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
History Will Say They Were Roommates
CRUNCHYROLL?!
i knew haolin would come in clutch
just watched the first ep of to be hero x new blorbo is going THRU it
i can't stop thinking about it...
...so obviously i made it myself
my pitch for why Wanderer and Furina should be friends (and that they should meet through an interlude quest like Itto and Xiao)
"viewed as flawed for being too human" vs "viewed as perfect due to being human". (aka false god trauma yknow.)
they both wear blue (blue besties!!!)
half of their dialogue would be trying to say they're better than the other, but neither of them actually believe that
furina loves sweets. wanderer hates sweets. battle to the death.
in one of her character lines, furina says she loves to surf, so furina teaching the wanderer how to surf would be the funniest fucking thing ever and i will not take any arguments on this
BOTH OF THEM HAVE WHOLE THINGS INVOLVING CRYING??? FURINA'S PROPHECY VS WANDERER CRYING WHEN RAIDEN TRIED PUTTING THE GNOSIS IN HIM??? (this ones in all caps cause i realized it while making this post)
the only two characters to have received a vision on screen should get to be besties methinks
furina having to learn how to act inhuman vs the wanderer having to learn how to act human
"why did you give your hydro pets such complicated names" "I- you- well- uh- YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE A NAME" "HEY-"
i just think it'd be both funny and angsty and bro thats the perfect combination when it comes to media. they are THE gap between a tragedy and comedy
Maybe they weren't mistakes, maybe they were on purpose, maybe they were crimes...
