#and plot points

[review-anon]

So... Okazaki Hanano- or rather, Yume Yonekura thoughts?

//So normally I don't talk about people I already covered.

//However to say a lot has been discovered about Okazaki in Chapter 3 is a bit of a underestatement so she's getting a bit of a update.

//As I already talked about her general personality and her Chapter 1 +2 actions this will exclusively cover her Chapter 3 actions.

//Under the cut we go:

//When we start off Chapter 3, Okazaki is on full blast from Watari since due to her immoral actions in Chapter 2's investigation, people are getting nervous of her. She seems apologetic to Watari and vows she will try to be better...

//Of course we all know that was a fucking lie, since Okazaki doubles down on her tormenting Wada. At first we didn't know why she was doing this other then the lulz but now knowing Okazaki's true nature, I felt she did this to get a rise out of Tsuno given how protective she is over Wada. Heck her savagely beating up Wada was to try and get him away from the 3D printer as she needed to use it for her plans.

//It was foreshadowed about her true nature from how she interacts with Tsuno and people complaining their stuff was going missing as remember when Hirokai was on Harada's case for his drugs being missing? Well...turns out Okazaki has been doing a bit of borrowing without permission, for no other reason then because she can.

//I got some backlash from the Tetro Pink community for calling Okazaki a sociopath due to ableist reasons, now I will like to retract my sociopathic statement on her since a key takeaway from them is that they have no empathy, that caring for others is something they don't instinctively have and have to pretend to care but most of the time they...struggle. Levi from Despair Time is a very good example from this as I do believe he is a sociopath but he behaves more like a realistic portayal of one, someone who tries to blend in and do good but they trying to work out a manual that others just know by instinct. Meanwhile Okazaki does actually care for Watari. Its in a very twisted manner, but she does possess some empathy, so she doesn't fit and Okazaki's twisted behaviour does have another explanation for it.

//I said from the start that she was the most likely person to double murder and I was completely right. I'm just so glad that my mistrust in Okazaki was well placed as well obviously I didn't expect the supervillain twist but let's face it, I don't think anyone did. But her supervillian persona I think has a sad origin behind it as we know she ran away from home and went off to live by herself and after finding out who their mother is, certain behaviour traits make more sense. Most supervillains especially the over the top hammy ones, often have neglectful childhoods and go full ham because they want some level of attention from others as they hate being ignored. This is Okazaki in steroids as she hates the fact that Tsuno, her self-proclaimed arch-nemesis has no idea who she is, and it pisses her off. Okazaki even has a evil laugh "Konkonkonkon" to really hammer it home.

//What I love is when she's going through her breakdown, nobody was taking any manners of this, calling out Okazaki on her stupid reasons to kill, and Wada was almost gonna punch Okazaki but Ojima stopped him, but Ken was ultimately the one who slapped Okazaki, and he berates her for all the horrible shit she's done. Okazaki also manages to be the SECOND person to be the culprit and do a Closing Argument about their own crimes, I said second because sorry Bubbles but Akane Taira did this in Chapter 5 of Danganronpa Another so Okazaki wasn't the first.

//Their execution was as brutal as always as well...not only has Game of Thrones shown how horrible drinking molten gold is, but I believe it was a form of execution in some Mesoamercian Empires and if it was used as that, it shows how horrible it is. And then we get the bombshell that Okazaki's real name is Yume Yonekura, and they are the child of the Mastermind behind the Killing Game.

//I'm not using their real name because its just their birth name, and they have long since discarded it, similar to Mukuro in ASOOT, its not her birth name but we still call her Mukuro. Plus its a horrid reminder that their own mother was the one who killed them for the sake of their experiment. But at the same time, the detached personality of Okazaki, how she doesn't see any issues using immoral acts to get results and acting surprised when people call this out? Seems like the apple doesn't fall far from the tree~

//The breakdown is gonna stick in your head for a while but the question is, will it be a good one or a bad one, only time will tell.

it is legit bizarre to me how hard video game creators and film directors and showrunners try to pretend that fat people don't exist. can you think of the last time you saw a fat person in a lead role? god forbid a fat woman? i can walk down the street or go into a shop or restaurant and see fat people everywhere but then i switch on the tv and suddenly it's like a glimpse into an alternate universe where no one has a bmi over 24. insidious and weird

do you ever find yourself bedeviled by writing ideas that are the equivalent of finding a single carrot in your fridge. your brain goes "we should write a pirate story" or "we should write a parisian thief caper" and you ask, "all right, what do we cook with that, then?" and it says "no other ingredients (:"

I think that one thing people fail to understand is that unsolicited literary criticism coming from an online stranger who is reading with no knowledge of what the authors intended goal is, is not going to be received the same as say: the authors beta reader or friends who know what the authors intended goal and has the sufficient knowledge and input to help the author reach that desired outcome.

"But I'm only trying to be helpful" How do I know you have the knowledge and literary skill for you to be able to actaully do that when we don't know each other and you are essentially a stranger to me? Are you applying this criticism based out of personal biased experience and desire to see the story or characterization be driven in another direction or tweaked, or do you know the author's intentions for the character? If the story is incomplete, are you basing your criticism of a character on the incomplete narration with only partial information available of them or are you building up a report until the story's completion? Did the author provide you with the information needed to make a fully informed criticism?

Have you discussed with the author what their plans are or are you assuming them based off the narration, especially if the narration is proven or implied to be unreliable or missing key points of the plot? Are you unbiased enough to help them reach their desired outcome for the characters and story regardless of your personal feelings towards the characters/antagonists and setting? Can you handle being told your specific input isn't wanted because you're a reader and/or have no written anything relating to their genre or topic? Do you understand and respect that the author's personal experiences might influence their writing and make it different than how you would have done it personally? Do you understand if an author only wants input from a specific demographic relating to their story?

If it's for fanfiction or other hobby media, are you holding a free hobby to a professional standard? Are you trying to give criticism because you feel like the author has produced 'subpar job performance' of their fic? Are you viewing their work as a personal intimate outlet or something that must conform with mass media? Are you applying rules and guidelines when the fic is shared for simple sharing sake? Is your criticism worded appropriately and focused on the parts where the author has requested input on rather than a general dismissal and or disapproval?

Have you put yourself in a place where you assumed you have the input needed for the story to evolve better, or have you asked what the author needs and what they're having trouble with? Can you handle having your criticism rejected if the author decides their story doesn't need the change and not take it as a personal offense against your character? Are you crossing that boundary because you think you are doing the author a favor? Are you trying to be helpful, or do you just want to be?

I think sometimes when people hear authors go 'please don't give me unsolicited writing advice or criticism' they automatically chalk it up to 'this author doesn't want ANY constructive feedback on their stuff at all' and not "i already have trusted individuals who will help me with my writing goals and- hey i don't know you like that, please stop acting so overly familiar with me'

Chil becoming a union organizer for half foots makes so much sense because literally any time a half foot was in chil’s vicinity he was looking out for them

Like when marcille & senshi transformed

the thing about trying to recommend fiction podcasts to someone who isn't familiar with them is that not only are so so many genres represented but also the level of production can fall anywhere from "basically an audiobook" to "major motion picture minus the pictures"

can i say it’s contextually crazy that when spite has a knife to illario’s throat, all lucanis can do is fight his own body and yell to rook for help, and spite’s wing moves out of the way so he can turn back towards rook. it’s not a subtle movement, it fully retracts as he turns. if lucanis not controlling the wings is important in the romance scene it’s just as important here. this is a demon that’s fully lost it and taken over and is trying to kill someone its host loves, and lucanis is trying to get help to stop this. and the demon... moves out of the way so that can happen? even in that state, completely blinded by rage, it still wants them to reach out to rook and trusts their intervention
