#magicians hate

[djeterg19]

Sometimes my Magicians rage is brought back by stupidity I see on Twitter...look do not watch the Magicians unless you would enjoy seeing a depressed bisexual basically commit suicide by showrunners that think that was a HEROIC ending and also never get to see or say goodbye to his male lover who he spent an entire season trying to get back from being possessed

#the magicians #magicians hate #god i loved that show so much for three and a half seasons #peaches and plums motherfucker

Sorry but Kabru is so fascinating to me as a character, in a pure mechanical sense, because of what Ryoko Kui does with him. Everything about him is a red herring. He's deliberately introduced as some kind of rival for Laios, a party leader who is hopeless against monsters but absolutely brilliant with people both in and out of combat, and who has good reason to oppose him.

By the end of chapter 31, you might even think Kabru's going to end up as some sort of anti-villain, an antagonist with the best of intentions who nevertheless tries to foil our hero's plans. He wants to defeat the Mad Mage himself, he suspects Laios of being too irresponsible to be trusted with control of the dungeon, and his crew even thinks that Laios's party stole from them (and they're kind of right!). All signs point towards an inevitable showdown.

And then ... none of that happens.

Confrontation over the stolen treasure? Kabru is literally too smart to fall for the classic miscommunication trope and correctly decides it's not worth making a big deal of.

Kabru's deadly PVP skills? Aside from trying to take down Falin, he never fights another human again.

Wanting to be the one who defeats the dungeon? Turns out he was only doing that because he didn't think any other adventurer would have people's best interests at heart, and he's more than willing to play a support role in the whole affair.

Thinking Laios is up to no good? He really did just want to get to know the guy more. He has his misgivings, but ultimately ends up trusting Laios with his life.

Is Kabru going to get some sort of comeuppance for hating monsters and not appreciating their ecosystem? Well no, he has good reasons for hating monsters. He ends up wanting to learn about them through Laios's eyes, but he's never forced into any "Wow, guess I was wrong about them!" revelation.

Hell, even his implied ladykiller ways, which might lead you to think he'll end up being the stock "chivalrous lech" type of character, don't really manifest. He has a lot of opportunities to act flirtatiously around women, but doesn't. He's just a guy whose natural charisma makes him into human catnip.

And that's all hysterical to me, to pull it off. It's a fascinating way to tell a story. To introduce a character explicitly as a rival, potentially even a villain, and instead make them a deuteragonist. It's like a magician making a coin disappear, then slowing down their trick to show you the misdirection. "Did you see what I did there?" they ask with a wink. "The coin was in my other hand the entire time."

#Dungeon Meshi #Kabru #Dungeon Meshi spoilers #I will say that for the people who come out of the manga still thinking that Kabru hates Laios or that he's a bad guy in any way: #you were so busy staring at the hand where the coin disappeared that you ignored the magician explaining the trick #and yes I do think that Kabru and Marcille are the deuteragonists to Laios's protagonist #we see more of Kabru's interiority than anyone else. if you don't think he's a main character? idk. see me after class. #musings with Dea

Not to be like this but if I had a fan favorite character I wouldn't kill them in the final season for "shock value"??? (Read: because I hate my fans)

I personally think that Kikyo would absolutely be thrilled that Illumi found himself a man he wants to marry as strong, handsome and fit to be Zoldyck as Hisoka.

Hisoka is strong enough to be considered an equal to a zoldyck, which means strength is no problem for him. And I don't know about you but the way he assassinated that terradin man that was threatening to reveal illumis identity at the end of the election arc? CHEFS. KISS. THATS A WHOLE ZOLDYCK WIFE RIGHT THERE. And Hisoka is a certain type of fucked up enough to be a Zoldyck, even if he is... mmm.. self aware. Even if he himself thinks zoldycks are a special kind of fucked up. He'd fit.

I always see people make silva and kikyo disagree with illumi marrying hisoka but i soooo heavily disagree. Like what is there NOT to be proud of in Illumi's marriage choice. There is not a single other character IN THE ENTIRE ANIME fit to be Zoldyck than Hisoka Morow and I will fight people on that.

Something a lot of people also don't realize is that the Zoldycks are not a family that discriminates in the slightest (this is a whole discussion on its own but examples are how Kikyo is from meteor city, the butlers are taken from anywhere as long as they have the skill to work and one of the people who attacked kukuroo mountain to hunt the zoldycks now works for them instead. The zoldycks didnt hesitate to hire that mf they fr dont gaf lmfao)

there are soooooooo many misconceptions about the zoldycks in general and i think thats what aids the whole "the zoldycks would HATE hisoka" thing but like. nah. they wouldnt.

I also think about how Kikyo found Silva at such a young age. I bet she was constantly nagging Illumi and asking when he'd get a partner himself. Now he's got it, Millukiiii ITS YOOOURRR TURRNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!

#some people would say “oh theyll hate him when they meet him!” but why though. #“the way he dresses!” ?? so what. have u seen the way the zoldycks dress lmfao. their son is literally twinning with that magician #“he'll make it weird” Ya Allah no he fucking wont 💀 people base this off a very fanon characterization of hisoka. #Like no he wont moan out of nowhere because theyre a powerful family he already knows that buddy. #hes kept it in multiple times before in a muted reaction please stop making it seem like hes a man with no self control i beg lmfao #Surprise surprise Hisoka acts weird on purpose when he puts on a show because thats how he wants to be percieved #but hes very self aware and knows whats considered weird and disrepectful and certainly wont fuck it all up for him and illumi for 0 reason #me when i finally get to marry the love of my life and i fuck it up because i decide itd be quirky and the fans want me to #hisoka is a much more calmer and quiet person when hes not purposely being weird and thats what people dont want to accept #anyways rant over #whewwww thats a rant and a half lmfao #I wish hisoka as a character was given more analysis and study than the 3 scenes that make him popular #anyways. rant TRULY over. here are the normal tags #hisoillu #hisoka x illumi #illumi #illumi zoldyck #hisoka #hisoka morow #hisoka zoldyck #hunter x hunter #hxh #my post #i feel like if i mentioned how hisoka has adhd on here id get thrown pitchforks at. #let alone the fact that hes very asexual coded #i dont really feel safe on this website at all to discuss any of this yet lmao #people literally laugh when you say hes shy when its literally??? a canon fact stated by hisoka himself?? and backed up by many scenes???? #but i dont think i ever will feel safe here tbh. i just have to. do it. and fuck it whatever happens or whoever laughs at me. #just like ive done on twitter for years until ive finally created a complete safe space for myself #secret rant at the end because maybe nobody will look here

Here's something I scream about in my head every day: The minor mendings theme is there FROM THE BEGINNING. Literally in the first scene!! In wording so close to what comes later!!

I AM ONE (1) more traumatized character who ends up dying sacrificing themselves for everyone else cause apparently there's no chance of getting better and being happy and the only way you can be useful to society when you're broken is by offing yourself so everyone else can live happily ever after AWAY FROM THROWING MYSELF OFF A BUILDING.

#I've seen this too many time #Just stop #Cause really this is the message that I get from all these sacrifices #I'm sorry I'm a burden and I'm gonna k word myself now so y'all can live your much deserving lives :) #I absolutely hate it #The Magicians #Quentin Coldwater #Stranger things #Billy Hargrove #Eddie Munson #Marvel #Mcu #Natasha romanoff #Killing eve #Villanelle #Harringrove #Attack on titans #Kylo Ren #Star wars #Castiel #Dean winchester #Supernatural #Spn

okay so I’ve been watching The Magicians for the first time with my boyfriend, and we just got to season 5 and I ???? WHAT THE FUCK

killing off Quentin was so??? WHAT! WHY?! Why would you do that?! And like. Why why WHY would he move on so quickly? He was so dedicated to magic and to his friends and he finally FINALLY got Eliot back and he didn’t even get to SEE OR TALK TO HIM AND THEN HE OVERSAW HIS FUNERAL?!

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT

That betrayed his whole character. His whole arc. HIS WHOLE STORY!! He should have been able to fucking live in peace for a second, with the people he loves, and even if he had to die why couldn’t it have been temporary?? He’s moved on, there’s no coming back from that!!! ARGHHGHGHGHGHG BAD WRITING DECISION BAD

#the magicians #MelloMoans #currently watching s5 e1 and it feels wonky now and Alice and Julia are gonna ouija phone him #I just hate hate hate that decision #he shouldn’t have died #they should’ve been able to save him #this isn’t fair to his character and this is horrible pay off for a character who’s done nothing but give #his reward is death??? his reward is the thing he’s had to fight embracing this whole time?? #his peace isn’t death his peace should’ve been living and enjoying the fruits of their labor #yeah there’s magic surges now but like. THEY HAD NO MAGIC FOR SO LONG AND THEN LITTLE MAGIC AND AAAAAAAAAAAARGH #Quentin didn’t even get to ENJOY IT #I’m so fucking angry #quentin coldwater #AND WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH FEN AND JOSH BEING KILLED 300 YEARS IN THE PAST AAAAAAAAAAAA

Sometimes I feel like people will read one (1) story and base all their perceptions of a unit/character off of that which. Just doesn't really work imo, ESPECIALLY in the Reminisce stories.

Of course you won't like Shu if you only read Marionette. Of course you won't like Keito if you only read Meteor Impact. Of course you won't like Eichi if you only read Three Magicians (or literally any other reminisce story). Because they all play an antagonistic role.

You're seeing the absolute worst parts of them, their lowest points, when they're at their most desperate and ruthless. And that can be a good thing!!! I would not have the same understanding of any of these characters if I had NOT read those stories, and I'm grateful that I can fully know them better now! But I feel like sometimes, people run with it way too far, and refuse to acknowledge any change from them, even when all three of these examples have apologized and genuinely attempted to better themselves.

That's definitely not to say you have to read all the stories for a unit/character before forming any opinion on them (I freely admit that I could tell you almost nothing about Eden or current fine's development). However, be aware that your opinion may be influenced by certain stories, and that it is very likely you are missing some context for why a certain character acts the way they do.

Therefore, please stay open-minded, or at the very least, honest and polite!

#shu keito and eichi may have all been assholes at one point or another #but they did it out of love #does that make it justified? hell no! and they admit that! #but shu treated nazuna and mika as dolls because the only way he knew love was to force someone to achieve their greatest potential #keito yelled at and kicked out souma because souma was going in too deep and he didn't want him stained by akatsukis war actions #eichi started the war out of his love for the idol industry with the full intent of eventually being overthrown by people like trickstar #and he keeps tsumugi hiyori and others at a distance because he knows how terribly he hurt them and sees it as taking responsibility #yeah i just. i really love all these characters and don't like them getting slandered for things people don't fully understand #that's not to say i won't slander them because kaoru hakaze is never living down the souma scene in crossroads as long as i live lmao #but genuine bad-faith hate is something im very uncomfortable with and i wish people would realize that they may be missing the big picture #enstars #ensemble stars #ensemble stars music #fandom culture #enstars units #meteor impact #ryusei bonfire #reminisce marionette #enstars three magicians #enstars stories #enstars story #shu itsuki #keito hasumi #eichi tenshouin #enstars war era #enstars war #raelyn rambles
