i can tolerate a lot of things from writers and showrunners but outright condescension and disdain for their fans is not one of them

#ted lasso #ted lasso critical #tedbecca #i didn’t like it from rian johnson and i sure as shit don’t like it from the ted lasso showrunners #i didn’t think tedbecca was going to be canon (and honestly didn’t care one way or the other) #(as in my enjoyment of the show was not hinging on tedbecca being canon. i was there for sam dani and nate first and foremost.) #but that 3.12 opening felt very meanspirited for a show that’s all about being curious and not judgmental #like if they felt so strongly about platonic tedbecca and KNEW they would never get together #what was the deal with playing coy when they were asked about that for the last two years #everyone involved could have just shut it down a la tina fey right away and we wouldn’t have this problem #i just don’t like ppl (fans and creators alike) laughing at the tedbeccas for picking up the pieces that the showrunners were putting down! #hunt and sudeikis and everyone in that room basically dangled a carrot for the last two years #and now they’re denying the carrot even existed #which does not sit right with me #also (hot take) but if the finale opened by mocking tedtrent fans and not tedbeccas y’all would (rightfully) be up in arms #the writers are adults and did not need to waste parts of the literal series finale punching down at a section of fans #whose worst crime was being annoying

Ok, but can we talk about Myne's hair color!

Because the LN describes her hair as being “Midnight Blue”, but to my understanding midnight blue is this color.

Which is not the color she has in the Anime, Manga, or LN colored art pages

Like we can all agree that none of these are midnight blue. So that leads to the question, what color is myne's hair?

My first thought was that her hair is probably cobalt blue.

But it’s too bright and lacks that dusty-ness so then I found these

I think these four more or less encapsulates Myne’s hair color more or less, but what do you guys think? How do you see Myne’s hair color?

#like I wish her hair was midnight blue #This is not a knock on any of the artist or animators #her hair is very consistent #honestly across all boards #it’s basically the same color #it’s just not midnight blue to me #which is me overthinking I know #but hear me out! #i think we should figure it out for science #I personally like Dark Cerulean #but the other three are taken directly from other official arts like the anime #or the manga and LN #so AoB fam What color are we liking #we can also say fuck cannon and just actually make it midnight blue #idk I just wanna hear y’all’s thoughts #ascendance of a bookworm #honzuki no gekokujou #Myne aob #rozemyne #rozemyne aob #funnily enough Ferdinand’s hair IS Sky Blue #technically LIGHT sky blue #what I mean is his hair reads Sky blue in art more than Myne’s reads midnight blue #you’re probably asking why is this important? #and the answer is FANFIC OC BABIES #what are the kids gonna look like????? #so we need to settle on myne’s hair color #thank you for your time

Listen y’all I just woke up and had the most cracked yet self explanatory headcanon

Goto Ryuji and Lim Tae-Gyu are relatives, and even so are either brothers or cousins separated at early childhood.

That’s literally coming from me mistaking them first time I read SL BUT BEAR WITH ME OKAY I HAVE GOLDFISH MEMORY SPAWN

ANYWAY

Consider them both being born in Japan, and after boys were born their parents broke their marriage and while Ryuji stayed with his father in Japan, mother took Fuuka (aka future Tae-Gyu) with her to South Korea for her new future husband. Since she married into new family, she changed her name as well as Fuuka’s hence Lim Tae-Gyu appeared.

Years roll by and it’s first proper meeting with Japanese S ranks, Tae-Gyu knows what they all are saying without translator because for some reason his mother knew Japanese perfectly for some reason and was hell bent on him also knowing it as second language also for some reason, but he never bothered to inform anyone.

And then Goto Ryuji himself enters the scene, and oh suddenly it becomes too quiet as everyone just stare at two men with uncanny levels of resemblance.

Tae-Gyu is just confused why everyone is suddenly so quiet and staring, and he’s especially unnerved by Ryuji’s really intense stare that has usual levels of threat in it but also searching, almost painfully hopeful.

Apparently Ryuji knows he had a brother because he remembers him vaguely and his father always told about him. Tae-Gyu has no proper memories of his early childhood and his mother never really spoke about her previous marriage either, only small specks of Japanese here and there which confused Tae-Gyu.

All Ryuji says after a really long uncomfortable silence is

‘Fuuka’

and Tae-Gyu instantly tenses, starting to glare at Ryuji in return because only his mother ever called him this name at home and it was so precious and personal it IS offending to hear it from a complete stranger even if it’s said with equal undertones of shared understanding and intimacy.

‘Fuuka, did mother allow you to keep Kiryu?’

And oh, that one was a low blow for Tae-Guy because Kiryu - a really old, clearly clumsily child-made plush dragon toy was one of the few things he had from his early childhood and was really attached to, for some reason. He deduced it was probably a gift from someone really important to him back then, because no matter what mother always made sure it’s taken care of and he always had a childish sentiment for it.

‘… How— How do you know about this—‘

And oh, he didn’t even notice slipping to perfect, not accented Japanese. Honestly? He doesn’t care at the moment, because fearsome Goto Ryuji knowing your other name and about your childhood plushie is disturbing.

Lim Tae-Gyu né Goto Fuuka, is confused and disturbed and angry but also terrified and somewhat hopeful. He doesn’t know why man before him knows such important, personal details no one knows, and it scares him.

Goto Ryuji is conflicted, both happy and disturbed. Here, before him, stands his long lost brother whom his mother took away to different county and wasn’t heard of ever since. There’s such a giant void between them, and Ryuji doesn’t know how to cross it and mend relationship with his brother without appearing like a creep with absolutely unbelievable story.

Everyone on side silently watch two stone faced men, who look almost like a mirror reflection, have a silent inner mental breakdown.

#solo leveling #goto ryuji #lim tae gyu #listen I woke up with galaxy brain enlightenment #I MEAN COME ON THE VIBES OF THESE TWO MATCH #also holy shit if you consider this route they both represent one of noble arts #aka swordsmanship and archery #kendo and kyuudo siblings let’s go #also I named taegyu ‘fuuka’ which is basically a japanese reading for chinese ‘phoenix’ to match Ryuji’s dragon theme #but it’s also cute feminine name #if anything y’all can call him suzaku as alternative #taegyu speaks fluent natural japanese without accent #ryuji failing his attempts at sibling bonding lmao #pathetic big brother moment ngl #Ryuji telling Taegyu they’re brothers and all he gets is lost ‘…oh’ #everyone on background internally be like ‘THE FUCK YOU MEAN ‘OH’???’ #siblings being absolute manfailures so true

What's your response to people saying Sasuke viewing Team 7 as his family is “unrealistic” because they only knew each other for a few months?

Ouuu I’m sorry this is such a late response, I was drafting it out and I totally forgot to finish it!

Figuring out the timeline of Naruto is HELL, but from what I gather, Sasuke was a part of Team 7 for about a year. For plot purposes, we don’t really see how Team 7 bonds, but we know they basically meet up / train / go on missions every day. During the Wave arc, Kakashi gives the whole “abandoning your teammates makes you worse than scum” speech to a group of impressionable 12 year olds. Not only that, he’s been drilling the idea of teamwork since the very first meeting. On top of all that, it’s established at the academy that it’s essential for teams to gel if they want to survive on the field (the team becomes your second family, wink wink.)

Considering all of that, no I don’t think it’s unrealistic to believe that Sasuke begins to cherish Team 7 (something that is CANONICALLY proven, and I’ll prove it after this.) His time with his team provides structure, routine, and an escape from his relentless thoughts abt revenge (and if there’s one thing I know, kids need routine and structure, even if regrettably, that comes from being a fucking child soldier.) Team 7 becomes Sasuke’s support system. I’m not pulling this out of my ass btw - after seeing Itachi again, Sasuke himself acknowledges that because he spent so much time being with his team, he forgot abt his revenge (for clarification cos I’m too lazy to find the manga page, this is when Kisame and Itachi come after Naruto while he’s training w Jiraiya.)

During the invasion arc / Naruto’s fight against Gaara, Sasuke calls Naruto and Sakura his “precious comrades.” (Even without the words, if you read the manga, it’s clear from Sasuke’s body language that he cares about/is very protective over his team.) When Kakashi is trying to convince Sasuke to forget about his revenge, Naruto and Sakura are the people he thinks about.

Somewhere between the formation of Team 7 and Sasuke’s defection, Naruto and Sakura have become important people to Sasuke, so much so that the thought of leaving them behind almost convinces him to stay (but of course, in the end, his hatred for Itachi and need for revenge wins over.)

I’ve seen the criticisms and I’ll admit that the execution of Team 7 as a family is not as strong as it could’ve been. But I do think that if you read the manga, you can see Kishimoto’s efforts. And canonically, Sasuke cares deeply about Naruto and Sakura, and anyone who tries to argue against that is wrong 🤷🏻‍♀️

#i always see people say shit like omg nrt and skra don’t rly care abt ssk cos they never actually supported him #like let’s get something straight #nrt and skra supported ssk killing itachi even if they didn’t understand it #what they didn’t support was ssk going off w orochimaru’s psycho ass and being consumed by his hatred #i’m gonna touch on skra and ssk’s relationship specifically bc i feel like nrt & ssk’s is strong on its own #but as much as the fandom shits on skra’s crush on ssk there’s something v innocent/protective abt skra’s love for him #lemme explain: after ssk gets the curse mark skra threatens to tell kakashi abt it. ssk lashes out at her #skra continues to express her concern abt ssk and the way his hatred/desire for revenge is consuming him #when she confronts him before he leaves the village she tells him that getting revenge won’t lead to happiness #this is basically the same discussion kakashi had with sasuke earlier that day #all skra rly wants for ssk is for him to be happy #is that naive? yes probably. but i don’t think her crush on him was as superficial as people make it out to be #let me remind y’all that skra was one of the first people that saw firsthand what the curse mark did to ssk #all she wanted was for him not to fall deeper into that darkness #team 7 has always been compassionate to ssk. they just didn’t want to see him destroyed by his hatred. #which is essentially what almost happens to him in shippuden #I can keep going but for the sake of readability i won’t #team 7 #pro team 7 #dai nana han #ask #thanks for the ask!

IS 5SOS GOING ON HIATUS?!?!

so I don’t know if u know this or not but Michael Clifford is actually having a whole ass human baby and babies tend to need a wee bit of attention and care.

5sos have also been touring for two years now and they also always take breaks for a couple years when writing their new albums (see their last three albums) so, sure, call it a hiatus if u want ig. But the truth of the matter is that it’s just the same formula the band has always followed. And idk why people are suddenly panicking and acting like it’s a new development

#this ask bothered me ahdjjsjs #why r u yelling #also where have u been #this has been all anyone’s talked abt for months which is also fucking annoying #like the band is genuinely just doing what they’ve always done #and also Michael is having a child #he might wanna spend some time with it #yeah don’t talk to me abt a 5sos hiatus bc y’all just don’t seem to understand what it actually is ahdjjss #like they’re just. doing what they have done before #so idk why people are being bitch babies about it #sorry not so much directed at you anon as the absolute morons on twitter and TikTok #the bands fine. they’ve literally said they’re working on a new album and they obviously need breaks between tours #so idk why people are acting like it’s the end of the Fucking world #get over yourself is basically what I’m saying #pigeon #anon

Hate this vid I just saw

#tim calling Kon stupid for not controlling his strength #according to #mutuals don’t laugh #YOUNG JUSTICE 1998-2003 #Licks finger flips page #🤓 #KOOOON calls himself so stupid ALL the time not just for things like losing control (which. not as often as y’all think it is) but for #basic shit like not having a plan every second of the day #just to turn around and be so fucking smart #tim isn’t ‘the smart one’ #I do think he’s extremely intelligent especially with planning like duh #but trying to call everyone stupid compared to him #like if that’s the case how stupid do y’all think tim is #with the way y’all talk about his friends and family (like first of all he’d HATE you for calling Kon stupid booooo) #he must be as dumb as a bag of bricks #and I’m not saying Tim’s never thought Kon was an idiot before #but like. do YALL know how they work? #like Y’know what whatever that’s enough tim positivity for the year

People are saying royai isn’t canon now…Jesus Christ

love going through the rnm tags and being teleported back in time (when I wasn’t in fandom spaces) and learning about some straight up wacky discourse, seeing fun exerts of interviews, cute photos of Jeanine and Amber and a billion old edits from a deactivated blog

#it’s like the gift the keeps giving #especially cause said wacky discourse I didn’t have to block people about #and new Jeanine/Liz content is really all I need in my life- especially since it’s dried up #not to be like there’s not enough Liz/Echo posting anymore… #but it was shockingly low when the fandom was active in s3-4 #and is it’s basically dried up and I make like 50% of her content :/ #which I get- I do #but it also means I get to claim to be her number one Dan and y’all can’t stop me #I love her mostest #I love her so much I wanna rip out my heart and crush it into dust (ouat style- or tvd style) #ya da ya da

damn i should probably start adding a synopsis to my fics but i do Not know how to synop (word i just made up but methinks it works)

#summaries beat my ass soooooooo bad like i’m looking at my masterlist rn and girl… BORING! 😪 #need some OOMPH… i’m not really intrigued by my own summaries at all 😭 which in turn then is like how can i expect others to be #it’s the small things y’all… why is condensing a story down without spoiling/being too vague/basic/being monotonous so hard 😭 #anywhomst. curator!geto x fashion designer!reader is my guinea pig for a lot of things hopefully it all turns out well 😭 #aka: TRYING to implement a hooking synopsis + using my writing tips + adding more characters + maybe changing the layout of my a/n 🤔 #but so far! got the intro down and tried to make it really descriptive 😭 hopefully it ain’t too clunky! we’ll see <3 #personal

So. One Piece. It’s time to admit that my only prior consumption of it was…the 4kids version. 😅 Which I remember enjoying quite a bit as a kid, and I only really stopped watching bc it went off the air in the US, and when it came back, I was just finishing college and moving across the country. So like. Priorities. 😅

Anyways, so idk if it’s bc of the absolute botch-job of the 4Kids version, or simply that it’s been nearly 20 years, but yooooo I Do Not Remember Zoro being this hilariously aloof. 😂 I don’t really remember him having much a personality at all tbh. But I hope this live action version is at least semi-accurate bc his drunken deadpan is killing me. 😂

#I know the 4kids dubbed really fucked it up. I know that. and I know opla if nothing else more faithful just for keeping #all the violence blood and swearing #and I may not know ‘real’ one piece but I know I like one piece #but also I will die on the hill that sanji’s 4kids lollipop was sick as hell and has been a vibe since 2004 #a cigarette is so normal. so boring. getting your ass kicked by a bitch sucking on a lollipop? peak aesthetic. #apple talks #to the tune of spam #also. I’m not saying that dub was good. but it was 2004. my house still had dial-up internet and even niche video stores didn’t have much #of an anime section and if the series was licensed by a distributor like 4kids it was basically impossible to get ahold of an uncensored sub #we had to take what we could get. and sometimes what we got was a weirdly sanitized and chopped to pieces version of a show #but no matter how badly they fucked it up there was still a kernel of the og story in there #it’s like watching an abridged series (which I may remind y’all that’s literally how abridged series got their start. by making fun of 4kids

every single day of my life I am reminded of the fact that tumblr is the one place where the obvious and very beautiful and right romance from a popular story is the one that will make people agree as a collective that shipping it makes you insane/evil/dumb etc. truly, wild stuff.

#this is about reylo and stancy lol #like y’all are insane #INSANE #and the thing that really gets me is that you all agree with each other and so you treat your insanity as reasonable #WHEN IT IS LAUGHABLE AND I N S A N E #you don’t know how to read/comprehend a story on its most basic level #and you hate true love #and like GO OFF I GUESS #(this is about my for you page which is just ant/ stancy posts #which is insane and cursed #anyway like I literally don’t care #on a personal level #because I will block you all and stay away from you #like. reylo and my eternal vindication cured me of actually caring what you little gremlins say #but as a TEACHER. as a LOVER OF TRUTH AND ROMANCE #y’all are insane and if you care about anything good you will check yourself at the door #(this is not @ anyone I know this is @ people who make anti posts that get thousands of notes) #deranged behavior! #anyway
