I will forever hold the stance that a franchise is never truly popular UNLESS it has so much media and merchandise that it constantly contradicts it's own canon continuity to the point fans spend a 3rd of their lives debating about it

I mean can you REALLY say something is popular if you can't spend 4 to 5 hours watching people online argue about the canon continuity and what's the "true canon" between a franchise's movies, shows, comics and toy lines?

EPIC AND GREEK MYTH FANS GONNA MAKE ME CRASH OUT

OKAY SO I HAVEN'T TOUCHED GREEK MYTHOLOGY IN A WHILE ON HERE BUT I JUST WANNA SAY, as I have been sitting on this for MONTHS

Epic the Musical Ody is my personal favorite and I will stand by that

AND

All you heathens need to STOP COMPARING HIM TO HOMER ODYSSEY ODY, AND ILLIAD ODY, AND ANY OTHER GREEK STORY ODY

Stop forcing interconnections between these stories, they are the not the same, they never will be the same. There is no "canon Odysseus"

What he did in one story written by a different person does not mean he still did it in a different story written by a different person. They are all completely different, why else do you think "Post Homeric era" and "Pre Homeric era" exists!? BECAUSE ODY WAS DISPLAYED WITH DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES, DIFFERENT MORALS, DIFFERENT STUFF IN MANY DIFFERENT STORIES BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER HOMER CAME INTO THE PICTURE

The only "canon" to Odysseus that ancient greeks agreed on for his stories from what I can see is that he is 100% loyal to his wife, never cheated on her willingly, king of Ithaca, vibes with Athena, and is a wise and sly trickster/trouble maker. THAT'S IT

So Epic the musical fans, enjoy Epic!Ody for who he is and his stories, stop labeling him for things a version of him did in different stories, written by different people, in a completely different time period. Have fun with his character just like Jay did, be creative, as long as you are respectful to the original mythology and culture as it's own thing

And my fellow greek buffs, LET PEOPLE VIBE WITH EPIC ODYSSEUS, stop saying that it isn't "accurate" or isn't "the orginal Odysseus" when there is no accurate or original odysseus to begin with. In my opinion Epic Odysseus is a great version of Ody especially with how well he has been translated into modern era respectfully and with how Jay fully did his research and read the source material. Yes you should treat it differently than the source material, but that doesn't mean it deserves less respect that any other story of Ody and the Odyssey. It stands on it's own like many others before it and should be treated as such.

BECAUSE I REFUSE TO HAVE ANOTHER PERCY JACKSON FANS VS GREEK MYTH BUFFS. EPIC FANS ARE BETTER THAN THAT AND SO ARE WE COME ON GUYS

THE WAIT FOR THE REVEAL HAS ME IN A CHOKEHOLD

I AM STUCK BETWEEN UNICORNS AND CITY LIGHTS-

Why does that sound like a song lyric-

My team choices for @artfight this year.

Star Wars fans are gonna cause a new crash out in me

Next to the Spiderman fans of course (SAYING AS A FAN MYSELF) and stubbing my toe on the corner of the table leg

I LOVE STAR WARS, I DO, EVERYTHING ABOUT IT

I AM A SUPER FAN MYSELF

BUT OH MY GOD TO THEY HAVE A HABIT OF MAKING EVERYTHING OVERLY COMPLICATED FOR NO REASON

Like I remember one time, I was curious on what afterlife exists in Star Wars, and I saw 80+ answers more contradicting than Palpatine's whole existence in the newest trilogy

AND BEFORE YOU GO "Erm actually the Jedi believe that everyone goes into the force when they die so that must be what happens ☝️🤓"

ERM, ALL MY CHRISTIAN FELLAS SAY YOU GO TO HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE DOES THAT MAKE IT TRUE??

It's a *BELIEF* not a *FACT* and I was looking for THE FACTS, many people in Star Wars have different beliefs the Jedi included they ain't an exception

And before you "Erm but the force exists so it must be true ☝️🤓"

WELL RIDDLE ME THIS FELLOW STAR WARS FAN, how come Qui-Gon Jinn made himself a force ghost when the Jedi hold the belief of your soul losing all sense of individuality (what the Jedi believe in afterlife) and becoming one with the force? Ain't no way you lose all sense of self conscious and suddenly bring yourself back like that.

And even Yoda said himself he came back from the Netherworld and spoke to him and immediately told Obi-wan meaning this is unprecedented meaning YEAH THERE IS AN AFTERLIFE WHERE THEY ALL CO-EXIST TOGETHER CAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY JINN COULD'VE CONSIOUSLY DONE THAT

The Netherworld, there, that is your canon afterlife. No legends bs, no Disney mixed with OG canon bs, just straight to the point right from the full canon source of the movies. There is a Netherworld where all living creatures go when they die and presumably just co-exist for remaining eternity as individuals yet part of the overall force unless one of the Jedi goes 'Ya know, I wanna reach enlightenment' and ascend past that afterlife and visit the living world as part of the force itself and supposedly exists a crazy as afterlife for the evil doers as well. EASY, SIMPLE, STRAIGHT TO THE POINT IT'S NOT THAT HARD GUYS

STOP OVERCOMPLICATING IT AND FIGHTING EACHOTHER OVER IT, IT'S NOT THAT COMPLICATED. I WILL KEEP REPEATING THAT TILL I REACH THE NETHERWORLD MYSELF

[generouskittentidalwave]

I am embedded with the disappointment rage IMA CRASH OUT

NOTHING, I repeat NOTHING makes me more pissed off than seeing people argue about which character would win in a fight against another character IN AN ENTIRELY SEPERATE UNIVERSE. Now don't get me wrong, I love talking about character crossovers and who may win or lose if it is all in good fun

WHAT PISSES ME OFF IS PEOPLE ARGUING ABOUT IT LIKE THEY ARE DEFENDING THE 10 FANDOM COMMANDMENTS

And I don't care what characters they are, even when the character I like wins it still upsets me seeing people argue about it WHEN IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE AND I'LL TELL YOU EXACTLY *WHY* IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE

Because you CAN'T compare the levels of power between different universes. Say if the flash is the fastest man alive in the DC universe, but you throw him into Marvel and the level of speed there by Quick Silver can be a thousand times stronger than that AND YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF KNOWING BECAUSE THE MEASUREMENTS OF POWER ARE ON ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SCALES IN DIFFERENT UNIVERSES.

Just because someone is strong in THEIR WORLD doesn't automatically mean they will be as strong as they normally are when put in A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT WITH AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SYSTEM OF MEASURING POWER. For all we know if The Hulk showed up against Batman, Batman DC strength could be entirely different to Marvel strength causing Batman to easily crush Hulk like a twig bc one of the authors given the power to be in charge of the power system in DC says so AND WE HAVE NO WAY TO TELL

AND THIS GOES FOR ANY FORM OF MEDIA, ANY FANDOM, IN ANY WAY SHAPE AND FORM.

SO STOP ARGUING FOR 5 HOURS STRAIGHT ABOUT WHO WOULD WIN OR LOSE, GOKU OR FUCKING ACTUAL GOD? CAUSE YOU BOTH ARE WRONG, NO ONE WOULD WIN AS IT IS LITERALLY, METRICALLY (I DON'T CARE IF I AM USING THE WORD RIGHT OR NOT) *IMPOSSIBLE* TO TELL

Thank you for coming to my Tedtalk

[generouskittentidalwave]

In an attempt to get more people into the 2003 astro boy i’ve decided to post compilations from every ten episodes of it on my personal youtube channel

But also this is just for any fans of the 2003 tetsuwan atom to watch, ik we’re a dying race

Much love to people keeping this fandom afloat, hope this fandom doesn’t die :(

Spiderman's origin is so simple yet the fans can be wacked as hell

Whenever my rambling ass gets a friend into the absolute GOAT that is Spiderman after my 1 hour speel about him, I always seem to eventually get into the conversation of his actual orgin

NOW THE FANS OFTEN ARE HELLA HEADSTRONG AND REFUSE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEIR HEAD AND THEIR ASS AS PRIDE WON'T LET THEM GET OVER THE "GOOD OLD DAYS"

SO, I give my NEUTRAL ANSWER and simply explain that Spider-Man's TRUE CANON orgin above ALL ELSE, no matter what multiversetotemgod whatever plots, is him getting bitten by an experimented on radioactive Spider and getting powers. No more, no less, that's his origin. It's the only remaining and unchanging constant from Stan Lee himself.

HOW THE SPIDER *GOT* THERE, HOW THE SPIDER GOT RADIOACTIVE, HOW IT GAVE HIM HIS POWERS, WHO OR WHAT MAY HAPPEN TO BE CONNECTED TO SAID SPIDER, ALL THAT STUFF IS DEPENDENT ON EACH ITERATION OF SPIDERMAN AND COMIC RUN, THERE IS NO OVERARCHING CANON, THERE IS NO CONNECTING THEM TOGETHER, EACH ITERATION IS IT'S OWN CANON.

SO STOP FIGHTING EACHOTHER ABOUT IT, IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT. OML YA'LL GONNA MAKE ME CRASH OUT-

If we are talking about the modern era with the spidergods and totems and all that jazz some iterations have (WHICH EXISTS IN ITS OWN CANON), its waaaay more simple than the complicated way fans make it out to be. It's literally just Peter getting bitten as normal, and the ancient spider god, the first spiderman from african tellings known as Kwaku Anansi goes up to Peter and is like "Cool so I see you ended up with spider powers, so have I, wanna be bros? This unlocks many neat connections to others in the multiverse" and Peter is just "Oh sure! That sounds cool!" And Kwaku just stays in touch with him and stays out of the picture for nearly everything after that unless something drastic happens LOL.

So, in conclusion, was the spider placed there by a god? Sure in a version of the story. Was it just a horribly miscalculated scientific accident and nothing more? Sure, in it's own version of the story. The only thing that now and FOREVER remains unchanging is him getting bitten by the radioactive Spider. That's it! That's the only canon unchanging thing! Whatever gets tied to it is whatever the writers wanna tie to it in their own retelling of the character. You don't have to nor should feel forced to look into it any more than that. If you wanna see it in the "it was always destined for him" way, sure! If you wanna see it as the "He was just guy in the wrong place at the wrong time, nothing more" kind of way then sure! No matter what iteration or version of the character you choose to follow, just focus on having fun with it! That's what it's all about!! ^^

I SAID I'VE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE !!!!

Me, in cookie run kingdom: "Man, the white lily x pure vanilla ship is interesting to see but I don't see it ever happening from a narrative perspective, both don't seem to show any romantic feelings towards eachother but seem to care very deeply towards eachother as best friends and care for eachother very well. Either by willing giving eachother space when needed, helping eachother and supporting eachother when they are down, normal close bestie stuff, so I do enjoy seeing them together, and I definitely understand why people see it! But I don't personally see either of them ever thinking of eachother as anything more than best friends. It honestly reminds me A LOT of the Ink x Dream or Ink x Blue ships back in the day in the undertale fandom."

Me: "..... Oh god, wait- those ships, please don't let this happen again-!"

Me: *Sees some people mischaracterizing Pure Vanilla to be a possesively and obsessively abusive lover to say why the ship should happen or why it shouldn't happen even though it makes no sense to his character whatsoever*

Me: *Sees some people mischaraterizing White Lily to be an emotionally distant and neglectfully abusive lover to say why the the ship should happen or why it shouldn't happen even though it makes no sense to her character whatsoever*

Me:

"I'M BACK IN THE FUCKING BUILDING AGAIN, OH MY GOD-!!"

[generouskittentidalwave]

Technically yeah in a creator sense. They're all the cookies "moms" though not at the same time lol

Lol I see your point! Honestly, lemme ramble on the fact that all I know is that they added the ancients into Witch's castle for a reason. I don't know when or even if the first cookies will be in cookie run kingdom and if they are their lore is gonna be heavily moved around a bit especially with the complications of the beast cookies existing.

Each game has their own lore and timeline rather than them being interconnected. So most likely pure Vanilla's similarities with First cream are probably gonna be given different reasonings in each story, especially when Kingdom has more well known and fleshed out lore than Witch’s castle we are probably gonna get a far deeper meaning behind it in Kingdom compared to Witch's castle regarding all of that if she appears in it! Especially when a cookie outbesting the witches which are hardly touched upon in Kingdom to begin with would be waaaay too much and mess with the story too much.

Honestly though I am excited to see where this leads too! It's probably gonna be set up after the silent salt escapade. Especially when we have no idea how pure vanilla or the other ancients came to be in the first place, it would be nice to see it all round up together! ^^

[generouskittentidalwave]

Need confirmation that I am in fact NOT going insane right now

OKAY SO LIKE- THESE TWO LOOK VERY MUCH ALIKE

SAME POSE, SAME POSITION, SAME HOLDING LIGHT SOURCE, SAME EVERYTHING.

AND HIS AWAKENED FORM LOOKS EVEN MORE SIMILAR TO HER

SO RUMOR HAS IT THAT FIRST CREAM AND HER GROUP MAY BE JOINING COOKIE RUN KINGDOM SOON. BUT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT WITCH'S CASTLE RIGHT NOW AS THE ANCIENTS DID MAKE A MINOR APPREANCE THERE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY ARE CONNECTED, WHY THEY ARE CONNECTED, I JUST KNOW THIS ISN'T A COINCIDENCE AND THAT *SOMETHING* IS GONNA COME FROM THIS, I DON'T HOW AND I DON'T WHAT, I JUST GOT THE FEELING, THAT GUT TINGLY FEELING

NOW ASSUMING THAT SHE IS IMMORTAL SHE *COULD* *POSSIBLY* BE HIS MOM AND SIMPLY HAD HIM WAAAAY AFTER SHIT HIT THE FAN WITH THE BEAST COOKIES, SHE HAS A SIMILAR KIND AND GENTLE PERSONALITY FOR IT. OR PV COULD POSSIBLY BE A VERY VERY DISTANT DESCENDANT OF HER.

(ALSO ALSO something I want to point out is that as far as we have seen nearly every cookie connected to the vanilla kingdom that we have seen has blue eyes, pure vanilla is the only cookie from the vanilla kingdom we see with a blue eye AND A YELLOW EYE, YELLOW LIKE FIRST CREAM COOKIE, NO OTHER VINILLAN DECENDANT OR OTHERWISE HAS YELLOW EYES NOR PARTIAL EYES FOR THAT MATTER)

UPDATE: Keep in mind that this is highly assumption based, for all we know the yellow eyes could be a coincidence, and they could've just used the same assest pose for her from pure vanilla the same way that moonlight and pv have similar animation assets. This is just silly fun, not to mention with each games lore existing in their own respective stories and timelines most likely the idea of the ancients in Witch's castle and the idea of the first cookies in crk are gonna be very heavily changed and drastically different from eachother, especially when some of their backstories make no sense for crk like the egg cookie somehow trapping a whole ass witch, which would not fit well nor work with the crk story.

EITHER WAY I HAVE A VERY STRONG FEELING THAT THIS IS GONNA ROUND UP TOGETHER IN SOME WILD WACKY WAY AND I WANNA KNOW FROM BOTH WITCHES CASTLE AND KINGDOM FANS THAT I AM, IN FACT, NOT GOING INSANE

[generouskittentidalwave]

IVE PLAYED THESE GAMES BEFORE!!

Me, in cookie run kingdom: "Man, Shadowmilk and Pure Vanilla are such an interesting relationship from a narrative perspective, they both kind of compliment eachother and I enjoy the depth in their interactions but I don't see it as an end goal for them to be lovers, more like lovehate frenemies type of dynamic. A fun dynamic to witness but can never see it working out for obvious reasons. It honestly reminds me A LOT of Ink x Error back in day in the undertale fandom."

Me: "......"

Me:

I SEE WHERE THIS WILL END, OH GOD I SEE WHERE THIS WILL END-

CRYING, SCREAMING, IN A GOOD WAY

Wait until you find out that in the 2003 dub Uran's english name is Zoran

I started tweaking when someone informed me that Dr.Ochanomizu's name in most English localizations is Elefun. Like what the fuck do you mean??? My Japanese ass was so shocked, I had to look it up because I refused to believe it

Spiderman fans come back to crash me out once more

LISTEN, LOOK AT ME

LOOK ME IN MY EYES

I will FOREVER stand that I enjoy the iterations where Spiderman has ironman has a mentor and that he is a fan of him, or ANY mentor for that fact. I do believe some universes like ultimate (both comics and the series), or the MCU, has its flaws like taking away a bit of Peter's independence, I think it's also important to realize how important him having a mentor is as it's to help him come to the grips that he deserves to have help, he deserves to have someone looking out for him, he doesn't have to be alone. That and I lot of it is really wholesome to see him have other people in his life he can look up to and rely on.

AND YET, THE FANS WHO GET UPSET ABOUT THE WRITERS TORTURING HIM BY MAKING HIM ALONE ALL THE TIME THEN START COMPLAINING THE SECOND THIS MAN GETS A MENTOR FIGURE BECAUSE "HE HAS TO DO IT ALL ON HIS OWN" AND "ITS NOT LIKE THE 616 COMICS"

PICK A LANE HOLY CHEESE WAX

I AGREE HE SHOULD MAKE HIS OWN TECH BUT I DON'T THINK HE NEEDS TO BE ALONE EITHER

DO YOU WANT HIM TO BE ALONE IN CONSTANT SUFFERING OR DO YOU WANT HIM TO HAVE HELP

I will forever stand by the fact that the biggest enemy to Spider-Man more than the writers is the fans themselves

OH AND BTW STOP PUTTING THE 616 UNIVERSE ON A PEDESTAL, I DON'T WANT THAT UNIVERSE HERE, I DON'T NEED NO MORE ONE MORE DAY OR ANY OF THAT YA'LL KEEP IGNORING EXISTS IN THAT UNIVERSE.

LET IT STAY BURIED. LET HIM REST. YOU KEEP WANTING TO BRING IT BACK LIKE THE WRITERS DO, WHILE COMPLAINING THEY NEVER LET IT REST, YOU ARE LITERALLY CREATING A SELFFUFILLING PROPHECY OH MY LORD-
