I'm watching the live action™ and well it's not as bad as I thought, actually it's pretty good overall. Love the cast, the CGI is amazing and damn the locations are beautiful. But I think it misses a core point of the story.
The comedy.
One Piece is a comedy through and through and overall the characters have very comic-like personalities (and reactions ok).
They changed some things which makes sense for a live action but it cancelled the vibes of the series.
Why is Luffy so smart? Luffy is an idiot. He's an idiot and a egoist. What he says to Zoro in the liveaction is way too... Planned. His scripts are relaying too much on that Luffy who "believes in his dreams and crew" which is okay, he is that as well. And Zoro.... Damn so serious. He's an idiot as well...
And I KNOW I KNOW ITS ONLY 8 EPISODES THEY COULDN'T CERTAINLY DO EVERYTHING. But the comedy was a must. I wanted it to make me laugh. It didn't.
It's not reaching its point across. Even though they did great on the Buggy part, it was genius to set it in a circus with the town enslaved- there are some very good parts truly, but still...

I GOT THE BIGGEST DOODLE DUMP HOLY HECK-
It’s ALL TADC so be prepared *cracks knuckles* I also made sure I drew all the cast, Pomni and Kaufmo I already drew so they don’t count BUT I did add them in some sketches- (Mostly Kaufmo-💀)
HERE THEY ARE‼️‼️
Took me a while- BUT DID IT!!!
Pretty proud of myself since I say they all look pretty solid 💪💪 Favorite ones were Ragatha, and Caine 💗💗 (But mostly cuz I LOVE their designs 💥💥💥💥
But if anything, can you tell who’s my absolute favorite?…Pretty hard to guess not gonna lie- 🧐🤔🤨

as a female engineering student i am so grateful to have representation like poppy li. too many “woman in stem” characters are, on top of being really smart, also really cool and really pretty but POPPY is a piece of shit, awkward as hell, egotistical little gremlin addicted to candy, power, and validation. she is the smartest person at mythic quest and also the weirdest person you’ve ever met. i love her so much

The fitzloved zine by @roostercrowned arrived today and it is absolutely gorgeous!! All the details from the envelope to the tapes to the design of the zine itself completely blew me away. Not to mention the amazing art and writing by everyone involved! 💛💛💛

Top five most unhinged things to put in an ao3 comment in ur opinion
this one had me so stumped i actually ended up finishing my homework but anyways
i'm ngl all ao3 comments are unhinged in general so it's really hard to think about so i’ll just try my best
screaming about how horny you are for a character - bonus points if it’s an oc
the fucking wall of hearts - how do you even have time to do all of that in the first place
creepy analysis - either of the fic or of a character
WRITING YOUR OWN CONTINUATION TO A FIC THAT WAS EITHER NEVER FINISHED OR WAS A ONESHOT
maybe when you quote parts of each chapter that you like and then write your reactions and the comment ends up going past the character limit

when children go to war.
a drabble: following round 1 of boel this year.
word count: 353 words
Valter didn’t stick around after his victory.
There was no point—to waste time on waiting, on watching when he could be out there in the brawl. Already, this year’s bout was turning out better for him than the last: he’d even had the chance to avenge himself, in part, about his prior loss to the Golden Deer. (He would not be satisfied, of course, until he brought the Lions to victory as well.) The task was a simple one, really, and he would continue this road until the end.
Lance shatters the grass, crunching dirt; an odd angle. (It’s mostly the result of the suddenness with which he sent it flying.) Iron stood not too far away, easily within hand’s reach if he dashed, but for now–
‘You know, I still treasure that flower crown.’ (A self-absorbed scoff.)
For what was the purpose of such an asinine comment? To remark to a stranger that you ‘cherished’ something from them—really, it only spoke of her more than anything. (To value it to begin with was a foolish thing, but to bring it up as they were opponents, combatants, enemies–)
A crunch from a near distance. Head jerks around, spotting pink—flames conjured to descend; the Moonstone steps back, using the magic as cover. The crackle becomes footsteps, the light casting shadows—he always had thoughts on forests, but for now, it was the sight of an attempted ambush. Hand draws the new weapon acquired from the Golden Deer.
Click.
And the student falls—not dead though, importantly. (It didn’t take much analysis though for Valter to recognize the ease with which it could happen.) Instead, they are only disarmed; rendered incapable of fighting but not of committing the long trek back to camp. It is not the priestess, of course, for he had already defeated her. (The thought isn’t even worth having, to be frank—that somehow, he had not succeeded.) Eyes widen in the shadows, locking for but a moment before Valter smiles, stepping back.
Because in the end, the fight is all that matters. (Sentimentality could find a place in the heart of a weaker man.)
Imitation Dakka acquired!

Also I haven’t seen anyone else mention this but I was absolutely wrecked when the first PJO episode came out
The interpretations were so different in my head
I grew up with these characters
Seeing them represented differently
It basically ruined the whole show for me
These characters were my childhood
And now they’re just
Not the same anymore
And yes I am talking about THE WAY THEY FUCKING PRONOUNCED THALIA’S NAME ALL MY FUCKING LIFE I THOUGHT IT WAS “Tie-la” BUT TURNS OUT IT’S FUCKING
“THAH-LIA”
