Advent Children Was A Good Movie But I Still Don’t Think Cloud Got Truly Over Aerith.

What’s the context of the photo???

It’s so random and so out of character but it’s funny.

Games’ over

FFXVI "You're alive. We both are. Nothing else matters."

Link Click & AX

Was not able to go to AX but found this from someone who did on reddit.

This is one anecdote from the director regarding the show.

"...regarding the choice/dynamic of having 2 male MCs: having observed many other media, Haoling decided that splitting 1 protagonist into 2 characters would make for better storytelling. by giving the characters only half of what they need, their abilities are more grounded, they are forced to cooperate socially, it gives the audience more entertaining and dynamic banter, and they must build trust in order to effectively accomplish tasks."

Love this statement. When I would explain to my friends why people should watch LC, I would say its a time travel show with an unique premise. There are two main leads. Imagine both are trying to ace a midterm (you can pair up with a buddy lol). One person has the paper & pencil and the other has the answer key. They can't ace the midterm alone without the help of each other's resources - so they must to work together to ace the test because they can only do it once. What seems like a simple example gets applied to solving puzzles/mysteries and finding data.

The interesting part is that the main leads have very different approaches to accomplishing the tasks that they are given. Even though they were friends for a long time, when serious things happen like working a job together, they struggle with their different mindsets and it causes a lot of strife between them. Side note, don’t want to take sides here but I wouldn’t argue with the guy who has the literal answer key you know?

Anyway- Slowly, there became a lack of trust between the leads as both of them start to withhold info from the other. That makes it worse and it hits a boiling point.

Something so simple that happens all the time in real life yet is often never depicted in such a real sense, particularly in an animation format. I like the style of anime but I want my stories to be grounded. I want to see my struggles on the screen.

It's also kinda validating to see a friendship fall apart once you decide to become co workers with one another and realize that just because you two both like basketball, doesnt mean maybe you should run a high-stress somewhat illegal business together right after uni to pay off debt :/

i need to make this JasJas

TIMMY ! GOBBLES !

very true!

Clives new outfit was literally a size or two too small and realistically, it would have ripped at some point. I just need fanart of the seams of his top coming off in a middle.

I need to see his nude model

I use to think Vaan (Dissidia games) or Firion were great but Clive is clearly the most attractive.

No malicious intent cuz I’m ace yall - I just like looking at his body

Also it seems he has a huge butt too which is rare for video game dudes lol

I THOUGHT YALL WERE LYING THERE IS SO MUCH HOMOSEXUAL TENSION IN NARUTO

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

THISSS^^^

We NEED MORE GAMER GIRLIES OR THOSE WHO CARE ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF SEPHY FANFICS. People who love Sephy and played the game will look up the fanfics after playing or something, only to find it mainly or noticeably coming from folks who didn’t get his character because they only watched crisis core on YouTube and skipped half of the cutscenes that didn’t feature him. That are they watched advent children and based his entire dom daddy personality on that alone and nothing else.

We are fully capable of writing good Sephy fics if more people took the time to actually enjoy FF7, not just watch the spin off material and call it a day.

Yall I love all of you Sephiroth girlies but I have a big favour to ask yall.

PLEASE PLAY THE GAMES. Dont just watch only watch the 40 minute Sephiroth cutscene on YouTube and base your entire perception of the guy. If yall at least learned the plot of the game, you would really appreciate the character more.

MORE OVER, THE QUALITY OF SEPHIROTH FANFICS WOULD INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY IF YALL COULD REFERENCES SOME OF THE GAME’S LOCATIONS AND NAIL DOWN SUPPORTING CHARACTER MOTIVATIONS AND PERSONALITY.

Some of yall don’t know Sephiroth’s characterization and seem to go off your personal headcanons or use typical anime tropes when writing him. Sephiroth isn’t some anime bad boy, he’s vindictive, petty and scary soft spoken. Just look at how he flicked Aerith’s blood off his masamune towards Cloud. Or when his hand kept running up Cloud’s back and up unto his neck in one of Cloud’s hallucinations. I get that from watching clips out of context, his actions might seem like a dom daddy and all but he’s more than that if you see it through different perspectives. Like don’t forget, he’s trying to destroy the world with a giant meteor crashing down and wiping everyone out.

Just putting it out there.
