Me half reading this late at night when the melatonin hits: I can't sleep because I have bad Yo Gabba Gabba receptors or something. Sounds right.

It's cool how this is a 60k note post when almost every word of it is untrue

Oh my god

Sparking Zero has an encyclopedia mode where you can see all the various characters and bios.

But.

The bios.

The bios are delivered in the form of Bulma, Chi-Chi, and Videl gossiping about the characters. XD

These are the best fighting game bios ever.

Or as I like the call it, the after school homework and videos games arc.

How do you explain to people that one of your current favourite ongoing manga is a shounen about fighting off interdimensional invaders and it's fully just committed itself to a tactical computer game e-sports arc for the last 3 years? And that it's still just as good?!?!

I'm at San Diego Comic Con!

Meant to post something yesterday but it was crazy enough as is!

I have a handful of 2015 Kamehamehamlet postcards so if you bump into me I'd love to give you one!

I think we all judge stories (ie. narrative media) for different reasons, but the number one metric for me liking a story is how it handles theme.

(Tangent #1: I break theme down in two ways: A moral/message/lesson/question of the story / How that MMLQ is explored in the story)

I love a movie that can manage to explore the theme in almost every scene (See Across the Spider-Verse/Zootopia) and I think this thread is a great set-up to discuss how you could explore theme in a cosmic-horror story.

If you open with this scene, ideally from the human's POV, and then later have a giant cosmic elder squid god descend to earth your ripe for a rich theme.

If we flip the opening and it's a human being mean to a lil octopus, and the elder god destroys their hometown, there's a clear through line of: humans are monsters actually.

If we keep the kind intentions of the video and the human thinks they are helping the octopus but doesn't like that the elder god destroyed their hometown, then we get to leave the audience with some questions to debate. Suddenly all the side scenes are ready to be mined for more clues.

What if the human is really aware that the cup is human caused pollution. Does the author want us to consider that maybe a city, started by cultists 300 years ago, which has ruined the once great forest of a coast land is a mistake the elder god feels responsible for? And if so, what does that say about how we should approach our collective responsibilities?

What if the last scene is the elder god, using the tiniest tendril to place a plastic cup on the head of the human?

Or better yet, the tiny octopus.

Diver convince octopus to trade his plastic cup for a seashell
