augh i’m so glad nimona got saved, but ALSO it deserves so much more than netflix! it deserves a theatrical release! it deserves mountains of merch and esp a little nimona toy that can shape shift transformers-style into different creatures!! it deserves a physical copy available on dvd and bluray, so no one needs to worry about having access to it if netflix one day decides to yank it for a tax write-off or some other equally ridiculous reason!!!

CYOA: You are one of three promising young doctors working under a brilliant diagnostician, and you're also the narrative's stand-ins for the three structural agents of a man's psyche. One of you is destined to inherit the metaphorical throne. What do you choose to do?
--
Inspired by the weird promotional posters of the show. A quick study of the 3 original fellows of House.
I'm on season 4 right now, but the first 3 seasons were so good I can't get attached to anybody else except these 3.
*Updated version with some coloring and line adjustments.

Fakir's theme (Beethoven's Coriolan Overture) always struck me as funny because it stands apart from the other character's themes. Mytho has the delicate Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, Rue the somber Gymnopedie No 1, Duck the cheerful Nutcracker Oveture etc... while Fakir's theme is well... LOUD.
It characterizes his most aggressive moments, mainly playing in scenes where he antagonizes Mytho and Duck.
This always sat a little weird with me as it is a very surface-level character theme for such a complex character. In contrast, Rue's theme tells us something about her motivations under the Kraehe persona. Fakir's on the other hand tells us that he's mean and aggressive... something any viewer who's gotten to a scene where the song plays already knows.
On one of my rewatches, though, I noticed that he has another song that functions as a sort of secondary theme: an excerpt from Scheherazade.
This song plays most notably throughout most of episode 12, while he is bonding with Duck. It shows up a few times later in season 2, mainly in scenes concerning Fakir's struggle to write. As such, I view it as a complementary theme to the Coriolan Overture.
Listening to the song, it feels much more in line with Fakir we've come to know him. The song can be a little delicate and a little sad with gentle wind solos that lead into loud, grand orchestral sections. The repetitiveness, tempo, and use of dramatic brass and strings give these louder sections a gallant, almost desperate tone. It's super fitting that this is the song that plays throughout the episode where we get the best sense of Fakir's natural personality when he isn't putting on the cold persona.
I don't really have a deeper analysis here I just think it's really fun that as his character develops he gets an additional theme. If you think about it the music in Tutu functions as a sort of jukebox musical--the world and characters are built around the songs. Once we start to get to know who Fakir really is, the music that represents him changes to reflect him better.

ok ok ok like i thought “the chosen” would suck cause “blah another series about the life and times of jesus” like we GET it it’s been around for CENTURIES you guys make the same damn movie all the time
but it’s actually legit really good? lots of pretty good representation! not everyone in the movie is white. actual portrayals of jewish culture instead of just ignoring that part. disabled people. matthew being autistic. characters that aren’t just two dimensional. the people in it feel like real people. there’s actual jokes, jesus cracks a few and they’re really funny?? so far nothing hateful, no gay or transgender bashing. it calls out the church for being judgemental and hateful in a way that’s very tasteful
it’s not perfect tho. jesus is…still white for some reason? despite mary not being white? and no one else around him being white? no gay people in it which is kind of a bad and a good thing…but it’s a portrayal of jesus and the people around him as human. as real life people who felt things and made jokes and rolled their eyes and stuff. also the guy they cast as jesus is pretty hot as are all the disciples. which isn’t the point or whatever but i can’t say i’m complaining. it’s free online and i think it’s worth a watch!

probably a silly question, but what version/series of TMMT are your blog and characters (like Tomiko) based off of? I want to have a better understanding of your setting so i figure a good place to start is with watching that :O
oh 100% Rise of the TMNT, there’s really no other version of TMNT that has grabbed my attention and love as strong as Rise has
which, like, i get people saying they love Tomiko even without seeing the show/movie, BUT!! YOU SHOULD WATCH IT TBH. It’s fun! Silly! It’s makes me laugh hysterically! The characters are charming! The animation is Studio Trigger level good!! IT MADE ME LOVE DRAWING AGAIN AFTER A 3 YEAR LONG POST COLLEGE BURNOUT. You certainly don’t need to watch it to like Tomiko, but if you like her you might like it! If it weren’t for the show she wouldn’t exist. also OK granted if you’re a diehard tmnt person it might be hard to get used to the character changes, splinter especially (imo he’s the funniest character in the whole show so i’m biased), but they’re really fun and fresh. Also I’m not in the habit of recommending things I don’t fully love with my whole soul.
anyways just try watching until the “fast and furriest” episode, that’s the one where i realized i was gonna be down horrendous for this show forever tbh (first season and movie is on netflix, both seasons on paramount+, you CAN pirate it I don’t run your life. also you can watch the movie on its own buuuuutttt it’s a richer experience if you watch the show first)
