Tags to block for current obsessions (sorry)(I will not make side blogs)

One Piece: one piece (+arc name if applicable). I tag characters with full name if they have it though I’m inconsistent on whether I punctuate the D. Otherwise I use epithets. Otherwise I use name + one piece.

Other anime: anime (+ show name and common shortenings)

CDramas: cdrama (+show name)

Lord of the Rings: Lotr

Star Wars: Star Wars (+relevant show, +spoilers if applicable)

Most things will follow a similar pattern. I'll try to keep this updated

it’s simple: when I like an adaptation, everyone complaining about changes to the text is a whiny baby who needs to get over themselves and accept that sometimes you have to change the story to enrich the experience/work within the medium. when I don’t like an adaptation, it’s because nobody else understands the core themes of the original work and would be better off just creating a story independent of what they’re trying to adapt.

I don't remember finding fart jokes particularly funny even when I was a child.

quasi-normalcy

Five year old me, watching a movie with fart jokes: "Oh, how gauche. They're pandering to the lowest common denominator."

#that being said #i find them a lot funnier now

My library finally got All Hail Chaos in so I can stop avoiding spoilers. So excited to read it on my trip! I think it helped that I went to check out Long Live Evil again, and the librarian was like "oh wow this looks fun" and I was like "YES IT IS FUN IN FACT THERE IS A SEQUEL WHICH I MAY HAVE REQUESTED TWICE NOW FOR THE LIBRARY TO GET" and a week later they got it!

I love libraries.

They say that sudden, intense cravings for very specific foods are usually a sign of a vitamin deficiency. If so, that I'm presently making myself french toast, scrambled eggs, and a bacon and cheese sandwich at 11:45 PM must mean the vitamin I'm missing is grease.

Not to put too fine a point on it but Fat is a macronutrient. Like you need a lot more mass of it every day than all the vitamins combined. Like haha funny post but no really Fat is a nutrient yes your body is craving vitamin grease.

"dni if you engage with irredeemable media! dni to kill a mockingbird stans" ok well CLEARLY you have never read to kill a mockingbird if you think it's irredeemable media and also having a book that was published in 1960 on your dni stan list is kinda ridiculous actually

snaxle-deactivated20260531

i literally do not think any of you have ever read a book published before the 2000s before in your entire life

#can somwone pleasw provide context to whatever the fuck op is referring to

s-a-blotsky

You really buried the lede by only mentioning To Kill a Mockingbird

#it's the specification that they're referring to chowder the cartoon for me and not ya know #chowder the food #for real tho I don't know most of the shows but how did those books get on there???#this is what scares me as an author too because there is a subset of people #who genuinely think that because bad things are depicted in a book #EVEN IF THEY ARE PAINTED IN A NEGATIVE LIGHT #that it means the author/book is 'irredeemable'#i hope that dni is a joke

Guys I forgot Cox Hendry existed. I clearly haven't watched any of the DMBJs in a while lol.

Also, Joseph Zeng is playing Wu Laogou differently than Wu Xie for sure (more overconfident and comedic), and I have to say Wu Xie's struggles become a lot more realistic realizing he was going off of this man's journals. Good grief WLG.

#i'm having fun #cdrama #mystic nine

So in Mystic Nine, Zhang Qishan and Wu Laogou are dealing with the 'three parasties' apparently. And it's fun and action-packed, but I would like to skip past the ones that are interested in beauty and crave food, and get to the one that 'stirs up the heart fire' 😂 (it would make for more compelling television, see).

(I don't know much of anything about chinese medicine and I'm assuming it's not what it sounds like, given translations and all that, but it sure sounds suggestive in english)

If we’re mutuals we’re comrades and I wish destruction on your enemies

Ok I am now watching the Sk8 extra part and the Karuta episode was so cute! But I thought Miya and Reki's little sister were saying that Reki and Langa had to carry them on piggy back to the ice cream store (because if they don't go, then how else will they know if R & L actually did it?) But no. Reki and Langa of course piggy backed each other all the way.

Now I'm on the bit with Cherry and Joe in school and all I can say is I feel horrible for all of their classmates. And their teacher - holy shit she tolerated it for so long. Also I thought they got into skating a lot earlier.

OI WHY DIDN'T ADAM IMAGINE A DOG FOR REKI! HE IMAGINED ONE FOR EVERYONE ELSE EVEN SHADOW. I'm not sure when the extra part is supposed to take place but I think this part at least was after the events of the season and SIR ONLY ONE NON-LANGA PERSON CAME CLOSE TO BEATING YOU AND IT WAS MY BOY REKI YOU GIVE HIM RESPECT RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.

Also someone get Shadow a date with that manager lady this is getting tragic.

#sk8 anime #sk8 the infinity #anime #also where the fuck is s2 it was announced 4 years ago

WE ARE NOT CALLING THIS A TECHNIQUE!!!!

OMG at this point Reki has taken a giant cliff, proven he can re-create the love hug which requires a ton of skill, and was smart enough to check the fucking weather report.

Meanwhile Adam has picked up his skateboard and run half the way and is now preparing to use Reki's head as a baseball after having already been super violent. I don't give a fuck if Reki stabs him at this point like Adam does not play fair and it's beyond belief that everyone takes him seriously as a skater when his wins all rely on him punching/hitting people.

Edit: Reki lost by a hair. I will never love again.

#anime #sk8 the infinity #sk8 anime #ok have to see what happens now

I feel like the reason Langa is so good at getting so high up (and why Reki and others have trouble) is because in Langa's head, it's still snow that's below him waiting to cushion his fall. Whereas everyone else is super aware of the reality that it's concrete. Just a theory tho. I am a firm believer that if someone works hard enough they'll be able to do anything, so I think Reki will catch up one day if he sticks to it.

So I understand that the rules of the skateboarding beefs are uhhhh... nonexistent. After all, Shadow was throwing little mini bombs at his opponents in episode 1, but at least I can see how that might test the opponent's agility and ability to stay focused.

Adam just up and SMASHING Cherry in the face with his skateboard, however, seems like it should lead to some sort of disqualification, no? It doesn't exactly test who the better skater is. Like no wonder Adam is always sending people to the hospital if he turns the beefs from skating matches into fuckin WWE 'WITH A STEEL CHAIR' showcases. I could beat them all in a skateboarding competition too if I was allowed to just beat the shit out of them.

dixionduckling

I think what makes this kind of funny fanbase wise is I recall some people (especially back when it first released) did try to defend or pretend like ADAM doing this was fine. Those same people also got mad for what Reki does in a later race. I will not say what it is, since you appear to be on your first watch and I dunno if you made it to there just yet. But I think you’ll like it when you do and have a good laugh about it and enjoy it when you get there ! no shame or hate to the people who thought like that of course lol. anyway yeah I’ve watched the show twice now will be on my third watch sometime soon but the whole WWE with skateboards always made me think two things: 1. Okay that’s kind of funny but I don’t think skateboarding is this guy’s true calling nor the sport to work out his issues in and 2. Why is he called a good skater when he resorts to violence when he can’t even handle some ▇▇

ALSO a fun lil detail I noticed upon my second watch was the fact the adults are like the ones using underhanded methods. The kids? They’ve been using nothing but genuine tactics say what we might but Cherry and Joe do also have their underhanded methods. Those methods just usually don’t resort in sending someone to hospital lol

ANYWAY sorry about the tangent I did try to keep this spoiler free for you! If you ever need someone to talk about sk8 the infinity with if you lack anyone irl to do it with i’m a tag away and I will make time to talk about it.

pippin-pippout

It was spoiler free no worries! Yes it's my first watch through. Oh I can't wait to see what Reki does. Hope he gets to punch Adam. I also hope Adam's secretary guy gets to punch him.
