best storylines are the ones where the wildest most off-the-wall shit occurs, one thing after another, unrelenting, and then at the end you realize it’s been happening over the course of like.. just a week. everyone’s been having a HELL of a week in that universe. that shit was happening on a thursday. of all days.

when you think about it, retsnom and killing game had Darumi make moves on Eito, Tsubasa and Hiruko like she really did steal all his bitches

[meear]

eitaku is incredibly beabato/lambdabern coded and the Multiple Eitos route makes it so obvious. "it wouldnt be a fair challenge if I lied. i want to see you suffer and struggle within the rules I've created" pack it up Yasu

[meear]

"my challenge to you is a test of endurance" pack it up satoko

and the way he keeps snapping his fingers is satorika btw. I've read the CoA nozokura fistfight, you can't make me believe the writer wasn't gousotsu-pilled

Kodaka does not care whatsoever about the idea of a cured Eito. Gives a one sentence generic ‘he’d be nice’ answer THREE TIMES IN A ROW. This is kind of funny.

‘why is Takumi an ableist asshole in CoA’

‘i don’t know man i didn’t write it. he’s not an ableist asshole in the routes i wrote’

[meear]

I love that Kodaka dgaf about a cured Eito but him not answering the question about what Aotsuki thought in COA is so frustrating I need an exact 10-page essay dissecting his feelings in excruciating details

my main issues with kg are

oyama can’t write tsubasa

oyama can’t write takumi

oyama can’t write het relationships

oyama can’t write nozomi post-arc

oyama can’t write like anyone except for darumi and yugamu and sometimes hiruko

and my main pros of kg are

he tried to write a polycule ok

he’s really fucking good at writing yuri

eva/nozomi arc was good was while it was happening

darumi was so deeply compelling and it made me so fucking mad she got sidelined for the most boring heterosexual relationship of all time

oyama can write eito and it shows.

he also locked onto nozomi having a Complex about her mother but just couldn’t get into the other aspects of her character, whereas other routes have the opposite problem where they ignore her mother completely

ENDING WHERE SHION SURVIVES LETS GOOOO BABY

funniest character in the game and it's not close

[mistystarshine]

hi! i know you're currently doing the positive fandom asks and this is kind of the opposite of that, but i really wanted to ask, what it is in particular you don't like about CSM's second saga? i feel vaguely disdatisfied with both pacing and characters of it myself, which keeps me uninvested, but Orc can only identify the fact it FEELS like things just happen for no reason, not the actual causes of why :( and after my first anon you said it broke "the implicit promise" of part 1, and i would really like to hear more about what you meant by that!

So, apart from not being invested in any of the new characters invested beyond Asa and Yoru, who I feel ended up being a lot of wasted potential?

We're repeating Denji's emotional beats from part one, where he looses everything but gets back up and keeps fighting. It's the same thing we already went through in the final arc. However...

Now that he's lost everything AGAIN and Fujimoto's back on his absolutely anyone can die vibe, but with far less character development, there's no reason for us to get invested in anything Denji might be fighting for. In large part because...

He shouldn't have killed Nayuta. She marked a change to the cycle of violence that was the Control Devil. Now it's... just going to keep going, I guess? Additionally, it nullifies the big emotional beat at the end of part one. Nayuta dies, Denji backslides, it was all for nothing. That's the thing that made me stop writing for part one, and with it DYW; it took something I had loved so much and made it feel so incredibly empty. The only reason I think I may be able to go back to DYW is because the setting is so different.

On that note. If anyone reading this misses my Chainsaw Man fics, please consider reading Control, War, Change. I know it's not the characters you want, but it's a Chainsaw Man setting and very much uses to emotions, tones, and themes of my old CSM fics. Also, I intentionally wrote it in a way where you can understand it without any prior familiarity with Hazbin, just like Tokyo Ghoul and DYW.

The Reze Arc movie was so good. I'm just obsessed with the whole rodent metaphor

I love how the story is well-rounded and self-contained enough that you could definitely enjoy the movie without any prior knowledge of csm. Themes are introduced and resolved with proper closure just like in any other "regular" movie (as in, movies that aren't just the adaptation of a few chapters in a larger manga series) and this format works really well for the story

In a world where the rest of the manga doesn't exist, this story could easily make for a really good stand-alone novel focusing on Denji and Reze. You'd need to write in some of the early chapters too to provide context about the setting and Denji's life but it'd totally work. The novel ends with Makima wrapping up the themes of the story before killing Reze, and a description of the city landscape. There's a girl looking at the countryside on the cover. The title is "The Hamster". A third-person narrator describes Angel's lingerie for an uncomfortable amount of time. Best-selling novel for real

But that'd also mean Power's character wouldn't need to exist and I really can't have that

I can't believe Baley talked so much shit about Gladia because she fucked a robot, before proceeding to spend an entire novel telling us about how he very clearly wants to fuck a robot

[meear]

Like

"i'm very sad about how daneel is only nice to me because he's been programmed to and I'm going to make it Gladia's problem. I'm going to insist that Jander's feelings are fake and he's only pleasing her because he has to. For no reason at all"

"Gladia is totally ashamed of her feelings and I can even elaborate in detail about the shame she feels and how that influenced her actions because i'm a bit of an empath myself, not because i'm projecting or anything"

this is so much weirder than just fucking the damn robot and I wish he'd just do it and move on. Gladia is not the freaky one here i'm sorry

funny meme right? well then get ready for

[nightmanatee]

imagine you were a TIME TRAVELER and you were in love with a BLUE HAIRED GIRL and you got to see a PARALLEL TIMELINE where the two of you were TOGETHER and you wished you could STAY IN THAT MOMENT FOREVER and then you kept coming BACK IN TIME to SAVE HER and she STILL DIES in the end.

[meear]

Mind you, looking at the tags OP apparently wasn't even talking about Higurashi. This just fits two other unrelated fandoms for some reason. and I still thought it was about Satoko. this is LITERALLY Satoko

Daneel and Elijah could do "28 stab wounds" but Connor and Hank could never do "Nevertheless bound by friendship. Do not, for your own sake, test the force of our love.”
