Thoughts on Fence: Redemption Part IV

With this conclusion we are now at a very different spot from where we were after Fence: Disarmed. Some things were done better and others not so well. While there was no live fencing this time, we did see some major character development for the King's Row fencing team.

Starting with most intriguing change, it was great to finally see Coach Williams fencing even if it was an incomplete clip of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. There is clearly more to this story, and I'm very interested to see how it all plays out.

Seiji had a decision to make, and Nicholas's meteoric rise in the fencing world inspired him to stick with King's Row. I loved how he's finally starting to see the potential Nicholas represents and what he could do if he just wants it enough. It's amusing his casual wardrobe seems to match the rut he finds himself in. Perfectly put together, but very uncreative and predictable. Some spontaneity wouldn't kill him and might actually give him an edge.

I loved the greater insight into Nicholas's world and the little peek into his friend group before King's Row. It was great seeing Coach Joe again and a good reminder to Seiji that fencing can just be for fun. Love the subtle touch of Seiji wearing his jacket at the park. They are becoming a couple whether they admit it or not. As for Kyle, I don't believe he'll represent as much of a challenge to Nicholas the next time they face off. His reaction is the one I'm most looking forward to when the truth about Nicholas is inevitably revealed.

If there was one thing done better in the novels it was Harvard and Aiden's relationship; I was not so fond of seeing the will they or wont they strung out again between these two. Still, it was great to see Harvard work on himself for once instead of constantly giving his best to other people. Likewise, I did enjoy seeing Aiden help out Seiji for his date.

Bobby and Eugene unfortunately did not get as much development this time around and I would like to see more growth from both of them. I still enjoyed seeing Bobby turning into a bit of the resident detective in uncovering the clip of Coach Williams. Will it lead to Detective Rodriguez uncovering Nicholas's secret? Time will tell.

Overall, this story arch has been great. Nicholas is starting to come into his true potential as a fencer, and Seiji is coming realize Nicholas is the only one who can get him where he needs to be. Harvard might actually start to improve his own weaknesses, and Aiden might have to start picking up the slack by helping the rest of the team. I look forward to the next step in our favorite fencing team's journey to the state championship and victory.

I always forget Lupin III has supernatural elements in the movies and shows so when they do come up I'm always caught off guard. Like I've been watching part 4 and there is an episode where he just straight up talks to a ghost and asks no questions. And I just got past the midway point but I don't want to spoil what's happening now.

Thank you @maeashryver for commenting and noticing the lil AT-ATs in the bg of the above panel!

I did a little digging and thought I would compile some info, more comic panels, and some of my own thoughts/theories about this detail!

Disclaimer: This is all according to Legends (aka pre-Filoni/Disney). All comic panels included are from Dark Horse Comics, Star Wars: Republic iss. 55-58. Writer for this arc is Haden Blackman, Penciller is Brian Ching, Inker is Victor Llamas, and Colorist is Joe Wayne. 2003.

It's true, the AT-AT walker is more renowned for being utilized by the Empire after the Clone Wars and the fall of the Republic. But the machine was originally used by the GAR, only once, during the Battle of Jabiim – a planet whose people began siding with the Separatist cause after being put on the back-burner for too long. The unrelenting rain on the planet caused the heavy machinery to sink in the mud, slowing them down and making them easy targets for the native population.

In the comments, I also mentioned that the early prototype of the infamous AT-AT likely did not have the same durability it garners in later eras.

This article explains further how the Separatist fighters were able to topple several of the walkers, whereas Rebellion-era walkers were already vastly improved. I also like that the article points out how this story arc, with these particular machines on the battlefield, demonstrates the fact that the Republic in this time was no different than the yet-to-be-realized Empire...

In other words, the Republic had already become the Empire. The External was simply beginning to mirror the Internal rot and corruption. Jedi, originally labeled peacekeepers, were using their sabers and ordering Clones to harm people who simply wished to be heard, much like the Clones themselves. (Though the Dark side clouds the judgment of the Jedi at this time, the Light still whispers that something is definitively wrong.) Many casualties occurred during this long Battle.

I theorize Palpatine clearly saw how powerful these weapons were despite the devastating loss for the Republic, and decided to improve and stow them away for his Empire.

Look at all these cool panels that include more AT-ATs during the Battle.

+ I was curious if the planet Jabiim was even considered canon at all anymore, and it is! It first shows up in live-action during... You guessed it, Obi Wan Kenobi !!!! So that's fun. Meshing Legends with Canon with my own imagination never ceases to delight me <3 wish I could read these 🥹

++ I had more written about the characters and story arc details but TUMBLR deleted it somehow and posted this unfinished turd so if you want it lmk bc I can't sit here and retype all that rn 🫶🏻🙂 gn squad

+++ This ⤵️ was gonna be a contextual meme. Now it's just real.

Foreclosure Pt IV

Somewhere between the initial inspection and the second official inspection and now there was a series of things that started to go wrong to make them think deeply how stupid it was to pursue this dream. Between servicing the loan, the price of materials and the eventual understanding that this was a bigger project that even anticipated weighed heavily. First there was a leaky tap. Mallory had…
