#zim tag #hi everyone. i actually think abt iz daily i just have nothing to post sadly

CAN I JUST SAY THAT i fucking hate how like. while it was planned that invader zim was gonna have two protagonists- zim and dib- its always dib that gets more... development?

like. i love the show dont get me wrong. but it really irks me (no pun intended) that the crew stresses that zin and dib are equals, and yet dib is the one that actually has character development and nuance put into his actions. hes changed from the show and his relationship with his family have gotten better

with zim? its the OPPOSITE

hes always written off by crew members as "oh, zim? yeah he wont ever change." the Main Character is stagnant. while the comics make dib's life better, they make zim's worse. 777, zim's only friend, is now only helping him because he has his kids hostage. you used to be able to make the case that red was a little sympathetic towards zim, now him and purple are interchangeable assholes to the point where they SWITCH COLORS in issue 4. zim himself is more 2d and has more of a Cartoon Badguy role to dib's Plucky Young Hero and it really doesnt feel like theyre on equal ground anymore. it just feels like dib is the new protagonist, and the traditional Cartoon Good Guy, and zim is just a joke without the CORE TENANT OF HIS CHARACTER, that being that hes not stupid, just misguided.

and it really feels like the comics treat him like hes stupid and doesnt have a friend in the world or anyone that likes him even a LITTLE because who would ever like ZIM amirite?

#iz #zim #i agree and although i dont want him to change / undergo drastic char development #(along the lines of actually zim fights for earth now. actually dib fights for the irken empire now)#i want more exploration of zim’s motivations and character #a la what was given to dib in ETF... motivations re: his relationship with his dad and wanting to be seen and understood by the world #i think what i want is more exploration of zim’s feelings of inadequacy and needing to prove himself to superiors #because this kind of stuff is in the show bible iirc but its rarely explored #i think the comics ( the zimverse arc ) was a little good though for this #but yeah what i noticed also is that in the show zim feels like the protag and in etf dib feels like the protag #i feel theres a more balanced way to do this lol #this is smth i think in general but i think a lot of people (not tumblr ppl) move away from an alien pov bc its too difficult to handle #and when they do come to terms with it they usually try to take it down a notch & make it ‘human’#i think you really have to consider irken society and zims purpose in the greater scheme of things for the empire #because they do not function the way humans do. societally and culturally #i dont necessarily want to see him make friends but i want to see him try and understand what the concept of a friend is #and other human concepts that irkens (at least the ones that adhere to closely to irken values)would probably have a difficult time grasping #i think we all just forget why in the first place is zim trying to invade the earth lol and his motivations should be considered #i dont necessarily need to see growth bc i get that theyre supposed to just hate each other and not change but i want to see exploration of #why they are the way that they are

What gets me is, personally, I think its ooc for Zim to be murderous and violent, or at least it would take a lot for Zim to get to that point.

Zim has caused injury and death, but so far it’s been entirely unintentional.

He didn’t willingly kill Miyuki and Spork, they were killed by his creation that turned into a monster by pure accident.

He didn’t willingly kill his own people, he just doesn’t think of others outside of himself very often.

He destroys stuff and blows stuff up because he thinks that’ll gain him love and praise that he desperately wants, not understanding that Irkens are more specific and intentionally cruel with their destruction over destruction in general.

Zim is unintentionally dangerous, and I think that can be scarier than someone intentionally being dangerous.

(When Zim does specifically want to destroy something, he tries so hard he fails, which is why Earth is still around. But still, if Zim were to really dedicate himself to tearing someone/something down...I feel like that’d be terrifying. That’s why Irk both hates and fears Zim)

I just really like this scene of Zim’s antennae sensing something behind him before he notices it himself. It’s a really nice detail!

me thinking about ZiM and Duty Mode Gir’s exchange in “Gir Goes Crazy And Stuff” where ZiM says “You were my servant once, remember?” and Gir says “Yes. I Didn’t Like It.” and deciding to interpret that as Gir just not liking when ZiM treats him as lesser and wording it with so much contempt due to the way the Permanent Duty Mode is altering his personality, because it makes me too sad to imagine that Gir genuinely doesn’t ever like being around ZiM at all:

#iz eps #iz #AAAAA #zim #gir #nooooo wtfff #i just thought it meant like. he realizes that shoving chickens and donuts in his head actually feels bad
