Blog Updates: New Patreon Stretch Goals, Patreon Exclusive Reviews, New Story Arcs and Other Stuff

MHello everyone. For those of you seeing this through other tags my name is Jake. I do reviews on here that are usually full sumaries of an episode of a tv show or comic, with jokes and analsyis throughout. I’m doing this post as i’ve recently revamped by patreon a bit, check out VIA THIS LINK if your curious. I also have some other stuff going on with the blog that I thought might intrest the general public and especially you lovely followers. Thank you guys so much. Your support means a lot and feel free to interact with this post and any of the reviews. it’s always a pleasure. Leave your comments whatever. So let’s start with the patreon stuff

You Decide the Next Patreon Exclusive Review!:

Yes YOU will decide the Patreon Exclusive review for May. How? It’s simple: i’m currently reviewing the Lilo and Stitch crossover episodes, the first two this week with the American Dragon Jake Long crossover “Morpholomew” done yesterday, the Proud Family episode “Spats” coming later this week, and “Rufus” (Kim Possible) and “Lax” (Recess) coming next week and the week after that respectively.

As a way to gage intrest in the shows crossed over, and if I should review some of them on their own, i’m going to be watching the notes, and after the first week i’ll record how many a review got. This way the first review dosen’t get an advantage over the last and so on. Whichever episode gets the most votes wins and it’s show will get two reviews: One exclusive to Patreon in may you can check out for just a buck, and one for all of ya in June. So if you want to dragon up, get louder and prouder, check out what the sitch is, or have some recess, keep an eye on my blog and check out the review. Like it reblog, it, both. This is all in your hands. And if this little contest works out I may do another one like it in the future.

New Patreon Stretch Goals!:

For those unfamiliar with Patreon it’s a site that helps creators like me get paid for their work, used by such luminaries as Linkara, Pushing Up Roses and greatest of all Rifftrax.

Stretch Goals are an amount of money I get a month from patreons, that’s readers like you paying me. Even a buck a month would help a lot and help me put out a reviews and LIVE off doing this. But it’s a two way street so in order to entice you lovely people into paying me for doing my job and my passion with these reviews, i’ve updated the tiers, adding a wider and better range of rewards. I’m currenntly up to 15 dollars a month, or close enough that i’ve acitivated those rewards. And if you help me hit these tiers EVEYRONE gets PUBLIC, on here, for free reviews. Thanks to my lovely patreons Emma and Kevin you all are getting reviews of the first 5 Ducktales episode, aka Legend of the Golden Suns, with the second coming as soon as I finish this post. Even a buck helps us reach closer and for your dollar you get access to the discord, exclusive reviews, and to pick a short any time I review a bunch of shorts. And with Goofy’s birthday coming up next montha nd Donald’s after that, now is the best time for that. 5 dollar patreons also get one review as month, with 10 dollar ones getting two. You’ve already probably seen some of these: Kev has used one of his a month to have me review a house of mouse episode every month, and newest patreon and longtime friend Emma is using them to have me review the netflix dr. seuss adaptation “Green Eggs and Ham”. So whatever YOU want me to review I will and you’l lhelp unlock even MORE great reviews. So what do you get if you hit the goals? I’m glad you asked.

We’re up to 15 so next is...

20 Dollar Tier: Ducktales 87 Season 2 Mini Series!: Yes indeedy. Already on the Docket was the Super Ducktales Arc, which introducices the OG GIZMODUCCCKKKKK. But since that apparenlty wasn’t enough i’ve also added the OTHER mini series. While i’ll do super first since that’s the one with higher fan intrest once tha’ts done i’ll also review Time is Money, the time travel arc bringing in everyone’s faviroite scrappy Bubba. So if you want a buncha cruncha retro Ducktales pony up. But that’s not all the disney afternoon I got for this tier.

A Darkwing Duck Episode A MOnth: This one has also been promoted every time I could and still stands. If you like that mind behind the shadow disguise, that daring duck of mystery, that champion of right, then you’ll get one review a month about him, as voted on by you patreons.

Danny Phantom: The Ultimate Enemy: And since neither of these have helped me so far and stepping back into Amity Park made me realize how much I love the series, even if it’s creator is a 80 tons of smug asshole packed into a t-shirt he thinks is cooler than it is. So it only felt right to add the ghost boy to the tier and the best way to kick that off is with it’s second best, and only barely second behind Reign Storm, episode: The Ultimate Enemy! Danny finds his future is imperfect and must battle his own evil self! If you want my thoughts on one of the series finest hours, then help me hit 20 bucks a month to keep making content.

25 Dollar Tier:

I removed the Tail Spin content, though rest assured I will be covering Plunder and Lightning sometime this year. But what I replaced it with is even better.

One Danny Phantom Review a Month: YOu like teen superheros? you like ghosts? you like me slagigng off about butch hartman and trying to make it crystal clear his creation dosen’t wholly belong to him? Then you’ll like me reviewing Danny Phantom. And while i’m already doing that, this goal gaurantees one episode a month, and said episode will be voted on by my patreons. So if you pay for this you’ll not only get your monthly dose of going ghost.. but you’ll get a chance to PICK what it is.

Disney Shows To Movies Trilogy : I’ve decided to make it a tradition for my 15 dollar stretch goals to do a bunch of disney movies. And like with my last batch, which you’ll be seeing in may, i’m doing tv shows that got their own movies, theatrical or otherwise. And this time we’re doing MY generatoin: Kim Possible: So The Drama, the best story in the show’s histroy and the best movie in the Disney Channels! Recess: Schools Out! The suprisingly bonkers unsurprisingly awesome finale to an awesome show! and The Proud Family Movie, another UTTERLY BATSHIT finish to a great show. Lost at Sea and Seconds: This one’s for my scottaholics, fourth part of my Scott Pilgrim retrospective coming this week!. If you like me taking a look at Scott’s quest to punch the fuck out of his girlfriends exes while growing up a little, then if you help me get to the 30 dollar tier, i’ll also take a look at O’Malley’s other graphic novels Lost at Sea, which follows a girl who lost her soul and her boyfriend on a trip with what may be Young Neil’s older sister, and Seconds, the story of a woman with issues growing up who finds the ablitlity to travel through time.. or is it space? And some of you savvier readers my know he has nother comic. Where’s that one? wellllll

30 Dollar Tier:

Snotgirl: I’m saving this one for this tier. Reviews of each collected volume of snotgirl, Bryan’s first ongoing series, all three so far and any more to come about, unsuprisingly, a hot mess of a person, this time who might’ve done a murder. You know instead of defintely did a murder but in self defnese and with a longsword.

Gravity Falls Season 1!: One of Disney’s finest finally on this blog. All season 1 episodes reviewed in some way in some shape in some form. Star Vs Finale Arc!: You’ve heard me bitch about the problems in Tom’s story, and wil lcontinue to. Now see the terrible way everyone elses ends! From an amazing build up to an awful finish, see reviews of Every story relevant season 4 episode from Butterfly Follies to Cleaved that won’t already be covered in my tom retrospective. It’s a road to crushing disapointment, come on inside!

35 Dollar Tier: More Disney TV Adaptations!: Doug’s First Movie! See Doug get really fucking weird in his sea monster based movie with a punch line of a name! Teachers Pet, a great movie out of a show I barely saw! Kim Possible Live action! it’s suprisingly okay! and Recess Taking the Fifth: a compliation movie for a season we sadly never got.

Gravity Falls Season 2: Buillding on the first reward Gravity Falls Reviews will go beyond the first season and finish the job. From zombies, to dipcifica, to ford to weirdmageddon, I’m doin it all.

40 Dollar Tier:

Two HUGE Disney Focused Comics Retrospectives!

Darkwing Duck: In addition to the show, i’ll start reviewing the awesome follow up comic that got me into it. From the start to both finishes: the unathorized crossover finale and the sadly short lived sequel series from joe books, the worst mistake disney ever made that wasn’t racist, before Artemis Fowl said hold my beer. Also the short lived Ducktlaes series because why not.

The Incredibles!: The Family Dynamic! A comprehensive retrospective featuring reviews of the movie, the Mark Waid followup, the sequel that ignores said followup and the incomparable Christos Gage’s followup to THAT movie. Also that wonderfuly awful failed tv pilot bob made that he and lucius did a mst3k of.

45 Dollar Tier:

Disney Flims Lilo and Stitch a Thon: All four lilo and stitch movies, Lilo and Stitch, Lilo and Sitch 2, Stitch and Leroy and Stitch! All the hawaii, aliens and sequels you can handle!

Amphibia Season 1: I’ve done Season 2 as it comes out, i’ll be doing the same for season 3, so help me get here to see the start at least once a month, but two at a time!

50 Dollar Tier: The last one for now. I’ll probably go to 10 dollar tiers after this.

The Owl House Season 1: While I wait for the second season to start so I can cover it, have me do the rest of season 1! The only exceptions are the already covered Enchanted Grom Fright and the earmarked for pride month wing it like witches!

The Two Loves and 87 Mistakes of Mordecai: A regular show romancetrospective, as we go through the downs, ups, higher ups and crushing lows of Modercai’s romantic arcs from regular show. His crush on margert, making his move, moving on, moving on to cj, and then the horrible cluster fuck I’ve talked about nonstop and will again and again as one of the worst romantic arcs in memory as they shot the relationship in the foot head and groin! Force me to relive it all!

So yeah I’ll add more tiers, again probably 10 dollars apart if I get to 50, but given I barely got to 15 i’m not optimistic. PROVE ME WRONG. HELP ME HIT 50.

Other Stuff:

Finally outisde of Patreon, that was the main reason for this, I have news on my various arcs. For one thing i’ll be trying to keep the pace better, so expect at least one entry a month for ones i’m doing on my own time like the tom retrospective, life and times and Scott pilgrims. Ones kev does will be done weekly to keep my wallet afloat.

I also have two more retrospectives incoming! The first is paid for by Kev: I’l lbe tackling ALL THREE SEASON 2 ARCS OF DUCKTALES 2017. After the headache of trying to cram the della arc into three weeks to keep up with the lena one, I decided i’td be better for pacing if I did all three at once and kev agreed to it, if using his patreon reviews to cushion the blows. So starting next month i’ll be covering the Louie, Della and Glomgold/Owlson arcs, swapping between them in episode order. With that I should be FAR closer to having covered every ducktales episode. Granted i’ll still have 17 to cover, but it’ll make that much more managable.

The second comes in June specifically timed for Pride Month. With Scott Pilgrim Wrapping up in August just in time for the movie’s anniversary, I decided to start covering another one of my faviorite comics of all time. It’s time to transform, roll out and make this precoius it’s Transformers More than Meets the Eye! For those of you unfamiliar it’s an idw comic that follows a rag tag group of transformers, about half of them gay or gay coded, on a mission to find the lost knights of cybertron and bring ballance to a post war cybertron.. which quickly devloves into hyjinnks with a side order of heartrending deaths and charcter development... and references to dexy’s midnight runners.

So that’s all for now. thank you for reading, please support my patreon as the next pay term is at the start of next month, so if you want me to start on any of those stretch goals, nows the time. Please help me earn a living and until all are one, i’ll see you at the next rainbow.

OK, so last time we did Caroline, my darling little fighter that she is, so I figured I’ll keep the YGO train rolling by doing the... oddest? character I have apparently. Li Gurin, the trans boy flirt that people seem to have trouble realizing is a boy, which is hilarious to me because that’s actually something that’s addressed in his story.

So Li is a trans boy shithead and I love my one and only son.(seriously, he is my only character that is male in anyway. The rest are girls in everyway, how did this happen?) ANYWAYS! So Li has a sibling named Iven and that kid... whhooooo boiii. Iven’s a genderfluid pyromaniac and man they have to actually be the most tragic duo my sister and I have ever made.

Li and Iven were born girls, Lisa and Ivy as the two of them are actually fandom-tied AUs of my main girl and her sister. I’ll address that later, but for now, Li.

Li and Iven both decided they weren’t girls not long before Li turned 10. Their father, an American mob boss, didn’t care too much that his children were okay being boys in any capacity, he had always wanted sons after all, but their mother, a strict and serious Japanese woman, did not approve in the slightest of what the Gurin kids identified as. Li suffered several years of abuse at the hands of their parents as his father tried to turn him into a worthy successor while his mother just plain hated him. Li managed to get Iven and run away to Japan. They jumped from city to city, living off whatever wages Li could scrounge up until they managed to land in Domino City....

Li and Iven, unlike Caroline and Ah-Ra, exist primarily in the Season 0/first few volumes of the manga part of Yu-Gi-Oh. While they don’t play along completely with either continuity, they do draw from both sides.

Li works odd jobs after school, usually under the table but sometimes has to act like his birth given gender, which he hates. I actually have.. the first two chapter, I think? Of Li and Iven’s story saved to my docs somewhere. Li and Iven have a short histroy with Jounouchi cause they attended the same middle school for a few months, long enough for Li to get in trouble and be part of a gang.

Honestly, there’s so much to Li’s story that will probably change how people look at him, but it still means a lot to me to have him the way he is. But anyways, not focusing on all the backstory stuff now, I want to divulge into a certain situation that I did put lots of thought into for Li. An original bit of the series I made just for Li.

The most important bits of this part:

Li is a theater kid and loves being dramatic for the fuck of it.

Li and another student are competing over who’s better at theater

Yami tries to be helpful but Li beats him to the punch (literally)

Li has always held a love of the stage. He’s dramatic, loves attention and is always doing something in an over-the-top fashion. He’s always talking about being in plays and musicals when another student calls him out. They say they’re better at theater stuff than Li and the two decide to have a competition: They’ll put on their own performances, complete with actors, props and story. They’ll put the whole thing together from scratch and whoever does better wins the bet. the loser will never be allowed to step foot on the stage again.

Li, despite the warnings the others give him, accepts.

Li gathers his new friends together and they come up with a plot. They work for a week, everyday after school, meeting up in the gym to make props and costumes. Anzu and Miho help with the two musical numbers Li has planned while Iven and the boys work on props.

On the day of the shows, it’s revealed that he bribed some other kids to act and, while their props are quite well made, the story is horrendous and the acting is sub-par.

Li and crew have a few kids from the actual theater club acting for the play while Jounouchi, Yuugi and Honda do backstage. Li puts himself in as an actor, enjoying Honda’s flustered glares as he and Miho go back and forth. The two boys both have a thing for Miho and Li just loves making Honda jealous.

The performance is so good that the school decides to put Li’s play on as a school performance, leaving Li with full control of the performance. More students audition and Li tells the other student he won’t hold them to the bet, it was all good fun after all!

Midway through the school performance, something goes wrong and Li gets thrown from the stage, injuring himself enough to warrant a hold of the performance. In true Li Gruin style, he returns and finishes the play, with only minimal problem.

It later comes out, once Li’s under proper medical care, that the kid who lost the bet was the one who sabotaged the performance. Yami of course decides it’s time to Shadow Game a mother fucker for getting his friend hurt and nearly in the hospital.

Unfortunately, right when Yami arrives to Get Revenge On A MuthaFuka, he find Li. And it is NOT good.

Li and the kid are using props to attack each other, but it’s obvious that Li has the upper hand despite his injuries. Li puts the smack down on this kid who promptly apologizes, says some shit about “being totally jealous of Li’s talent” even though Li knows kid’s got his head up his ass. The kid runs off and Li spins around to confront Yami.

Yami has no idea what’s going on, but Li tells him to butt out of his business, and the two argue for a hot minute about how Li shouldn’t’ve done that, especially since he was hurt.

Li later talks to Honda about meeting this other Yuugi, but Honda says Li was probably a bit high on painkillers or something.

So yeah, Li’s a shithead who can and will kick ass despite the fact that people still mistake him for a girl (ESPECIALLY people who mistake him for a girl!!!) and he’s also a huge sweetheart. Please, I beg of you, one of you, ask me more about my son so I can gush about him!!!

#li gurin #my gay trans son #yugioh oc #i love himmmmm soo muchhh #let lisa rant #thats the tag for these now #Wild Lisa Writes #its still a rant but im tagging the one shot tag on it too #hans big long oc rambles
