Tampa Lagoon, unknowingly manipulated by a person far out of their reach...":

"A month after Adora and Carmen's date in the Floridian Archipelago...Jules asks a private detective agency to help her find the perpetrator who robbed the V.I.L.E. Museum...immortals Mimi and Rin are on the case, joined not only by Carmen, but by Adora, Pearl, Lapis, and Peridot. Can they find the culprit...without being attacked by vicious 'angels,' who hunt for immortals, or the deadly assassin, Laura? Or will they be too late?":

"The Horde has been defeated and dehordification has begun. However, the trial of Catra is the first real test of the effectiveness of dehordification on the planet of Etheria. Will the tribunal members vote to convict? Or be swayed by unseen forces? Can Adora…and her newfound relationship survive the mental strain of painful memories and her new 'wild' attitude? Only time can tell…":

"The Diamonds send emissaries to Earth to deliver a message to Steven about an impending issue on their planet which they claim is beyond their control. Are they being honest with him about this problem, or are they trying to manipulate him for their own selfish ends? Regardless of the answer, the “peace” Steven thought existed on Earth has been shattered…":

"As the Diamonds prepare their Gem forces on Homeworld for a full-scale invasion of a far-off planet, can those on Earth keep themselves together without a mishap and disagreements that pull them apart?" Tumblr link: https://lefemmerougewriter.tumblr.com/post/189598328186/calamity-for-who-from-homeworld-to-beach-city

"As the Off Colors are about to leave Earth and travel across the universe to discover if the Diamonds have deceived Steven, they receive a message. Steven wants them to serve as ambassadors to Earth. They happily accept, but before this space trek can begin, they encounter a mystery ship which appears in Earth’s orbit! This story was updated on April 5, 2020." Tumblr link: https://lefemmerougewriter.tumblr.com/post/190470650286/bonnie-and-marcys-unnecessary-melee-with-the-off

"Steven and the Gems have a talk with the Off Colors about the battle with a spacecraft manned by Bonnie and Marcy, the latter who are now one year in the future. Everything quickly gets out of hand, as Steven’s temper flairs, leading them to their next adventure beyond the stars…" Tumblr link: https://lefemmerougewriter.tumblr.com/post/190612587071/lars-the-off-colors-fantastical-etherian

"Dimensional travel! Rhodonite interrupts the tranquility of Steven and the Crystal Gems in an attempt to help her beleaguered captain, Lars, and his comrades, fighting off an assault from the Great Diamond Armada. Steven and the Gems agree to help Rhodonite, but before they leave, Connie reports that Catra, Adora's friend (or more than a friend) from beyond the stars, is missing. Pearl, Adora's girlfriend, has something to do with the disappearance, but won't disclose it for fear of hurting Adora, despite possible repercussions on their relationship..."

"Marcy and Bonnie are off the hook for their “crimes” of entering Earth airspace without authorization after the conclusion by the panel. While Bonnie is breathing a sigh of relief, Marcy wants to strike back at the Earthlings for what they did to her and her girlfriend. Steven is first in the line of fire. Will Marcy’s emotions get the better of her or will restrain herself before she tries to turn Steven into a vampire? Will she listen to Bonnie’s reasoned pleas to stop her emotion-laden “revenge scheme”? Whatever the result, secrets will be revealed and people will be brought together in this final chapter of the saga of unlikely loose “alliance” against evildoers, who will go their own ways, as the world and universe are before them, coming together in a celebration of peace..."

I know some dislike this ship, noting that Peridot was confirmed to be asexual (by a storyboarder named Maya Peterson, but Rebecca Sugar hasn't, of yet, ever said anything on the matter), but personally I think they work well together and I don't mind the ship. Since Peterson also said that Peridot is aromantic, I'd say that Lapis and Peri could still be friends. Peri seems to be autistic too, but that has not been confirmed as of yet.

Yes, it’s one of those tag games.

Rules: tag people you want to get to know better and answer the questions.

Relationship status: Long-distance poly that used to be partly cohabitating poly.

Favorite color: Hot pink, fuchsia, basically if it’s sear-your-eyeballs pink I like it. It used to be indigo, but then I rediscovered my first color love. Purple and teal are also Very Good.

Favorite ships: So many, since I’m a hardcore multishipper, but right now I’m really enjoying Kingdom Hearts’ Riku/Sora/Kairi, Axel/Roxas, Repliku/Naminé, Aqua/Elsa (I know they never met in canon but LET ME DREAM), Vanitas/Wholeness, and Xehanort/Ansem the Dickhole/a woodchipper; every possible permutation of Yuri on Ice ships, including the clusterfuck that would be JJ/Isabella/Yurio/Otabek, and also Chris/everyone except Yurio, literally everyone, his partner is very understanding and equally nonmonogamous. Pairings I keep coming back to are DC’s Nightwing/Oracle, Batman/Catwoman, and Batman/Superman; the Whoniverse’s Jack Harkness/everyone and Doctor/Master; and Farscape’s John/Aeryn which owns my heart for the rest of my life probably. Kirk/Bones/Spock and Q/Jean-Luc/Lwaxana. Harry/Draco and Sirius/Remus. Utena/Anthy. Garnet. Sephiroth/Zack/Cloud. Rey/Finn/Poe and Obi-Wan/Anakin/Padmé. Thassarian/Koltira.Jet/Zuko. Jason Todd/Taylor Barnam, which was a Dreamwidth RP pairing that I will never get over. Morgan/Garcia. I won’t start on Marvel or we’ll be here all week, but I would just like to say that Steve Rogers is in the middle of the biggest and most complex polycule there ever was. Book ships would require a whole other post.

Last song: Morcheeba - Blood Like Lemonade. (Yes, I’ve been watching The Umbrella Academy.)

Last movie: Ant-Man and the Wasp. Lots of Parents Being Good and everyone acknowledging Hank Pym is a horrible person who deserves every awful thing that’s ever happened to him and Janet deserves none of this bullshit whatsoever.

Tagging: YOU. Yes, you. The person reading this. @ me in your response so I don’t miss your answers, because I can’t narrow my choices when it comes to all y’all.

Ship Meme! Tagged by @the-cryptographer​ ~

1) Ultimate Otps:

Which of them have ‘ultimate’ qualities...? GS Isaac/Alex would be kind of an ‘ultimate power’ ship, if they got a plot with twists and turns and character development and reasons to cooperate. I’d expect that more from fic than canon - so many other canons have lots of epic slow burn adventure fics for hero/villain-or-antivillain ships. But so far in GS, for those two, I’ve mostly found (good) crackfic, or non-shippy ‘they fight to the death and Isaac wins and marries Mia’  stuff that doesn’t treat them with even as much nuance as the canon.

Not that I mind mudshipping - my ultimate GS polyship would be something like Isaac/Mia/Felix/Alex(/Veriti/The Ice Queen), with interesting dynamics between every two characters in that set of four (and Mia/Veriti), even with some of the bonds possibly being platonic. Though when I’ve written long plotfic it’s very easily gotten platonic/ambivalent/angsty bc it tends so much towards drama, and conflict may drive plots (hence its abundance in plotbunnies), but I find it hard to headcanon characters getting past hurts and grudges very easily; I want to see them make the effort, but it feels like they’d need a lot of time and personal growth to get there, and I might not even figure how well they do until I’m almost 100K words in. And in some very angsty verses there’s no chance. I want to read other people’s adventure fic too, with fun ideas that manage heel-face turns or antihero plots in a slightly lighter way...

PMMM Madoka/Homura is another ‘ultimate power’ ship, if they can get to a point where Godoka and Homucifer can deal with each other as equals again, both with full knowledge of everything that’s happened and the resolve to truly save themselves, each other, and the rest of the universe. :o

Utena/Anthy is quite an ‘ultimate reality’ ship, when they find their revolution.

2) A ship you’ll always 💜??

The Harvest Moon fan in me is going ‘purple heart? that’s not a very high level of affection??’ ...but taking it as an emoji for ‘love’... without repeating anything above, pokemon Green/Red is always nostalgic (gameverse Ash/Gary, the names get a little confusing as there are localisation differences and I like the old manga and anime too but haven’t watched/read anything recent in those canons).

GS Imilshipping, too, in fic verses where they had a close bond. FE Lucia/Ilyana, I wish they had epilogue content after their support, still mean to write out a plotbunny for them sometime. Soren/Ike, of course, and Tibarn/Reyson.

ToS Lloyd/Colette/Sheena/Zelos, again with strong bonds between all of the pairs in that foursome. They did so much to help each other find hope by striving to save and trust each other, creating a new kind of salvation together.

Skies of Arcadia Fina/Aika/Vyse, Vyse/Ramirez, and Ramirez/Galcian. Never found much fanstuff for it, but it caught the imagination.

3) Current obsessions??

Lots of MadoHomu vibes after getting a oneshot written for them. Confident!Madoka makes both of them happy when they’re not dying; it’s a shame she doesn’t get much screentime as her confident and cheerful self, since so much of her time as a magical girl passes offscreen. Even while she was more unsure during the series, she demonstrated her desire to protect her friends, and Homura commented time and time again on her kindness - she loves her for it, and when she discourages it anyway, it’s because she’s come to believe that it’ll be the death of her. If they were truly safe, they could support each other so well - it could be a world away from the desperation that marked the end of Rebellion, when neither of them are at all okay. :s

Also getting quite into darkfic plotbunnies, and I know ‘darkship’ is a term in some cases for character dynamics fulfilling their worst potential, descending into violence and destruction that at least one character Does Not Want, but in the verses of those plotbunnies I guess they still fit the label of antiships better than ships.

4) A ship you never thought you’d like??

Uh, a lot of the stuff on the gs kink meme caught me by surprise, when rarepairs got suggested and the fills or plotbunnies got interesting - Alex/Ivan, Eoleo/Rief, Alex/Amiti (in a BAD IDEA way). And on lj/tumblr, Mia/Sheba was pleasant surprise too. Not that I ever had any preconceptions about disliking ships, they just hadn’t occurred to me.

In FF7, I don’t think I expected to see compelling Cloud/Seph or Zack/Seph at first, all those years ago, but I quickly found that there are a lot of good AUs and darkfic. Especially when they’re alongside other good ships like Cloud/Zack, Aerith/Zack, Aerith/Cloud, Aerith/Tifa, Tifa/Cloud etc.

5) A ship you used to like but don’t anymore:

Uh idk exactly. I used to read a lot of Buffy fic by ship to find characters whose dynamics were interesting in the show, but iirc I ended up skimming any content that was really ‘shippy’ to get to the plot and jokes and emotional bonding over real stuff, not random physical attraction, and nowadays I don’t think I’d bother skimming so much stuff just bc I hoped it’d be interesting and wanted to keep giving it a chance.

6) A ship that should be canon??

Well some that are very strongly implied but not explicitly stated feel like ‘yep that’s canon’ but could maybe use some more in-universe and author confirmation when not everyone seems to agree - Ike/Soren, Utena/Anthy in some versions of canon, etc.

7) A canon ship you hate???

I like to hate the way darkships go sometimes, but that’s what makes them an interesting story, going ‘noo’ about characters’ bad decisions, though that usually only works if they had better potential that they’re falling short of, not necessarily in a romantic sense... Can’t think of many cases where that happens in canon. Uh I think most explicitly canon relationships are either one option among many routes (and I get tired of support grinding), or I’m a bit indifferent, or if I dislike how it’s done I’d still start playing devil’s advocate and wondering how it could have been done differently if I spend any time considering it.

Oh in FE Awakening I kinda hated how Virion’s flirting in the main plot cutscenes was creepy and painted him as a bad joke, but his supports are much better and some of them are great - how do you explain liking his ships when he has such a bad start (and such bad English voice acting)? I also hated the way the player character’s support options didn’t all show up until endgame, so I missed them the first time and had to replay and wait until then to support grind, and then it all got repetitive grinding the same dlc maps so many times over just for such short supports, and the endgame marriage candidates that were most interesting (bc how the hell could the game make that work, with a head of state or a former enemy??) ended up with really rushed and unconvincing relationship development, and the child recruitment maps were hellishly difficult at that point in the endgame, and all in all it got a bit un-fun and not worth the effort. :/

8) A ship you shipped for years??

Most of the above. Also stuff like Saiyuki Sanzo/Goku, GS Alex/Felix or /Saturos, Jenna/Sheba, Karis/Sveta, Pokemon Misty/Erika, FE Florina/Lyndis, and, uh, probably stuff that I’m forgetting right now.

9) A ship everyone 😍 but you don’t care for?

...Was there anything? Some of the cliche stuff bugs me, but I’d usually think ‘what about writing the dynamic this way and maybe adding poly?’

10) Favorite rare pair???

Mm what's rare? Any gs Alex!ships at this point...

Edit: I forgot to tag anyone, so. If meme time sounds like fun, @sazandorable, @meganekkomeguca, @droory, or anyone who feels like it?

[luciferschoice-art]

M + Q + T for that fandom ask thingie please

M - Your favorite fanart or fanartist?whoah uhm omg I have way to manyfavorite fanartists, but I love all of their own content as well andI even watch artists which draw mostly pairings I don’t like! But theart itself is just amazing. And I could list all of those I’mwatching but It would take too long.

@magemg, @merwild , @rex-clypeus and many japanese artists like Setsu, Yamopp, MGnote , kura-hashi, Neconi_FFXV … I really have way to many! Many are FFXV artists and those I can think of right off the bat. Those I loved for FFVII are not active anymore after all these years sadly ;_;”I bet I forgot too many… As I…follow way to many AMAZING artists asdfghjkl

Q - A ship you’ve abandoned and why?I never abandoned any ship as far as Iknow. I just tend to ‘not hype them’ as much after a time anymore –but still love it. I just throw in „Hannigram“ and „Blackice“.

T -If you mostly have homoships, doyou have any heteroships?I have a few! I’m a fan of Touga x Utena (Shoujo Kakumei Utena), I have a kink forVega x Chun-Li (Street Fighter), Prince Twilight x Honey (CuteyHoney), Luther x Kara (DBH), Zack x Aerith (FFVII), Helios x Chibiusa (Sailor Moon)… these are theones I can think of right now!

[brave-symphonia]

Man, I don’t have much to say here other than I love this.

They get to dance together, and be happy just enjoying themselves together.

And I love that they just have a new song play over their dance as you just get to see them dance with each other to the song.

And I can’t help but see the fact that due to the dance they do, they have that moment where their hands are extended holding onto each other, as if to mirror them reaching for each other’s hands.

[brave-symphonia]

I’m taking this to mean that she pretended to be drugged, only to reveal that she wasn’t, unnerving him, allowing her to kill him.

And honestly, I don’t really blame her for killing the man who manipulated her for years.

[brave-symphonia]

That last part, “as long as you stay in this world”, it feels telling.

If she chooses to stay in her coffin, she can have anything she wants. Anthy is giving her the choice here, on whether or not she wants to stay here.

She’s letting her save herself. She tried to help her get to a point where she’d be willing to save herself, just like Utena did for her, and now she’s giving her a choice.

[brave-symphonia]

I need something clarified about Utena before I start a rewatch.

It's not necessarily guaranteed to happen yet, but I'm considering.

So, were all of Akio's plans only over the last 10 years or so? Because he met Utena when he was still Dios, before he became End of the World, and she's only 14.

Given that there were mentions of time not really moving at Ohtori Academy, at least I think there was, I had thought he'd been finding and discarding princes for decades. Especially with how he didn't seem too concerned about Utena not making it through the door.

And that could have fit if Dios was someone else, but if it was just Akio's past self, then it doesn't.

Unless Dios somehow does exist separately from Akio on some level, kind of like how he'd appear to Utena at times.

Also, it has been quite a few months since I finished the show, so there is that.

[brave-symphonia]

Man, that gets to me.

Utena’s willing to fight for Anthy, for them to live a life where they can just laugh together over tea ten years from now.

[brave-symphonia]

I feel like this is the most vocal Anthy has been during a duel.

And she tells Utena to kill the Rose Bride, isn’t Anthy the Rose Bride?

And Utena’s reaction to seeing it’s Wakaba, the look on her face, how she doesn’t even draw her sword to fight. This fight truly feels different, she can’t fight her friend.

And Wakaba actually runs Utena through with the sword, man that hurts.

[brave-symphonia]

This honestly feels beautiful.

[brave-symphonia]

I’M FINE!!! I’M NOT CRYING!!!

I. AM. NOT. CRYING.

[brave-symphonia]

I feel like there’s a lot to be said about that line.
