THIS SHOW IS SO PURE!
Itâs worth noting that Kenneth spent the entire episode making the game (and the subsequent fight) as inclusive as possible for JJ and his disabled friends (all of whom were played by disabled actors/actresses).
BONUS:
Bonus #2
Of course I had to show the best part:
I realised this video isnât available on mobile so hereâs a tumblr version.
If you want to watch it at full quality you can find it here on youtube.
I thought this was gonna be a funny compilation of people getting smacked around but this was amazing, holy god
Perfectly timed AMVs should count as a kink.Â
Iâve got goosebumps and tears in my eyes this was beautiful. This should be the official trailer of all of RWBY

Why Magical Girls Are Never Attacked During A Tranformation
As some of you might already have guessed, Iâm a fan of Japanese girl idols. One of the many, many idol groups in existence today in Japan is NMB48, a Osaka-based spin-off group of the (in)famous AKB48. NMB has a weekly show thatâs surprisingly entertaining as well as educational called NMB to Manabu-kun, in which the members of NMB and a few comedians listen to guest lectures by experts in various fields.
Back on May 15th, the theme of the episode was pataphysics/the science of sci-fi. One of the topics of the lecture held by university professor Yanagita Rikao was the age-old question of âWHY ARE MAGICAL GIRLS NEVER ATTACKED WHILE TRANSFORMING???â
This was his answer, based on the magical girl series Futari wa Pretty Cure.
Question: The transformation scenes in Pretty Cure are very long, so why donât the bad guys attack the girls in the meantime?
âEven when I was little, I was thinking âHey! Attack them now!ââ
âI found this odd as well, so I watched the transformation scene many times. And what I noticed is, when the Pretty Cures yell âDual Aurora Wave!â and transform, a rainbow-colored column of light shoots up from the ground, going BOOM!â
âAnd then the Pretty Cures levitate, and go up into the air. Based on this, I believe the protagonists of Pretty Cure are being held up in the air by the power of light.â
âWhen we think of light, we usually think it heats up things or lights up things. But in reality, light has the power to hold up things as well.â
âWhen the sun is beating down on us in the summer, the human body is being pressed downwards by the sun beams with a force of 2/100,000g.â
âBut this is only about a one-hundred of the weight of a mosquito, so no matter how hot it is, we donât feel that sunlight is heavy.â
âSo that means the light holding them up must be extremely strong. If we assume that the two Pretty Cures each weigh about 45kg and do some calculationsâŠâ
âIt means the light during the transformation must have the energy of 2,100,000,000kW per 1m2.â
"While the entirety of power that Japan is capable of generating is only 100,000,000kW.â
"So theyâre using 21 TIMES the amount of energy the whole of Japan can generate.â
"So what would happen if a bad guy jumped in to try to sabotage their transformation?â
âHe would EVAPORATE INSTANTLY.â
âDEATH AWAITS ANYONE WHO DARES TO DISRUPT A PRETTY CURE TRANSFORMATION.â
"So this means the best thing to do would be to transform close to any bad guys.â
âYes. They are the strongest while they transform, and are practically invincible.â
When you apply science to magical girls, you find out just how strong and horrifying they really would be.
Soft Touches
Commissioned by @meme-aestheticc! Soft Renora is my faveâŠ
rwby makes me want to cry so bad. imagine being created with the budget of a nickel and two toothpicks. the map of the region was a stain on a napkin. the creator wrote out to the ninth volume but died before the last of the third volume. but his friends kept the show going, kept true to what he wrote. the show survived the shutdown of the parent company. had crossover movies with wb and was dropped by them as well. got picked up by yet another studio. has been in hiatus hell for 3 years but is confirmed to continue. this is insane and unheard of for this type of show. also the core message of the show is to not give up, to keep going even when the going gets tough, never give up. rwby is not giving up. rwby, monty, you will always be famous <3

Thereâs something unhinged in her eyes that I had to pause the gifs to see it properly
Vampires are vampires!
watching game of thrones and this was considered a historically accurate portrayal of steppe nomads??? the faux leather strapless crops and faux leather yoga pants?????
one thing this show clearly doesnât get, which a lot of modern portrayals of premodern times donât seem to get, is that in a preindustrial society where literally everything is handmade, people preferred (and prefer!) to take a little longer to make things beautiful. if youâre personally spinning and weaving and stitching every inch your new coat, you might as well take an extra afternoon to dye the fibers a really lovely yellow with some onion scraps, and spend a little longer to embroider on a nice pattern. if youâre personally carving every angle of every chair in your house, you may as well slow down and carve them with a beautiful and culturally significant design, especially if you know your great-grandchildren will be sitting in them. in a hyperconsumerist industrial society itâs expected that you just buy what you can afford and settle for however beautiful or ugly the thing happens to be, but it wasnât always that way. the vast majority of people in the premodern worldâmen and women, rich and poorâwere hobbyist artists, and they dressed in and sat on and slept under and smoked with and ate out of their and their ancestorsâ canvases every day
NO THIS LEGIT MADE ME SO MAD.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT REAL STEPPE NOMADS FUCKING WORE???
HERE'S THE FUCKING REFERENCES I CREATED FOR A XIONGNU-INSPIRED DND CHARACTER COMMISSION. AND THAT WAS SOMEHOW MORE RESEARCH THAN GRR MARTIN AND HBO COULD BE PISSED DOING.
vs
LOOK AT THE FUCKING ARTESTY. THE CRAFTSMANSHIP. THE EMBROIDERY.
One thing I don't see discussed enough about game of thrones is the blatant orientialism. hey quick question, why are the real cultures you were "inspired by" portrayed as basically human-orcs? 1) why are nomadic societies automatically portrayed as being incapable of valuing or producing sophisticated clothes, and why is that costuming directly linked to their "bloodthirsty" and "warlike" natures? did you know their IRL counterparts the xiongnu/jurchens/mongols/hu people LOVED the fancy silks produced by the han chinese. not only was this a key part of diplomacy between the two nations. (surprise! they were not constantly at war, because steppe nomads were not bloodthristy monsters who loved death, but real people engaged in resource competition and territory control). it was also part of the internal politics of steppe culture, e.g., who was favoured by the leader and how valuable gifts were distributed among the nobility. but noooo that would mean thinking of them as real people motivated by complicated things like politics, status and culture within their tribes! and who would watch a show about people doing that? -_- 2) why do their societies revolve around killing and conquest, and have no love for intellectual or artistic pursuits? historically, genghis khan, kublai khan, ect, valued scholars and did everything they could to patronise/kidnap/poach huge numbers of them, and this was key to their tactical success! han chinese engineers were captured, and used to build siege engines to take down the great wall! that portrait of kublai khan you see up there was drawn by the nepalese artist araniko, a child prodigy who was part of the khan's court. does khal drogo have a flock of artists following him around, propagandising his greatness to the world, so everyone knows that he is a man of culture and his rule has legitimacy? no, he burns down villages for fun? cool. cool cool.
3) why are the dothraki portrayed as lawless brigands who are incapable of governing their captured territory, when the mongol-led yuan dynasty managed to conquer and rule over china, and genghis khan was responsible for expanding the silk road, and enforcing such effective law and order over it that it resulted in the pax mongolica, and increased trade between the east and west? is it because they "don't wanna?"' why? are they a monolith? why would they throw away the advantages of all that trade control? are they just "intrinsically incapable of it?" would you care to expand on that?
