I'm not going to be done crying for a good while.
I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to say rn, but ahhh? I haven't been this way since Rebooted. My coworker will have to deal with me being emotionally devastated for a while. Again. (The worst was after I finished the Wolves of No World series by Romina Garber.)
This was a very good season, despite it being short.
I don't think I can really make any predictions for the next season. My brain is short circuiting rn. So, Siri, play the Linkin Park and VITAS mashup so I can feel something again.
So, tomorrow, it's movie night. Which means, Thursday I'll watch Tales from the Monastery of Spinjitzu and, if the time allows, the first episode of the next season. And, technically, the next series. Until then!
Below the cut are the predictions I got right and wrong.
Correct
Jay is planning on proposing to Nya. He did and I'm so proud of him.
Garmadon is struggling to decide which side he's on. He was struggling against his oni self and his love for his family.
Incorrect
Kai's arc will be very similar to his arc in the early season. It was not. And I'm actually kinda sad about that.
Wu will give up being a master this season. He actually didn't. I'm surprised he didn't pass the mantle down to Lloyd or the other ninja.
Zane will have to say goodbye to Pixal mid-battle. Nope. Only had to say goodbye before a rescue mission.
Pixal will be left behind in a battle or sacrifice herself to save the others. She did go above and beyond to save Lloyd and Garmadon after they destroyed the Realm Crystal and retrieved the Golden Armor. But she was not left behind, and she didn't sacrifice herself.
Lloyd and Garmadon will be kidnapped or something by the oni. They were not.
We will get Wu in episode 3. Episode 4.
Ray will help Kai reforge the Golden Weapons. Bruh. I miss him and Maya. Where are they? What are they up to?
Partially
They're going to lose Cole to the darkness. He did fall into it, however they did not have to fight him to save Ninjago.
Lloyd is going to die. He got better.
Unconfirmed
None :D

MINOR CHARACTER MARCH MADNESS
Get ready for a March Madness Tournament for all the kid characters who exist only in the background, or only once, or just not nearly enough times in South Park. Each poll will last a day, with multiple polls going every day (at least for the start). I tried my best to pick truly minor characters but if you think one isn't minor enough or are sad I forgot one... sorry I don't feel like rearranging the entire tournament at this point 😅
Each character has been sorted into seeds 1-16 based on how prevalent I think they still are in people's memories and then paired up just like regular March Madness (i.e. 1 vs 16, 2 vs 15, etc) so apologies if some early match ups seem unfair. It'll hopefully make any upsets that much more exciting!
And now... the bracket!
See the match ups and follow the rounds below the cut.
ROUND 1—BRACKET 1
Damien Thorn vs Katie Gelson
Annie Knitts vs Sally Darson
Bradley ("Cartman Sucks") vs Baahir Hassen Abdul Hakeem
Mark Cotswolds vs Thad Jarvis
Nelly vs Flora Larsen
Jason White vs Josh Myers
Lizzy vs Cartman's kids (Post Covid)
Charlotte vs Lexus
ROUND 1—BRACKET 2
Gregory of Yardale vs Isiah Jordan
Gary Harrison vs Esther
Rebecca Cotswolds vs Alejandro White
Hebert Pocket vs Marcus Preston
Sophie Gray vs Heather Williams
Terrance Mephesto vs Corey Lanskin
Blanket vs Kyle's kids (Post Covid)
Mercedes vs New Kid/Douchebag
ROUND 1—BRACKET 3
Tricia Tucker vs Davey Solokov
Christophe/Ze Mole vs Lisa Berger
Estella Havisham vs Yao
Kevin Stoley vs Bridon Gueermo
DogPoo Petsuski vs Larry Feegan

your blog reminds me of that old toonheads show
THANK YOUUUUU AHHHHHHH WHAT A KIND THING TO SAY!! you're actually not the first to make this comparison, which i LOVE!! i hesitate to confess that i've never yet seen an episode of Toonheads myself... key word YET!! if i'd have seen it when it was airing at a more cognizant age i know kid me would have eaten it up
but seriously! i'm so happy to hear this :') i love shows like Toonheads because it's proof that The People Love To Learn!! and that's what i aim for! it just feels gratifying to learn something new. and even moreso to share it with others!! i definitely see myself as a bit of an archive account myself--whether you have all the interest in the world in golden age cartoons (welcome to the club!) or absolute squat, i at least hope that at least one person comes out learning something new and is maybe even able to foster that knowledge further! it's so rewarding. like an eternal scavenger hunt for knowledge!! so it makes me quite happy to get comparisons like these. thank you thank you!!

After careful consideration, this is my prediction on how season three, and Young royals with it, ends.
It becomes too much for them both, but especially too much for Simon. After everything that has happened with Sara, and August, and now being under such intense scrutiny, Simon starts to crumble. Wilhelm, who has his fair share of shit to deal with and is slowly, but surely, losing it, is unable to promise him that all will be well and that they'll make it out together. Simon realises that in order to be with Wille he's gonna have to change and become someone he is not, and even if he was willing to do so, Wille would never be able to let that happen, not when it is Simon's authenticity and genuineness that made him fall for him in the first place.
Hillerska either closes down and Wille is forced to leave or Simon goes back to Marieberg. So they talk and they cry and they make the difficult decision to part ways and they thank each other for everything and Wille shares with Simon that he has been thinking about his future and what he wants his life to look like. He tells him that once he's eighteen and of legal age to make decisions for himself, he'll renounce his right to the throne. It is a hard decision, but he is sure of it. With a final smile and hope in their eyes, they promise to meet again someday, when the burden of what they have been through becomes less heavy to carry.
They meet again a couple of years later, at some party or at a concert, and they do not need words to relay what they still feel for each other. Their eyes say it all. And this time... this time they're not letting go.
This is the only version of endgame-but -not-really-endgame I would be willing to accept. Or any version where they may go their separate ways just to find each other once again. I'm afraid my poor heart couldn't handle the alternative.
