Fred was able to find happiness through believing his father could be John Cena, he learned to view the world with love. Fred the Movie is kinda like Umineko.

I like Season 0 more tbh. It's fun and quirky and mildly terrifying

Digimon has always been like this.

Tried making a top 100 anime and tbh it kinda just proves how much of a fake weeb I am. Basically anything past 80 was just me phoning it in and thinking "yeah I guess that was pretty good"

Thoughts?

Umineko is such a long story that yesterday I had a moment where I thought “wait did Beatrice make Battler strip naked and walk on all fours like her dog on a chain?”

Checked and, yeah, that did happen but in my defense whenever I think about that section, the cannibalism stuff steals my attention.

Sometimes I will see people discuss Umineko and it's metafictional elements without discussing the equally prevalent commentary on abuse and trauma. They go hand and hand. Umineko isn't just a story about stories. It's a story about the stories that victims tell themselves.

Not unless their bad opinions are part of a consistent pattern that kinda points to misogyny and also they talk about them as if they’re objective fact

You know, for better or worse (for worse), Sword Art Online is almost definitely the most influential anime of the 2010s.

Been curious about this one for awhile. EveryoneI know who's seen it loves it but I have this like psychological barrier between me and it because I kinda just wrote it off as a Mob clone years (it's really not), but Mob is kinda the best thing ever so I'm worried I'll be comparing the whole time.

You can also less legally watch a ton of other stuff free on YouTube. I kinda get the sense Bandai honestly benefits from it enough not to do anything.

A year ago when making the semester show bracket for my anime club (to vote on what show we'd watch through the semester) someone submitted this and somehow it's trailer became the default link for YouTube on my alt browser so if I ever open YouTube it's just this.

They're too busy performing hostile takeovers of companies to hang out.

Any “worst fandom list” is false because for some reason none of them include the objectively correct answer: Snyder fans.

Maybe it’s so obvious that people barely view it as a fandom?

Yes it was a genuine work of art and needs to be watched.

Also for future reference if I come off like I’m ignoring you it’s probably not that I’m annoyed and more that I’m incompetent and kinda just forget to respond.

Tbh I think trying to glean a Deltarune theory from the new content is probably not the best choice. Toby said none of this is the answer, it’s just a possibility, all of it is there to remind you that the world is bigger than you will see and the only limit is your creativity.

The more shunned I will be as the Noelle Knight truther, the more dedicated I will become.
