OH MY GOD FIONNA AND CAKE

I am absolutely baffled that this show exists. I'm trying to imagine how in gods name it even got made

"Hey so we're gonna make some episodes of this 2010 children's cartoon that cater exclusively to that cartoons now primarily adult audience"

and some executives somewhere said

"Yeah sure we'll pay for that"

impossible I don't understand how this happened this show is amazing, it's got stakes, its got songs, its got jokes, its got blood and swearing, its got trauma, its got goofy new characters its got references to goofy old characters its like "hey have you watched the entirety of adventure time multiple times? here's a human version of the character 'Lord Monochromicorn' for you to enjoy" absolute madness I don't know what we had to sacrifice to live in this timeline but it was worth it

I am so unfathomable excited for animation in the coming months

Adventure Time: Fiona and Cake has got me losing my mind, I love how it seems a little more gritty but still whimsical than adventure time (I need to finish watching the last two distant lands episodes first though).

And Scott Pilgrim Takes Off has got me absolutely ecstatic. You're telling me they got almost if not all of the original actors to VA, PLUS Edgar Wright is still directing, AND it looks more authentic to the books?!? God yes please.

I was swimming so much through both of these trailers I could hardly watch them I cannot WAIT

Gotta finish/catch up on Unicorn: Warriors Eternal first through. There's just so kuch good animation I'm so excited!!!

Lae’zel tries to help Gale part 2

Someone dubbed Gale and Lae’zel’s friendship as Lae’Gale and I’m accepting that as canon

I feel that the 2003 Teen Titans cartoon has a weird chokehold over a lot of the DC fandom, particularly the parts that don't actually READ or even like COMICS, to the point where this show, whose creators openly admit had to be simple enough for a toddler to follow, largely informs a lot of fans' interpretations of some pretty complex characters, themes and continuity. The show, specifically, can tend to become nostalgia bait, and I think it's due time for a lot of this fandom to take off their rose-tinted glasses and let the show go.

Like I enjoyed the show growing up and I still have a soft spot for episodes like Lightspeed and Hide & Seek, but...frankly it's a simple show tailored to young kids that just does not, and was never meant to, do justice to the Titans' comic canon. This show could never have done Who is Donna Troy? and conveyed the unlabelableness of Donna and Dick's relationship, but it was never supposed to. Characterisations are intentionally dumbed down, themes are broken down into bite-sized morals, half of the show is dedicated to comedy, and character development is purposely few and far between because this show was designed for kids aged 2-11. And all that is fine but it's just not at all a reflection of what the Titans really are in print. It should not really inform any serious reading of the DC comic universe.

On the one hand, I really didn't need to see a Red X comic arc or Starfire talking in broken english in a comic, it's all just cheap nostalgia bait that people need to stop falling for. It's sacrificing theme in favour of cheap references. On the other hand, I do think the fans I'm talking about probably owe it to themselves to a) be a little more honest and critical about their engagement with DC media, and b) challenge themselves more when engaging in media to avoid wallowing in flanderized fluff.
