sniffs. what changed 😢

#doing a dcshg v1/v2 comparison #v2 is def stronger in almost every way #i’ll give ​v1 some credit it does have some good designs #karen and hal here for example #karen’s side braids are striped like a bumblebee?? i mean cmon that’s just character design genius #and you KNOW i gotta appreciate a pilot jacket hal (not pictured) #but the storylines and pacing and animation and voice acting are a lot better in v2 #the girls are kinda uninspired in v1 but the boys feel more in-character (less boys vs girls the way v2 is) #v2’s girls have a lot of variety and distinct roles but the boys as we know are. well they’re a hit or miss #ivy is sooo much better in v2 she might be its best character besides barry #carol is unfortunately not great in both versions and ik that’s the comics’ fault #but it still feels dismissive. like you can make a hopeless romantic character without misogyny #anyway personal biases (and also weird moral lessons) aside i’ve been enjoying both! #obviously the show is called dc superhero GIRLS so i have to give my vote to v2 #but also bc barry is kinda just perfect in v2 like the update was clearly made by someone that loved him specifically #but also hates hal specifically it’s weird #like how are you gonna be a flash fan and not know that flashes have a history of friendship with green lanterns #v1 makes him a slapstick character too but it’s actually funny. so there IS a difference #but i’m starting to like v2 hal anyway :( i can’t fault him for the show’s misgivings :( #danbles #dcshg #karen beecher #hal jordan #green lantern #dc #i’ve now seen 1 season of v1 and a random mish mash of episodes of v2. sighh i’ll go back and watch them in order to compare 😔 #no one is asking for this i just love comparing and contrasting things #oh and btw v1 cheetah is exactly like toralei monster high. i wonder if they knew what they were doing #btw x2 barry and hal share the same VA in v1. just putting that out there
