i know this has been said before but literally this show is insane. cas pulling the brothers out of hell. he left an actual brand (read: claim) on dean's shoulder and like. misplaced sam's entire soul. one of these things is not like the other
I love that theory thing where Apollo mostly acts the way he does, because he knows not being taken seriously is way safer then people knowing and remembering he is not only the only god with a connection to prophecy, he also regained godhood without any help, has a strong connection to mortals, is actually incredibly intelligent thanks to his domain of knowledge, and the fact that like he beat python as a mortal did I mention he hung over chaos?? I’m never dropping that guys he fucking hung over chaos
Also like he has humility????? Created camp half blood technically maybe???? And is the only god who has been turned completely mortal like. In general.
He’s actually really smart and scarily powerful cause the arts are already divine and that’s also his thing (that’s just a small tidbit of mine I like thinking about) but acting like he isn’t (and sometimes just being unwise cause his domain’s intellectuality not wisdom that’s Athena’s thing) is just better to do strategically. If your opponent thinks your incompetent they won’t treat as an equal which works in your favor, especially when you’re just well better than them.
Decided to dust off my old art blog with a rough doodle of everyone's favorite gambler.
OKAY, so I know no one ever talks about SAO abridged on here but it's version of Kirito is like definitely autistic, right? I have the tism and I'm just saying, he probably has it too.
I'm not sure about the original Kirito since I couldn't get through season one but i genuinely feel so connected to abridged Kirito. He's so bad at socializing, he's so insecure, and he has a special interest in video games. I mean come on, he would rather live in a video game than in reality. Season 2 really shows the true scope of his autism. He went through serious character growth the last season so he's a lot less egotistical in this one. Because of this we can see what he was hiding before. He genuinely cares about Tiffany and their friendship and he shows this by directly stating it which is like a literal and blunt way to do things which can be autistic. He gets all excited about the new VR fairy game to the point he didn't hear Tiffany talk about his missing wife. He starts rambling and My God I love that scene so much cause he's just so happy and we don't get to see him happy too much. His little "Noooooooo," when he was acting out him destroying all the noobs lives in head rent free.
Kirito also speaks in a lot of sarcasm and movie references. And that is not necessarily an autism symptom but I do that a lot and so do a lot of other autistic people I know. He also takes things literally, like when Asuna (is that how you spell it?) said he really speaks from the heart in episode 2 and he responds, "I thought I was speaking from my mouth, guess that shows what I know about autonomy." He seemed completely serious too.
I just LOVE this Kirito so much to the point when SAO is mentioned I want to say I love that anime but then I remember that it's not the anime that I love but the abridged version on YouTube. Like, I see Kirito fan art and I have to remind myself that it's not the character I fell in love with.
I find it kinda funny that I resonate so much with a fan made thing rather then the original.
Anyway, this giant thing is just a scratch on the surface of reasons I love SAO abridged. The character development, humor, emotional moments and story beats are just so good.
I can go on and on about why I think Kirito is autistic too. Like, I only named a few things.
vox and alastor when they first met maybe!!!!!
after this they formed a one sided close friendship and vox considered alastor a genuine companion (and wanted to do the occasional spit swapping) and so he's been craving his attention and approval ever since this!!!!!! (im crazy abt them)
I saw these alignment charts and knew I had to make a squid game version of them lol. Enjoy!
the Sam and Cas Dynamic™️ is like when you’re babysitting little kids and suddenly everything’s quiet and they’re nowhere to be seen and you just Know you’re going to walk in on something Bad. except instead of toddlers you have a 6ft+ approaching middle-aged hunter and a trillion year old eldritch horror who have enough trauma and brain damage between the two of them to make them completely and idiotically feral. and instead of like. drawing on the walls with sharpie. they’re committing willing acts of bodily harm and antagonizing powerful cosmic beings without any actual critical thought
This is so funny 🤣
HOWLING at how close together Dean and Cas are standing.
One of my favorite scenes from season 1
Gi-hun! Do you know why your life is so pathetic? Because you ask the dumbest questions even in this situation. Constantly minding other people's business with that pea brain of yours, not knowing your ass from your elbow.
I’m late to this party, but shhh here’s a comic
Just watched season 2 part 1 of Dragons Rising and I love it!!
I think what would be so funny though is that when Jay finally does come back Nya will come up to him, tears in her eyes and he'll just be like, "who are you?"
And it'll be soul crushing but Jay then like sees Kai and it's like that scene from the pilot and instantly has a crush cause c'mon, he's definitely bisexual. I could just imagine him asking Kai what's his favorite color, like in the pilot and being a blushing mess while Nya is absolutely heartbroken and also in shock while Kai is completely disturbed and confused.
In the next episode or so while Jay is still an amnesiac, Nyas like "give him back" and Kais like, "you can have him??!!! In fact, take him away, please!"
I think it'd be so funny if he just kept trying to impress Kai or something and Kai is barely keeping himself from either killing himself or Jay. He only hasn't because he loves Nya too much.
