I love soft Sasuke and I believe there should be more of that side of him showcased (my boi's had enough trauma)
I wish we could have seen more of Sasuke's redemption arc and especially the bonds he had to restore (and deepen) with Sakura and Kakashi (not to mention Naruto bc he already has a really deep bond with him).

I always end up drawing them whenever I’m testing out brushes
You know
I don't have a lot positive to say about the re-staged version of the ALW musical.
But I will admit I do kind of like the fact that Raoul barges into Christine's dressing room as she's undressing.
I like this because, on the surface its very ha ha, so awkward uwu, but it also highlights how very scandalous this very action is.
In 19th century theatre culture (especially in France) there's only one reason a man (the patron of the Opera, who is the main financial backer of the establishment) goes into a singer's dressing room with a bottle of champagne. Whether that is Raoul's intention doesn't matter: he's a man of society, he's the responsible one here, or he should be.
But setting that aside, this really makes me think about how Raoul is never thinking about Christine in a circumspect fashion. He is not thinking about the fact that this is a private area he is entering uninvited--a private area that is private for the very specific reason: at any point, Christine could very well be naked or otherwise in a state of vulnerability and/or undress behind that door. He does not knock, or announce himself. He either is not thinking about this or does not care. Both are bad.
(And yes I am conscious of the fact that Christine is not only undressing, but undressing in front of the mirror; the mirror that Erik is, in all likelihood, hiding behind, even as she does so).
To Raoul, as much as (perhaps even more so than) to Erik, Christine is an object. An object to be, by turns, admired, pitied, placated and protected.
Perhaps I find this so interesting because in the book, Raoul is shown to invade the sanctum samctorum of Christine's dressing room without her knowledge or consent several times.
"When you were pitying him the other night, the night of the masked ball. When you came into your dressing room, didn't you say 'Poor Erik'? Well Christine, there was Poor Raoul who overheard you!"
"That is the second time you have listened at my door, M. de Chagny!"
"I was not at your door! I was in the dressing room! In your boudoir, mademoiselle!"
An interesting contrast to Erik, who, in spite of abducting Christine, holding her against her will etc. always knocks three times on her door before entering her bedroom in the house by the lake, and gives her his word that in that apartment and in her dressing room she is assured of privacy from him.
"How can you believe yourself safer here in the theatre?" Raoul asked. "If you can hear him through the walls, then he can certainly hear us."
"No. He gave me his word that he would not be behind the walls of my dressing room again, and I trust Erik's word. My dressing room and my room in the house by the lake are mine exclusively, and are sacred to him.
Also very interesting to me is that on my fourth read of various English translations of the book [1911, 1911 restored, 1990 Lowell Bair, and 1996 Leonard Wolf] there is never any indication that I've noticed that Christine's mirror is two-way glass. It does not slide to the side as depicted in movies/ the musical. The mirror is built into the wall itself and turns with the wall on a pivot like a revolving door. There is never any mention of him looking at her through the mirror, only listening and speaking to her through her walls.
Not sure if I reblogged this before but this feels so IMPORTANT to ALL Phantom fans.
Not only does this help show why so many people prefer Erik of Raoul, even unconsciously, but why so many people DON'T like Raoul. He KNOWS better. Erik MIGHT but probably not entirely. YET her space, her privacy is protected by Erik in the novel while Raoul invades it twice.
Now this is not true of ALL Phantoms and Raouls, but I feel like this does explain a lot of fans like myself.
This isn't saying that Erik is in the right, NO, far from it. But he does give Christine more respect than Raoul. In all honesty, it would have been great if she choose neither. OR gave Raoul what-for or Raoul learned from his mistakes like Erik kinda does... kinda...
Yes I dislike Raoul but not in a "he's the devil and Erik did nothing wrong" way. But in a "his fans excuse his terrible actions and shitty attitude while accusing anyone that sympathizes with Erik of 'defending abuse', plus Raoul's status in life makes his entitled self even worse and more irritating, at least in Erik's context he had a miserable life that don't excuse his desperate actions but make them understandable" way. But honestly I'm tired of explaining this.
Important: in the book the Daroga points out that Erik could not see but only HEAR Christine through the Mirror.

See a happy couple when walking in the street🥰
How was the opera? Was it good? Hope there were no disastrous chandeliers crashing
Okay but actually can you imagine being a guy in the audience at the opera house, and then an evil ghost interrupts the show and kills someone? There is a crowd full of people who will never have the context to understand what the fuck happened. You’re like visiting relatives from out of town, so obviously you go to the theater, and there’s this new musical showing you’ve never heard of, and then during one of the first numbers, the lead actress gets kidnapped on stage mid-song.
Like imagine if you were attending a touring performance of Shrek The Musical, and you find out halfway through it’s a failed sting operation to catch a serial killer who appears on stage disguised as Shrek. Do you think you can get your ticket refunded
Now that's good but I remember correctly that's not how it goes down so let me correct this to the best of my half-remembered ability.
You AREN'T seeing Shrek, you're seeing Shronk: Some Guy's Shrek Fanfiction Opera. You meet up with one of the producers and they say that yeah it was written by a serial killer who lives in the sewers but his music is SUPER good so we're doing it. Then halfway through Shronk is switched out for another actor and it's the serial killer but the wild thing is he sings BETTER than the first guy? And it's clearly a different guy but they're just going for it but then the operation goes off and he kidnaps the lead actress and everyone runs away and now you're pissed because you were kind of invested in the story of Shronk but because this was a world première show written by a guy who was just chased off stage giggling like a giddy schoolgirl you'll never know how it ends.
God if you got invested in the plot of the phantom’s opera, you’re definitely shit out of luck, aren’t you? They are Not restaging that
I think you answered this question 3 to 4 years ago but I wanted to get an update. Do you have any funny POTO gifs you can share?
I feel like not really, I haven't made a whole lot of gifs the last few years. (What can I say, work has been tiring.) But here are a few that I thought were halfway funny I guess.
