The fact that the entirety of Stars Align is just a wholesome little bingable show and then the last scene is just of Maki at his father's door with the intention of killing him is just...
Like sir, this is a tennis anime.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I LOVE FRIENDSHIP STORIES
Yeah, I'm still gushing about Stars Align because I'm still trying to have it on in the background and it is highly distracting because its so gosh dang good!
The relationships that are built in this show make me wanna cry from how amazing they are.
I gushed about Maki being a good friend to Yu and now this post is me gushing about Toma being a good friend to Maki.
I love this anime so much.

Summary Poem by Taylor Swift
In Summation
At this hearing
I stand before my fellow members
of the Tortured Poets Department
With a summary of my findings
A debrief, a detailed rewinding
For the purpose of warning
For the sake of reminding
As you might all unfortunately recall
I had been struck with a case of a restricted humanity
Which explains my plea here today of temporary i n s a n i t y
You see, the pendulum swings
Oh, the chaos it brings
Leads the caged beast to do the most curious things
Lovers spend years denying what's ill fated
Resentment rotting away galaxies we created
Stars placed and glued meticulously by hand next to the ceiling fan
Tried wishing on comets.
Tried dimming the shine.
Tried to orbit his planet.
Some stars never align.
And in one conversation,
I tore down the whole sky.
Spring sprung forth with dazzling freedom hues
Then a crash from the skylight bursting through
Something old, someone hallowed, who told me he could be brand new
And so I was out of the oven and into the microwave
Out of the slammer and into a tidal wave
How gallant to save the empress from her gilded tower
Swinging a sword he could barely lift
But loneliness struck at that fateful hour
Low hanging fruit on his wine stained lips
He never even scratched the surface of me.
None of them did.
“In summation, it was not a love affair!”
I screamed while bringing my fists to my coffee ringed desk
It was a mutual manic phase.
It was self harm.
It was house and then cardiac arrest.
A smirk creeps onto this poet's face
Because it's the worst men that I write best.
And so I enter into evidence
My tarnished coat of arms
My muses, acquired like bruises
My talismans and charms
The tick, tick, tick of love bombs
My veins of pitch black ink
Sincerely, The Chairman of The Tortured Poets Department

there’s a theory around that peter b stalled miles on purpose to help miguel capture him, which i find kind of funny despite being antithetical to their entire relationship and also not making much sense, because it generously ascribes three things to peter: 1. active maliciousness, 2. the ability to act, and 3. the ability to plan ahead, all traits we have two movies’ worth of proof that peter categorically does not possess

Rewatching acoc after realizing I'm ace is such a god damn joy. Liam Wilhelmina was already one of my fav d20 pcs of all time but now that I'm fully immersed I'm like OHHHHH. He already had me with the crippling lack of social skills. But just so many other things now too. "I have no interest in romance, but I would like to be held." He is so genuinely happy when he is included. Instantly assumes everyone hates him the moment he walks into a room. The terribly strained optimism with everything that goes wrong in his life. The seed guy/war guy dichotomy. He is the best of both. Goes from so soft to so soft and sad, and when he chooses violence it's TERRIFYING. Complete stone-cold apathy facing people that aren't in his small circle of buddies. The Asexual Child coined the term "getting slammed down big style" and that's some peak ace behavior. Also the only correct way that could have possibly happened. Began wholesome and precious friendship with Primsy, and then got engaged with her in the sweetest fucking platonic marriage I've ever seen. Wanted the influence of Candia to be spread throughout Calorum and obviously the only way to do that is for the land to quadruple in size cuz y'know it ONLY MAKES SENSE. "I'm just sassy tonight." I fucking love him.

I die of happiness a little bit more with each interaction Maki and Yuta have
Tumblr media
They are such good friends to each other. They support one another without question and understand that life is difficult for one another.
I WAS JUST GONNA HAVE STARS ALIGN ON IN THE BACKGROUND BUT I KEEP GETTING SUCKED IN!!
Maki figuring out that Yuta has a thing for Toma and just immediately being all like: "That's cool. Like whoever you like! Anyway, you should be our team manager." It makes me unbelievably happy.
AND LATER ON WHEN YU CONFIDES IN MAKI THAT THEY'RE NON-BINARY! I- I just- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhvbcflaiuyvfeiuyvgwfuyialuvljhvfawyvgfuiywvafer!!!! So good.

I’ve seen posts about how CEO/Musk guy = Mac/Fat Mac/Hawaiian Shirt Mac, but not sure if anyone’s made this comparison yet:
I interpreted CEO guy also as a “representative” of Dennis himself… Who he could have been, had he the luxury to make different choices in his life. Who he’d be if he had money and power. Sure, he might look pudgy and un-Vitruvian, but he’d be relaxing at the beach and he’d be successful—a winner. Happy. If only he could let go of control in his *actual* existence, if only he could let go of his messed up childhood and trauma etc., he could’ve been somebody… Somebody loved, somebody with someone like Mac at his core, loving him with enough heart to be as rare as a diamond—or at least trying his best to make it that way (video call, pressure cooker). Diamonds are pure, tough, precious, valuable. Diamonds are forever... But as it is, Dennis will just subsume them, take this form of love in the only way he knows how—through fantasy and violence and, uh, eroticism. It’s the only way he knows, the only way he’s worthy of receiving it. (Side note: He IS willing to receive/take it now, though - huge step!)
My other interpretation was that CEO guy is a “representative” of Dennis’ health. The guy who plays the CEO is literally the doctor who walks past Dennis in the final sequence, so this tracks. Also, the fact that Dennis presses the man’s hand to his own heart first shows that kind of intrinsic connection/understanding. And, as his health personified, the fact that the CEO is pudgy but ultimately happy and successful—while Dennis is ‘beautiful’ BUT tormented and rage-filled, no matter how hard he tries (even in a fucking delusion/fantasy of his own making)—of course the only thing Dennis can do is fucking rip his heart out and pressurise it into a diamond.
In other words, in his delusion, Dennis himself is personifying his mental health issues/inner turmoil, whereas the CEO is personifying all other aspects of his health and life. There truly is greatness (diamond) within Dennis; he knows this (and this is where Mac comes in… they are inextricably linked, after all.). But the only way Dennis knows how to extract this greatness and love is through rage, fantasy and violence and, uh, eroticism again... All of which are coping strategies, bc he doesn’t actually know how to achieve the greatness he’s striving for—that level of perfection is a fallacy, and he also knows he’s fucking doomed no matter how hard he tries because the problem is in his own mind--an eternal byproduct of his trauma. (the ‘not your fault’ throughout is, again, a huge milestone for him, imo)
The main reason I thought all of this, btw, was the simple fact that CEO guy is wearing a red Hawaiian shirt, a la:
Tumblr media
The Gang Solves the Bathroom Problem
Which, incidentally, is also the only time we ever witness Dennis outright call himself a ‘straight man’ (when he clearly, painfully isn’t), playing up to a false persona of his own creation, with his real feelings being completely irrelevant. As long as he is pretending to be the perfect person -- his trauma/shitty life experience has taught him is the only way to be -- that’s the most important thing of all. with that, he is in control. he is god.
Hmm yes. Thank you for reading my essay.
