My predictions for what the magnus archives 2 will be
1. An arg based on the fears being in our universe. If its this all of u need to ve good at posting updates cos i don't know shit about decoding
2. A tma show focused on a new archive or organization just fibding out about the fears ive seen people making ocs for things like the magnolia Institute abd that so maybe something like that
3. A prequel detailing the adventures of gertrude robinson and her archival assistant to be honest ill leap up and down if adelard dekker is even mentioned
4. The og tma story from another perspective maybe following a different organisation like section 31 or the pu songling research centre.
5. Jon and Martin in somwhere else
6. Basira Melanie and Georgie in the post apocalypse world
7. The regency era tma so reiner Fairchild magnus and smirke
That's all I have there are a few i think are more likely than others but yeah definitely add more ideas in the notes
I AM VERY EXCITED

It wasn’t supposed to be a secret.
If you died while with the league, you will no longer be acknowledged to have existed, especially if you died during a mission. A disappointment will not be remembered.
The bats and birds don’t like speaking about the people they have lost, so they don’t. If someone ask about the dead, they will tell the person they don’t talk about that.
So how was Damian supposed to know that he should have told his father about his dead brother?

plotholes in season 4 i really don't understand now i've digested the season please feel free to explain or add your own:
- sparrow academy and especially sloane just being forgotten, luther just seeming to magically get over his wife disappearing and not fighting in any way shape or form to find her or get back to a timeline with her in it
- especially as they show discovery of the phoenix academy you think five would mention that a timeline with sloane must exist out there
- ben being teased on the subway train at the end of season 3 but just??? never showing up??? was that an alternative timeline?
- allison doing everything last season motivated by the idea of being able to get to claire and ray only for ray to apparently leave her with zero elaboration as to why or what happened
- making fatphobic jokes towards diego but actually he takes his shirt off and is still ripped as fuck?
- upon regaining their powers luther getting his ape body back which??? literally had nothing to do with his marigold related powers it was because of an accident on a previous timeline?
- lila getting laser beam eye powers seemingly from nowhere, but it's not as if this was ever addressed because she could still mimic powers (see: her using five's time travel ability)
- very limited use of powers, there were a few cool moments in episode 2 but ultimately it felt like there was no need to even get them back as they rarely showcased them (with the exception of five's getting them stuck)
- klaus throwing his marigold onto a passing man but this never getting any exploration
- never explaining why jennifer was in a giant squid
- never explaining why jennifer got locked up in a safe
- ben apparently never discussing with klaus how he died???
- ben and jennifer not realising that the entire motel had blown up around them including murdering flocks of birds and staff when they checked out?
- entire five/lila plotline but also five figuring out how to leave and not saying anything when he has always been the first to want to get back and protect his family
- lila apparently hating bracelets despite the fact that diego making lila a bracelet and it keeping them linked was such a big plotpoint it was used as a teaser in previous seasons (and the bead bracelet just disappearing)
- lila being so intent on saving her family and the kids by sending them to the subway and on an alternative timeline but only one 'true' timeline can survive anyway which would erase the subway
- the kids existing when the parents that created them don't
- the entire show being for nothing in that the umbrellas do not even exist anymore

i was never as optimistic about the ending of bnha as some villain stans were, but i never thought it'd end so badly it left me wondering why horikoshi ever bothered to humanize the villains or make them complex characters at all.
like-- i expected that at least 1-2 of the 3 villains who were heavily foreshadowed and outlined by the narrative as people to be saved would be, you know, actually saved. i didn't think that was a high bar. i've been let down before in fandoms where everyone was certain a character would live and then they didn't, so i tried to keep my hopes low. AND YET.
what happened to tomura was upsetting, but i wasn't that shocked after how disinterested the manga has seemed to be in him for like, the past 100 or so chapters. a bit surprised, because you'd think if anyone would succeed in the 'saving' mission it would be the MC, but whatever. dabi, well, they've spent a lot of time showing the way his quirk destroys his body even before this arc, so that also sucked but at least it didn't feel completely out of left field.
........but they're not even letting toga live???
i just-- what have we even been doing here? when zero out of the 3 characters that were marked out for saving were actually saved, you have to acknowledge that something has gone seriously fucking wrong with the storytelling. not even just from the perspective of a villain fan but from the perspective of someone who likes stories to be thematically consistent or satisfying in any way.
you can set up an expectation of these characters being saved and then subvert that and turn it into a tragedy- if done well that could even be worthwhile and interesting. but you can't turn it into a tragedy and then just... keep trucking along with the happy ending messaging and act like anything in the manga has been resolved and that the characters have somehow successfully completed their heroic origin stories.
like, maybe i shouldn't have expected this much from a shounen- at the end of the day it is still a shounen so i didn't expect to feel that it truly satisfactorily wrapped up all the themes it brought up around societal ills. but i expected it to at least resolve those things in a shounen-y way where they punch the problems and help these specific people and then you can feel good assuming that the state of things will continue to improve in the post-canon world of the manga.
instead we got... uh, none of that. the story refused to answer a single one of the larger questions it's been outlining for the past 400+ chapters. in the end, it was all flash and no substance, which again could've been fine, if it weren't for the way the story seemed to spend significant chunks of time trying to delude you into thinking it had substance.
truly makes me wonder what horikoshi thought he was doing the entire time. can it really all be blamed on burnout? the most that can be said for this ending is that it is, well, an ending. fuck dude, it is that.
and that's just... such a sad way to end a project that took up 10 years of your life.
