First post!
I'm usually more wholesome with my art, but... Cloud :)
Chainsaw man fucking sucks but the first chapter was so good. Denji was a decent character but the moment his ambitions (touching girls bodies) was revealed, it ruined his character. Him explicitly viewing the women around him as sex objects is awful. He doesn’t even really care if he dislikes them, he just wants to touch their breasts. The male author can’t help himself and justifies it by having the female characters act in a way that women would not act like and feed into his perversions. Not to mention, the story is MID. It wasn’t even worth the read for the story.
light yagami is so fucking stupid in like a month they narrowed it down from like it could be anyone in the world.. to it could be anyone in japan to it could be anyone in the kanto region to it could be any student in the kanto region to its honestly probably one of the family members of these two policemen and my god this mans son is so fucking weird whats wrong with him like honestly i think L should have just taken the risk and hit light with a car one day and been like huh funny the kira murders stopped right this policemans son got hit by a car i asked my chauffeur to drive into him funny how that works out
Controversial? takes on anime dubs. I’m fluent in both English and Mandarin. There is a high chance comedies work better in a language I understand.
Code Geass Dub > Sub (watched the show dubbed first and didn’t care about it, rewatched it shortly after dubbed and it impacted me more)
Jujutsu Kaizen Dub > Sub (I don’t know why but the JJK sub is so ordinary to me, jokes don’t translate well/land well as much as the dub. Also really love dub Yuji)
Buddy Daddies Dub > Sub (dub Kazuki is a standout)
Seraph of the End Dub > Sub (only watched two episodes but the sub bothered me because the voices of the two main characters didn’t match so I switched over to dub and it was much better)
Sk8 Dub < Sub (I just don’t like dubbed Reki 😕)
Attack on Titan Dub < Sub (I feel like the sub is better at emotional moments that involve screaming)
I remember when I first saw this scene. My thought process was: dang he took his clothes off to only realize that he didn’t like what he saw and then told him to put his clothes back on :/
What ACTUALLY happened in that scene with Cid and Clive....
I watched the arc with no context and it was the most depressing thing I’ve seen in a while. I remember little Sasuke and Sakura doing their shenanigans in OG Naruto to randomly see a flash forward to a shotgun wedding, daddy issues and single mother/deadbeat father tropes. It’s so weird and not the happily ever after I thought the series would have as someone who hasn’t seen all of the episodes.
I’m sorry but this is so bad. Boruto makes me sad for both Sakura and Sasuke tbh. It makes Sakura look super desperate and Sasuke just doesn’t act like he loves her. They don’t have enough organic chemistry. It’s so mood dampening and reads like a bad fanfic.
Something from my notes while I was watching Shippuden
It’s weird that Naruto married a woman who is quiet, introverted and has special eye powers. During my time watching this god forsaken show, I noted down that Naruto seems to attract introverted shy downer boys like Gaara and Sasuke. I guess there is something about that type of personality he likes in dudes. I am still very doubtful that he would like that personality in a woman because he criticized his future wife who had the same personality but in the end, he seemingly married her. It’s like he married a female-ish Sasuke. Like someone who superficially sounds like him on paper.
For Sasuke, he doesn’t seem to like a lot of people outside of his family. He tolerated Naruto’s extroverted, loud and confident behaviour. He was annoyed by his obsession with chasing after him though. I don’t blame him he gets it from both sides and it’s not like he has a mentor to ask for advice on how to deal with it. Anyway, I’ve seen him ignore Sakura who has a similar personality to Naruto at times. She’s tomboyish and has the former traits. He low-key criticized her for being obsessed with him. He also doesn’t seem to visually like pushy women, but it might be because every woman so far has been pushy in their advances and flirty towards him. There is no shame for whoever has a crush on him. But he doesn’t seem to mind it as much when Naruto does it. I mean he does mind it but he didn’t say it’s disgusting or anything. It’s again weird that he married Sakura because I always felt like he didn’t like that kind of woman but he’s okay with it when it’s a guy to a more tolerable extent.
Those two really did marry the female version of their “type”. But again, the impression I got so far was that they didn’t like that personality if it was the opposite sex for whatever reason.
I know I just finished the show but I feel like LITERALLY everyone married the wrong person. Everyone should swapped partners. More people should be single, some people shouldn’t be dead while others I’m shocked they survived (looking at you KIBA AND MIGHT GUY) and others who aren’t married yet for some reason.
Sakura and Naruto, I love you both dearly but you both married the wrong people in my eyes. But this also applies to everyone else so don’t come for me (this wasn’t in my notes but I have to put this in here - I’m just copying pasting my immediate thoughts I wrote in my notes lol)
It’s just weird. I followed a strict anime filler guide and it makes me feel like I missed something.
Food for thought
Oh also Sasuke totally gives off I have commitment issues, bachelor vibes and just lone wolf identity. Kinda like Jiraya but not a pervert or a writer. More like he just wants to be alone even if it meant being away from society. To me, he will always prioritize himself above everyone else because he has way too much baggage. He just comes across as someone who wants to be in solitude. It’s unfortunate because he had such a bright future when he was a kid but in canon, he seems to be married while living his bachelor lifestyle from the ending.
