i am nearly thirty hours into hades 2 and nemesis remains the worst part of the experience so far. not only is she relentlessly cruel but her fucking mechanics suck too. she steals your gold?? your fucking boons?? she once forced me into a miniboss fight. i saw her twice in one run and i wanted to snap my controller in half. it’s almost impressive.
fnaf AU where Glitchtrap/Spring Bonnie (or whatever the hell this man is called) is a separate entity from William Afton that kills him and takes over his life.But Glitchtrap genuinely gives a shit about “his” kids.He never screams at them or hits them, never criticizes them about the smallest things, never talks shit about them to people in front of their faces (or at all for that matter).He’s interested in their hobbies, their accomplishments, just their lives in general.He actually says I love you and spends quality time with them.And if Michael notices this change in behavior immediately and helps him not get caught that’s nobody’s business except for his and his father’s.
Every time I talk to a DB fan who doesn't know or doesn't agree that the whole franchise is an adventure comedy first and an action series second I feel insane but then I find an old Toriyama interview,
You made some comedic scenes where you have minor villains Pilaf & co. appear; how did you come up with a balance between laughs and fierce battles? Do you pay attention to the difference between comedy and battle in making a work “entertaining”?
I believe that, when you combine comedy and serious battles, both of them might come alive even more. As for me personally, though, I much prefer drawing dumb jokes to battle scenes.
as a bonus, every time I'm like 'idk I didn't really like most of the DBZ movies prior to Yo Son Goku and Friends Return and BotG,' and get the 'whAAaaT they're so gOOD' (from my brother, tbh askdjs) but they all seemed really Action-Drama and About the Fight Scenes and I'm like 'meh kinda boring tbh' I get to gaze upon,
In the latest movie, Toriyama-san, you participated in the production from the scriptwriting stage for the first time. What is the reason for that? Was there anything you noticed in coming face-to-face with the work after so long?
I was told about a project for Dragon Ball in its first animated film in a long while, and I read the story outline; while the beings “Beerus, God of Destruction” and “Super Saiyan God” (which goes above Super Saiyan) were interesting, the themes were heavy, and I felt that the world was a bit different from Dragon Ball. Rather than telling them about this or that problematic spot, I thought it would be faster if I just wrote it out concretely, and while I had intended just to give them a model―”for example”―my hand wouldn’t stop, and ultimately, I ended up writing almost everything, including the dialogue. I am reflecting on the fact that I did something terribly rude to the scriptwriter.

I can’t get over Kageyama Ritsu…everyone says he’s the more popular, more attractive and cool Kageyama Brother but literally every scene of him at school ever is him avoiding anything that’s not School Council and not talking to anyone or so much as SMILING at anyone. He’s literally Mob if mob styled his hair.
Like honestly Mob and Ritsu are the SAME amount of socially awkward but the issue is that Mob is just more blunt and WILL say he’s not enjoying your company and leave (he’ll try to be polite but it’ll fall flat) but Ritsu is Bound By This Mortal Concept of Social Politeness and wouldn’t just say that to people’s faces so everyone thinks he’s the nicest guy when in fact he’s been hoping to spontaneously learn invisibility for the last half hour
Like that time Tsubomi came to Spirits and Such did you see his face he wasn’t even as intense fighting for his life against Claw as he was hiding from her lmao
Ritsu acts like he’s completely chill but is in fact a pathetic loser (affectionate). He calls his brother Nii-San. He hates Reigen with all the hate in his heart. He found the kid that kicked his ass when he was kidnapped and then let him into his home. He let that guy burn his house down for kicks. He became best friends with that kid. He keeps a spoon in his pocket. He can and will kill people if he feels like it. He got psychic powers and immediately became a villain about it for like 3 whole minutes before getting his ass humbled. He’s literally 13 and it makes everything about him 300% better.
there is something so funny about people using comic panels they clearly don't know/don't remember the context around when trying to say something/make a point... like bruh...
q!Forever, today: BadBoyHalo please please PLEASE fight me to the death PLEASE you HAVE to! For ENRICHMENT!
jokes aside I do kinda feel bad for q!Forever because he’s tried to talk about the election twice with q!Bad and both times q!Bad has been like “ehhh I’ll think about it”
First time was q!Forever asking q!Bad to vote for him which q!Bad hesitated on because he didn’t remember if he had promised a vote to someone else (and for other reasons)
And then the second time q!Forever asks to do a competition for one presidential life - which q!Bad can’t accept because he thinks he needs to be able to sacrifice one of his lives in order for his plan to kill ElQuackity to work - which he promised Max he’d do - which means he can’t lose it to Forever until he knows he can kill ElQuackity without it.
I feel bad - but it’s really funny. And to be fair to q!Bad, q!Forever’s proposal of a competition did kindaaaa come across like “i want to kill you pleeeease let me kill you cmon get rid of those totems so i can kill you just take off your armor and do a water drop with me it’ll be fine I promise :)”
On the one hand I do love Miguel and Jessica as characters and I can understand their perspectives and motivations and they’re very nuanced characters. On the other hand if Miguel goes near Miles or Jess near Gwen again I’m going to jump into the movie and throw hands immediately
