he is so special to me #チ球の運動について
seneschel.bsky.social
I ALSO THOUGHT OF LOOK BACK... love them
seneschel.bsky.social
the kids' reactions were so good... I hope they see him on the news and go "OMG IS THAT THE CREEPY OLD MAN FROM THE PLAYGROUND"

lots of great stuff about the Orb characters too, including "Badeni is like Rafal with charisma dump stat"

remembered this Uoto interview I really like
seneschel.bsky.social
both these stories posit "what if you could compress the entire spectrum of human existence and emotion into a cycle of repetitive foot motion along a track?" and in TLW it's a cause for despair and in 100M it's a reason for hope
(ignore me, I'm babbling, I just like mashing my Lego blocks together)

The Long Walk is about delving into the bleak irresistible compulsion for oblivion at the heart of existence, through sports. 100M is about excavating the battered but indestructible kernel of worth at the heart of existence, through sports. in both cases you are gay

got a physical copy of TLW novel today (my first and probably only time buying a movie tie-in edition), and I'm just letting it fall open to random pages, and EVERY SINGLE TIME the Gay Oracle presents me with some quote so rich in psychosexual derangement that I need to frantically show it to people
seneschel.bsky.social
I suppose in a sense it's fitting that 100M, a movie all about short runs, got such a short run in cinemas. but I'm mad about it

this is what a rivalmance speedrun with a Tsudaken Ojisan does to a mf

when they transitioned to it being dark out and he was STILL THERE ON THE GROUND I almost lost it

coming back to this after the movie to say that overall (in the manga too) they're not as crazy about each other as I would choose if customising them at the Fujo Store, but they ARE crazy in general, in fun ways that will ensure they lead a fascinating side-by-side existence. they ARE sons to me...
seneschel.bsky.social
I do kinda wish Togashi and Komiya were crazier about each other in 100M, but it's okay, fandom makes up for it
seneschel.bsky.social
the nervous chuckles in the cinema that were rapidly stifled because people were feeling bad for him... I felt so much solidarity in that moment. Togashi was communal cringefail son to all of us
seneschel.bsky.social
I was kinda sad we had to lose Togashi's Deranged Glitch Hallucinations of Komiya (but glad they made one reference to it at least), so I need everyone to know that in the manga young Togashi goes around having nightmares about Komiya and hallucinating him in times of stress

I love Togashi 100M. he has so many problems and you get to watch how he just develops more and more of them as he grows up
seneschel.bsky.social
going into the movie I was like "I just need this scene to be insanely cringe" and they really fucking delivered

thinking about Togashi 100M and the time he (as a grown adult) tried to give little kids advice, unconsciously started crying over what a mess his own life was, and then terrified the kids by having a full-blown sobbing meltdown on the playground. truly another freak son
seneschel.bsky.social
due to IRL bullshit I only just got to watch 100M but I'm so happy... Togashi my unhinged son... Komiya my equally unhinged son-in-law...
seneschel.bsky.social
Komiya and McVries both being number 23 in significant races... they did this for Me specifically

I know I'm in the stage of Fandom Brain where every song applies to the blorbos, but man, I really do think even apart from that Los Campesinos is insanely TLW-coded

explaining to everyone that the reason why I was never athletic was because I didn't want the government to assign me a boyfriend and Big Media told me that would happen if I did a sport

I'm always going on about blahblah book TLW vs movie TLW but every time I see movie McVries/Garraty fanart I cry for 5 minutes anyway so what difference does it really make
