why must my analysis be supported by “textual evidence”? is it not enough for my arguments to be sexy and unhinged??

@eisenblade replied to your post “(( You know what’s unironically The Best? The fact that everyone...”

S*meon is Very Specifically Written to be despised so like fjdhfejf it makes SENSE.... Mattias has a far more sympathetic/probably even pitiable?? background. And Darius, Miguel, and Yvon are just cowards. And Werner is. Well actually Werner is Very Close but he's not like as. Physically Repulsive, he's just got tunnel vision for attaining more and more power.

(( YEAH. The writers very obviously wanted to make a character that was reprehensible and irredeemable, and accomplished this beautifully! Why I love how much people hate him, though, is because fandoms have a bad habit of downplaying the wrongdoings of attractive characters (and I’m saying this as someone who generally ADORES villains), but by some stroke of luck, the 8path fandom seems to overwhelmingly have their heads screwed on straight and don’t make excuses for him. It’s refreshing! He’s awful and should be hated. ))

(( You know what’s unironically The Best? The fact that everyone (myself included) hates Simeon more than basically any other Octopath character. ))

eisenblade‌:

Well regardless of if Simeon runs or not, Olberic certainly is. Right towards him, at a very high speed.

       All right, that’s enough for Simeon to turn and take off sprinting.

eisenblade‌:

“ I am going to enjoy cutting out that tongue of yours. ”

Oh, he has definitely drawn his blade already.

       ...He’s almost considering running this time.
