Absolutely agree he should have an outfit change every episode in fact he should have multiple

New attire for every scene he's in lmao💀 I mean, it's not like he has a ton of screen time or the guy's too hard to animate, in theory, this could work.. No, but it could've been such a fun running visual gag that would make Prime more memorable! Let my man be flashy and extravagant and show off his status! Let him divide himself futher from his clones who have to wear the same sad uniform everyday while he has a costume change 3 times a day! Let him wear the jewelry that belonged to the kings and emperors he defeated! Let him brag about rare fabrics he gathered from the old no longer existing worlds! Let his outfits each tell a story w/o Prime even opening his mouth!

It could also be used to explore his character even futher w/o any additional scenes. For example, what if he puts so much effort into his appearance because its the only thing that makes his eternal existence not as boring or stale? Or imagine him having a special outfit for every "guest" on his ship, trying to appeal to each of the heroes or instead contrast them, using his looks as a warning or to make a statement. Either way, having various costumes for each of his "roles" - role of a welcoming host or a fearsome ruler, a spiritual leader or the old enemy of the First Ones, an enchanting alien anyone would want to follow, an understanding wise man who knows what's best for the universe etc. He wants to be adored and feared, to be the most remarkable, the most seen, the only one who truly matters. So why not futher emphasise his own importance and exceptional nature with exceptional attiers?

Or like, this detail could add on to the themes of change and finding oneself and hiding your true self behing a certain role or facade and all that. He changes suits and vessels, endlessly shading his skin, but none of those superficial changes can change what's really inside. None of those shiny beautiful garments can hide the rotten soul behind them. Or rather, hide the fact that there is no soul, no person at all

if i was hypothetically chipped this would be the look on his face as he reviewed memories of endless scrolling through fan art and shit of him

i just realized how meta this is

I just can’t stress enough how right you are on all Prime posts it’s like we share braincells or sm

Us

I s2g she ra animators made the villains cute on purpose like look at Catra and Hordak all throughout the show I swear if Shadow Weaver wasn’t in the mama majority of the show she’d be making stupid cute faces my conspiracy theory on why Peime has hardcore bat moments is they had to squeeze in the stupid Cute w only one season

I think it has to do more with the chosen cutsie artstyle and animation rather the intent. Though I agree, if SW didnt have her mask on at all times we'd definitely got a few iconic cute faces. Kinda shitty that she less wore the mask for the mystique and mainly to hide her scars (because of the whole deformed villain trope), but on the other hand that mask was her only saving grace that prevented her from becoming a bigger meme

Even within the season HP doesn't get a ton of screen time. Poor guy, he had to introduce himself and his empire, create an outside conflict, move the plot, throw in new bits of lore, serve cunt, traumatize half of the cast, be used for overs' character development, be an imposing final villain and get defeated in such a short amount of time😔🙏 And all that while trying to hide his natural bat whimzy

Ab your tag

Prime IS cute all the clones are

It’s so amusing to me he’s threatening yet still manages to be cute evil baby emperor man

Spacebats are freaking adorable and its crazy to think that they were never designed to be cute (S1 Hordak, whos design predetermined how the rest of his kind is gonna look like, certainly wasn't) They're such fascinating and whimsical creatures and probably because at first their species were not meant to be perceived as such their actual silliness and cuteness hit you twice as hard And then there's Prime who is never intentionally cute or goofy, unlike, say, Hordak or Wrongie. He's meant to be intimidating and unsettling at all times and yET As much as he tries to look majestic and threatening those big pointy ears and his whittle :} smile prevent me from treating him any seriously. He simply can't supress his bat nature
