im really glad they added a magical girl whose focus isn't a skirt because i feel like it's unnecessary pressure to have to wear one (i heard japan's getting a bit laxer about that though)

ohh exciting

kanae: the punk magical girl #madokamagica #character design #shorts tagged for a yt shorts where kanae has punkish blond hair for a japanese girl, violet eyes, pale skin, a punkish sleeveless zip-up jacket with a large metal zipper pulled up to the wide black neck and wears torn black legging-looking pants in a punk style a barely-noticeable opaque violet skirt side-mesh. Her magical item is a freaking golden pipe and there's violet smoke all around her lol.

gonna listen to nun alastor song on youtube 500 times to see if i can alter my brain chemistry into something worse (/positive)

my current ranking of fantasy series exploring colonialism/capitaIism: 1) atla 2) code geass 3) utena 4) mouthwashing 5) castlevania 5.1) hazbin hotel [nun alastor song insane] 6) pratchett's lordes and ladies 7) feh ratatouie 8) SU its ending was rly kid-friendly BUT su futures might be 7.5

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 10d

realized since i started another thread it might not be Clear, but part of what i like about this series up to episode 5 is how visceral + jarring it is about colonialism

gonna get back to watching the rest of it later (still afraid to believe it'll stay this way despite it constantly Amping Up)

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

honestly don't have an issue with people having fun with it, but remembering shit i'd see like that was also part of the experience

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

and Then homestuck got Extremely Real and i was like. jesus thank god bc it's hard to explain how people were like...seeming rly caught up in. not??? seeing what the narrative actually was until it became v clear (tho i can't remember if tavros finally getting a one-up came before or after)

gotta reread homestuck before i do this but one day i want to understand why the early fandom took the rom vs spade shit so seriously... something i remember was like, teens assuming karkat was Genuinely supposed to be helping gamzee. i remember being shocked but i sometimes can't like. process that

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

it feels like "why should i satirize this" but ugh... i will process this later fr. again lords and ladies (pratchett) was More blatantly horror-oriented IF i remember right, but it was pretty f*cking intense

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

this series feels more like. it. fucking hates. satire. i think that's it? like hazbin hotel Understands but Despises satire so the energy came off. Intense to me. hmm. i will process this more later.

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

am back. i feel like the thing i can't handle well about hazbin hotel is that it FEELS like (unsure creator intention) it's a visceral takedown of Needing to dissociate fantasy media from its actual topics. it just feels visceral to me up to ep 5. like castlevania nocturne was Serious but

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

definitely lordes and ladies level up to episode 5 though fffff except lordes and ladies was mostly openly horror iirc (pratchett)

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

however i need to get past episode 5 it could still break down we shall see

keeping it together dot com @sunflowerbonnet.bsky.social · 11d

ik homestuck is sort of like that but its tone is. a little different. hmm. i'm glad viziepop is handling it homestuck is going to be as insane idk who else would handle it bsky.app/profile/sunf...

i feel like the weirdest thing about this series is that it's Not A Comedy (/Horrifying)
