D.Attack on Tokyo Ghoul

My fandom obsessions are about as stable as I am so there’s a lot of different shit on here

genuinely i do think it's crazy how this show hit every single mark for no reason other than pure love of the game. like this wasn't a money grab and it didn't think it would be a big success, jacob just read a book he enjoyed and thought huh i think that would be a cool thing to make into a tv show. and then he brought on hudson and connor and they're fresh and passionate and not bogged down by the industry yet and they instantly became best friends and wanted to just have fun bringing these characters to life. and they didn't have a huge budget but they did the most with what they had and everybody took the show seriously and everybody took the book seriously. the cinematographer worked his magic. the music supervisor managed to snag a well-known queer hit and an up and coming new release and old school gems that have been around since the 2000s. it's canadian to the core, built from the ground up. it takes russians and the russian language seriously. it uses sex in such a specific, meaningful way that almost no other show has done thus far, and especially not in a queer context like this. they interlaced every episode with callbacks and parallelism and self-references. they didn't take themselves too seriously. they took everything so seriously. there is love and care baked into the core of this show and it's deeply queer and it doesn't shy away from the horrors of toxic masculinity and hockey culture but it is also, always, a story of joy and love and happiness. and on top of everything, it's almost word for word, the original source material from the book.

like damn it's no wonder this thing has made us all insufferable and become a huge fucking success! so few productions in hollywood are doing it like this!!!

the yellowjackets are in a deadbeat parent-off

[livedinthecastle]

everyone in yellowjackets is fucked up because they had to be cannibals in the woods except for callie who's fucked up because she didn't get to be a cannibal in the woods

Does it fucking kill you too? Not anymore.

The women in Physical Asia are absolute BEASTS. Every single one of them. I don’t think there’s a single woman who didn’t show up and didn’t stand their ground whether it be against a group or 1v1 against bigger opponents. They all came locked in and ready to fucking PLAY.

There’s this general perception in western culture that we Asian women are dainty and soft but this show highlights our women as anything but. They are competitive and have diverse sporting backgrounds. Their strengths. Their skills and abilities. All so strong. All so powerful and explosive. Not to mention the representation of different body types that’s beyond traditional representation of Asian women in popular media because fucking hell yeah we are made of tough stuff!

Just shows that fitness and strength doesn’t come in a singular moulding; we come in there’s different shapes and sizes

it never ever gets old when a man sees you carrying something big & heavy and they offer to help so you hand it off and they go "woah!!!! this is so heavy!!!!" in genuine shock revealing they just assumed you're weak and now they're stuck carrying it for you out of pride and they huff and puff all the way. important lesson for them.

[wizardarchetypes]

i'm not a sadist. i always say, "want me to take one side and we can carry it together," and they always say no even though they're visibly struggling. ok yay be my guest <3

back when I worked at a hardware store people would come in for concrete mix we sold in 50 pound bags (like 23 kg) and the cashier would ring them up then call over the speakers that there was a quikrete order. one of us had to go out to the concrete garage and meet the customer and load up all the bags into their vehicle and I always worked closing shift with this guy named Bob who had to be at least one thousand years old and he was so skinny and curled in on himself he reminded me of a Brian Froud illustration. and he would be like "let me get it. this isn't a job for a girl" and I was like, "well then who's job is it, because it aint a job for you either."

and he'd be like, "between the two of us?" as if the answer was obviously him

and we're standing there like this

ultimately the truth about frankenstein is that we are all grotesque amalgamations of the best and worst parts of everyone who came before us. and sometimes the people who are supposed to love us because of and in spite of this will not. and we can kill them with hammers for that. and i think that’s beautiful

[miseria-fortes-viros]

my brother in christ frankenstein is the title of the book

COUNTERPOINT

[miseria-fortes-viros]

[quacksmith]

Ah yes, Mary Shelley’s monster.

[miseria-fortes-viros]

no mary shelley is the name of the monster not the doctor

[villainessbian]

common misconception! mary shelley's monster was actually lord byron

Back with my darlings Ranwan :)

Took me long enough, but it's here!

[marisadrawing]

im on vol 4 and this has been the whole book so far

[sscarletvenus]

i love unrequited love, i love blind devotion, i love guard dogs. i love being desperately obsessed with the object of your affections. i love when devotion rots into cruelty, i love when love doesn't know any better, i love when love is ugly. i love defanging and declawing yourself just to be loved. i love when a character will wait for the next time they will be loved like a bird or a dog at their beloved’s door. i love when love is insanity and by the LORD do i love betting on losing dogs

Chu wanning is THE character ever. He's powerful, talented, and righteous. He seems perfect and put together. He's a hot mess. An absolute wreck. His room looks like a hurricane touched down in it. He regularly falls off his bed. He makes robots. He's a hazard in the kitchen aside from exactly one (1) dish. He has a resting bitch face but honestly is just socially anxious. His only friends are his students, his boss, and a little gremlin dragon he made (which can grow in size. And he can ride it. He rides a fucking dragon). He's gay. His taste in women is "female. alive." He has a terrible sugar addiction. He can drink you under the table several times over. He has sexy dreams about getting absolutely railed into next week by his beloved. He wants to be held gently and be called beautiful. He knows next to nothing abt sex. He stuck a candlestick up his ass. He once tried to remove his spiritual core by carving it out of his chest with a sword. He dragged his beloved up 3799 stairs while on the verge of death. He was carved from a block of magic wood. He traveled through time and space, creating an entirely new timeline to change both his own and his beloved's fates. He split apart his soul and shoved half of it into his beloved. He ran away when his beloved confessed to him. He's afraid of heights. He cannot handle anything even remotely spicy. He dies. He comes back to life after 5 years. He gambles. He's a man of the people. He won't hesitate to cut a bitch. Children are terrified of him. What else.
