the new killer is hot but wtf 🤨
In my newest essay I will address many many things that have to do with Ji-Woon, DBD’s new killer !
A lot of people don’t like this new killer, and I understand why. HOWEVER, I feel like most of the reasons people don’t like him are for reasons that literally shouldn’t determine anything about your opinion regarding him.
For example, I understand when people say that he is exactly like legion, at least the first release of legion. If you weren’t around let me sum it up.
Legion used to work like this:
You stab a survivor once, and you can stab them again and again while still in frenzy until the deep wound bar is empty and they go down. It was very broken if you carried duration addons. Deep Wound doesn’t work like this anymore, if the survivor is already deeply wounded, you could stab them 30 times in the frenzy and they still wouldn’t go down, that way you at least give them a chance to mend.
The Trickster works similarly. So I completely agree that the mechanic is unoriginal. But I don’t think that warrants the kinds of things people say about him. Other people also think his weapon is too flashy, and I have to agree. It feels like the projectiles idea was last second or rushed. It’s just sort of thrown into his story, and also they are just... too neon and kinda really ugly. But! I still like him! I think he has potential! I imagine it is also going to be similar to legion where they will definitely have to change a lot of things about Ji-Woon around until there is something that’s more polished.
To be honest I only have a couple complaints about him. my only gripes are that he has an actual voice that speaks words which no other hunter gets :( ,, in his running animation he leans too far forward, and it’s.. uncomfortable to look at....... if you were to run like that in real life you would actually fall on your face, last complaint is that his projectiles and the way they work is kinda.....ringing familiar bells. The legion bell! and that’s not good, But that’s really it.
I’m going to talk about the other kind of bullshit now. I’ll just put things I’ve heard and then why it’s stupid asf
“The weebs are drooling!1!1”
I lose years off of my life when I hear people say this. He is quite literally not Japanese so this is stupid to say. It makes me so mad when they say this shit it’s so annoying.
“They put anime in dbd!1!1!”“They put K-Pop in dbd!11!1”
Again! He is not Japanese. I also say people say this when Rin and Yui were first put in the game which... I’m glad i wasn’t around for that. Just because an Asian person is included doesn’t mean they are fucking anime. It’s literally just racism !
The K-Pop thing makes me mad as well. Don’t call him a BTS member??? PLEASE???? He hated K-pop, literally killed his group because it( as in, the other members’ shallow nature made them more likable to the audience than him which made him envious enough to leave them to burn in the fire) , and until his fame was declining, he strictly made literal anti-pop, outlandish songs that were dark in nature, and produced with the screams of his murder victims hidden in the music, HAS BTS DONE THAT SHIT????? I’m pretty sure it’s just people generalizing because they’re racist and think that any Korean person IS K-pop but? It doesn’t even make sense with his story. Ji-Woon is LITERALLY the opposite of K-Pop so please PLEASE :( STOP IT
*uses they/them pronouns for him even though he is only ever referred to with he/him*
I know exactly why they do this shit too, it’s because they think he’s not masculine enough to be a man!1!1!1 (he/him) but he doesn’t have boobies so they can’t say he’s a woman1!1!1 (she/her) so they fucking put him in the middle ! Bro ! He literally is only ever referred to with he/him . There is no reason to do this shit . Just say you don’t think he’s manly enough and go
“He looks like a survivor”/ “He looks like a normal dude, not a killer”
Well, yeah. Of course he’s going to look human, because he is still human. Every single killer WAS a person before meeting the entity. It’s why they vary in height and personality, they too were human(or still are depending on how you feel about that). I mean, some of the killers (not many) retained a humanistic form when entering the realm of the entity, for example, Huntress (marry me), Trapper, Legion, and Clown remained relatively human like. I don’t know if they pick their form, I doubt it, but if they did, OF COURSE THE SUPER SELF OBSESSED, VAIN, EGOTISTICAL IDOL WOULD FUCKING HAVE HIS IMAGE PRESERVED IN THE REALM!!!!!! I notice that when people say this, what they mean to say is that he looks out of place. Which is a whole tangent that I will not go on.
Saying that any one of the killers is out of place is really dumb. You have to keep in mind that the entity is simply gathering evil potential for its game, a cat to chase the mice. If it were looking for evil from every corner of the world, don’t you think they would stumble upon an idol at one point or another? Hell, in an actual fleshed out dbd lore there would probably be some killer who just looks like a guy.. wearing a blue shirt and jeans with a small beard that looks like a survivor because GUESS WHAT??? EVIL DOESNT HAVE A LOOK! There’s a chance you’ve met murderers in real life and didn’t even know because how would you? They look like normal ass people. The entity looks over the whole globe, from different points in time, looking for any hint of malice. Eventually there would have to be some idol from Korea. Besides, if all the killers looked similar or of the same nature that would be hella boring
“He isn’t scary enough”
A lot of people say that he isn’t scary and he doesn’t necessarily have to be. A lot of the killers in dbd, if not most of them, aren’t scary AT ALL. Trapper isn’t scary, Huntress isn’t scary, Blight isn’t scary, I mean, NONE OF THEM ARE REALLY SCARY? People will say “it’s supposed to be a horror game” but ? Not really. It’s an action survival game with horrific elements which is why it has the survival horror genre on steam. Otherwise, how so is it a horror game? It hasn’t been, it never really was. It has funny accessories and outfits you can collect, LEGION CAN LITERALLY WEAR A BUNNY COSTUME AND CLOWN CAN WEAR AN ELEPHANT ONE, WITH FUCKING GOOGLY EYES. I DONT THINK ITS REALLY A HORROR GAME.
Okay end of rant! let me summarize!
I like the new killer, the concept is super cool with his backstory and all. I think his perks and design are cool, I only have a couple of complaints, but overall I think he’s neat! However, people need to fuckimg chill with the lowkey racism and lowkey gender roles !!!!!!!
that will be all !
*curtsies and then bows and does a backflip off the stage, AND THEN breaks my neck*
end note: HE WIMKS AT YOU IN THE LOBBY :D HEART SO HAPPY!!!!!!!

Death Note (2017)
okay, so I just watched the Death Note movie and damn that shit was
WILD
so im just going to compile some small notes about how bad and how much they fucked Death Note like fuck man
Please Note: there are going to be elements of spoilers in this list so if you are planning on watching Death Note (2017) be aware (but in all honesty please dont watch it just watch the 2006 Anime Adaptation I beg you, I am doing you a solid)
lets begin
ok so first off, this shit is americanised so of course there is a buttload of whitewashing because if you didnt know Death Note is Japanese and set in Japan and the characters are Japanese - please.
Light Yagami is a good boy™ so like how dare you make this shitty bad boy - hes doing other peoples homework please no
the Death Note lands right next to him - um no the Death Note lands 10 feet away from Yagami and outside his classroom stop this
also it starts raining right after he picks up the Death Note - spoooky
white!light finds some bullys who are obviously over school age and so he pulls the child abuse card on them if they were to hit him - he gets decked anyway.
he gets caught with the homework and put into detention and oh no the light went out - creepy factor™ to the max - so spooked
oh yeah, did i mention that this film is rated an 18
so of course theres been swearing and cursing from everyone, even Light - sorry not my Light
best part of the film was white!light shitting himself when he see Ryuk like yes 10/10 A++ content would watch that scene again
white!light also slaps himself and i wanted him to do it more
theres more swearing, i mean i had to settle in for a wild ride with fucks and shits throughout this whole film, but like the anime was only a 15
also Willem Dafoe as Ryuks voice was pretty cool, had a nice ring to it but anyway
he goes to kill older bully because Ryuk says he wants to (obviously hes hesitant) but cant
legit words from the film “i dont have a pen” Ryuk pulls out a pen “well its good you have one” im yeLLING
he writes older bully guys name down but oh no, Ryuk tells him to write down how so guess what
HE CHOOSES DECAPITATION IM SERIOUS YALL THIS IS HIS FIRST KILL NO HESITATION JUST WRITES DOWN DECAPITATION LIKE WHO FUCKEN WROTE THIS
FUCKEN GORE TO THE MAX YOU SEE THIS GUYS HEAD BE FUCKEN RIPPED FROM HIS BODY BY A TRAGIC ACCIDENT LIKE FUCK
by this point i was already like #NotMyDeathNote i mean
dad is introduced, but where is mother and sister - ill tell you where - non existant (mum is dead and there was never any sister)
MORE SWEARING >:(
theres still apples tho and Ryuk still loves them
white!light reads the Death Note rules (well he actually skims them but okay)
comes across some scribble and sees a not “dont trust Ryuk”
HE PRONOUNCES IT RYE-UK NO LIE IM LIKE HOW THE FUCK DARE YOU NO ITS RYUK PRONOUNCED REE-UK FUCK YOU
its okay tho because Ryuk comes out and shuts him down with the correct pronunciation like yas bitch you tell him
ALSO LET ME LOOK AT MY MAIN MAN STOP PUTTING HIM IN THE DARKNESS LET ME SEE HIS FACE NOT JUST HIS EYES
Ryuk suggests shark attacks on the toilet as a not possible example of death - Ryuk i thought you were better than this
angry scribbling of names - damn white!light is mad
AND ANOTHER THING WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE HEART ATTACKS LIKE HE JUST KEPT SPECIFYING THE DEATHS - NO THIS IS NOT HOW IT WORKS YOU DONT NEED TO JUST KEEP WRITING THESE SHITTY DEATHS
you get one look at Ryuk and damn, my man you ugly im sorry they did you like that
okay back at school, watching the team practice and guess what
HES GOT THE DEATH NOTE AND HES READING IT IN THE OPEN IN PUBLIC - BITCH PUT IT THE FUCK AWAY
OH BUT WAIT A GIRL SEES HIM - SHE NOTICES IT AND IS LIKE “oo Death Note whats that” AND HES LIKE “nah its nothing™”
BUT IT GETS BETTER
HE TELLS HER ABOUT IT AND LETS HER READ IT AND SHOWS HER HOW IT WORKS LIKE WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON - MY LIGHT WOULD NEVER DO THIS
I DONT EVEN KNOW WHO THIS CHICK IS BUT APPARENTLY HE DOES AND SHE KNOWS HIM SO IM LIKE WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS SO WRONG - WHO IS SHE?!?!?!
so new girl who im sure is supposed to be Misa Misa says to white!light “lets change the world together” and so these words obviously go straight to white!lights dick because theres sexual tension in the air
“can i kiss you?” “youre not suppose to ask”
she just fucken pins him to the wall shes making him her bitch and theyre kissing ugh my eyes hurt
cut back to school and they in class and they looking at each other like they fucked
then theres more kissing like fucking straight white movie romances am i right
theyre finding a name for the God who will rule the new world
of course its Kira like what else is it going to be
“Kira means light in celtic” and then quickly “also its similar to the word killer in Japanese” like damn bitch i wonder why you quickly said that - oh yeah because Death Note is actUALLY JAPANESE
im so fucjing done with this film

“if you fuck this were not the good guys anymore” - what part of killing people, be they bad or not, makes you the good guys? NONE
L and Light meeting in a cafe
L becomes a cat and pushes shit off the table
“youre the one who flew into the sun, im just the one to make sure you actually burn” - yooOOOOOOO L rekt u
white!lights dad dares to be killed - Mia thinks about doing it but white!light stops her - she gets dumped
she begs for him back
she pulls out the i love you card
it works because of course it would and theyre kissing again - like fuck no bitch you tried to kill my dad get the fuck out
Watari is targeted, his name is written in the book - LEAVE HIM ALONE
apparently people can be spared by burning the page with their name on it, what kind of bullshit
