Gintama’s Really Got Something For Everyone.

Gintama’s really got something for everyone.

The anime’s funny and has this energy to it that you can tell everyone involved was having a great time. It’s a wonderful ensemble comedy that genuinely makes me laugh out loud.

The serious arcs are hype as heck, the fights are brutal and well choreographed. And they exist to magnify the emotional beats, so they feel like they have narrative weight. It matters how a fight goes down.

It’s a very good political drama. From the beginning you can tell that something shifty is going on, and each group is more or less its own political faction. The plotting is tight and it’s easy to follow what each faction wants and why.

And it has really a great philosophical message. It has something to say, and that message is bigger than all the individual moments of self reflection from the cast. The narrative feels subtly woven together to make that greater message.

And it’s anime comfort food. It’s found family. It’s learning to live and make connections to other people even though it’s hard.

It’s a series that’s big enough that you could live in it.

All of these are in character tbh so I'm not sure, but I'm guessing the third? And you may send me regular updates about your current state but even I don't know which songs you have stuck in your head

🤔

damn I gotta think of another set now :D

also I send you like REGULAR updates about my current state how the fuck am I supposed to lie-anyways.

two truths, one lie.

I finally, LABORIOUSLY, (is that a word idk if its a word im making it a word) figured out majority of the scenes for the amv

my head has been playing a weird mashup of the new Aot opening, We Don't Talk About Bruno and that one "I am in misery-i save d*ck by giving it cpr" audio on repeat.

I have a sudden urge to buy more pretty rings since I woke up today

I hate you. And yes.

HI I HAVE A BSD THEORY DO YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT IT IS @akuutaguava @glittercrashhh @panic-at-the-gender @boombboi @11nolongerhuman @elvearryn @chuuy-a @akutacowa @flower-of-darkness @adultkiddo @prued-crime @ginnyweasley16 @existential-dread-in-the-am @lillybet-the-overlord @saintsprotecttheghoul @thebgcharacter @rirk-ke @yukiko-otaku @its-a-journal-of-ideals @jas-sea @tainted--sorrow @dusted-star @snow-bloss0m @qu-ilinn @mrsdazais-blog @bungoustraypups @noticemeakusenpai @the-walls-have-many-ears @galacticfairytheweeb @jessbeinme15 @alexanderthepatrochillestrash @confusedinsominiac yes i tagged the entire discord server that I were showing up in that suggestions bar thingy and what about it well too bad if you don't you're getting it

Special credits to @fruitpunchsamurai16 for making it devolve into angst WHICH IT INITIALLY WAS NOT-majorly-

Ok so one ADA member is to be switched over to the PM on exchange for their help as per the deal Mori and Fukuzawa made and everyone except Yosano is up for the taking yes??

Now the OBVIOUS pick is Dazai. Because duh Mori has literally been obsessed with getting him back for ages. But i feel like a. It's too obvious and b. Mori wouldn't want to get Dazai to his side like this because he knows there's a full chance Dazai will find some way to betray WHILE upholding the deal. So he's out for now and in regards to this theory.

Next some might think Atsushi because MC right?? But that's a clear and resounding no cuz while Atsushi HAS been important in the general ongoings in Yokohama and been central to the conflicts, he HIMSELF possesses no real value for Mori and no power or ability that he can exploit because Atsushi isn't the strongest one out there in the first place (not consistently anyways) and he doesn't have any fears Mori can exploit and manipulate him with as he doesn't particularly FEAR his own death like yea he would PREFER to live but he's willing to die to save others and then there's the ADA but he [Atsushi] knows they can hold their own so yeah Atsushi's out as well.

Some might think Kyouka is an option and again no because she already betrayed them once on her own and Mori again cannot exploit her enough and doesn't particularly have a use for her since he already has the same-ish ability in his possession through Kouyou.

Now we're in likely to happen scenarios.

The next most viable is Kunikida for obvious reasons if you think about it. He's an important member of the Agency, the second in command, the one who keeps them all organised and functional on a day to day basis and an important pillar that supports Fukuzawa and the entire ADA. If taken away it would be a huge blow to all of them and just yeah it would be bad.

Now the next one (which this entire theory centered around originally) is one that would seem random but just hear me out ok.

NAOMI. Think about it, Tanizaki has a very powerful ability specially as a stealth operative and its an amazing weapon in fights as well. If Naomi was taken Tanizaki would protest it, he'd stand up against the President and he would most likely even try to infiltrate the Port Mafia HQ to get her and run away but obviously he would get caught if he tried that (as Yuki @fruitpunchsamurai16 pointed out yes he took out the Black Lizard on his own but in all fairness the Agency takes them out routinely it's part of both parties' daily schedules at this point and also Chuuya would mop the floor with him regardless of whether his ability is at an all time best but whatever.) And as we all know Tanizaki would rain hellfire on earth to protect Naomi so after all the rebelling eventually the end result would be him willing to do anything to protect Naomi and there you go ONE SHINY PORT MAFIA SPY IN THE ARMED DETECTIVE AGENCY!!!!!

Anyways this was SUPPOSED to be it but Yuki tried to get back at me and suggested what if Fukuzawa gets picked (which is also possible) so everything now is copied from whatsapp:

Yuki: Fine I'll do it myself. Fukuzawa's skill is invaluable to make him the leader of a squad, maybe of strong but unpredictable ability users, because he can make it so they can control their abilities. He's also a great leader and a capable swordsman, a good tactician, and inspires loyalty. Plus he's the kind of guy who'd stick to his word, so if Mori made him join he wouldn't do anything to escape the agreement, even if he's reluctant. And imagine the horror of the ada having to fight against their collective dad. And obviously m*ri would have a blast making one of his greatest enemies work for him.

Me *sad and kinda mad for the angst*: (you wanna play this game-) Hey and imagine Natsume (Natsuma??) sensei seeing Fukuzawa in this state and lamenting ever taking those two under his wing and bringing them together. And Fukuzawa having to regress to his White Wolf days and assassinate people again. And Mori having a blast. And then eventually imagine Fukuzawa having to go up against the ADA and while it would be heartbreaking for everyone, imagine the Ranpo and Fukuzawa encounter and despite Ranpo and everyone wanting to believe he's still good Mori has made him do so much he's started to like dissociate or something to cope. So the person they see isn't the same President they knew. And then there's a lot of angst.

So yeah there y'all go i also have a short but sad Dazai backstory theory but yeah

The Magic Trick You Didn’t See: Being An Analysis of Good Omens Season 2

(or: Neil Gaiman, Your Brain is Gorgeous But I Have Cracked Your Sneaky Little Code And Have You Dead To Rights*) (*Maybe)

***

Soooooo I just spent the last 48 hours having a BREATHTAKING GALAXY BRAIN EPIPHANY about Good Omens Season 2 and feverishly writing a fuckin16,000 word essay about the incredible magic trick that @neil-gaiman pulled off. 

Yes, it’s long, but I PROMISE your brains will explode. Do you want to know how magic works? Do you want to know what Metatron’s deal is (I’m like 99% sure of this and it’s EXTREMELY FUCKING GOOD)? Do you want to know about the Mystery of the Vanishing Eccles Cakes and the big fat beautiful clue I found in the opening credits? Do you go through the whole inventory of Chekov’s Firearm & Heavy Artillery Discount Warehouse? 

Here is the essay, go read it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/193IXS11XN46lziHRb6eUpM17yK0BQkRqke1Wh64A_e0/ When ur done u can tell me I’m an insane crackpot, and u know what, i won’t even be offended

In case you don’t know whether you want to bother reading the whole enormous thing on google docs, I’ve put the first couple sections of it under the cut. JUST TRUST ME OKAY, HEAR ME OUT, THIS IS VERY EXTREMELY COOL, NEIL IS GOOD AT HIS JOB–

Keep reading

"filler" is so misused bc anime filler is a really specific phenomenon where the animators can't fill their allotted episode count with material from the manga so they invent side stories or pad existing plots out. if something isn't an anime that was adapted from a manga it literally can't have that kind of filler. then people start to apply the concept to simply "episodes of a show that don't move the plot forward" and I don't even know why that's a problem bc if done well theres nothing wrong with those. having episodes with low stakes makes the ones with high stakes more impactful, and breathing room between major developments makes them more exciting when they do happen. some people seem to have this idea that filler = boring, plot = good, and I wish they would lose that mindset
