Kitithcat - Mistakes Were Made And They Were In Space

if they ever made up

There are TWO men in Fontaine that have stolen my heart

Yeah it's Nuevillette and Wriothesley

BUT CAN YOU BLAME ME?????

yeah ok I was right, rewatched it and I enjoyed it much more the second go around

Hmmm ep 3 didn't hit as hard for me ngl. Like don't get me wrong, absolutely fucked how badly the public's perception can screw you over, poor man couldn't shit or sleep properly, that's some body horror right there. I like how this episode reinforced how you have to be careful with your image or stuff like that can happen, but also that was already shown pretty well with Moon only teleporting to Nice and Lin Ling developing OCD (or pre exising ocd getting worse idk). I guess it was showing the physical effects rather than powers and mental effects as well as commenting on toxic masculinity, but something about it just didn't really hit me.

Again though, something didn't feel right to me. Perhaps that was due to this feeling more like a stop gap between ep2 and ep4 as well as getting Nice/Lin Ling to the top ten. (but also like him not already being top ten didn't need to happen sooooo) Overall the episode did not feel bad, just not at the same level. Which I can't expect tbhx to be constantly going actually insane, so that's on me. (not a dis on the show, I just set the bar at Pluto after the first 2 episodes, need to bring that back down to like, maybe the moon, which is still insane, but i have faith) I also maybe just need to rewatch ep3, i could've missed a detail that would make me lose it. The facial expression on that one guy's face in the Firmman backstory segment was hilarious tho. 10/10 background character

I’m watching Splash (1984) which is a romcom about a guy who falls in love with a mermaid, and when she chooses a human name she chooses Madison and guy says “that’s not a real name, but alright” which seems to imply that Madison was not a name until at least the 80’s and all girls named Madison are actually named after the mermaid. thought you should know

i knew haolin would come in clutch

so uh, he's free now, but at what cost???

Lin still really needs to be set free from the actual mess he is in, my man did NOT sign up for any of this. I mean like literally he did but that's besides the point. How was dude supposed to know about Nice's boyfriend bestfriend?

I AM FIGURING THIS HELL SITE OUT

lord save me

Yeah I feel that a bit, definitely fast, no doubt about it. But it's just barely not jumping off into the deep end of crazy pacing though imo. I do hope the current pacing is just due to needing to establish some stuff before we get to the real meat of the story.

Also the chaotic pace of it all and it being confusing is probably how Lin feels about everything too. So maybe they're intentionally going for that rather than them wanting to rush to other stuff.

minor flaw with tbhx

to be hero x has stunning animation, captivating sound design, interesting characters, and fantastic fight choreography, but i feel the pacing is so fast that it can be a bit chaotic

it's hard not to get emotional whiplash at times. better pacing would really allow the emotional highs and lows of tbhx to hit with the intensity these moments deserve. i wish the writers would allow moments to breathe more or perhaps work on writing scene transitions with a bit more flow.

im definitely planning on investing my time into this show and im going to continue watching, but the pacing issues are sometimes hard to ignore. Part of me thinks these two episodes have been so quick just because the writers really want to speed to telling a later part of the story sooner. if so, i look forward to seeing the potential of this show's writing once it gets it's footing then.

I fucking love how it isn't even foreshadowing, they just beat us with a fucking stick and then punch us in the gut

i can't stop thinking about it...

...so obviously i made it myself
