tumblr doesn't seem like a selfie oriented place but if ya'll are gonna freak out about the cute irish girl there needs to be more than one photo of me up so
I do think one of the things that makes me like the Magi-Nation cartoon better than a lot of second world fantasy media is that after everything is said and done, Tony makes the choice to stay in the fantasy world full of monsters and magi with the friends he made instead of staying on Earth to live a normal human life.
And especially the fact that it's a *choice*. He's not stuck there in the Moonlands, he can go home at any point after everything. He wants to be in a world where he's a hero, saved the world, has a bunch of cool friends, has magic powers, and doesn't have to face the American? Canadian? school system.
Just there's so much second-world fiction where the protag has to go back to their original world or doesn't want to stay in the magical world even tho it's better than what they left. Or in the opposite direction with a lot of isekai stuff recently folks are just stuck in the magical world with no choice.
Shout out to the Magi-Nation cartoon. Props to you.
