Maybe it's because I have been with Legends so much that any ship in Stargirl actually works for me

Courtney and Yolanda? Best friends to lovers, traumatized girl and new girl? Against the mean girl ruling the school? Plus the boxing/gymnastics dynamics? Hell yeah dude

Courtney and Cindy? The enemies to lovers of course. Dude. That chemistry class, the parallels, Cindy's knowledge that Stargirl is Courtney. Give it to me

Courtney and Rick, broken people who lost their parents, angry boi and sunshine girl, both are legacies, and that look by the locker I like it

Courtney and Cameron, that mean girls reference thing at the start, art freak and athlete yaaaaassss, and they really look cute together, but also the icicle jr thing, the upcoming drama, yesss

Rick and Beth, which I just actually found in tumblr, that is actually canon, but also works better as the angry boi sunshine girl dynamic, protect beth at all costs and rick def would

I think that's all of the ships I see rn, so yeah, these all work for me, I also wanna explore some Stargirl crossover ships maybe next time

Ah, I don't like the Henry/Yolanda thing nu-uh dude. What you did was unforgivable. Friends, redemption (maybe?) But not a relationship anymore, that was traumatizing. I don't care if you are struggling now.

Quarantine Anime Reviews

I’m procrastinating so let’s rank all the animes I have watched since the start of quarantine (that’s around March). It’s not a lot because I also watch other shows but I feel like some of the ones I have deserve a shout out.

Right how will I rate/review them? Uh, does 1-10 scale work? Yeah, including decimals. I would also explain why so this is gonna be long (and cut into several parts) but let’s get started!

AHIRU NO SORA

Episodes I watched: 1-33? Story: it made you hope then fookin ruins it in the end .. ugh. When she died, I was expecting it, but damn it still hurts. Why do sports animes have feels like these smh OP/ED: uhh I forgot already, march is so long ago and A LOT happened since Fave Character: ooo this is hard, I like this nerd on the gif, because he was already wearing a mask before all of us - but also he’s a science dude who’s just real gifted and everytime he faints was just funny. I want him and that quiet guy from KnB to have a hook shot-off and also for both of them to talk LOL ... but I also like the curly haired pervy genius, he’s funny but analytical and also real good

Rate: 7/10 It was good, emotional, different than Kuroko but it’s not as fun or amazing as the others on this list.

YOWAMUSHI PEDAL

Episodes I watched: 1 - Glory Line Ep.4 (i will get back into this) Story: Look, I clicked on this because I missed going outside and everyone seems to be on bikes and I cannot go ride my bike so let me just watch instead. But I get this story about friendship and rivalry and kinda gay bikers (if you think the gif is gay, there’s so much more on the show) with just lovable and interesting characters ugh. I cannot believe I would enjoy this so much. OP/ED: uhh, those weren’t really catchy, but the most famous song in this anime is ~Hime, hime! Suki, suki daisuki hime!~ IT SHALL BE STUCK IN YOUR HEADS FOREVER I SWEAR! It also gives a boost when you’re biking but haven’t tried that yet. Fave Character: Oh fck, who do I choose? I thought Angel Boy Manami (blue hair above) was gonna die or smth because he’s always animated with angel wings but that’s actually part of him wth. The most interesting for me is Midosuji definitely, but the ones I enjoyed watching are the guys from Hakone esp Gay Terry Izumida and his muscles Andy and Frank, Rabbit Boi Shinkai and his freakin sad backstory, and Not-So-Annoying Arakita, who grew on me jfc.

Rate: 8.9/10 deducted points for the music, and there was also a lot of exposition even when they’re racing. Kinda typical of sports anime, ngl.

ASTERISK WAR

Episodes I watched: 1-12? The whole first season idk Story: Kinda (not kinda) harem, there’s a guy who goes to this school, his sister locked away his powers, teams up with his princess waifu and gets girls while getting stronger and fighting other schools. It’s .. eh, but I liked the design and the hexagons and the idea of schools battling. OP/ED: sorry skipped most of it Fave Character: hmm, maybe Saya (that girl up there) and Toudou. They look kinda gay but also they like the MC which is boo, just get together. Both look like children but are actually really really powerful. Honestly, their fight against the mecha was amazing. I also liked that dumb robot.

Rate: 6/10 art was great but story was boring

CONTINUED ON PART 2

[oojei]

Black Lightning is the BEST WRITTEN Arrowverse show

They don't follow the whole monster/villain of the week thing and they come in chapters

Story is fleshed out, everyone has their own journey, their own stuff to deal with

And yeah that's sometimes (very) stressful, but that's what makes it a good story

The politics and social issues are honestly hurtful to watch because you can see it in real life

Esp the quarantine parts and the occupation? I almost quit because of that

Music is also good like srsly awesome song choices esp during fight scenes and stuff

Oh god the fight scenes too

That thundergrace apartment fight was def foreplay i need more

I love their costumes tbh, i keep imagining Cisco's delight when he meets Gambi

Not just the superhero costumes, okay? Even the civilian ones, esp the villains

Those rich fashion, very nice choices

Also obviously Anissa and Jen's wardrobe too

But the title cards are the best part just look at them

Let me talk about the characters now

Jeff Pierce is such a DAD and i remember that dad talk he had with Barry

I wish i seen more of him as a teacher/principal?

Black Lightning's a bit meh, for me. I think it is the generation gap and the fact that I like Lightning better

The visual effects they use on him, esp that one where he had lightning hoops? Very amazing

Next is Thunder, because I could write a whole essay on Dr. Lynn Stewart so I'll talk about her later

Right, anissa. Tbh i don't feel her that much? Maybe because she's been strong almost all season

She was like this pillar that was confident in herself, in her powers, in what she wanna do and who she wanna be with

Which is VERY AWESOME esp for a woman of color

But idk i just want my characters breaking down and stuff

Like Jen, like Lightning

Tbh I hate her superhero name because it's so similar to her dad

But anyway, i like Jen's journey the most

And. She. Is. The. Most. Powerful.

Period.

I want her to transform to pure energy again just so she can meet gideon and idk ask for make up tips

Her safe space thing actually reminded me of gideon's matrix so

Anyway, her and Khalil are just ugh

Let them be happy together !!!

Also, she and Brandon are just bros oki?

I do like the combination of their powers tho

Which makes me wanna have Jen meet a water-based meta

Maybe Kuasa?

Anyway, Gambi time

Fave old man, i would believe him to be batman

Kinda waiting for a batwoman crossover tbh

But yeah, Gambi is such a badass old man, and I want his sanctum

Special shoutout to TC, let him meet Cisco and Brainy

Oh god TC and Brainy

Obviously TC and Gideon too

Right, do I get everybody on team Black Lightning?

GRACE! I love you I did not forget about you you are amazing with all your scars and trauma and spots and comic book fascination

Please give her a suit

And wake her up from the coma

Remove the order from Gravedigger too, oki? Even though that ASA fightscene was real nice

That's everybody right?

I shall be talking about Villains now

Khalil is first because he uses the line bet villain and hero as a jumping rope

At first i thought he's like Sara Lance but then I realized a lot of people in this show does not stay dead for long

He is such a thirst trap during s3 and i am not complaining

But also my arms wanna try that whole one arm pull ups to the side thing?

Maybe after i actually manage to do a pull up

Petition for him to Salmon Ladder pls

Also that sequence where he's listing the martial arts he knows? VERY COOL

There's one I did not know, that Silat thing?

Anyway, props to Jordan Calloway, he's good as a villain and a nice guy and even the damaged sad boi

At the end of s3 i imagine the Waverider picking him up when he rounded that corner lol

Let him be happy oki?

Next villain, Tobias Whale

That man had such a good evil laugh okay? Very very good. I hate him

And he's such a fancy rich cockroach

Still haven't forgiven him for killing Todd

TC and Todd would've been friends

Or even more (let us not discount that possibility)

Anyway, Lala and Lady Eve, idk they just complicate stuff

But Odell, I WANNA KILL HIM

God he's sooooo ugh

I have so much hate for him and he's still alive so he could very much well be back and ugh

Moving on, Gravedigger is such a well-written villain

He believes he's right, has that special tick that he buries all of victims and his power was awesome too

I want that tbh

Can I talk about Lynn now? Great

I love her, I want her to be my mom but also she is very hot

Christine Adams is a very very VERY GOOD actress, tbh

Her shotgun scenes, caring doctor and then the addiction storyline just *chef's kiss*

Honestly she is awesome and I love her

Imagine the power if she, Lena Luthor and Caitlin Snow worked on some bioengineer medicine

Just ugh, the pretty on the screen

Oh wait, Dr. Jace (RIP) I hated her at first and then when she got to markovia and did that whole how to make friends thing? She's hilarious

Still evil, but I like her

Super smart but dumb about people, that part when she's actually listing down the recipe for Lynn's peant butter cookie

I think I got everybody right? Right.

Let's move on to things I didn't like

Obviously the fact that Anissa and Grace didn't get a wedding like dude that is so unfair

And now Grace is in a coma

In season 3, where is perenna?

Also why did Henderson have to die

Somebody revive him pls

I think I got everything already and I am SLEEPY AF sooo

GO WATCH BLACK LIGHTNING!

[oojei]

Yowamushi Pedal Impressions

Since the quarantine ruined my bike plans, I ended up binging Yowamushi Pedal on netflix (up until Grande Road only, I just realized i'm only halfway) but yeah, i did, in like 3 days.

Overall Thoughts:

Storyline is stretched to the max. Like srsly, they did one ep and the character just biked a hundred meters for a flashback

Dialogue is uh bit cheesy but also long and wordy and ugh let us race not talk

But story was good bro, touching, gets you hyped, makes you laugh, very good

Tbh i skipped some flashbacks

Anyway let us get on with my first (and last) impressions of the characters I have watched. Obviously, until grande road only and SPOILER WARNING

FROM oh another happy smol child, but with glasses

TO best boi, just keep singing just keep singing JUST KEEP SINGING

FROM angry rich boi with trauma

TO eh he is kinda meh

FROM isn't he supposed to be the MC, oh he's the best friend

TO literally naruto from s1 naruto

DAD and PAPA BEAR, nothing has changed

Gay Envy vs Green Hisoka

G A Y

Terry Jeffords but make it gayer

Not very much of a dad, but his eyebrow game is very strong

My spirit animal, the number one complainer, AND rabbit boy, you're not you when you're hungry ALSO sad backstory bros

I shall put the other characters in the next post

[oojei]

Does Luke Fox ever get therapy? Boy had two people killed right in front of him in a span of like five episodes

[oojei]

When you're late to the ZEP livestream and missed all the Zoey/Max scenes: 😢😢😢

The scenes after that: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[oojei]

Dr. Jace created a checklist on HOW TO MAKE A FRIEND i cannot deal with this hahahahahahahaha

[oojei]

HSMTMTS better give me my Nini/Gina Gotta Go My Own Way version

One part is Nini wanting to go to that other school and the other is Gina wanting to stay at East High. Their voices just sound good together ughhhhh

[oojei]

Batwoman: Arrow but GAY

You cannot fight me on that

Bec it is true

Though i like it more than arrow

Just because it's gay

Nah, i think it has a better story than arrow whooops

But yeah it was awesome

I LOVE MARY HAMILTON

Even much better than Felicity i said what i said

But also Alice, she was such an awesome villain i cannot

Actually, she would be a character you could write essays about, with her trauma and how she dealt with it and her motivations and

Basically she's a villain that would be fun with the legends except she would stay a villain

Yeah i don't think the legends could convert her with the power of friendship

Speaking of friendship, i like Luke, he's the Dig

But please get the guy therapy, he had two people die in front of him and a friend electrocuted while he's trapped on a chair

I don't like the Mary/Luke love angle, if they're hinting it. They're like bros

Now Sophie and Kate and Julia on the other hand

It does not need to be a triangle

Reagan's kinda hot too tbh

Everybody's hot ngl

Wanna know what's not hot? Ruby Rose leaving

I was in episode 6 when the news dropped and i wanted to stop watching too

But I stayed for Mary

Have I told you how much I love Mary?

I finished it all and I am onboard for s2 whoever the new Kate is

Because that was one hell of a ride

Esp for Alice

Rachel is AMAZING, best actor hands down

She was just ugh so good

But I will not watch that Queen of Hearts episode again

Which got real dark, real quick

Please let us have a Supergirl/Batwoman crossover for the kryptonite thing

Also, anyone get the avalance vibe off julia and sophie? Super spy and second in command in a military agency?

I also want a crossover with them

Like Julia and Sara would've known each other because they met on some assassin thing and

They definitely flirted fcked

Maybe on the sauna where Sara took out those russians(?)

Which is also the arkham asylum

And the hallways are like iron heights

Overall it was amazing.

[oojei]

Currently watching Black Lightning and damn i want those heels

[oojei]

Just finished Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood today, yes I know I am late but here are some thoughts

A+ story, the twists and the narrative and how it all cam together, WOW

Characters are so well rounded. We see their pain and their happiness and most importantly we see what they are willing to sacrifice for their ideals

Coz that was the whole theme of this show right? Sacrifice

And that made me cry a lot, not just the deaths of my faves (i mean, yknow who they are) but even some of the villains deaths are making me sad

But a lot of the jokes make me smile too, and somehow they don't feel forced

Ultimate fave character is hmm May Chang and Hawkeye because damn gurls are super amazing

Also Al bec he's such a sweetheart

But it was weird at the end when SPOILER he got his body back END SPOILER and the voice was his but i don't see the hunk of metal?

I am happy for him but it is just so weird

Yeah also a lot of the guys here are idiots when it comes to love, except for Al because he's amazing

But yknow, we shall lump Mustang, Ed and Ling in that idiots in love category because they dumb bros

Uh also the soul things was unsettling esp with Envy *cringe*

I also wished Mustang did not cure his eyes in the end, because he could've been a Toph/Zuko child

This is why toph and zuko did not have a life changing fieldtrip

Yeah guess that is it

Will probably not rewatch it because of the goreness and politics but still 9/10

Minus 1 because of the creepy stuff but it is aight

[oojei]

Watched Work It for Jordan Fisher, got Kid Flash in a bird costume and another shirtless Dion scene

[oojei]

Stargirl finale spoilers

Courtney and Yolanda are definitely gfs

Petsitter Mike to the rescue

But don't be Cindy boi

Or his horse hahaha

Just a normal tuesday, Barb

This guy is Shade? And he's working with Gambler?

Barb what is that necklace Barb

They literally adopted the other three

Beth still has parents tho

So what happened to the pink pen?

Girl how are you not even cold

Is this the same clouds as from justin's imagination?

Kinda reminds me of the baymax and hiro thing, it's cute

And we're done!

Did not actually think I would enjoy Stargirl, think I planned on skipping it before

But I lost all my other shows so

Anyway, I am glad I gave it a chance it was amazing

I hope they won't ruin season two pls pls pls

[oojei]
