i think my biggest issue with tcw anakin is just the fact that most of the time he not only felt like a generic action hero,but a male power fantasy. many times in the show he displays aggressive/dominant behavior towards the people around him,it's more obvious with padmé, but it can be seen with everyone else too. in the movies he got desperate instead of just plain aggressive when in distress and often cried,something i'm not sure he ever does in tcw.
in the movies he was pathetic, and it was one of the most intresting choices lucas made with the character. in tcw he just constantly acts aggresive and dominant, even though in the pt the only time he displayed that kind of behavior was mustafar,where he was at his MOST unhinged. tcw just acts as if anakin had 100 mini mustafars leading up to the big one, and there's no indication of that in the movies at all. his violent,controlling behavior was a shock to both obi wan and padmé, why would it be if he had just behaved as a light version of that for three years?

this quote is what sums it up best for me. it seems to me as if the writers tought that for anakin to show his darkness (which is very present in the movies too) he had to be just plain angry,instead of "melodramatic" or "whiny",traits that people wrongfully associate with,you guessed it,women.
tcw anakin is just much more predominantly masculine in the most stereotypical sense of the word,and people tought that for him to be that he just had to be much angrier and controlling,instead of someone genuinely tragic and pathetic in the original sense of the word (derived from the greek πάθος) .

I love how these are from an Unreality subreddit but to my eye they just read like regular Tumblr shitposts. Did we cross-pollinate or something

Fucking hate watching children go “um Actually UwU” about AO3. saw someone say that fixing a bug with bookmarks isn’t a good reason to close a site down for a couple hours and they’re all lying about what they spend money on
meanwhile this very week my actual day job shut down the internal programmes for idk how many hours to fix a minor bug that popped up out of nowhere. I mean??? I don’t know shit about IT but “shut down all functions while we fix a problem” is so damn common. And “oh this took longer than we said” as well.
#I pay good money for stuff that is regularly in unscheduled maintenance#The bank#My main work apps#Newspaper archives#Etc#The entire cloudflare network was fucked the other week when they tried to push a live fix#By contrast AO3 deserves a gold star

Would you ever write more for dbh?
probably! My fandom love is never dead, just dormant, lol.
seriously though, if I felt inspired I would. I wrote some more Young Dracula fic after like 12 years when somebody sent me a prompt!

Saw a screencap from Perfect Blue and I wanted to draw it with Obi-Wan
Smth about bloody feral obi-wan contrasted with the in-universe propaganda of him...
