I started reading Dungeon Meshi last week, became instantly charmed and captivated, and blitzed through the entire manga in 4 days (and changed my profile picture about it). With that in mind, I would just like to say...

I love your dungeon meshi art so so much

CHILCHUCK!!!!!!!!

Thank you kindly! I love Dungeon Meshi a lot, so I'm happy to see so many people get into it for the first time.

CHILCHUCK!!!

Btw in all the chat about Dot & Bubble and racism has anyone like. acknowledged that it's kinda weird that in the series featuring the first ever Doctor of colour we have seen uhhhhh:

3 specials in which the new Black doctor appears at the end of the last one for like 5 minutes after being replaced with a previous (white) Doctor for the big event episodes (a thing that has never happened before)

3 regular episodes

Episode in which the Doctor is mostly tangential to the plot except as a bomb

2 extremely Doctor-lite episodes, which are a common feature of Doctor Who but are pretty much never stacked back to back

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT. I like all these things:

Russell T Davies' work on Doctor Who

Ncuti Gatwa's fucking masterful acting

Doctor-lite and companion-centric episodes (which honestly are some of the best New Who episodes. Turn Left? Human Nature?)

but. it is notable that this series - which I would consider so far to be 9 episodes in which Ncuti Gatwa has had a reasonable cut of screentime in like... MAYBE 4? - is a) by far the least Doctor-focused episode ratio that I've ever seen, b) the only one where an actor's actual onscreen regeneration has been pushed back by the return of an old actor, and is c) COINCIDENTALLY the first ever season starring a Black Doctor 🤔

(because like. this could be a coincidence. there are often Doctor-light episodes to give the actor a break, for plot reasons, etc)

(buuuuut. two in a row? and they're both genuine Doctor-light episodes, ie one which is Turn Left style where the Doctor only appears to bookend the episode and is otherwise taken out of the universe, and one which is Blink or Love and Monsters style where the Doctor only appears in brief bursts, on screen, through the episode, with one monologue near the end, while we follow another character around for the bulk of the time. I can't think of many series of New Who with 2 Doctor-lite episodes, especially not in the first half of a season. In Davies' original run there were what, 4 Doctor-lite episodes in 5 years (and that's IF you count Fathers Day which I kinda don't)? and we've had half that many in one season, back to back, only 4 episodes after we DIDN'T SEE THE NEW ACTOR FOR ALMOST 3 FULL SPECIALS?)

(and I do know that Gatwa had shooting commitments with Sex Education but the thing is. back to back in the first 5 episodes???? it's not a good look! it's just not! you don't have to shoot in series order, you can literally space them across the series if you need to work with his shooting schedule! like I am sure it's not intentional but COME ON.)

am i the only one who thinks this season was really rushed? most of the time i wasn't able to feel and digest things because then other things were happening in a span of less than 5 minutes and then everything just...... ended? there were things that didn't have any depths, that was just made... idk.... in such a whatever way

they put anne and mary in there for one episode. then we see their relationship and that they're two psychos (affectionate) and then they vanish in the end. they put ned low in there, that appears out of NOWHERE, just to be in one episode and then kill him off. they kill izzy off and we don't even have the time to mourn, because next scene they've already buried him and now are making a wedding. i mean.

they tried putting a lot of new characters in there instead of focusing on the original ones and their developtment and it made the season feel so fucking rushed and idk man. idk.

Blocking people speaking shit about part 2 is actually really healing for me!!!!

And I fully blame the break for this reaction by the way. Too much time for people to create their own theories about what they wanted to happen which is always gonna result in people feeling disappointed. Should have never been split up!

SEASON NINE FINALE WAS WILD. I HAVE MANY MANY THOUGHTS. WHAT JUST HAPPENED. A FUCKING ROLLER COASTER FOR SURE

[notmoreflippingelves]

It's really a shame that I've only really seen Valentina shipped with Prince Alonso or (more occasionally) with Elena. Don't get me wrong, those are nice enough ships. But oh my god, I cannot be the only person who sees that the Shining Light of Paraiso™ goes perfectly in every possible ship I can think of.

There's a lot to be excited about for directive 8020

The fact that it's in the future, now that's probably not the actual year it's taking place in but the fact that it's set in the future is as big as hoa being set in 03' because it means a greater freedom and flexibility as to when these stories can take place over the previous standard of "past events" to "current year" and truth be told I really hope one of the dark pictures games will be a period piece because they put all this work into authentically portraying specific eras as best they can and it would be lovely to see a whole game set before living memory

More original world building, now I usually prefer entirely original settings and these games being grounded in the real world is somewhat of an exception for me but building off that can be interesting(that's why I didn't get into that bravo whatever game and that other one because it's set in the real world with made up countries and it doesn't fit to me), the possibility of adding to hoa aliens or other aliens, even if it's an all new species we're dealing with it should be very interesting to replay hoa with a greater knowledge of the settings space lore

The paranoid atmosphere of being caught between the void of space and close confined space when you can't trust others

And finally I'm glad they didn't show any faces because now I'm wondering both who the "main actor" and the other models will be, highkey I want to know who's family 100% makes it into the future

Any fun facts about kilowog? He is like an uncle to me

Kilowog is really fucking smart!! i feel like people tend to forget that bc he's pretty down to earth. He used to be a geneticist back on Bolovax Vik, before it exploded. Bolovax Vik was super populated and the Bolovaxians share a mind link, so Kilowog is a pretty social person. He's also super good with mechanics!! Kilowog hung around the JLI embassy for a bit and did some mechanics work. Him and Guy were pen pals back in the 80s, when Guy was with the JLI and Kilowog was at the GL hype house on earth. Kilowog and Guy are besties ^_^

I will always first and foremost be stupid bonkers crazy about detroit sports teams supporting each other and watching games and being Bonded by their love of the city and the determination to keep going despite everyone writing them off and walking over them etc etc
