y'know i always say i tend to like villains (or at least antagonists??) more than the protagonist, but what i don't know is like. Why.

did i have one specific childhood villain that just formed my taste in characters for the rest of time??? if so wtf was it? i need to unravel my own lore it's driving me up the wall.

#ney's idle chatter (random textposts) #i know my fellow antagonist-fans are out there i see you guys #but where did it COME FROM #hhh... my guess is maybe cartoons?? but none come to mind right away #god. what did i watch as a kid #teen titans maybe?? or dragonball z?? #i'm sure there's more in there #gotta love characters that seem way scarier than the narrative should allow #a load of the danny phantom ones probably #... okay maybe this is less of a mystery than i thought #it would be easier if i just went with the oldest one but i didn't watch all these in order #... unrelated kind of but man i gotta rewatch these and see if they're as good as i remember #breaking news: cap'n likes nostalgia. everyone gasp in unison. #lmao #i do have some main characters i like now. but for a long time it was Bad Guys

and my dragon ball miscellany archival quest continues.....

have you heard of the Beckett Dragonball Z Collector Magazines? they're a series of unofficial DBZ magazines from the early 2000s. i certainly hadn't ever heard of them until recently. however apparently No One has bothered to archive them which i simply could NOT stand for. so i bought a lot of 15 and started scanning them myself :P here's the first five, i hope to get the other ten i have scanned soon!

ARCHIVE.ORG LINKS: 13, 14, 16, 17, 18

links include a lower quality pdf for ease of reading and a folder full of full res tiff files. now, my scanner's not great so these are pretty moire'd; and my copies are in less than perfect condition so these scans may not be the best, sorry ^^; also all of them are missing their posters sadly

as with the CD Card post, i also offer a call to action: if you can provide scans of issues i don't have (or even just better scans of the issues i do!), then i highly encourage you share them!!

#dragon ball #dragon ball z #dbz #magazine #old magazine #beckett dragonball z collector #internet archive #archive.org #mine #merchposting #trunks's time machine #IM THINKING once i get the other ten i have scanned and uploaded i might post scans from it on my blog now and again maybe :P #these are a lot easier to acquire than the cd picture cards so im def hoping i'll be able to buy more to scan after this #but any help helps lmao #aaaand i think maybe my next plan when the magazines are done (whenever that is....) is scan the scholastic books? #bc while theres a couple on archive.org theres like 20 that Arent #after that i dont know whats next but thats a while from now LOL

[avastyetwats]

Why am I feeling the strong urge to write as Inu.yasha again?? He’s one of my favorite characters and I love writing as him and the muse has been hitting hard lately. Imagining him, somehow, in the OFMD universe has me laughing. I’d obviously go with his human form and make him fit somehow, but that would be weird and I doubt anyone would write with him given he’s from an anime LMAO. I’m so excited for the anime con this weekend though. I hope there will be a lot of Inuyasha Merch.

#tired of the same anime Merch everywhere #naruto demon slayer dragonball z chainsaw man all of those #give me some other anime stuff lmao #resting at the inn (ooc)

[big-boah]

Let's take a moment to think about how in DBZ, the first time Goku and Vegeta fused via the earrings, they decided to go through with it EVEN THOUGH they thought it would be permanent. If that's not love/dedication idk what is

He literally says you'll die if you don't combine with me look how worked up he is about it I can't with them 😩

[sharkkfacee]

🐝 quick very very undetailed thing about my wasp man... Sphecius is a capsule corp android, basically just meaning he was created by Bulma.

Though Sphecius exists in a timeline where Perfect Cell pretty much wins against the rest of the Z fighters. Bulma wasn't going to just give up so she created Sphecius with the sole purpose of killing the cicada man. Fight went on for a decent amount of time (insert dragonball fight scene here) but Sph won in the end.

So rn he's kinda just a bit lost since his purpose was fulfilled. He's super sweet and friendly and may or may not have some sort of messed up obsession with the need to do his job/cicada man himself ...but we won't get into that.

That's pretty much it LMAO

[dipplinduo]

How would you rank the gens?

Ope I feel like I'm gonna upset some people LOL so disclaimer remember these are just my takes.

But this is how I personally see them (counting remakes as being part of the gen they remaking):

Gen 9 - Paldea Region

I've been thinking about this since the games came out, so I'd like to say recency bias isn't as much of a factor here. Bugs aside, I genuinely, genuinely love the storytelling, characterizations, and open world approach. FRIENDS THAT FEEL LIKE ACTUAL FRIENDS?? HAVING THE LEGENDARY WITH YOU THE WHOLE TIME, AND IT TOO HAS A PERSONALITY & BACKSTORY??? THREE SEPERATE STORYLINES THAT CONNECT TO A CANONICALLY DEAD PROFESSOR AND AN "EVIL AI" FINAL BOSS??? Like omg. I was amazed. I honestly usually dislike the "gimmicks" each generation brings, but terastilization caught my interest and I have a strong feeling nothing will personally top it as a gimmick for me. The DLCs really sent it all home for me for the #1 spot, like oh my god LOL. Past DLCs always just felt like something extra, but I literally cannot see this game as being complete without Kieran, Carmine & the rest of Kitakami/Blueberry peeps & their storylines. My interest in the games only grew because of all of it - and that's a massive compliment given the fact of how hard it is to accomplish such a level of monumental significance with only a few hours of gameplay. I've yet to replay the game with earlier access to The Teal Mask, but I feel like this would make it even more immersive. Just pure chef kisses here.

Gen 2 - Johto Region

A very close second. Heartgold/Soulsilver is the most elite remake in existence and idc if it's old school, I'll die on this hill. Johto is just so full of life - the continuation story is amazing, the immersion into culture and legendary stuff??? Mwah. Silver is an excellent rival, RED being a thing (the ultimate level of iconicism), and the double region will always hit. The soundtracks HIT and my god hearing them remastered iS INCREDIBLE. I even get obsessed with the pokeathlon dome and I'm usually not someone who gets into that kind of stuff. But THEY MADE IT FUN. And I love all the cute activities you can do with your team that can follow you around. So glad they brought this feature back. :')

Gen 5 - Unova Region

Oooooh I loved the reset of Gen 5. It's based on where I'm from and there were so many refreshing aspects of Black & White. From the new pokemon, to the NYC culture, to N & the whole beautiful storytelling there, and a sequel that somehow made everything even MORE polished. I literally remember referring to this region as the "Isshu Region" before the English names dropped becuase of the hype LOL. 10/10, cannot wait for these remakes. Gamefreak don't mess this up.

Gen 4 - Sinnoh Region

Oh, Gen 4. You hit good. The lowkey dreary vibes of Sinnoh is very nostalgic to me, and Piplup is one of my best buddies. Cynthia being the very first female Champion, and being as fearsome as she is, was such a big deal to me. Definetely Barbie'd her a bit in my mind because I look a like her and loved how much of an academic she was (but I def do not have her length in hair, lmao). Soundtracks are fire, of course. The way legendaries were integrated in the story without going too Dragonball Z was IMMACULATE, and the lake trio will always be my fave lil buddies. The only con I'd give this gen is that I disliked the HM reliance & D/P are practically unplayable to me since Platinum exists. I had low bars for the remake once I heard it wasn't Platinum, and ugh, they really dropped the ball. HOWEVER: while it isn't main line, I fucking love Legends: Arceus and would rather have that over an excellent remake, tbh.

Gen 1 - Kanto Region

This is another nostalgia one for me because of the fact that I quite literally was introduced to pokemon since before I can recall most memories (this is what happens when you have an older sibling with a gameboy, lol). It's probably tied with Gen 4, tbh. Firered wasn't my first game, but it hit really good because I "played" so much of R/B/Y. I know Gen 1 has its faults, and it's often seen as being pretty bare bones in comparison to other generations. And while I completely agree, god damn, what a good foundation for a franchise. Every town had a personality to it and is very memorable to me. The soundtracks are FIRE. Smaller pokedex, but damn does team building hit (and the starters are elite). Blue was also consistently my favorite rival until Kieran, lol. #oldrivalshipping/conflictingshipping was the original OTP xD

Gen 7 - Alola Region

So there's a lot of things I liked about Gen 7. It took a really big risk by breaking the formula, and it really immersed me into the Hawaiian culture & seeing your pokemon more as friends. I loved looking at pokemon in a different way and some of the pokemon introduced in this region are among my favorites (e.g. Ribombee, Bewear, Shiinotic, Mimikyu, Rockaruff, to name a few; starters also HIT). NEBBY AND LILLIE ARE ELITE. The professor is so lit, and Team Skull is the funniest team organization alive. AND YES, GET RID OF THE HMS. I honestly think a remake would make this gen jump up a bit more for me - the 3DS could barely handle this game, and it was showing. The facial expressions also need some work LOL, and I honestly dread the tutorial of the game. I like the ultrabeasts conceptually, but the execution of their involvement in the game is very DragonBall Z-ified. Ultra Necrozma lowkey would've been an amazing time for a "light" type even if it didn't make much sense, but hey, it was an awesome nuzlocke-killing moment anyway. xD

Gen 8 - Galar Region

I actually have a lot of play time for this gen. I was very obsessed with it when it came out, and could probably get glued to it all the same nowadays. But in hindsight, I realize a lot of my attachment to it was because of the semi-open worldness & ability to create a lot of different kinds of teams with a lot of new and old pokemon I like (I also liked having access to things earlier, like Ice Types before the end of the game lmfao). I still have a few things I really enjoy outside of it, though, like Hop's storyline & the setup of the gyms being in this stadium, sports-esque setting. But the plot? Eh. I have a lot of constructive criticism on how some shortcuts were made, and especially with the whole darkest day stuff lol. The only thing I liked about that fight was the dogs coming in and being cool; I wasn't impressed by or interest in Eternatus at all. The Leon fight afterward was fun, though! But oof, those weird men with the sword and shield hair afterwards were also just...no. :D DLCs also didn't quite hit that hard - it was more about having more pokemon than anything for me. So overall, it's fun to play, but I'd definitely change up the plot to make it better.

Gen 3 - Hoenn Region

This is where I think some people might wanna fight me, and to that I say you're probably valid. I don't know what it is with the Hoenn region because I actually don't have too many critiques about it (e.g., let's have less water routes); I just have never been able to get into it quite the same as I can others. I should honestly give it another shot, but I think I'd wanna do Emerald over Omega Ruby/Sapphire given the route they took everything with the remake lol. That's about all I have to say on this one since I never really connected with it as much!

Gen 6 - Kalos Region

This one feels like an especially hot take to have atm given where the pokemon community is in general LOL. Critical opinions ahead......Listen...no offense, but Gen 6 just ain't it for me at all. xD It's probably the one gen I actively dislike. The games felt way too easy with too much hand-holding/handouts, Team Flare & Diantha were a joke (and I'm not even a competitive player), and the whole group of friends felt more like an annoyance to me more than anything. They just weren't flushed out right. Neither was the plot. Like what was that plot. Outside of that, a lot of things just felt like "Look! Pokemon is in 3D now!!" over and over again because of how rushed the game was. So other than introducing fairy types & having pretty protagonists with some new clothing options, this gen is pretty forgettable to me. And that's a shame, because I like pokemon! I was one of those people who were curious on if we were gonna connect to Kalos for Gen 9, but I'd geniunely pick the DLCs we got any day of the week. I don't think Legends ZA will change much of my opinion on the mainline game, but given how much I loved Legends Arceus, I'm hoping it can be used to retcon & generate more interest/connection to the Kalos region in general.

Again, these are all just my personal opinions. I hope you all can enjoy pokemon in any way that feels good for you :) <3
