"Maybe I'll kill that reporter who does all your interviews. Maybe I'll kill Clark Kent."

This is the most important line in the movie. I'm 100% serious. It tells you everything you need to know about Lex Luthor's character. It shows the audience that, despite being almost omnicognizant from the get-go, Luthor clearly has no fucking idea who Superman is, only what he does.

I've never seen anyone go from All-Knowing Evil to Absolute Fucking Loser so fast. In fifteen words he went from unstoppable criminal powerhouse to flailing manchild moron. He gave his Evil Dictator demonstration and then turned around, dropped his pants and showed his entire ass. He proclaimed his manifesto of unrelenting ego, turned around, slipped on a banana peel and landed on a whoopie cushion.

And he was so mired in his own sense of superiority that he never even knew it.

Lex Luthor, folks. Ten out of ten, no notes.

Cross Game: Understanding grief, living around it, and pursuing dreams through baseball

I finished my first Adachi manga, Cross Game. And what a treat that was! I don’t think there’s any other mangaka who masterfully writes a good coming of age, slice of life sports manga with a balanced assortment of romcom, family, themes of grief & living around it & pursuing dreams through baseball. Of course, I have qualms about it, like Akane being a mere story device, without even the effort of shelling out her character other than being a spitting image of Wakaba & closing the distance between Aoba and Kou; it may not be a perfect manga to some— nevertheless, I’m still giving it a 10/10 because this is just so wonderfully written I feel like a 9 wouldn’t suffice.

Aoba & Kou’s relationship has always been reliant on subtext, and I think it is wonderfully executed! There were implications that they like each other, sometimes the people around them can bear witness to this. Of course, taking it with a grain of salt, could mean a lot of things. From Ichiyo reiterating how alike Aoba and Kou are, Momiji apologising to Wakaba, to Mizuki realising that the fixated hatred of Aoba towards Kou meant that she was always watching him.

Still, with its vagueness, it makes you think: when exactly did they like each other? Aoba, who is often reminded of her guilt for Wakaba, fixating on her strong feelings of ‘hatred’ towards Kou. Kou, who has always kept a façade & grieves in silence, learning that he can allow himself to love somebody without having to toss aside his love for Wakaba, accepting that it will always be a part of him, that she will always fill that void in his life. Nobody understands this as much as Aoba does, and Kou with Aoba.

Kou & Aoba, finally allowing both of their feelings to reach one another. Closing the distance between them yet still sharing the same love for Wakaba; both of whom remembers & carries & loves Wakaba the most: the two who understands each other, more than anything, more than anyone in the world.

To add, I feel like just had a eureka! moment for this one. I’ve just realised that Kou inviting Aoba to Wakaba’s grave before their last qualifier for koshien was him introducing Aoba to Wakaba as someone he likes in response to their dad’s assurance from before that he needs not to hesitate when he comes to like somebody else… I feel so unwell…
