Watched the new Helluva Boss episode and this audio alone gave me an idea.

SPOILER FOR THE AUDIO OF HELLUVA BOSS’ LATEST EPISODE.

Coffee Jelly outright if they met Captain Caviar’s shitty ex again in the present would obliterate him and claim the captain as if he were territory(as seen here).

To those who doubted that CJ can top, here’s your proof. Small stronk depressed anxious traumatized nonbinaryboss.

NO BECAUSE UR ARE SO RIGHT!!! I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME

MONKIE KID S3 SPECIAL SPOILERS BEWARE!!!

Mk is one of the most mysterious characters in this show, and eventho he my fav character, his mysterious lore scares me, ESPECALLY after his encounter with LBD./  Throughout the series, we’re given hints to every character’s origin. Every major plot-important character has a backstory or a HINT about their origin in some way, shape or form. (for example, Wukong, Macaque, Sandy, Pigsy, Tang, Mei, etc.) Mk mentions NOTHING about his origin, not even his own real name.  But we have been given NOTHING about Mk. We don’t even truly know why he was able to lift and use the staff. (or, another side theory, he’s somehow related to Wukong.)  . . .

I have a theory (of course, you’re free to agree or disagree) that Mk and LBD are somehow connected. During the pilot special of season 1, when mk is near the staff, my sister @annoyed-galaxy​ points out that whispers could be heard saying “Monkey king’s staff” or something like that to mk, like coaxing him to pick it up. Like it was his destiny. You could say it was more to the viewer, or hell, even for dramatic effect. But seeing that LBD has whispering echoes around her, AND she manipulates alot of things behind the scenes, it isnt far-fetched.  Also, in certain episodes, Mk’s eyes flicker blue after meeting LBD. Though other characters have met her, and yes their eyes have turned blue. But only if they’re being controlled by her or given her power. Mk has experienced neither, yet there are scenes where his eyes briefly flicker blue and he gets images of LBD in his head.  Not only that, out of everyone in the specials, she interacts with Mk the most. He always seemingly gets ‘hit’ with whispers and echos from her. Mk always subtly freaks out when he’s near her, and she speaks to him out of everyone. Even saying her final words to him. You’d think she’d have way more to say to Wukong, or hell, even Tang, who is OBVIOUSLY related to the great monk in some way, the same monk that sealed her away.  But no, she chose Mk. Out of all of them. Her final words to him sent a shiver down my spine. Its like she sees a portion of herself inside Mk. She sees Mk’s motives damn-near resemble hers. Its like she has a shard of herself in Mk, like how Mei has a piece of the Samadhi fire in her. She even says both of their paths, though have good and understandable intentions, have the same end: pain.  I think Mk and LBD are related somehow, connected. Mk’s calmness was also eerie during that final scene too. He stressed and panics so easily, and yet during this whole special, he was calm. Honestly, too calm imo. I feel like eventually Mk is gonna break, because through all he’s went through in the special, he kept hope. Usually, its admirable. But idk, his persona during these specials felt unsettling to see at some points. He sees this traumatic stuff happening, and yet he continues to keep it together. I feel like in season 4, at one point, Mk is gonna become something he isnt proud of at all, and might even have to make a choice that will change his view on everything. Or even unlock a new power only unique to him.  LBD was such an important villain, and it feels like she burrowed herself in the heart of Mk the most. This definitely isnt going to be the last time we see or hear about her. The next time we do, I worry its gonna be because of Mk.   Because honestly, Who is Mk?

SO SORRY FOR THE LONG THREAD, JUST WANTED TO GET THESE THOUGHTS OUT!! 

[yunaherguiza]

is sun wukong really a demon or is the term ''demon'' used as an allegorical term for his attitude and misdeeds?

Well anon, while I definitely can't claim any expertise on the Chinese concept of "demon," I will say from what I know that "demons" in Chinese culture do seem to be quite different from those from a Euroamerican background.

Mainly, "demon" in Euroamerican culture generally seems to refer to a strictly evil entity--traditionally originating as fallen angel--whose primary goal is to lead humans astray so that they'll sin and be doomed to an eternity in hell. They stand as the polar opposite of the angels and heaven, and while this kind of demon has been depicted in a wide variety of forms, their goals are unchanging.

A "demon" in Chinese mythology, on the other hand, is a "yaoguai," or an entity that's perhaps more akin to the English term "monster" in that while they certainly can be--and as demonstrated by Journey to the West often are-- malevolent to humans, as a group they seem far less interested in leading humans into a life of sin and far more interested in fulfilling their own desires, as well as in cultivating Taoist power so that they can attain a humanoid and immortal form. Yaoguai seem to have a wide variety of origins--to give a sample, the Lady White Bone originated from a human skeleton, Sun Wukong came from a giant stone, and Red Boy was the progeny of two married yaoguai--and they also seem to lead a wide variety of different kinds of lives (some are married with kids, some are warlords, some just keep to themselves, etc.). That said, there does seem to be a commonality between many of them in terms of living in mountain caves and having a distinct preference for human flesh. Even so, there seems to exist a much more fluid boundary between animals, yaoguai, humans, and even gods than Euroamerican thinking usually permits and that seems to be significantly based on how one chooses between the possibilities inherent in one's life. It is this fluidity that makes Sun Wukong such an interesting case; you could argue, after all, that he is both monkey, human, demon, god, and buddha all at the same time.

Here's a few samples from professor of Chinese literature Hongmei Sun's analysis of Sun Wukong in her pretty excellent work Transforming Monkey that go over the ambiguous character of the monkey king:

And finally, as Sun notes, Andrew Plaks argues that “the characteristic Chinese solution to the problem of duality ‘consists in the conception of a universe with neither beginning nor end, neither eschatological nor teleological purpose, within which all of the conceivable opposites of sensory and intellectual experience are contained, such that the poles of duality emerge as complementary within the intelligibility of the whole.’ This argument about the Chinese concept of complementary duality provides an interesting explanation for the coexistence of contradictions in the narrative. It may also count as one of the cultural situation ‘generative of ambivalence and contradiction’ that folklorist Laura Makarius discusses. The concept of complementary duality in Chinese culture certainly helps explain the fundamental ambiguity regarding the teachings in the journey, the most famous being the merging boundary between god and demon.”

-----

So in conclusion--and keeping in mind as always that I'm in no way an authority on this & that people who know more should feel free to add on to what I've said here or correct me if I'm wrong--I think you could certainly describe many aspects of Sun Wukong (including much of his behavior) as demonic, but that this only counts for a part of his multifaceted character. He may be a yaoguai, after all, but he is also the Buddha Victorious in Strife.

----

Also (and in hopes of not being too annoying lol) I’d like to tag the ever-interesting @journeytothewestresearch to this to see if they might have something to add about the nature of Sun Wukong specifically or yaoguai in general.

[yunaherguiza]

Started reading journey to the west for shits and giggles. Turns out. I’m having a blast. I made memes mainly of Sun Wukong cause he’s funny as fuck. Click read more if you wanna see

When you lie about being Buddhist to get you freedom. And it works.

The shit sanzang deals with.

POV: your the jade emperor and Monkey got bored.

I’m only like 20 chapters in. I will be making more of these as the story goes on.
