What show or movie is a guilty pleasure for you?

When you're sitting neatly on the peak of of Maslow's Pyramid, there are no guilty pleasures - only shamless indulgence.

...

Also the 2003 film, 'Kangaroo Jack'.

i’ll probably regret this but hi, hello, it’s me, the local trash connoisseur.

i am currently requesting some beyblade writing prompts (can include ships) in my ask box so i can do some writing warm ups, or you know so i can just procrastinate finishing my fic longer.

expect nothing of quality or quantity, i’m literally the worst.

this post was sponsored by bad decisions only.

[meowstix]

whatever fuck this i'm in the mood for like. insanely in-depth retrospectives/reviews on old media i need some recommendations.

1. - [Drama - Legendary 14] Gather your wits and lie about the toy aisle's whereabouts. Buy yourself some time.

SKILL CHECK

SUCCESS

“Sir, the toy aisle is over there at that door, right next to the bathrooms.”

DRAMA - Hee hee hee! He doesn’t know that the door actually leads to the employee room! You’re a tricky little trickster, and you LOVE it.

MUGMART SHOPPER - Thank you, lad. It’s nice to see someone that isn’t afraid to talk to me, for once. He walks away, unaware of your devious deception.

INTERFACING - Now, to find your prize. The beyblade box stands tall on the shelf, but not tall enough for you to reach it and rip the box to shreds.

ENCYCLOPEDIA [Easy: Success] - Beyblade (ベイブレード, Beiburēdo, diminutive Bey, from the diminutive of beigoma) is a line of spinning-top toys originally developed by Takara, first released in Japan in July 1999, along with a related manga series. This beyblade in particular, the Beyblade X BX-00 Booster Dranzer Spiral 3-80T, is one of the rare blades from the original anime, aptly named “Beyblade” as well as the two sequel series, Beyblade: V-Force and Beyblade: G-Revolution, and the 2002 film Beyblade: The Movie - Fierce Battle.

INTERFACING - You can feel each crevice and corner on the beyblade. The texture seeps into your senses. It’s beautiful.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - Of course, it’s perfect. Perfect for throwing at people.

INTERFACING - And also for spinning. Yes. For spinning.

SAVOIR FAIRE [Hard: Success] - Take it.

LOGIC - What?

SAVOIR FAIRE - Take it. For free. Steal it. Come and go with your blade in tow. No one will look. No one will know. Take the blade and go.

VISUAL CALCULUS [Godly - Failure] - The store is like what, 100,000 million square feet? There’s probably only like what, 3 people near you? No one will see shit.

1. - [Savoir Faire - Medium 10] Run away with your prize, you slippery little weasel!

2. - I am a normal, law abiding citizen. I am so fucking normal right now. (Put the blade back in the remnants of its box and pay for it.)

3. - [Physical Instrument- Formidable 13] Chuck the blade at someone. Show the world how powerful you really are.

(wonder how did I succeeded the check but) I choose 1 ! (again) I rolled 9

I'm rewatching the original Beyblade series, I was a huge fan back on the day, and ngl, I'm still loving it ♥ I think they're the reason why I love "team VS team" and power of friendship tropes on anime 👊💖

DJINN EQUIP ✕ BIT-BEAST EQUIP ✓

I've been a long time Magi The Magic of Labyrinth fan, and one of my favourite things from the series was the ability of the dungeon capturers to be a vessel and embody their Djinns. From the very first time that I was introduced to the series years ago, I'd thought a lot about how the Equip feature actually suits the Beyblade universe well, it would be a cool way to show the connection between a Beyblader and their Bit-beast.

Thanks to whoever sent in this prompt, because I was finally able to gather the motivation to work on making a Takao-Seiryu fusion edit!

The original image used is from Magi Character Style sheets of Sinbad in his Baal Equip mode.

I seriously, genuinely, DESPERATELY need a Beyblade Original Series fan so that I can rant out my entire story plot.

Please.

A Tumblr user by the handle of @insomniiyac has a beautiful Beyblade Burst OC by the name of Ryley, or as her friends call her, “Dizzy”. She is shipped with Xander, who they have redesigned as a beautiful older college student.

I gotta admit, I’m a sucker for the big/small trope, especially if the big part of that trope is a giant softie, which we all know Xander is.

Though I’ve been getting into the series Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel recently, and I cannot stop seeing Xander and Dizzy acting like Asmodeus and Fizzarolli from Helluva Boss.

I mean… their relationship dynamic is straight up adorable!

So in light of this revelation, I did the only sane thing to do: I doodled Xander and Dizzy saying my favorite lines from Helluva Boss Season 2 Episode 6: “Oops”!

And these are just doodles! If you want to see their original designs, check out @insomniiyac and their Tumblr page!

[scalproie]

Metal Fight Beyblade (メタルファイトベイブレード, Metaru Faito Beiburēdo), is a Japanese manga created by Takafumi Adachi, serialized in Shogakukan's monthly magazine CoroCoro Comic between September 2008 and February 2012. The series is a spin-off of the original Beyblade manga series written by Takao Aoki. The manga inspired an anime production, retroactively named Beyblade: Metal Saga, which

Team Chandora, redesigned a lil cuz it's kinda insulting how boring their designs are lol. I maintained their colour scheme in clothes but changed it to be different from one another. Ig it was intentional for them to wear similar clothes so I let that be. Idk if ppl even remember them so, there're the characters that battle wild fang once. They also fell victim to Masked Bull's "speech" that embarrassed everyone in Japan, maybe something that people would remeber. They are minor one off characters only to be seen once again as a single frame. This post is basically Indian bladers across generations, cuz, I Indian.

I love this guy and his adorable snake friend.

what are they

Below is just me overanalyzing and comparing the generations.

So, mfb. Team Chandora. It's the best in terms of giving them a personality and also screentime. The character names are most probably just slightly altered versions of some really popular Indian actors/celebs. Salhan - Salman (Khan); Vridick - Hrithik (Roshan); Aniel - Anil (Kapoor). Neither of their names are familiar to me, nowhere near a common name in India and, mean nothing actually. So this is how I think they named them. Salhan is the hot headed guy I'm assuming. His design is just as basic as you can get. Even tho he's the leader, I can't say much about him. But he's probably a good starting point in building a character. Which will never happen he's a one-off character. They all pretty much have the same height too, so I gave that a variation in my drawing. Vridick is the tallest. Ok, the first time I saw Vridick I thought "wtf is wrong with him". Like, his eyes. I realised it's just a "animators drawing characters weird in low budget episodes" problem, his design is probably the best of the three. Simple yet cute cuz idk if anyone else has noticed it but he has a little catness about him. The eyes and :3 mouth. It's subtle, but it's there. Just because of that he's my favourite of the trio. (I didn't realise this before but I'm a fan of his corresponding celeb lol) Aniel, is the one I was "wtf" about till the very end. His design is just horrible 😭 like, it SHOWS they really tried making a design look even somewhat distinguishable, but failed. Like with them "eyes that are different from the first two" and "hairstyle that isn't short like the first two" naw. So I just redesigned him to have, pretty much the same hairstyle but doesn't reveal the weird hairline. They are all the snake beyblades, cuz India snake charmers yadayada. Tho their designs don't really reflect the snakey thing; so I just added a dupatta/scarf to reflect that. (I originally just added it cuz it looked cool actually).

I can't help but notice how badly they were disregarded in their episode. Like not even in a way that would teach them to not be so full of themselves, but in a way like they are not even considered to be a proper opponent but an obstacle on the way to defeat the protagonist of the series (I'm talking about kyoya). They get overshadowed by kyoya and ginkas battle. It's actually kinda sad (

I ALSO can't help but notice the Blader DJ of India is based on Gandhi. Lmao. It's actually funny asf. Where did the battle between wild and fang and chandora take place, the Taj Mahal? Idk how many people don't know this but Taj Mahal on contrary to it's name is not actually a palace, it's a mausoleum. You would wonder where the tombs went. Even worse they might be battling ON the tombs. lul (edit: I don't really know lmao. The thing they built seemed like it was based on taj mahal. It's actually pretty neat if they designed it themselves. It's beauty :>)

Now on the bsb, first season bsb Indians we meet are the Charming Princes. They have the weirdest designs of all like wha. The unnamed blader is probably the most normal of them all. But the rest, idk what to say. I kinda like Ronnie's glasses ig, even tho they are impractical. Tho they are the weirdest in terms of design, they are the best in terms of beyblades, as in, a team quirk. That their beyblades are as big and heavy as one can be allowed to have. Makes sense cuz they are all princes of some place. They don't get much screentime either, just some guys the bladebreakers defeat. Robin gets overshadowed (annihilated) by Driger coming back to Ray and his rivalry with Lee.

Next in beyburst, it's Dhaula Giri. So, he's the best in like, overall. He's the best in design, he's not bland or weird, just a normal guy from India. He has a normal generic beyblade (same Suoh's original bey). Nothing crazy and I think that's a good thing. Oh oh, and a cute lil Snaker, I just love him for having a snaker just hang out with him, it's goofy but I actually like this idea, it's way better than giving them snake beys. I think he and Hae Jin would be homies. He's not much personality wise, prolly just a nice guy. Not much plot or screentime either but Hae Jin getting over his fear of his snake friend was neat enough. His name is good too, not entirely random names like Robin or Ronnie, or just jumbled celeb names. Out of all, I like him the best. Tho I'll have to say, if I build upon Team Chandora, I'll probably like them more.
