The girl vs planet YouTube Channel
Wow, it’s been a while. I know I haven’t blogged in a long time. It’s been hard to find motivation or direction in any creative outlet lately, honestly. I still like blogging (aka writing), but the pressure of feeling like it has to please people or be interesting or live up to SEO standards has made it hard to find that motivation.

longtime dc fan and i think a lot of people are angry because alex is obviously one of the most culturally relevant instances of misogyny in media. that being said being more culturally relevant doesn’t mean it’s the worst instance of misogyny and i think bumble definitely experiences more profound misogyny in the way the actual content is presented, if that makes sense
I get you, and that's a charitable way of looking at it.
I think what's rustling my jimmies is that like, there was a couple of WC fans being mildly dismissive of Alex in that note minefield, after dozens of comments of "fuck you how could you let the fridge woman lose" and "Bumble didn't deserve to win ANY rounds" and "how could A CAT experience misogyny." But then WE get blamed for the toxicity because THEY were butthurt that the Funny Cat People have the 'audacity' to win something they feel entitled to.
Like, we've gotta be endlessly charitable as we get openly insulted because they're upset about Alex losing, a very well-known and culturally relevant character with a legacy so massive we have a whole term named after her. But condemnations of "She's just a cat, letting WC into this poll was a mistake, Bumble can't even be a victim of misogyny" only started coming around once I started talking about it.
as if it's OUR fault people got passive-aggressive or even OPENLY aggressive towards us, and that we're "just as bad" for retaliating
But like you said, it's not a "Most Culturally Relevant Misogyny" tournament, it's a "Canon Misogyny Victims" tournament. And you're not even supposed to give a shit that Bumble died. The fat, woman abuse victim is beaten to death by a dictator, and your takeaway is meant to be, "It's so sad that Clear Sky is being blamed for murdering her, now they're all preparing for self-defense against a homicidal maniac, oh nooo :("
And I think that DOES make her deserve the win here! Alex is a MARTYR. Everyone with a brain agrees what happens to her is bad. It happened in her canon because it was bad. We talk about her and keep her memory alive. Bumble gets dismissed entirely out of hand because she's "just a cat in a kid's book" as if that doesn't make it worse, and as if the kid's book didn't treat a domestic abuse survivor like a moron for even asking for help.
Anyway, just to reiterate, I love DC fans. It's not all of you guys. Alex was done dirty and deserves justice-- and it's even kind of a shame that all she became is "The Fridge Woman." I haven't even heard people talk about how she was a wary, responsible person who was still ready to rock with Kyle's new weird glowstick powers, or that she was a journalist, or that she just got brought back in another edition as a Green Lantern only to be revealed as an illusion and re-absorbed back into Kyle's mind. Nope. Even her fans just remember her as The Fridge Woman.

Always ridiculous when male idols are on a photo or in a project together with a woman, and some weirdo fans overreact like "who the fuck is that girl?!"
Bish why are you acting jealous as if that idol would ever date someone as toxic as you?? Come back down to earth and touch some grass.
Especially weird when they even admit that they only hate on the woman (or sometimes even other guys) because they are jealous and feel entitled to let that feeling out. As if that's a valid and good thing to let out in public and make it everyone's problem. I know social media people love to preach that everyone's feelings are valid and all that. Which is true, but that doesn't mean that it's fine to be toxic in peoples faces. Negative and harmful feelings like that should be contained and dealt with in a healthy way. The thing about jealousy and hate is that you harm others and yourself when you let that overtake you.

i really want to work on mizuki's full bio on her actual blog page. there are a lot of canon divergences i put, and i base her on the mizuki route's emotional relationship notes / character growth carrying into resolution route, so mizuki isn't back to just being a 'roommate' which is major emotional whiplash for me after i finish her route; and then go straight back into resolution route.
i'll also be keeping some parts of horadori institute, although mizuki has no memory of her three years of experimentation all the while living with her blood family, she is not a clone of bibi, and in my canon bibi / the masked woman doesn't even exist. she has all the components of a loveable character, and i really enjoy her whenever she's herself, but so much was broken apart for her to exist just like the twist. so that's a big divergence from aini right there. so yes, mizuki was experimented on as shoko has repeatedly in the flashbacks of the first game stated how 'abnormal' her daughter was; probably looking for any kind of 'fix' to make her 'normal', at this point just desperate and hating her own child, so if there's a fix no matter how immoral she'll take it. she's proven she's much like that, and both her biological parents were extremely neglectful. mizuki herself even claims 'she couldn't be ordinary' when visiting bloom park with date near the climax of her route.
she likely paid chikara with her investment fraud money to a degree, to 'fix' her child, note this is the same woman who thought a baby crying was 'abnormal, a freak, etc' so i can only imagine once mizuki's genetics kicked in at a young age, probably still freakishly strong, but not at the heights she's reached at 18, which might have shoko be even more repulsed by a daughter who only deserved love from her, not emotional and physical abuse.
since my mizuki is so intertwined with abis still, she has motive with date getting hurt in the explosion route, and while i write her cringefail dad not missing, that she couldn't protect him when she always tries so hard to protect her little family, is the icing on the cake. she has motive in having a serious grudge with ryuki for that, that takes her time to forgive - but she does, will and i want to at least mention him as a mentor to her, as i was discussing with vernal that date would likely not encourage her to follow in his footsteps / feel comfortable having such a high risk job. so she's very much the 'rookie detective' who has incredible intelligence and cleverness, but can be highly reckless.
she's basically shadowing ryuki and they're both dividing the case together, and my mizuki is more forthright about him getting actual help, because ryuki deserved that, and mizuki deserved to react to further heaps of trauma.
one note is that while it's stated those who were undergoing genome editing by chikara horadori have regnerative, even possibly 'immortal' genes, mizuki does not have immortality. she ages like any other human, and while she does heal faster than the average human being, she still will carry scars and physical wounds like anyone else. the stadium final fight of her getting shot straight through still shows that for her godlike combat ability, no one is immune to getting hurt no matter how powerful / what you're gifted with, not even mizuki.
so yes she has abnormal regenerative abilities, but not the extent that she will have a cut on her finger and it vanishes in two minutes, you know?
i'll also be making a wishlist (thank you livi for the idea!) for mizuki, and also going into how mizuki handles the inheritance of both companies of her biological father, lemniscate and sunfish pocket. she's definitely absurdly rich now, and it's highly unlikely her family and friends will accept blatant heaps of yen, so she'll be covertly helping if the situation is dire for them under anonymous aliases. she does want herself and date, to have a better living situation, more space etc, and does consider it quite often.
also, an important thing is my mizuki like her canon self, truly loves date as her father figure. it's canonly heavily implied before even bonding with him that she still wanted him to need and want her . so while he is vastly imperfect, as all the ai cast members are in their own ways, mizuki wouldn't pick anyone else. but she will pick on him. i did NOT like how they handled them both treating each other in AI2, as they were a huge core of the original game. basically i'll be working on exploring mizuki and fleshing out her bio after i clear bday asks, a few threads, and also working on her wishlist.

The cast commentary audios for Scott Pilgrim Vs The World are hysterical. The one with Kieran, Mark, Aubrey, and Anna is my favorite. I’ve been more than entertained this whole time. All four of them are simply losing their minds and I’m here for it.
