Reblog If You Believe Chloe Still Deserves A Character Arc.

Many people on this new fandom have the audacity of demonizing Alma without even trying to look deeper into her story. Tell me, have any of you:

•Had your hometown burned to the ground and escaping within an inch of your life. Probably lost the rest of your family to the flames?

•Ran into the wild unknown for weeks while making sure your newborn triplets are all fed and healthy while constantly checking your surroundings and provisions, having little to no sleep?

•Had the love of your life stabbed to death in front of your eyes and being physically incapable of doing something, not only for the mere shock, but also to protect the lives of your children?

•Been saved by a miracle out of nowhere, and whoops! You, a newly widowed with 3 children, are now the chosen leader of a community of hundreds of terrified people?

•Had no option to give your beloved a proper funeral? Had no way to express your grief, pain or fear for the responsibility and image bestowed upon you can't allow any cracks? EVERY. SINGLE. THING. YOU. DO. is going to affect the people around you. You're the one that holds the magical candle. You have to be strong, for everyone, for the people, and for your offsprings

•Had no idea how to relate or help your magical 5yo, having no other guide but your gut instinct? Consider:

-One of your daughters can't feel negative emotions, otherwise someone will get struck by lightning. Better to teach her to repress feelings

-Your son seems to predict only bad things. Self-explanatory why people doesn't like him. Also, he strongly resembles your dead husband

-Your other daughter now has to wake up before the sun rises to make tons of healing food. There's no break, and you can't stop her from helping people. Why would the miracle give them gifts, if not for aid the community?

•Wrongly believe that your family's role in life, the only reason you were saved, was for helping others; and slowly accommodate and settle in that lifestyle. Silently burying your troubles behind a smile. Years start passing by, your daughters get married and you get grandchildren. The town gets bigger. Everyone has to work harder for things to go smooth

•Suddenly had one of your granddaughters turn up giftless. Why? What does this mean? The people are panicked, you're at lost of what to do. You can't move, just like that time many years ago. You ask your Brunito, the only sort of lead you have for an explanation, and he disappears, not even saying goodbye.

•Feel like you have to make up for it, like this is your mistake. You already lost your husband and son. You're not going to lose anyone else. You have to take control.

•No idea what to make of Mirabel. She made the candle flicker. Could she be a threat to the magic, to the family, to Encanto? It can't be, she's innocent, isn't she? But Luisa loses her gift. But the marriage proposal is ruined. But you finally get the explanation you asked ten years ago. But the cracks are appearing everywhere around Casita. But Isabella's plants invade town in middle of making amends with the Guzmán. But her perfect grandchild is a mess. Once again everything is chaos, and you're angry

No, you haven't, and it shows.

Does it justify the harsh treatment at Mirabel? No. Neither does it justify your attempts to dehumanise her.

So, my last week in a nutshell

Steven Universe the Movie, Desperada and Reflectdoll:We're about to end this man whole's career

Idk, I think Michel and Berta's husband would survive. I do want Efraín torn to shreds. Wipe the floor with that desgraciado.

Sometimes I have thoughts....

If Betty la Fea was popular with English speakers, either Mario or Freddie would be the Tumblr Sexymen....

Throwback to when I took painkillers and woke up with Photoshop open on my computer to this image I had made

I'm sure I can't be the only one who wants a musical password. Like, if someone tries to steal my phone and search my data they would have to select a very specific playlist and if they get it wrong, BANG! bitch, now you have to listen to Rick Astley for 10 hour loop and you can't stop it.

To everyone in this site:

Also, rip @tothechaos. Soon to die of ink poisoning but never forgotten

glad that im not popular enough to have an evil shadow version of my blog that exists just to make contradictions on my posts

Never forget that Steven Universe’s queerness was intrinsically linked in its narrative and themes. It told a story of oppression, mental health, triumph, and loving yourself using characters both metaphorically and literally queer (along with neurodivergent, PoC…there’s a lot of layers to this). Anyone downplaying its LGBT+ rep is talking out of their ass. I’m so tired of this show being the animation community’s punching bag. The discourse around this show hasn’t changed since 2018. Who fucking cares that it isn’t perfect, we’ve heard it all, most agree. But the fact a cartoon for children aimed to be this nuanced, complex, and mature, whilst still being a whimsical cartoon is amazing and exactly what kids need. I know they’ll grow up thankful that they watched it and all the other cartoons following in its footsteps.

Seven major flaws in “Beastars”

I fricking love Beastars. I realy do. But I’m not gonna pretend that it’s perfect.

So here are SEVEN major flaws about this pretty great manga.

Lack of murder mystery.

I’m a big fan of crime fiction mysteries. My favorite detective is Phryne Fisher. So I looked forward to a classic murder mystery.

But Legosi just kinda… solved it.

Sure, the way he solved it was fine. But I would have liked a little more buildup, I wanted Riz to be properly introduced and be allowed to guess who the culprit was. I think Riz as a murderer is great and he is a perverse mirroring of Legosi with a burdening guilt/lack of guilt parallel… But I wanted to be given the chance to guess and wonder.

Melon is all over the place.

The thing about Melon that makes him both a god villain and a BAD villain is the fact that he is all over the place. Sort of an animal Joker I guess.

I think of Melon as a perverse anarchist. He has an ideology similar to Louis at the start of the series, just times ten. He believes that civilization is a farce and that everyone is a bunch of drooling animals playing pretend, meaning he doesn’t have to feel any guilt at all about the horrible things he does since he is just another mad beast.

But it doesn’t feel like he has a specific goal as such. He cause pain to everything around him just because he can. Sure, there is the thing about him desperately wanting to know what tasting something is like, but it doesn’t feel like a dominating factor in his life.

Not enough romance.

When there IS romantic interaction between the characters then it is pretty darn good. But we need MORE of it. I get that Legosi and Haru has a long-distance relationship since they are different places in life, but it doesn’t have to be THAT long-distanced.

Character getting shoved away.

So you like Juno, eh? You enjoyed reading about Sebun, huh? You wanna know what’s up at Cherryton Academy?

TOO BAD!

The chimera thingy.

That went nowhere. Even Kyuu was all like “forget about that!” And it also seems a bit out of place in Beastars, it’s more of a Dragon Ball or One Piece thingy where superpowers are a thing.

Speaking of which…

Superpowers.

I actually like the way hybrids were handled in Beastars, how they walked the fine line of having “powers” and still be somewhat realistic-ish. Legosi is huge and broad-shouldered because of his lizard grandpa, but he is more or less a normal wolf with the exception of being immune to poison which is a neat little detail. And Melon’s whole deal is that his body is so bizarre that it is a problem for him as well.

… But to let Legosi gain temporarily regeneration because of komodo dragon poison activating a gene AND make Melon buff overnight is… yeah… I’m at a loss for words.

Haru should have a gun.

Or a knife or take self defense classes, ANYTHING!
