no new glasses for me today because the BLOOD VESSELS inside my EYES are rupturing (wahoo!) and I have to see a specialist to see if we can stop it getting worse before I get a new prescription

who was that. that was not Janus who was that
#watched the new asides! hahahahahahaha i have thoughts#mostly positive which is not what i was expecting! i thought they felt in character for the most part#i enjoyed it#but that. was not Janus#youre telling me the master of deception the literal EMBODIMENT of deceit#would get SO drunk around people he quite frankly should not trust yet his arc has not gone that far#that he is saying everything on his mind and being extremely loose lipped#no. absolutely not#i feel like thomas was aiming a gun labeled /reduce character to alcoholism joke/ at logan and last second swiveled and shot janus#point fuckin blank#and the rest of the episode was actually good!!! it was fun!!!!!!! except for the weird drunk cardboard cutout they had standing#where janus should be#for a character like janus alcohol - if its gonna be used at all - should be used as like . a sign of character growth#a signifier of trust . he trusts the others enough to drop those walls . but that is NOT a point we should have hit now#he had a breakthrough with patton but roman hates him virgil hates him#that is not a situation where the embodiment of self preservation js gonna go welp! time to get blackout drunk!#im so . i just . come ON man#roman would get drunk as shit . at thjs point in his arc that even makes sense!!!#taking a bit of liquid confidence when maybe hes not feeling much of his own#though where roman stands in his arc after four entire years of waiting is . fuckin debatable i guess#anyway in conclusion that was not janus . thank you for coming to my ted talk#ts crit#ts critical#ts spoilers

f1newz formula one driver, charles leclerc and singer/songwriter y/n y/l/n have called it quits on their relationship of 4 years, sources close to the pair claim. "it just wasn't working out," the source explained, referring to the long distance between them and their busy schedules. "it just felt like the relationship had run its course," they continued, "obviously, they still hold a lot of respect for each other and will continue to remain close friends, as there's no bad blood between them." for more details, click on the link in our bio.

username what do u MEAN that the relationship just RAN its course?????
username no bc the idea that a relationship can just be over like that, just "run its course" and that you had a limited time with your person, your partner and now it's over. it's so heartbreaking. my heart is breaking for both of them, they were so in love with each other 💔💔💔
username source is like "just trust me on this" lmfaooooo
username no way im believing this shit after charles called her his "motivation and the reason he pushes himself to do much better because she deserves the best"
username her caption, their interaction the last few weeks, this 😬😬😬 it all seems to be adding up i fear
username LMFAOOO NICE JOKE 🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🙏🤪🤪🤪 !!!!!!!!!!!
username "to my muse, i already had an idea of what love would be like but u taught me a whole new meaning of it, i love u forever and ever in each and every lifetime" and u say they broke up???? bro they're not universally allowed to.

Tumblr media
summary ::
song mingi, the very first- and only- and last- vampire the byzantine empire ever saw, never in all his 1,045 years, 2 months, and 10 days of life, thought eh would ever do something as... human... as fall in love.
love...
what a trivial thing...
or maybe not?
and l/n m/n, the live and existing- and heavily triple-checked- faerie in all of seoul, south korea, falls in and out of love like a flying fish in and out of the summer sea.

Walker Scobell X Reader I Series | You Belong With Me 🔱 Part 22
A WHOLE LAND?!🌊🏰 part 1🩵
You were sitting on the couch watching Star Wars Attack of the Clones with Walker!
Tumblr media
It may be a little dressy for just chilling but 🤷‍♀️
"Do you think I would make a good Jedi?" Walker asks you
"No" you reply plainly
He just looks at you with fake shock and asks
"Why?!"
"Well to be a Jedi you have to be able to use the force. I feel like your brain would be easy to use the force on" you joke
"Fine! Let's settle this" he says standing up and lighting his lightsaber
"Must I beat you?" You smirk grabbing your lightsaber
"Alas we must" he said very much like an evil professor
You ran at him and he blocked you with his lightsaber
The two of your faces were inches away from each other
You could tell he was blushing but if he kissed you we would lose the battle
"Is that all you've got mr. Scobell?" You smirk
"Nope just planning" he replies
"Planning what?" You raise your eyebrow
"This" he smiles and tries to hit you in the leg with his saber
He runs at you as you block his hits time and time again
Both of your lightsabers were closing again
"I must say you're good seaweed brain...but not good enough" you say as you "stab" with with your lightsaber as he acts like he's dying
"Someone help me. I'm dying at the the hands of my girlfriend! She killed me!" He whines as you approach him with an evil smile as he screamed away from you
"This is your doom Percy Jackson!" You yell as you raise your lightsaber to hit him one more time
"Please I have a family" he jokingly begs
"I've met them...they won't miss you" you reply
Just as you were about to hit him you phone rings
You grab your phone off of the table and see Taylor is calling you
"And now look at me and this opportunity" Walker sings as you are distracted
He grabs your wrist and flips you on the couch as you answer the phone
"Ugh! Walker I hate you!" You groan
"Ha I win!" Walker cheers
Taylor's POV
"omg that's awesome! Please let me tell her!!" I exclaim
"Yeah sure!" Rick replied
I quickly hung up and immediately called y/n
My little sunshine💞
Ugh Walker I hate you
*in the background* ha I win!
Y/n! Big news!
Ooo!! What?
Wait what was happening just now?
Walker and I were having a
lightsaber battle and he used
me being distracted to his
advantage
WALKER YOU JERK!
*in the background* HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Okay what’s up?
Okay so are you sitting down?
Uhhhh I am now…is everything okay?
YES!! ITS AMAZING!!
Ooo!! Spill the tea girl!
Okay are you ready?
Yes!
Are you sure?
Yes! Tell me!!
A Percy Jackson land in
Disneyland is going to open…TOMORROW!!
WHAT?!
What happened? (Walker asks y/n)
They have kept it under wraps
but they have been building for
the past two years! It’s gonna
be a surprise unavailing
O.M.G.!!! ARE YOU KIDDING?!
No I’m not!
*screaming* y/n what happened?!
(Walker asks y/n)
Y/n…y/n!
*screaming stops* yeah?
They want the cast of
Percy Jackson aka you
to be there to open the land
*thud*
Y/n are you okay?
Huh so that’s what a heart
attack feels like
Are you okay honey? *giggles*
Oh im amazing!!
3rd person pov
You hung up the phone and just stood there in shock
"Y/n what just happened?" Walker asks you with a little mix of worry and excitement in his eyes
You turn to him and hold his hands as you look into his eyes
"You Percy Jackson..." you start
"Yeah?" He replies
"Are getting a land at Disneyland dedicated to you!!" You scream out
He just sits these kind of in shock
"We what?" He asks kind of...not blinking
Awww he said we and you said he🥹
"We are gonna have a part Disneyland dedicated to our show tomorrow and they want us to come for the grand opening" You say
"What?" He says again...I think his brain little frozen from the news
"There is going to be a post of Disneyland dedicated to our show opening tomorrow and we are going to the opening" you repeat still almost screaming in joy
"What?" He says again
"Honey! You heard me! Now please blink or I will punch you!" You joke
"A whole land?!" He exclaims
“Yes!” You smile back
He kisses you as he pick you up and spins you around
"I can't believe it" he smiles big
"I know! Me too!" You smile back
"So wait does everyone know?" Walker asks
"Nope. This is a surprise for everyone" you reply
"Wow this is like all my dreams coming true" he gasps
"I thought I was all your dreams coming true?" You raise your eyebrow
"Yeah yeah before I got this!" He rolls his eyes
"Tread lightly if you might not make it to the grand opening" you threaten
Tumblr media
A/n: THANK YOU SOOOO SOOO SOOOO MUCH FOR 11k READS ON WATTPAD!! WHEN I STARTED WRITING THIS I NEVER DREAMED THAT MANY PEOPLE WOULD READ MY STORY AND I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH!! I LOVE YOU ALL SOOOO SOOOO SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

hahahahaHAHAHA DID YOU THINK I WAS FINISHED WITH MY MONKEY KID/ EPIC THE MUSICAL WORKS? You thought wrong! I have this one up my sleeve and it's definitely my favorite!
Imagine Azure Lion with a reader similar to Penelope of Ithaca.
like, reader could be part of the royalty of some important family among the celestials, but unlike them she wanted to change things by doing something significant even if it was from a political position, or she could even be related to one of the members of the old brotherhood (some demon maybe?)
The point is that Azure ends up being interested in the reader not initially because of her stunning appearance, but because of her mind and her great capacity for politics, being someone who does not like to resort to violence if it is not necessary, he sees the addition of reader as something very good for the group.
and despite being significantly weaker than the rest of the group, Reader knows how to handle herself with her companions, which quite surprises Azure considering her background of nobility (especially if they are human/mortal). but it gives him a better understanding of his new comrade.
(Peng and Tusk made bets to see how long it would take Azure to fall for "the princess", they bet 4 months and a year respectively, Peng won, and how he loves to show off that)
In general they would have a very loving relationship, something like the dynamics of a faithful knight, and the reader being directly from royalty. Both understand each other not only on an intellectual level but also on a spiritual level.
Azure knows very well not to underestimate the reader, but he is definitely more than willing to defend her if necessary if he sees the clear disadvantage between her and her other enemies.
I think it would be shown more when the brotherhood builds its own city, Carme Ridge. reader and Azure would become more focused and could even start a family (or even the child they have could be just a reader), in general everything was going too well.
But of course, we had to put a stop to Azure and the draining of energy from the city. But then i asked me...what if the city continued to function without the brotherhood? What if Reader just kept the city afloat?
This is when the song The Challenge, of Epic, comes in.
Let's say that reader took charge of the city in Azure's absence (and somehow became a long-lived being) and managed to make Carme Ridge go unnoticed by the celestial kingdom, but still be a good place to live away from the gods . She raised their son as best she could (also super young, like Redson perhaps) and in general everything is stable.
the only problem? the insistence that someone take Azure's place as leader of the city and her husband. which generates many insistent suitors who harass her, abuse the hospitality of the royal family, even disrespecting the reader's son.
The reader keeps her head high, she will not let some brutes stain the legacy of her husband and his brothers, but every day they are more impatient, more insistent, angry...she does not know when they will explode.
Although she has managed to keep them at bay with some tricks, such as saying that she would choose a husband as soon as she finished embroidering a Hanfu for her son, sewing during the day and undoing her work at night, this bought her some time, but it is not nothing permanent.
part of her just wants Azure to come back and fix this mess. Even if she can lead this city to prosperity, Azure made her happy.
Then Azure just manages to leave the Underworld, and when he frees Tusk and Peng, they head to Carme Ridge, surprised to see the good conditions in which the city is. but it is understandable when they find out that the reader has been taking care of everything.
NOW, definitely the fact that Azure had left the underworld probably generated certain anomalies, something that made the reader look at it and say "...mh...this is unusual...Azure?" and just decide to take matters into hee own hands, it will buy him more time.
as? just like in the song The Challenge, giving a challenge that only AZURE could do, maybe swing one of his old swords (super big) and cut 12 rows of Bamboo, only whoever did it would be worthy of reigning Carme Ridge ** wink**
Everyone tries, everyone fails, even his son (but he does it with more grace than everyone).
NOW, the reason why I thought of doing this. Imagine Azure hidden with the brotherhood watching the challenge unfold, disgusted to see how these men treat his wife and son, but as reader blurts out the phrase "--because I'd rather DIE than grow old without the BEST OF YOU" and look directly to AZURE, as if she knew by guessing who it was (perhaps for practical reasons he would be with some Glamour) and simply --GHAAAAAAA
I don't know if Azure would be willing to apply a KING moment and make a killing against the suitors, but he would definitely do it if they wanted to do a "Hold Them Down" on his wife and son (you know, kill the child and do...horrible things with his wife), there it would be all "peace was never an option🗡️" and Tusk and Peng support him.
The reunion would be so cute I would say it's similar to when DBK got rid of LBD and IronFan told her how "he's back to her", that's a reader, and Azure is just so happy to finally be home :,)
(just to clarify, he doesn't die here :'D for the good of my heart, maybe I'll do a second part from the son's perspective, but I'll see).

Hi! i love your writing, i was wondering if you could do a beelzebub head cannon list?
love like yours | beelzebub headcanons
masterlist
Tumblr media
a/n: ahhh hi nonnie! Thank you so much for my first request!! <3 ive never done a headcanon list before, so I hope this is good/what you meant! I went with some falling in love stuff since you didn't specify any theme or anything. Happy Valentines!
ineffable taglist: @sarcastic-sourwolf , @angelofthenight <3
---
• They fall without realizing it.
• Centuries of shoving down every positive emotion has them so, so horribly out of touch with their feelings. They don't believe they're actually capable of love. Or anything else that... soft.
• But you make something bubble up in their chest. A kind of fluttering that's refusing to stay down, no matter how many times they stuff it back under the bed.
• It's infuriating.
• It's fascinating.
• You're fascinating.
• Every habit, every mannerism, every little oddity of yours they discover is pinned to the map of you that keeps popping up in their head.
• They don't mean to study you so intensely, it just... keeps happening.
• How can they not?? You're just sitting there being so damn interesting, what else are they supposed to do? Confront their own feelings? Hahahahahahaha
• No.
• They're falling harder every day and desperately trying to ignore the shit out of it.
• Eventually the council gets fed up and stages an intervention. All this emotional repression is piled on so thick its becoming a workplace hazard.
• "You need to get it together, Beez. This is physically painful to watch."
• "I am not in love!"
• "Stop lying. I found this poem in your room. Its horrible."
• "Give that back!!!"
• (The poem is bad. Like really, really bad. It never sees the light of day again, for everyone's benefit.)
• Even after they're done repeatedly going through all 5 stages of grief and finally accept that they love you, it still takes a while longer for them to fess up.
• They chicken out like 4 different times before finally going for it.
• They try to be suave and cool, but you kind of turn them into a puddle of lovestruck goop.
• They dont know how to express their feelings normally, let alone while you're standing right there in front of them, and looking at them with your gorgeous eyes and smiling your little smile and oh god oh fuck---
• It comes out as mostly a string of incoherent words and noises that sound like they might be having some kind of celestial stroke.
• When its clear they're not getting the point across, they just kiss you.
• ...?
• ...!
• !!!!!
• That does the trick.
• <3

Claudia has a pet dragon AU
cute ideas that @strayheartless and I chatted about <3
Claudia probably had a pet dragon at some point that still visits and bothers her for snacks
Dragon: *tail wagging, dancing around, breathing fire* Claudia: *shoves its nose away* go on, git, I ain't got nothin more for ya, you ate all my wolf liver!
Dragon: *rolls on its back asking for belly rubs*
Claudia: ugh, fine. *Delivers belly rubs* Go on, ya daft dragon, I'm taking Cloud to school!
The villagers: ...
Tumblr media
-----------
Claudia and her dragon had their babies around the same time, and babysat for each other.
Claudia and Dragon Mama exchange snacks occasionally; Claudia brings special parts of her kills that she and Cloud shouldn't eat, and Dragon Mama sometimes drops off whole carcasses.
Dragon: this deer ain't worth my time, but I killed it and Claudia might give me wolf liver if I drop by!
Tumblr media
-----------
Mama Dragon is named Asil, and Baby Dragon is named Knarf. Because backwards, that's Lisa Frank, and they look like Lisa Frank characters. And they're scratch-n-sniff.
Tumblr media
-----------
AGSZC visit Nibelheim and AGSZ are panicked when Cloud hears a dragon in the distance and runs off to confront it...only to discover Cloud GIGGLING and play-fighting it. They are more concerned about the giggling, as they've never heard it before.
They expected the Steve Irwin vibes from Zack, who has a pet sahagin in Gongaga, but Cloud was a surprise (he shouldn't have been, he's feral AF).
--
AGSZC: *walking to Nibelheim*
Dragon: ROAR
Angeal: We'd better steer clear, right Cloud? Cloud?! CLOUD!!!
Zack: Where did he even go?! That was so fast!
Sephiroth: Towards the dragon.
Genesis: Of fucking course.
AGSZ: *runs up just in time to see cloud, unarmed, jump on a dragon*
Cloud: KNARF YOU FUCKER I GOT YOU FIRST WAIT NO NOT THE FACE NOT THE FACE HAHAHAHAHAHAHA GET OFF
--
The dragons immediately like Zack because all animals immediately like Zack.
Angeal wins them over through snacks.
And they're obsessed with Genesis' sword and materia, and Sephiroth's hair.
They keep Sitting On Sephiroth and grooming his hair or staring at it, and they keep trying to steal Gen's stuff. You wouldn't think a puppy-lizard-cat is very sneaky when it's the size of a house, but clearly you would be wrong
--
Sephiroth: Please, Miss, I don't know how dragon saliva affects hair, and I can't afford for it to go spiky like Cloud's.
Asil: *still sitting on him and licking*
--
(turns out it's really really good for hair and makes it thick, shiny, and healthy...after you wash out the top layer of slime)
Tumblr media
Knarf and Asil leave Genesis gifts when they steal from him. Sometimes it's worthless crap like a leaf or a rodent carcass; sometimes it's sparkling gems, rare materia, or their own scales, which are hard to come by. There is no pattern.
Genesis tries to bargain with them, bringing an assortment of Wall Market jewelry.
--
Genesis: Shall we trade? What will you give me for this diamond necklace?
Knarf: *holds up a leaf*
Genesis: How about this fake ruby bracelet?
Knarf: *5 rare materia*
Genesis: Ok, then you must give me something great for this fake ruby necklace, which only differs from the bracelet in that it is longer...
Knarf: *dead skunk plops on Genesis' head*
--
Tumblr media
Talking about their childhoods:
--
Sephiroth: My sperm donor would order me to kill kittens.
Genesis: My parents didn't care, but my nanny would hit me with a ruler.
Zack: I'd be sent out into the backwoods to work off my energy and made friends with monsters!
Cloud: I'd go to air jail, where Asil would pick me up by my shirt and dangle me in the air.
Angeal: MY MOTHER SENT ME TO TIME OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR CHILDHOODS
--
Air jail:
Tumblr media
I'd like to think that Sephy starts to have his breakdown, Claudia hears about it and the mysterious head in the reactor, and then sends the boys to help Seph while she and Asil take care of Jenova.
Asil both sits on Jenova and incinerates her, while Claudia shoots Jenova with her biggest shotgun.

Digimon Adventure 01x11 - The Dancing Ghosts! Bakemon / The Dancing Digimon
Previously on Digimon Adventure: Mimi got harassed again and then thwarted Devimon's Black Gear by starving in its general direction. Meanwhile, Koushiro discovered the Dungeon Map. Since Mimi has the Compass, all they need now is the Boss Key.
Now two island shards and four kids are on their way back to the child murderer. That's not necessarily a good direction to be moving in but it is what we're doing.
(Warning: Very long. This one is intensively dialogue-heavy and the dub changes so much.)
Tumblr media
We open on a long panning shot of Infinity Mountain, rising up to Devimon perched at the peak.
Devimon: Chosen Children... Curse the fates that have befallen you! Ahahahahaha!
My man, you do not have to worry about that. They curse the fate that's befallen them practically daily. Mimi just cursed her fate so hard, you have no idea.
That long sweeping shot means Dub Devimon has to vamp for a bit, so his dialogue is longer.
Devimon: I, Devimon, had completely separated those seven brats and their pesky Digimon! That is, until that Tai and Mimi caught up with Matt and Izzy! But I'll make sure they never find their other friends. Especially with the plans I have for Sora and Joe on that lovely day, the Bakemon Holiday! Ahahahahahaha HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Bakemon pronounced (Bah-keh-mon). Nobody tell Devimon that these island shard episodes are happening simultaneously to one another. Also, spoilers, geez. :P
(Can you imagine if they were happening sequentially? We start each one at night with the kids on their beds and then the sun comes up during their episode. That would mean Izzy and Mimi were on those beds for a full day, and Joe and Sora for two. ...poor T.K....)
Tumblr media
Jou's bed did not have the luxury of landing on an island shard. Instead, he's been left adrift in the ocean. We find him cursing the fate that's befallen him.
Jou: This is why I didn't want to go to summer camp....
The dub changes out his despair for seasickness. That's not necessarily added; He does get seasick later in the scene. But it is a different source for his present turmoil.
Joe: There's one thing I've learned in Digi-World: Beds don't make good boats. Urghhhhh....
It's at that moment he realizes that while he's been in his fugue, Gomamon's finished off what's left of the emergency rations.
(I'm surprised there was anything left in that bag. The kids managed to stretch a three-day food supply for six children out to six days for fourteen. They've done an admirable job of only leaning on the emergency supply when absolutely necessary.)
Jou is absolutely livid.
Tumblr media
Jou: THIS IS WHY I DIDN'T WANT TO GO TO SUMMER CAMP!!! I have to study for entrance exams next year to get into a prestigious middle school! Gomamon: No point in telling me that. There's nothing I can do about it. Jou: (picks up Gomamon and shakes him) THEN WHO DO I TELL!? THERE'S NO ONE HERE BUT ME AND YOU, GOMAMON!!! Gomamon: That's true, but we should try floating with a bit more hope in our hearts. That way, we won't end up getting seasick-- Jou: (shakes Gomamon some more) WHAT DO HOPE AND SEASICKNESS HAVE WITH EACH OTHER!? (Suddenly, Jou's forced to release Gomamon and vomit over the side.) Gomamon: Are you okay? Jou: No, I'm not. Gomamon: (rubs his back) That's why I said to have more hope.
Once again, we see Jou cracking under the intense pressure that's been placed on him. This time, not for his responsibilities to the younger kids surviving with him, but for his entire situation and the societial obligations of his age.
Jou was under a lot of pressure before he even came to File Island, and this whole intensely stressful situation has only made it worse. That he's one of the kids whose personality grates against his Partner's rather than meshing with it (Sora, Koushiro, Jou) only serves to amplify his stress.
Similar to his despair, the dub cuts this context surrounding Joe's emotional state. They keep the argument locked on Gomamon eating the food.
Joe: DIDN'T I TELL YOU NOT TO EAT ALL THE FOOD SINCE WE DON'T KNOW WHEN WE'LL FIND LAND!?!? I told you that we'd need to ration, which means to save food for later. As in much later! Gomamon: But it is later, Joe; You told me that twenty minutes ago. Joe: (picks up Gomamon and shakes him) TWENTY MINUTES IS NOT MUCH LATER!!! PLEASE TELL ME THAT THERE'S STILL SOME FOOD IN THE BAG!!! Gomamon: Well, no. Since you can't handle eating and floating on the ocean at the same time, I ate it all. Besides, I need food to Digivolve in case we run into bad Digimon. Joe: (shakes Gomamon some more) SO HAVE WE SEEN ANY BAD DIGIMON!?!? NO!!! IF I STARVE, WHO ARE YOU GOING TO PROTECT!?!? (Suddenly, Joe's forced to release Gomamon and vomit over the side.) Gomamon: That's enough about food. Joe: Urghhhhh.... Gomamon: (rubs his back) Things will get better soon. Hang in there, buddy!
Admittedly, it may have been difficult to localize the pressure of entrance exams to middle school. That's a facet of the Japanese education system that I'm not sure we have an equivalent to here in the U.S.
Nonetheless, the dub version of the scene is much weaker. The original is a characterization moment centered on the philosophical differences between Jou and Gomamon while fleshing out Jou's anxieties. We lose just about all of that in the dub, which replaces it with a comedic misunderstanding bit.
Tumblr media
Suddenly, the boys see a massive crate floating their direction. This changes everything.
Gomamon: A box? Jou: Maybe it has food! Like bottles of fresh water and sterilized food packages! Gomamon: No way. Jou: (shakes Gomamon) YOU JUST TOLD ME TO HAVE MORE HOPE RIGHT NOW!!! Gomamon: Calm down.
Jou's expectations are fairly reasonable for what seems to be a drifting supply box floating in the ocean. Joe's imagination runs away with him.
Gomamon: That crate is gonna hit us! Joe: Maybe it's full of fruit, vegetables, bread, milk, cereal, hot dogs, cookies, candy, and soda! Gomamon: I wish. Joe: (shakes Gomamon) YOU WISH!? WE WOULDN'T NEED MORE FOOD IF YOU HADN'T EATEN OURS!!! Gomamon: You're strong when you're hungry. Joe: Starvation is a good motivator! Looks like we'll need a jackhammer to open this....
They don't use jackhammers to open crates, Joe. The word you're looking for is crowbar. "You're strong when you're hungry" as a response to Joe's third shaking got me, though. That was good. XD
Good news for Jou is that the box is self-opening!
Tumblr media
And it has a toy surprise inside!
(I desperately want to be a fly on that wall when Ogremon was making this plan. I don't know what's more ridiculous: That he sealed himself in a box and trusted the currents to carry him to Jou, or that this worked.)
With Jou isolated and defenseless, Ogremon swings at him with his club, throwing a set of horizontal strikes. Jou and Gomamon jump, avoiding some swings of his club while bouncing the bed in the ocean and carrying them under others.
Frustrated, Ogremon opts for a vertical swing instead, cracking the bed in half.
Tumblr media
Fortunately, the halves remain buoyant for Jou and Gomamon who are split between them.
Gomamon conjures up his Marching Fishes, erupting from the ocean and throwing themselves at Ogremon. As his colorful fishes harass Ogremon with their tiny tackles, he explains his plan to Jou.
Jou: The wicked Digimon Ogremon is being defeated by the likes of fish! Gomamon: Ogremon grew up in the Great Canyon mountains, so he should be weak against the smell of raw sea fish! Ogremon: HAOUKEN!!! (pulverizes the attacking fish with bursts of dark purple energy) Gomamon: ...or so I thought, but I guess not.
It was a good plan, Gomamon. I'm sorry you were defeated by Power Levels.
Dub Gomamon gets philosophical with this.
Joe: What powerful force could cause this evil Digimon to be driven back and outmuscled by a bunch of small fish!? Gomamon: When the small and meek join forces to fight for a good purpose, they can often bring about the downfall of the big and powerful. Ogremon: Rargh! Get off me! (pulverizes the attacking fish with bursts of dark purple energy) Gomamon: Then again, sometimes they haven't got a chance!
Sorry, Gomamon, but today is not the day for seizing the means of production. But some day! VIVE LA REVOLUCION!
Honestly, I like both of these versions. Both Tactical Gomamon and Philosophical Gomamon have their merits.
It's not enough, though. With his back against the wall, Gomamon vindicates the dub's earlier point about needing his strength to evolve, and turns into Ikkakumon. Pushing through Ogremon's rapid-fire Haoukens, Ikkakumon headbutts him backwards, then nails him with a point-blank Harpoon Vulcan, knocking him back into the box.
Then he takes his kid and swims away, leaving Ogremon adrift in the ocean.
Tumblr media
Ogremon: Damn it! I can't follow because I can't swim!
Oh wow, this was a terrible plan. Have fun rowing back to shore, Ogremon. In the notoriously unpredictable waters of the goddamn ocean. Hope you know how to navigate by the stars.
Dub Ogremon also refuses to get out of the box, but doesn't state his reasoning.
Ogremon: COWARDS!!! Go ahead and run! See how far you'll get! 'Fraidy cats! Come back and fight! I dare ya! Come on!
But the implication is nonetheless there, as we still get to see his visceral panic reaction upon realizing he's about to step out into the waters.
As they swim away from Ogremon, Jou curses the fate that's befallen him one more time.
Jou: I knew it was a bad idea to come to camp....
While Joe curses his fate in a different way.
Joe: Oh man. I don't like adventure. I'm a 'stay at home and read' kind of guy.
Unfortunately, the fight with Ogremon took a lot out of Ikkakumon. Before long, he loses his evolution and turns back into Gomamon, helplessly plunging both him and Jou into the ocean.
(RIP Senpai. I can't say I'm surprised that you're the first to die but I can be sad for you all the same.)
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, on a nearby island shard, Piyomon returns to Sora, hopping over to her. She finds Sora taking a much more proactive approach to the Starving Digimon problem than any of the kids have thus far.
(And yet Koushiro gets the reputation as the smart one.)
Unfortunately, she has to make do with what she has on-hand.
Piyomon: Fishing? Sora: I thought I should try to get some food. Piyomon: You're so smart! I'm starving.... Sora: The bait is just a twig, though. It'd be great if some fish out there thought it was a worm... (glancing back at the island) How'd things look in there? Piyomon: I can't see anything because of the fog. I think this might be an island.... (Suddenly, Sora's twig bobber goes underwater) Piyomon: AHH! You caught something! Sora: (struggling with the rod, excited) There is a big fish stupid enough to fall for the twig!
SUCCESS!!! Piyomon braces Sora and helps her pull, struggling to bring in their unbelievably heavy catch! But, to their surprise but not the audience's, their big stupid fish is Jou-senpai.
Meanwhile, in the dub, Biyomon already knew Sora was fishing.
Biyomon: Catch anything? Sora: Not yet. Give me time; I'm hoping to catch something big. Biyomon: I've even be happy if you caught me a little sardine. Sora: Please, I know how hungry you can get. If I caught a huge 'any kind of fish', you'd be right there eating it with me, right? Biyomon: Well, since you put it that way.... Do you really think you can make a big catch? (Suddenly, Sora's twig bobber goes underwater) Biyomon: Oh, look! Maybe there's one now! Sora: Oh boy, it feels like a whale! This is a whopper for sure!
Like Jou's argument with Gomamon, this is a worse scene all around. We lose the brief exposition that Piyomon's been off trying to scout the island, and they removed the funny joke about Jou being a stupid fish in a localization that's actively trying to make things more light-hearted and funny.
Tumblr media
While Jou recovers by the fire, Gomamon explains what happened. He woke up underwater, spotted Jou, and tried to carry him to surface. Then he saw Sora's twig bait and hook nearby. He grabbed it, wrapped it around Jou, and let Sora pull them both to surface.
Jou survived his plunge in the murky waters, but Gomamon has other concerns now.
Gomamon: Can I ask for a favor? Piyomon: What is it? Gomamon: It's about Jou. Sora: Is there something wrong with him? Gomamon: He's becoming more timid by the moment. Sora: Well, he never had a strong heart to begin with. Gomamon: We don't know what's going to happen from here on. If he stays like this, we can't have a proper adventure! Piyomon: So what should we do? Gomamon: Let's make him our leader so he can gain confidence.
Gomamon's concerns for Jou are valid, but we also see a bit of Gomamon's flaws creep up when he talks about wanting to have a "proper adventure". This is one of the traits that causes his personality to grate against Jou's; Gomamon's an impulsive thrill-seeker.
Dub Gomamon broaches this subject differently.
Gomamon: I'm worried about Joe. Biyomon: You are? Sora: Joe's going to be just fine, Gomamon. Gomamon: Well, yes. Physically. But I'm worried about his confidence. Fighting Ogremon back there really knocked him out. He needs to rebuild his self-confidence. Biyomon: How can we help him? Gomamon: Very simple: We just make him our leader.
The dub cuts Sora's observation that Jou's always had a weak stomach. That's something we saw for ourselves back in the Unimon episode, when he had his first pressure-induced meltdown. (Over eggs!) Instead, Dub Gomamon blames Ogremon's ambush for Joe being like this.
Which. Uh. Is a choice, to be sure.
"Let's make him our leader" also kinda comes out of nowhere without the context that Jou is the oldest and meant to be responsible for us to begin with. Gomamon's asking Sora to step back and let Jou-senpai take charge like he's been trying to do since episode 1.
Tumblr media
Once Jou wakes up, the others put the plan in motion. Jou is initially reluctant once the topic is broached with him.
Jou: Where's everyone else? Sora: We don't know. We just got here ourselves. That's why you should be our leader, Jou-senpai! Gomamon: Agreed! Piyomon: Agreed! Jou: W-W-Wait a minute! Sora: You're the only one who can do it! Gomamon & Piyomon: Right, right! (Jou considers their words. Slowly, the trepidation on his face transforms into determination, and he stands up.) Jou: Fine then! I'll be the leader! (In the distance, a bell rings suddenly) Jou: Huh? ...is that bell ringing to celebrate me being the leader? Sora: Seems unlikely. Piyomon: (gasp) The fog is lifting! (Everyone turns and watches the fog fade away, revealing a church at the top of a hill)
Over in the dub, Joe wakes up rambling about Ogremon, following through on Gomamon's statement that the ambush messed him up.
Joe: Where's Ogremon!? Biyomon: He's gone. Sora: But we've got a bigger problem. We can't find the others. What should we do? We're stuck on this deserted island with no leader so I guess you're going to have to lead us, Joe! Gomamon: I'm for him! Biyomon: And me! Joe: Not me! I am not a leader! Sora: You have to! You're the strongest one here! Biyomon: Not to mention the bravest! Gomamon: Come on, Joe! Remember how you fought the Unimon? (Joe considers their words. Slowly, the trepidation on his face transforms into determination, and he stands up.) Joe: I am brave! You're right! I am the bravest one here! Sora: Well, let's not get too carried away. Joe: Oh. But if I fail, who will save save you or me? Sora: My fish line? (In the distance, a bell rings suddenly. Everyone turns and watches the fog fade away, revealing a church at the top of a hill)
This exchange has some good bits in it. I like Sora playing up their crisis with "We're stranded on a deserted island, help us!" That bit would go great with original Jou's particular anxieties. I also like Gomamon bringing up Unimon, though in the dub he says "the Unimon" for some reason. Might be a line flub.
What i don't like is that, again, they cut out a funny joke in this lighter and goofier rendition. "Do you think the bell's ringing to celebrate me being the leader?" is a great bit. They actually moved the ringing of the bell to get it out of the way for Sora's less funny "My fish line will save us?" bit.
Localizers, why are you removing jokes? Someone didn't understand the assignment.
Tumblr media
The ringing of the bell seems to becoming from that church. Where do we go from here, Jou-senpai? Of course, anyone who's been paying attention to Jou knows exactly where his mind's about to go.
Gomamon: It's a church! Jou: There might be humans there this time! Sora: (skeptically) ...you think so? Piyomon: LET'S FIND OUT!!! (starts to fly towards the church) Sora: Wait! Jou is our leader! (turns to Jou) Leader! What do we do? Jou: Huh!? Um uh you see.... (looking absolutely terrified) E-EVERYONE, LET'S GO!!!
For once, Jou's interest in finding humans makes its way into the dub, but only in passing.
Biyomon: What do you suppose it is? Sora: Looks kinda like a church. Joe: Wherever there's a church, there's usually people! Maybe even our friends! Sora: Someone should check it out. Biyomon: I'll go! (starts to fly towards the church) Sora: Wait, Biyomon! Joe's our leader now! (turns to Joe) Well? Lead us! Joe: W-What if we see a bad Digimon? I, uh.... (looking absolutely terrified) I need a moment! ...okay!
From there, they begin their march up the hill. Jou mercifully lets them climb in silence while Joe insists on chanting an army marching cadence. Poor Dub Sora.
At the top, they take in their surroundings and get an understanding of their shard.
Tumblr media
Jou: Just like we thought, this place really was a part of File Island before it broke up.
A fairly simple assessment that the dub makes much more complicated, filling dialogue into the scenes of the kids looking around.
Joe: Notice anything? Sora: It all looks sorta familiar to me. As if this were a place I've dreamed about or deja vu. You know, like we've been here before. Joe: You're right. This definitely looks like the part of the island that broke away.
So, in the dub, Sora and Joe are pretty sure they've been to this part of File Island before, even though they have not. Further, I had to listen to this several times to make sure I was hearing it correctly: Joe says "the part of the island that broke away" as if there were only one. I'm hoping that's also a line flub.
Lot of inappropriate the's going around the dub today.
From there, Jou gets into it once more.
Tumblr media
Jou: Okay! Now we can finally find humans besides us at that church! Sora: Do you still believe that? Jou: YES! They must be there this time! Sora: But you don't have any proof.... Jou: I AM THE LEADER!!! Sora: Yes, but-- Jou: LET'S GO!!! (races off)
Of note: Every time they say "leader", they're using the English word as a loanword. When Jou comically cuts off the argument with "LET'S GO!!!" and bolts, that's English too.
Again, Joe actually brings up Jou's hangup on finding other people, but in passing once again.
Joe: So, we should find everyone else or at least some other people taking shelter in that church! Sora: You're assuming quite a bit there. Joe: FINE! That's my opinion. Sora: I'm just giving you another view.... Joe: I'M THE LEADER HERE!!! Sora: Okay! Excuse me. Joe: LET'S MOVE OUT!!! (races off)
Without Jou's long history of "I bet there's humans!" followed swiftly by disappointment, it's trickier for the dub to make this brief squabble work. They made more work for themselves by carving out that part of Jou's character earlier.
This isn't a mistake or bad choice on the part of the dub but rather an unfortunate reality of the changing language: Sadly, "LET'S MOVE OUT!!!" doesn't hit as comically as Jou interrupting Sora by screaming "LET'S GO!!!" in English and running off.
As they watch Jou run towards the church, the others hang back to discuss his behavior.
Sora: Why is he getting so worked up? Gomamon: (proudly) He's turning into a leader! Sora: (laughs) Hahaha what.
Dub Gomamon's not so impressed with Joe.
Sora: We've created a monster. Gomamon: Hey, do you think a Black Gear got him? Sora: (laughs) Hahaha Gomamon!
There we go, lighter and goofier dub. That one got me. XD Though the original's good too. Sora refusing to even dignify Gomamon's remark with a response; Instead, she just barks out "Sou ka!" while laughing in his face.
Tumblr media
As they approach the church, the team spurs Jou to action.
Piyomon: What's that? Sora: Go take a look, Leader! Jou: HUUUH!? Piyomon: Go look! Sora: LEADER!!! Jou: ... Gomamon: Want me to go? Jou: There's no need for you to do that! I'm the leader, so I'll go! (storms off)
As Jou marches off to investigate the church, the trio exchange self-pleased grins. Meanwhile, in the dub:
Biyomon: Who's going in? Sora: What are you waiting for!? Joe: Uhhh huhhhhhh... Biyomon: What's wrong? Sora: Well, boss? Joe: ... Gomamon: Joe, you're the leader! (annoyed) Do you want me to take a peek? Joe: No, I don't want you taking a peek! I can't wait to go in there! (storms off) Gomamon: I think it worked.
Lateral difference here; They're mostly the same, but I do like how the Japanese version manages to do more with fewer words. At one point, Sora's literally just chanting the English word "LEADER!!!" at Jou.
Making his way inside, Jou finds a most unexpected sight.
Tumblr media
Man, I sure am glad nobody spoiled the intrigue and suspense of this moment by calling it the Bakemon Holiday right at the start of the episode! No, I kid; That was probably necessary in order to preserve the tension to come.
Creeping around the church, Jou discovers a group of humans in human-faced masks dancing together. He races frantically back to the others and delivers the news: There's people in the church.
Jou: There really are humans here! Lots of them!
Joe delivers the same news but he's judgmental about it.
Joe: There are people in the church! Dancing! Badly, I might add.
Rude. XD
Jou brings the others back to his peeping spot to see what he found.
Tumblr media
As the group observes the dancing people, they don't notice a man in a mask coming up behind them.
Jou: Why are they dancing? Sora: Is it a festival? Masked Man: This is a carnival where we give offerings to Bakemon-sama.
Horror scare chords play as he speaks, and the kids scream in panic. To be expected; He said they give offerings to "Bakemon-sama", which is sure to set off alarm bells in any Japanese person's head.
Bakemon is named for the word "bakemono". It's an umbrella category of shapeshifting yokai known for taking on the form of a variety of things, including impersonating humans. To my understanding, it's also a general term for "spooker" in common parlance.
Either way, "Bakemon-sama" is a red flag to be sure. He might as well have said, "Here, we give offerings to Lord Slender Man." This is probably why the episode had to spoil the "Bakemon Festival" earlier, so American kids could have their skin crawl too.
In the dub, we get this exchange.
Sora: There are people. They're dancing and they're wearing masks like it's Halloween. Masked Man: Hallow-what?
Bit of a weak line, but it still works within the context of the scene. When the kids scream and panic, it's in reaction to the man's presence moreso than what he said.
Tumblr media
The masked man brings the kids inside the church, where six other masked people are gathered around an altar. As they enter, Gomamon has something bothering him.
Gomamon: I'd like to ask something. Masked Man: ...go on. Gomamon: You mentioned a Bakemon-sama. Masked Man: Yes. Gomamon: The Bakemon I know is a ghost Digimon who lives in the Overdell Graveyard. I don't think he's worthy of being given offerings and having '-sama' added to his name. Piyomon: Me neither. Masked Man: (leans in close to the Digimon) God does not forgive those who speak rudely of Bakemon-sama! Gomamon: Sorry! Piyomon: Sorry! Sora: Where's your offering? I don't see it anywhere. Masked Man: It's here. Jou: Huh? Where? Masked Man: Our offering to Bakemon-sama is YOU!!!
Over in the dub, the Masked Man is much more verbose as he brings the kids into the church.
Masked Man: They're celebrating the Bakemon Holiday. Joe: It reminds me of Halloween! Masked Man: We'd love to have you join us. We don't have a lot of young people around, and no holiday is complete without them! You arrived just in time for some... fun.... Joe: Like trick-or-treat? You do that for Bakemon? Masked Man: Yes. Gomamon: Wait, Bakemon? As in Lord Bakemon? Masked Man: Yes? Gomamon: But the only Bakemon I know of is a horrible Digimon who lives among ghosts as their ruler. Why would you honor and celebrate someone like that? In the words of our friends, he's like a loser! Biyomon: You got that right! Masked Man: (leans in close to the Digimon) Don't you dare come in here telling us who to honor or not! Gomamon: Now, now! Biyomon: Back off! Sora: You're a little touchy. We just wanna know when the trick-or-treating starts. Masked Man: You're not afraid? Whole Kid Group: Nuh-uh! Masked Man: Well, you should be. Because it's a TRICK!!! AND YOU'RE THE TREAT!!!
They really play that Halloween thing for all its worth. That's fair; "It's a trick and you're the treat" is a payoff that goes hard. Credit where it's due, that is fantastic wordplay for a guy hearing about trick-or-treat for the first time in this conversation. Mad improv skills.
Though they're forced to stretch for the Bakemon-sama bit. Gomamon himself has to ID him as "Lord Bakemon" so he can then go off on how inappropriate the honorific is. Probably should have let the Masked Man refer to "Lord Bakemon" for that; It's awkward as is.
The man's mask cracks in front of the kids' eyes. Then it breaks and the bakemono reveals its true form.
Tumblr media
Specifically, Bakemon himself, an Adult-stage Virus-type Ghost Digimon.
Narrator: Bakemon. A ghost Digimon that wears a white sheet. No one knows what its true form looks like underneath.
Gomamon handles the rundown for the dub.
Gomamon: The Masked Man was the evil Digimon Lord Bakemon in disguise! No one had ever seen him in his true form!
Once again, the original manages to be funnier than the dub. Bakemon is an actual ghost doing the "spooky white sheet to look like a ghost" bit. XD This is such a goofy episode.
The other worshippers turn towards the kids, shedding their human guises and revealing themselves to be Bakemon as well. In the dub, they shout "Trick!" "Or!" "Treat!" as they do, committing to the bit.
The kids panic and flee outside, only to find themselves in Overdell Graveyard. The dancing humans were also Bakemon this whole time.
Then, at last, the church itself changes, revealing it to be decayed and decrepit.
Tumblr media
No option left but to fight. Piyomon lets off a Magical Fire to scatter the Bakemon while Gomamon tries to evolve; However, he used up what strength he had earlier, so no dice.
Gomamon: I can't evolve now because I used it up earlier!
The dub uses this to pay off the food argument from the start of the episode.
Gomamon: I need food! You were right, I should have saved some earlier.
If he'd saved it earlier, Ogremon probably would have killed them both. But they're trying to give this episode some semblance of a story arc after erasing the key points of it.
Piyomon tries to evolve as well, but she's too hungry. Defenseless and surrounded by Bakemon, the kids are completely outmatched. The Bakemon swarm and overwhelm them easily.
"Ow! No! I'm allergic! I'm allergic to pain!" ~Dub Joe, relieving the tension with a pretty good gag. XD
Tumblr media
Gomamon and Piyomon are thrown in a dungeon cell. The Bakemon tie up Jou and Sora on their altar, gathering around it and beginning their ritual. They aren't saying anything in specific in the original, but in the dub they chant, "It's a trick! You're the treat!"
Jou: Are we going to be offered to Bakemon-sama? Sora: Looks like. Jou: (bawling) I knew I should have stayed at home studying instead of coming to camp! (A pair of Bakemon approach with salt and pepper shakers. They season the kids, causing Jou to sneeze.) Sora: I-I think you should go light on the salt, don't you? Bakemon: You're right. They say eating too many salty things is bad for your health. Jou: I knew it! Bakemon-sama is planning to eat us! Sora: Just who is this Bakemon-sama!?!?
Glad to see Sora looking out for Bakemon-sama's health. His worshippers were about to give him high blood pressure. XD
Over in the dub, Joe's still trying to take charge and be the leader.
Joe: Okay, don't panic. I'm still in control and feeling strong. Sora: Okay. Joe: (bawling) I don't wanna be somebody's appetizer! I'm supposed to go to Med School! (A pair of Bakemon approach with salt and pepper shakers. They season the kids, causing Joe to sneeze.) Sora: Salt and pepper? You're not really going to eat us, are you? Bakemon: You're a little on the scrawny side, but you'd be surprised what the right seasonings can do! Joe: You think we can finagle him into dining on someone a bit bigger? Sora: What kind of fiend is this guy!? We're just kids!
Here, the dub finally nails the "Why did I go to camp" bit with Joe's exclamation about Med School. Additionally, Joe trying to weasel out of this by convincing Bakemon to eat someone else is fun. Meanwhile, the original has the funny salt exchange. So both versions of this scene are pretty good.
Tumblr media
Down in their cells, Gomamon and Piyomon plot what to do. They need to escape somehow but they're starving.
Gomamon: The walls are too thick to break down. Piyomon: We have to get out somehow. Bakemon: (snores) Gomamon: Let's trick that Bakemon into getting us out. He looks stupid enough. Piyomon: What makes you think he's gullible? Gomamon: Digimon who sleep with a mucus bubble coming out of their noses are easy to fool. Piyomon: Is it really a good idea to judge based on that? Gomamon: Yep! Piyomon: So how do we do it?
It's true. Sleeping with a snot bubble while on guard duty is a universal indicator of being a hapless rube.
Over in the dub, the roles are reversed.
Biyomon: There must be a way out of here. Gomamon: Maybe we've been looking in all the wrong places. Biyomon: There's not much room to look in this place. Bakemon: (snores) Biyomon: Hey! We may be able to trick the guard and escape? Gomamon: We may be able to trick him? I think that's a given; He doesn't look too smart. Biyomon: Right. So first we have to try and wake him up. Gomamon: And how are we gonna do that? Look at him. For a ghost, he sleeps like a log! Biyomon: We just have to get his attention or we'll never escape! But I'm all out of ideas! Gomamon: I think I have just the thing.
Again with carving the funny bits. Why did you remove the mucus bubble call-out?
To get Bakemon's attention, Gomamon picks up a rock and pops his mucus bubble with it, waking him up. Then we get the most amazing exchange in the entire episode.
Gomamon: Bakemon! Bakemon: Are you talking to me? Gomamon: I am. Bakemon: What do you want? Gomamon: Try to torture us. Bakemon: What. Piyomon: We want to be tortured! Bakemon: You two are weird Digimon. Gomamon: We're hungry. You should eat something in front of us to torture us. Bakemon: Huh!? Gomamon: Could it be that this graveyard is so poor, you don't even have any food? Bakemon: What!? No! We have tons of food! Piyomon: Then torture us with it! Bakemon: Okay....
This poor Virus is so baffled right now, it's amazing. XD
Obviously, the dub was never going to let these characters start shrieking, "Torture me, Virus-sama!" No way in hell that makes it to broadcast on FOX Kids. But they still try their best to make this scene their own.
Bakemon: Hey! What's the idea!? Gomamon: So, when do you start? Bakemon: Start what? Gomamon: Start taunting us, you floating bag of wind! Bakemon: Wha--? Biyomon: You give bad Digimon a bad name! Bakemon: But I haven't learned how to taunt anyone yet.... Biyomon: It's easy! You just find out what we want, then don't let us have it. Bakemon: Huh? Gomamon: Here's how you taunt. We're starving and want to eat. So you show us food but don't give it to us, got it? Bakemon: I think I gotcha! You know, I've got a bunch of bananas.... Biyomon: Then taunt us with them! Come on! Bakemon: Okay!
This is pretty clever. Playing off their Bakemon being dim-witted, Gomamon and Biyomon trick him into letting them teach him how to be cruel. It's not nearly as funny, but it captures the spirit of Torture Me, Senpai in a way that would be acceptable to American censors.
Tumblr media
Bakemon goes and retrieves a bunch of purple bananas. Real bananas, not like those imposter bananas Mimi found. He tries simply peeling one and eating it, but they explain that they can't see. They're too hungry to see or smell the bananas; He needs to come closer.
Once he's close enough to the bars, Gomamon and Piyomon grab him, yanking him forward and knocking him out. With bananas in hand, Gomamon and Piyomon satiate their hunger.
Up in the church, the Bakemon prepare their ritual.
Jou: My soul tastes awful! Sora: What? Are you saying mine tastes better!? Jou: Yes! It probably tastes better than mine! Sora: JOU-SENPAI!!! And you call yourself a leader!?
Jou is now actively trying to throw Sora under the bus to save himself. That's not very senpai of you, Jou.
The dub edits this to remove Jou's supreme moment of cowardice.
Joe: You don't want to eat me; I'm mostly gristle anyway. Sora: What's that supposed to mean? Are you saying they should eat me first!? Joe: Oh, can't you see it's curtains for both of us!? Sora: Oh, go have your pity party somewhere else!
A much softer interpretation that cuts out Jou explicitly saying they should eat Sora instead of him.
The Bakemon perform the ritual, swirling together above the kids to merge together into a single huge Bakemon. With visible claws.
Tumblr media
The process of merging into Bakemon-sama is silent in the original, but the dub has the lesser Bakemon perform a chant.
Bakemon: We're scary ghosts! / We like to boo! / Now it's time / to boo on you!
Once formed, Bakemon-sama descends upon the children, preparing to devour them. However, right at that moment, something bursts up through the floor behind the altar.
Tumblr media
Don't know about you but I wouldn't want to be under that sheet right now.
Sora and Jou come untied... somehow, it's not super clear which titanic Digimon carefully snipped their ropes. They race out into the graveyard to take cover behind graves while the explosive battle takes place.
Tumblr media
Bakemon uses his signature Hell's Hand to deflect Ikkakumon's Harpoon Vulcan and Birdramon's Meteor Wing. We're throwing everything we have at him, but he's taking it all.
Suddenly, Jou has a revelation.
Tumblr media
Sora: Bakemon-sama is much stronger than I thought! Jou: Well, he's a ghost! (lightbulb) To fight against ghosts, you need to chant a sutra praying for God's good grace! Sora: Chant what!? Jou: By chanting the sutra, Bakemon-sama's power will weaken! Sora: Can you do that? Jou: Yes! Sora: Do you know any sutras? Jou: My rural grandmother taught me one so I could pray to do better on my exams. Sora: ...will that work against Bakemon-sama? Jou: It's a sutra. It has to work! Sora: What's with this sudden confidence? You're scaring me!
For fuck's sake. You can feel the localizers crying with every scene of this episode. Okay. Now we have to scrub the religious references from Jou praying to God for holy power to weaken Bakemon.
Hahaha. Ahahahaha. Ahahahahahaha. Okay, Joe. Let's see what you've got.
They start by chopping up the footage. The shot for Sora's first line is cut and Joe's first line is trimmed down. They reframe his lightbulb realization as him watching the fight and exclaiming, "WHOA!" and only use that shot for the duration of the reaction.
To fill back in the runtime for the shots they cut, they replay Bakemon parrying Harpoon Torpedo and Meteor Wing. But they put a commercial break between the original attacks and the replays so it's not as noticeable.
This way, Joe is confident and self-assured right from the get-go. We don't see his transformation from terrified to suddenly realizing he knows what to do. He's just got this on lock.
Sora: Lord Bakemon is tough! Joe: His power comes from evil. But I know that good can beat him in time. Sora: Ohh, what if it's too late!? Joe: It's never too late to fight evil! But we have to weaken Lord Bakemon to help our friends prevail! Sora: We!? You're the leader, not me! Joe: Don't be a quitter! Sora: So what makes you think that we can beat him? Joe: I once saw a show about this Roman physicist. He believed that repeating a phrase helped you focus mind over matter. Sora: Let's focus on running! Joe: No. We focus on making Bakemon lose his power! Sora: ...okay, you're in charge. Start focusing.
Wow, it's funny that the dub cut the line about eating Sora instead because they nonetheless threw her on the fire to make Joe look good here. She goes from being uncertain about Jou's plan and probing for details to full-on cowardly so that Joe can encourage her.
Tumblr media
Using Sora's hat as a ritual drum, Jou performs his sutra to weaken Bakemon-sama. Meanwhile, Joe performs his definitely not a prayer mind-over-matter affirmation, intoning "Bakemon lose your power" again and again. They can't say he needs a ritual drum, so Sora instead simply suggests that we "use [her] lucky hat".
The sutra works, gradually diminishing Bakemon in size and power. Once he's weakend, Jou leaps up and gives the order to open fire on him.
Tumblr media
Birdramon and Ikkakumon's shots hit home, causing Bakemon to explode in a shower of fabric confetti.
Sora: I have no idea what just happened but that was so cool!
I guess this makes up for trying to get Bakemon to eat Sora instead of him earlier.
Once again, the dub cuts out this great line and replaces it with something much more generic.
Sora: Way to go, guys! You got Bakemon!
Why. Why do you keep removing the funny.
Bakemon's... defeat? Death? Unclear. Whatever happened to Bakemon ruptures a seam in the ground, revealing the Black Gears.
Tumblr media
We don't even need to touch them. They stop moving suddenly, then fall apart. Rather than going into reverse, they break entirely. So this shard's not going back to Infinity Mountain like the previous two are.
That's okay, though. We have transportation.
Tumblr media
Reasoning that the rest of the group will be over there, Jou and Sora leave their shard behind and set sail for Infinity Mountain. We close on the pair riding off to an uncertain fate.
Assessment: In contrast to the previous two episodes, this one doesn't give Sora much of a character study. It's Jou's episode from start to finish. Sora agrees to Gomamon's plan, following Jou around to puff up his confidence. She questions and scrutinizes him repeatedly but remains firmly in that area.
They squabble repeatedly, but it never feels like it's pitting them against one another, the way the previous episodes did for Taichi & Yamato and for Mimi & Koushiro. Instead, the focus is on pushing Jou to his lowest, then raising him to his highest.
By the end of the episode, he feels like he's genuinely become the reliable upperclassmen that he's been trying to be. His plan against Bakemon relies on not just leadership, but drawing from knowledge that Sora hasn't yet had a chance to learn.
At the same time, this is the funniest episode the show's had thus far. Overflowing with absurdity.
On the other hand, the previous episode with Mimi and Koushiro was the best dubbed episode we've had yet. This one was the worst. They carved out so much and only sometimes had something as good to replace it with. A lot of it they had to carve out but there's also plenty that they didn't. Multiple places where they made a choice to be less funny or less interesting.

heeeey sorry its been a hot minute, life has been generous with big events that which i was subjected to experience. some were good, some were not as good, but most of them are done now so here i am, hopefully with enough freetime to be active, silly, and actively silly on here yippeee
anywaysss so around this time of year, my brain never fails to re-re-re-reenter its monster high kick, so here i am with some re-redesigns of the ghouls that i did about exactly a year ago give or take. expect a couple more these upcoming days; i may not have had enough time to do these "final product" type of products but i sure did some sketching
but yeah, to start off i did ofc the main three: frankie, draculaura, and clawdeen. of the three when compared to their past version, i think i like frankies new design the best and also feel it improved the most. draculauras did not change too much, and depending on feels, i might change her a bit in the future, but for now this is she yes yes. oh, and i think clawdeen turned out pretty chill, though i may revisit the colors. also ignore the fact that i still dont know how to draw shoes and feet hahahahahahaha
okay but its about two in the morning as i am typing this soooo ill be off then until i shall see yall again. goodbye party people <33

Ghostly hands appeared out of nowhere in front of DIMA, they made him a little cautious. Some were wriggling their fingers, while two others were just hovering menacingly that is until a couple attacked him with tickles on his sides.
'Hahahahahaha wha- what are youhohoho doing?!' he says whilst laughter started to spill from him. Two others joined in, one was gently playing with a cord that was snaking from his chest to behind his back and the other was wriggling its fingers on his belly plating, this causes DIMA to throw his head back in loud deep laughter. 'HAHAHAHAHAHAHA NOHOHOHO THAHAHAHAT TICKLES'.
Two more hands appeared to pin his arms above his head so there was nowhere to run the only thing he could really do was wriggle in their grasp, DIMA did not mind this in the slightest he had to admit to himself it felt good to laugh like this. He hadn't done so in a hell of a long time, especially after he got thrown out of the institute alongside Nick Valentine..... His brother .
After a while they stopped their attack for a little bit 'aww are you done, I was thinking maybe 10 more minutes' DIMA expressed a bit disappointed, one of the hands waved as if response to him then pointed to his chair.
DIMA'S eyes widened 'Oh oh you want to tickle me on the chair, is that it?'
OKAY....so this was a fun one to write.
Let me know if you want the next one. 🥰
