I Just Saw Portions Of The Aerith Gold Saucer Date.

FF7 REMAKE GIRLIES PLEASE

Don’t say you played the game if you only watched the cutscenes!

I’ll be talking about wind materia and the girlie I’m having a discussion with doesn’t know what I’m talking about 😭😭😭

Or they call every sword Cloud has the buster sword even though it’s not 😭😭😭

There are already stereotypes that girls don’t play games. Yes each game now is 100 CAD but at least watch the gameplay element.

Female gamers like myself sometimes want to have discussions with other female gamers about both gameplay and story. Video game discussion is already dominated by dudes and sometimes you just wanna say you struggled with a mini game because your nails were too long 😭😭😭

Zettaflare solve all problems….I think

male lions are known for killing their own cubs

Shipping is such a funny thing...

Cause, like... I wholeheartedly believe that Gaara is, or at one point in their youth was, in love with Naruto. Like, the kind of one-sided love that you learn to be at peace with but never truly get over, you know? And I really don't mean that in a depressing way. It totally works for me that he doesn't end up romantically involved with anyone at the end of the canon telling of this story. It just fits with the way I already read his character and relationships.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME...

Sometimes I rewatch those filler episodes with Fu and can't help but think... I could get behind that pairing.

Like, logically, it could never happen, as she's dead for most of the canon timeline... But... Her energy and enthusiasm paired with his overly formal awkwardness? They could have been something really cute and fun, guys. Nobody's gonna convince me otherwise.

Rin shows Haruka some skills he learned in the land down under~

For Ono♥♥♥♥ We both love Rin so much

Finished reading my lost himawari. It’s a SNS doujin that I understand has mixed to positive reviews.

I think it’s okay, a lot wrong with it tbh but there are two stand out chapters/sequences that I really wish were canon.

Naruto’s Hokage inauguration Genjutsu

Like a lot of people, I wasn’t very happy with the that fact Naruto missed his big day. I really like the idea that after Sasuke had heard about Naruto missing the event, he decided to put him in a genjutsu that had him experience it in his own way. It’s really thoughtful from Sasuke’s end, regardless of it coming from a sns fic. I just wish he actually did this because he cares about Naruto and knew how much being Hokage matters to him.

Conclusion to Shippuden Ep 479

This sequence was everything I wanted when I first watched the episode. I was shocked that Naruto was letting Sasuke go again without a fight. It’s like he seemed happy about Sasuke leaving the leaf again after all his efforts. I never thought Naruto would take the news gracefully. Additionally, the idea that Naruto would dissociate and stare into the distance for hours after Sasuke left is chefs kiss. He 💯 did that in canon. I also like the implication, that despite Naruto getting what he wanted on paper, he still doesn’t have sasuke by his side all the time. There is nothing more painful than knowing that phones and all exist (also teleporting) but Naruto doesn’t hear back from Sasuke unless it’s in person which in canon is every two to ten years of radio silence. It’s heart breaking and sometimes, it makes sense why some people think he somewhat moved on to Hinata because he was in some sense, killing time and found a way to cope with Sasuke’s absence by spending time with someone who makes time for you. Nothing is stopping them from seeing eachother and no one is getting chased around.

Anyways, those are my thoughts. Fics about cheating are complicated because the topic itself is such a bummer. I get long time fans being disappointed in the pairings but wow does it feel like major projection at times.

Also it’s weird but I’m conflicted on the sns ship. I still believe it’s one-sided and also Sasuke shouldn’t be in a relationship because he is the problem in all of his pairings. That being said, I like the doujin writers take that sasuke and Naruto would take turns doing each other. Like the thought that both of them thought they were topping. I slightly prefer Sasuke as the one topping but whatever, that’s not important. I’m glad there is no nsfw moments until after the story concluded and everything else was filler lol

Danganronpa Games Hot Takes (Spoilers for all Games)

Danganronpa 1/TTH:

I love the first game because most characters felt like they could be real people and were not too anime. People about their pets and stuff like studying, like a regular 16-17 year old who prob wanted to go to some top schools. The executions in this game WERE THE BEST. I LOVE ALL OF THEM. No game can beat the creativity of the first few executions.

I will say that the English voice acting overall was weak and very stilted. The English voice actors did better in their V3 characters than their TTH characters. Of course, people get better as they go and honestly I think they were just miscasted in their characters in the first game. 

Danganronpa 2/GD:

I love the trials for this game. Even though, I may not care for most of the characters in this game, they were put into some creative situations. 

Nagito had too much screen time and too smart among other things. I feel like he did the same thing as Kyoko in the first game with not telling the player the hints and that was annoying. I feel like he cant have it all, crazy lucky, has a huge presence in the game and is too smart. It’s like PICK ONE and split the rest with other more deserving characters. The thing is that even though I don’t have favourites in this game because most people are either too wacky or bland, there were some characters that would greatly benefit from having more screen time, helpful trial assistance or just plot armour. Mahiru, Soda, Sonia and even Akane. I find Mahiru to be helpful during the first trial, and if she got more screen time or plot armour, her character would be better because without doing her freetime events, no player likes her. I also include the survivors because I think some characters that should be smart like Soda and Sonia aren’t that helpful during trials. Some of the things Nagito did during investigations should have been given to these characters. Well maybe the ones that make sense to their characters, Nagito can keep the time he broke into everyone’s places to trace their shoes LOL. Imagine if no one told him about the game in chapter 2? and he doesnt have enough time to finish the game before the trial starts? That would give other characters needed screen time among other things like not making him be seen as much as a threat to the player because he came unprepared due to his situations. Also, Akane should just be more than one note and actually contribute to the trials. 

Quick tangent, but even though Nagito was out for both chapters 2 and 3, he still knew everything and I don’t think that’s fair. I feel like he needs space to develop as a character to have that buildup for Chapter 5. Not saying that his part in chapter 5 was unbelievable but imagine him almost getting away with it because he learned from his mistakes and whatnot from past trials. He realized that he wanted to commit the perfect crime and get away with it, he needs to understand what he did wrong the first time in chapter 1 and analyse the past culprits to really optimize his plan. I have mixed feelings on this character but I always felt he had too much going for him. Also his dialogue is so repetitive, I feel like thats why so many people hate him because reading his lines can get old quickly with the hope bs. 

Anyways, I like chapter 3 but just not so much the trial. 

Danganronpa V3:

Okay I could go on about this one, all I’m gonna say is that I think the English voice acting in this game is SO GOOD. I LOVE EVERYONE AND THE ACTORS DID SO WELL. 

Miu and Kokichi should have argued and bantered more, if anything I wish Miu fought back like she did when she called Kokichi an Abortion. I love their dynamic because they make the trials more fun and less boring to go through. I feel like they work better as a duo so when Miu died, the trials become less fun and a slob to get through. Same thing with Kokichi, it’s just I love these two characters because they make me laugh. 

I sort of liked them together because I can totally see them as friends and like I’m surprised Miu tried to kill him or that people don’t ship them more. 

Btw, I feel like for Kokichi, he should have stayed the same character he was like from Chapters 1-3. When chapters 4 and 5 happened, I lost what was happening and did not like how his character developed. I guess he is a really fickle character and he reminds me of Hiyoko/bully character. I never viewed him as that smart. I feel like you don’t need an antagonist character among the group. I get that no one trusts him but I just did not like how his character storyline went. His English voice actor is great thou, I remember listening to his Japanese one and not really thinking much about it. 

This game has the worst cast. Love the group dynamics but woah, these characters need to stop saying their catchphrases. 

I really really really want a 90s/2000s coming of age show like Boy Meets World or Malcolm in the Middle but canonically gay. Like I’m talking 90s cameras, graphics, sound equipment for the full effect. I’m talking full-on sexuality crisis for the main character in the same episode style as all the others, where there is a clear setup and story line and it becomes more of a background thing later on and just becomes so normal for the story and the characters that it’s like it was always there, but can be brought back into the forefront for other episode arcs. And then of course you can put in a romance arc… ;)

I think the stage play did a decent job of adapting this two :)

Also really like the costuming too.

Advent children was a good movie but I still don’t think Cloud got truly over Aerith.

I feel like he got over her similar to getting over a breakup. I think he got better at coping with it. Similar to how getting triggered by small things that remind you of your ex, you just take the triggers as face-value as a coping mechanism.

For example, flowers and scenic landscapes remind him of Aerith, but they’re also just pretty and worth taking photos of.

In the credits, he printed out many photos of different landscapes. Someone said maybe it’s because he sees Aerith in those photos or he just took up photography as a new hobby as we all do :/

Regardless, I’m glad he’s happy but I got a feeling he’s still looking forward to going to promised land/heaven so he can be with Aerith.
