When I first saw Tropic Thunder in the theater, an audio error during Jack Black's heroin withdrawal scene replaced all the dialogue with buzzing noises. For a minute or so I thought, "Yeah, that's probably what it feels like."

ROUND 2 — Match 23 of 138

Benedetto/Andrea Cavalcanti (The Count of Monte Cristo)

Problematic because: "this but with crimes" Propaganda: "imagine you're on trial and the prosecutor asked you why you killed a guy, and you turn to the prosecutor and say "I dunno, why did YOU kill a guy??" and then you pull out evidence that he did in fact try to kill a guy. same evidence proves that he's your dad. and that he was having an affair. and you do all that in a public court room."

vs. Madeline Usher (The Fall of the House of Usher)

Problematic because: "She's Roderick’s twin, Fortunato’s COO, and very much the brains behind a lot of the Usher empire’s colder decisions. She helps Roderick murder Rufus Griswold in 1979 by poisoning him with amontillado and walling him up alive inside Fortunato’s new building, then uses that to help clear the way for Roderick’s rise. That same night, she and Roderick accept Verna’s deal - wealth, power, and legal immunity, with the cost being that the entire Usher bloodline will die before the twins do. Roderick already has children at this point, so Madeline isn’t just gambling with some abstract future family. She knows there are actual kids attached to the bargain and still takes the deal. She’s also ruthless in the present in a way that’s quieter than Roderick’s big guilty confession but often just as ugly. She wants to push Fortunato into tech and AI, tries to position herself as CEO once Roderick’s illness makes him inconvenient, uses Lenore’s data as part of an AI consciousness project, and later convinces Roderick to overdose on Ligodone because she thinks his death might get her out of the bargain." Propaganda: "Madeline is awful, but I do think she’s the more interesting twin in a lot of ways because she understands the game earlier and more clearly than Roderick. Roderick spends so much time wanting to be loved, admired, forgiven, pitied. Madeline wants power, survival, control, and some version of immortality that doesn’t require anyone else’s approval. There’s something compelling about how little she bothers pretending she’s innocent. And honestly, part of me respects that she sees the family rot without dressing it up in sentiment. She knows Fortunato is a machine. She knows the Usher name is a transaction. She knows Verna’s bargain was a bargain, not a curse they randomly stumbled into. Her horror is that she keeps choosing the calculation anyway. She’s sharper than Roderick, which makes her worse in some ways, but it also makes her less pathetic."

Garak (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)

Problematic because: "worked for the space fascist lizard KGB" Propaganda: "there is truly so much going on with him. he was exiled from his home for mysterious reasons, he's gay, he kills people, they put a chip in his brain, at least 2 regimes want him dead, he is determined to escape exile and he wants to die but the twink doctor he's involved with won't let that happen. i don't want to spoil more than i already have"

vs. Kyubey (Puella Magi Madoka Magica)

Problematic because: "manipulating young girls into contracts that force them to kill monsters until they themselves turn into monsters" Propaganda: "This behavior was ultimately not based on any form of malice, as they supposedly have no emotion(considered a rare mental illness for their kind) and they needed to harvest human girls to stall out the heat death of the universe. Plus they're just this unkillable little freak that will just consume their corpse as soon as they get into a new vessel, just to bother one of the girls that they're talking to."

[kikmessenger]

sits on my own blog like it’s the edge of a lake wistfully

[kikmessenger]

skips a stone over a few posts

[ferrettaur]

So like an hour ago I just lear🪨︵︵ned that— what the fuck was that. Someone just skipped a rock across my post did you see that

[fishing-princess]

I just got a really really good idea for a visual gag that unfortunately only works in an animated artistic medium that uses chowder style static textures for clothes. And now I’m pissed off that I can’t find a series of words to write a description of the gag that would have any chance of working as a joke because it requires too much setup and the punchline wouldn’t be punchy in a text medium. (T ^ T)

[fishing-princess]

[In a Chowder style cartoon world where clothing uses static background textures]

Character A: *Accidentally spills something on her shirt and it leaves a stain*

*Looks around to see if anyone noticed.*

*Takes a few steps to the side, moving along the static background texture causing the stain to ‘slide’ away and not be visible anymore*

[later in the episode, a completely different scene with completely different framing]

Character A: *Walks along with the rest of the cast across the screen into the same spot on the screen where she was when she spilled on her shirt. The stain was on the same spot in the background texture this whole time she just happened to avoid it throughout the episode til now. This causes the stain to ‘slide’ onto her shirt again, but shes further from the ‘camera’ now so the stain covers way more of her shirt.*

Character B: *Points the stain out and laughs at her for managing to get such a huge stain on her clothes*

Character A: *Gets embarrassed and defensive saying it’s the shot composition’s fault*

Character C: *Looks up and scolds the animator for not doing the cast’s laundry between scenes*

Faceless animator from off screen: *Tries to make excuses about not having time and trying to meet the episode deadline*

Character C: *Crosses her arms and turns her head away, says she’s disappointed in them*

Offscreen animator’s giant hand: *Reluctantly grabs the static clothing texture and pulls it away*

Character A: *Her shirt clothing texture is replaced with blank white void. She gets embarrassed and tries to cover herself up as if she was naked*

[Cut to short live action sequence of the disembodied hand of the animator throwing the static texture cloth into the washing machine, adding stain remover and starting the machine.]

[Time passes. Cut to disembodied hand tapping its fingers impatiently right before the washing machine dings complete. The hand throws it in the dryer. Resumes tapping impatiently]

[Time Passes. Cut to disembodied hand seemingly being asleep, then the dryer dings waking them up. Hand takes texture out of the dryer. Starts bringing the texture back to the set.]

Character C, offscreen: *Shouts at the animator demanding they iron it too*

[Cut to disembodied hand frantically ironing the texture.]

[Cut back to animated scene with main cast still at the same scene. Character A is still embarrassed and trying to cover herself up. Character B is asleep and loudly cartoonishly snoring. Character C is looking up at where ‘the animator’ is, impatiently tapping her foot and scowling]

Disembodied Hand: *Frantically tries to put the texture back in place. Accidentally puts it on upside down.*

Character C, scowling: *Raises an eyebrow*

Disembodied hand: *Frantically rearranges the texture and finally gets it in place correctly*

Character C, eyebrow still raised: *Asks if they’re forgetting something*

Disembodied hand, ‘standing’ on the ‘ground’ of the scene with its middle and ring finger posed as legs and its pointer and pinky as arms: *Goes into dogeza pose and desperately apologizes*

Character C: *Accepts apology, but gives a threatening warning not to let it happen again*

Disembodied hand: *’Runs’ offscreen frantically*

[The episode resumes as if nothing happened. This gag is never repeated and is never addressed for the rest of the show’s running]

[the-real-seebs]

this is an excellent sight gag and i think you did a great job of communicating it

[problematic-character-tournament]

ROUND 2 — Match 20 of 138

Solas (Dragon Age)

Problematic because: "He's the man who joins the Inquisition as your quiet Fade expert, helps save the world, judges your chairs, maybe romances your Lavellan, and then reveals he’s actually Fen’Harel, the ancient elven figure who created the Veil in the first place. The Veil is the thing separating the physical world from the Fade, and making it tore the old elven world apart. Now he wants to remove it again, even though he knows doing that would destroy the world everyone currently lives in. “Sorry, your reality and lives are the mistake I need to fix” is a pretty wild position to take. He also gave his orb to Corypheus, expecting Corypheus to unlock it and die in the process, which instead leads to the Conclave explosion, the Breach in the sky, demons pouring into the world, and a lot of people dying because Solas thought he could control the outcome. Then there’s the lying, the spies inside the Inquisition, the way he walks away from people who trusted him, and the fact that Trespasser makes it very clear he still intends to go through with his plan. Cole and Solas’ dialogue also confirms that Felassan was his friend/agent and that Solas killed him after he failed to get the eluvian passphrase, which is one of those details that says a lot about how far Solas is willing to go when someone gets in the way of the larger goal." Propaganda: "He can be gentle with spirits, thoughtful with the Inquisitor, genuinely funny in that dry little way, and then you remember he’s also sitting on secrets that would make half the room draw weapons. I like him because he forces the question of whether regret means anything if you keep choosing harm anyway. He knows what he did. He knows what he’s about to do. He’s sad about it, which is interesting, but he is still doing it."

vs. Hornet (Hollow Knight: Silksong)

Problematic because: "racist towards flies :/" Propaganda: "hornet is genuinely the most well-written video game protagonist i have ever known who fully avoids the "blank slate" trope. she's written in such a way that anything you as the player can make her do makes sense as something she would do, but she still manages to feel like her own person in spite of that. there's some really clever ludonarrative resonance going on where in order to unlock the path to the true ending, where hornet starts to show character development away from pure pragmatism towards a hero who finds intrinsic value in helping others, you need to complete certain quests that you would only complete if you were genuinely invested in the setting and its characters. since hornet is the only returning character from the original hollow knight before this point, the player undergoes the process of learning to care about the inhabitants of pharloom in all the same ways that she does. there's other stuff i like about her too, but this is the main reason right now."

Who should advance?

ROUND 2 — Match 16 of 138

Byakuya Togami (Danganronpa)

Problematic because: "byakuya is what happens when a rich boy enters a murder game and decides the real tragedy is that everyone else is poor and annoying. he spends a lot of the first game treating the other trapped students like idiots, obstacles, or future corpses instead of people he should maybe cooperate with. like, everyone is locked in a school where the only way out is to kill someone and get away with it, and byakuya’s first instinct is still “interesting. i will now be unbearable.” the big obvious thing is chapter 2, where he messes with chihiro’s body/crime scene to make it look like the serial killer genocide jack did it, partly because he wants to test everyone and make the trial more interesting for himself. so yes, he sees a classmate dead and decides this is a fun little logic exercise. he also exposes toko’s secret in the trial, keeps using her obsession with him when it benefits him, and generally treats everyone’s fear and grief like it’s beneath him. he gets better later, but early-game byakuya is very much a human trust fund with glasses and no bedside manner." Propaganda: 1. "Byakuya is terrible at the start, but that’s what makes his arc fun. He walks into the killing game acting like he’s above everyone else, then has to slowly realise that being rich, clever, and smug doesn’t actually make him untouchable. I like that he doesn’t suddenly become nice in a fake way - he’s still rude, still arrogant, still Byakuya, but you can see him start taking the others more seriously and actually working with them instead of treating them like background characters in his personal survival story. He’s awful, but he’s useful awful, and sometimes that’s exactly what a cast needs." 2. "emotional range of a bank statement"

vs. Edelgard von Hresvelg (Fire Emblem: Three Houses)

Problematic because: "She's one of those characters where you can absolutely argue she has a point, but the methods are still a lot. Fodlan’s Crest/nobility system is awful, the Church is hiding history, and Edelgard herself was tortured as a child by the same faction she later ends up using for her war. But she still starts a continent-wide war to force her reforms through, and she’s very much willing to decide that everyone else’s lives can be thrown into the fire if the world that comes out the other side is better. As the Flame Emperor, she hires bandits to attack the students early on, works with the Death Knight, raids the Holy Tomb for Crest Stones, and keeps a working alliance with Those Who Slither in the Dark, even though they’re the people behind some of the worst experimentation and political violence in the setting. She hates them and does plan to turn on them eventually, but “I’ll use the evil mole cult until I can afford not to” is still a pretty questionable political strategy. And depending on the route, she can become the person who drags the entire continent through five years of war, conquers territory, treats classmates and former friends as acceptable losses, and in Azure Moon pushes herself into an even more monstrous form rather than surrender. I love her, but she is not just “girlboss emperor who wants equality.”" Propaganda: 1. "She’s one of the few characters where I can understand the argument and still be horrified by what she does with it. She’s right that Fodlan is rotten. Crests decide people’s worth, nobles inherit power they haven’t earned, the Church has shaped history around itself, and people like Edelgard and Lysithea are living proof that the system grinds children up when power wants something from them. But she takes a real injustice, responds with real conviction, and then makes herself the person who gets to decide what everyone else must endure for the future she wants. She lies, allies with monsters, starts a war, and keeps going even when the cost is horrific. She’s driven, wounded, brilliant, ruthless, and sometimes genuinely right." 2. "sorry but if you grow up being tortured into a political weapon, watch your siblings die, and then look around and see the church/nobility/crest system still being treated as basically fine, you are probably not going to become a chill reformist who writes polite letters. does that excuse everything? no. obviously no. she still starts the war, she still lies, she still uses people she knows are dangerous because she thinks she can beat them later. but i do think people flatten her when they act like she just woke up one day and chose conquest because she likes red capes. she’s trying to destroy the system that destroyed her. the tragedy is that she’s willing to destroy a lot of other people’s lives to do it." 3. "She is fascinating because every route makes you deal with a different version of her. On her own route, she’s the revolutionary you can understand and even support if you buy into the cost. On other routes, she’s the former classmate across the battlefield who has decided the war matters more than anyone’s personal feelings about it. She’s sympathetic, stubborn, terrifying, painfully young, and somehow both the person trying to end the Crest system and the person willing to use a faction of nightmare scientists to get there. Incredible character."

[t00thpasteface]

related to my previous post: this is my POV on the eternal "it is/n't that deep" debate always going on with everything, as someone who now just goes "cool okay whatever" and leaves when something disappoints me instead of wasting time raging about what went wrong or waiting around for it to get better. i think it's good to have all those crazy what-if thought experiments, but i also think you need to make sure you're not setting yourself up for heartache! be nice to yourself and be nice to other people (as the moral so often is...)

[problematic-character-tournament]

ROUND 2 — Match 12 of 138

Enji Todoroki/Endeavor (My Hero Academia)

Problematic because: "Familial abuse, human trafficking(he bought his wife), implied marital rape, child neglect, child grooming" Propaganda: "He and his family are such an accurate representation of some people in that situation. Enji hurts his family, grooms two of his four children into being pro heroes(because he hates his own weakness and wants those two kids to be the strongest), drives one of his kids to what is basically a suicide attempt just to get his attention back, abuses and isolates his youngest child until he's 15/16, and neglects his two middle children because they don't have his fire quirk. After the whole war against the villains thing, he realizes that he fucks up and he tries his damn best to atone. He doesn't ask for redemption or forgiveness, but just atonement. And his family is all mixed up about it. His wife helps take care of him(he's in a wheelchair after the war), his daughter helps as well, his youngest WANTS to see him become better, his second youngest left because he can't stand seeing him changing(fair enough), and his oldest is in the hospital after trying to kill himself for the second time, and he is still glad because Enji comes and visits him in the hospital. Basically, I really really love their story, and Enji doesn't deserve all the hate he gets in the MHA Fandom because he genuinely did change, but he still did fucked up things for 24/25 years and he acknowledged that."

vs. Ketheric Thorm (Baldur's Gate 3)

Problematic because: "He helped Gortash and Dark Urge create the Absolute Plot to conquer Faerun with Illithid Tadpoles. He unleashed a curse on his village that turned the whole region into a shadowed wasteland. And he did all this just because he couldn’t cope with the loss of his wife and daughter." Propaganda: "He is arguably, either one of the most sympathetic or one of the easiest to hate of the three main villains, due to his tragic backstory and the disproportionate response he has to anything that goes wrong in his life. Also, the voice acting for all his scenes is so good."

Who should advance?

Enji Todoroki/Endeavor

Ketheric Thorm

[problematic-character-tournament]

ROUND 2 — Match 14 of 138

Volta (The Arcana)

Problematic because: "She's one of Lucio’s courtiers and is literally in charge of the city’s food, which is already not great when Vesuvia is plague-ridden and starving. The issue is that she’s hoarding supplies while people in the city go hungry, and her whole curse/deal with the Devil means she’s always hungry but never actually satisfied. She’s not cruel like Valdemar or Vulgora, she’s honestly kind of pathetic and scared most of the time, but she still goes along with the courtiers, benefits from Lucio’s court, and helps maintain a system where everyone else is suffering while she keeps trying to feed an appetite that can’t be fixed that way. Her backstory makes it sadder - she was starving when the Devil offered to “feed” her, without telling her she’d never feel full - but it doesn’t make the food-hoarding any less awful for everyone beneath her." Propaganda: 1. "She's probably the courtier I feel worst for, because she doesn’t come across like someone who wants power for the sake of it. She’s hungry, constantly, painfully hungry, and the Devil’s deal twisted that into her entire existence. Which doesn’t excuse hoarding food while Vesuvia suffers, but it does make her feel more tragic than malicious. I like her because she’s not scary in the same way the others are. Valdemar is clinical horror, Vulgora is violence, Vlastomil is worms and corruption, but Volta is more like need. The fact that she can side with the Apprentice and doesn’t seem to actually love the courtiers makes her feel like someone who got trapped in the wrong bargain and just kept surviving badly." 2. "volta apologist hours because honestly if i was starving for weeks, eating shoe leather and bones, and then a literal devil showed up like “hey i can feed you,” i cannot promise i would make a smart legal decision either. yes, she hoards food. yes, that is awful when the city is starving. but she’s not doing it because she’s some evil mastermind rubbing her hands together over famine. shes cursed to always want and never feel full, and the other courtiers clearly intimidate/control her more than they actually respect her. she’s sad and weird and gross and still somehow one of the least malicious people in that nightmare court" 3. "She should not be in charge of food distribution. I think we can all agree on that. Terrible appointment. Horrible for Vesuvia. But as a character? I’m fond of her. She’s small, nervous, constantly starving, sniffing around for snacks, eating beetles, getting bullied by worse courtiers, and generally giving the impression that she signed the worst contract in the world and nobody explained the terms. Like, is she part of the problem? absolutely. Would I trust her with a pantry during a crisis? no. Do I still want to wrap her in a blanket, give her soup, and then maybe overthrow the Devil for false advertising? yes."

vs. Emily Davis (Until Dawn)

Problematic because: "She's exactly the kind of character people write off as “just a bitch,” which is lazy, but also like… she is definitely being a bitch for a good chunk of the game. She’s part of the prank on Hannah at the start, where the group humiliates her over her crush on Mike - Hannah runs out into the snow afterward, Beth follows her, and the whole tragedy starts there. Emily wasn’t the only person involved, and Jessica is the one usually credited with planning it, but Emily is absolutely in that room. A year later, she’s still messy with pretty much everyone around her. She’s awful to Jessica, treats Matt like he’s there to carry bags and back her up in arguments, she might be cheating with Mike, and can like it when Matt threatens Mike or sides against Jess, which says a lot about how she uses him in that relationship. She’s also harsh, demanding, spiteful, and very willing to make her insecurity everyone else’s problem. The basement bite scene is more complicated because Mike is the one who can pull the gun on her, but Emily can still slap Ashley afterward when she finds out the bite was never infectious, so even her very understandable terror comes out as “I’m going to make this someone’s fault immediately.”" Propaganda: 1. "She’s rude, jealous, controlling with Matt, and absolutely part of the Hannah prank, so I’m not trying to pretend she’s secretly innocent. But once the horror actually starts, she’s also one of the most capable people in the group. The mines sequence does so much for her because suddenly all the “mean girl” stuff falls away and you’re watching someone think fast, keep moving, and survive through sheer panic and competence. She’s not written to be pleasant, she’s written to be abrasive, smart, angry, scared, and very hard to kill if you don’t mess up her QTEs. I love a horror character who can be socially terrible and still earn respect because when the monster shows up, she does not simply stand there screaming. She runs, climbs, hides, improvises, and makes it out. Emily isn’t “nice,” but nice was never the assignment!!" 2. "yes, she is mean. yes, she is exhausting. yes, matt should probably have gone home single. but she is also SO entertaining and honestly one of the most competent people on that mountain. like people reduce her to “bitchy girlfriend” and then forget she survives the mines basically alone while everyone else is still in the lodge. she’s snappy, she’s selfish, she’s jealous, she has a horrible tone 90% of the time, but she also has survival instincts and a brain. i don’t need her to be sweet i need her to be exactly the kind of girl who would call me an idiot and then somehow get us both out alive"

ROUND 2 — Match 3 of 138

Actor Mark (Who Killed Markiplier?)

Problematic because: "The Actor, Mark, is described as a "narcissistic asshole" by his author. The once famous actor, after a rough divorce due to his wife's (honestly kind of warranted) affair, he isolates himself in his manor. The manor, having supernatural ties, manipulates him over these years that he spirals, and eventually causes him to plan his own murder at the hands of who "stole" his wife, William J. Barnum. He does this at his first poker night in many years, where his plan succeeds and William is the main suspect. Due to his body's damage, he intends to use the house's properties to steal the body of his childhood friend, and his wife's brother, Damien. He also manages to do this, with the manor killing Celine in the process. The party also leaves the District Attorney and The Detective dead, as well as William succumbing to insanity. After this, he begins hosting these "stories," such as A Date With Markiplier, A Heist With Markiplier, and supposedly Wilford Motherloving Warfstache with the abilities the Manor has given him. Mark believes himself to be the hero, the main character, the good guy. He thinks that all who participate in these stories should be grateful to him for allowing them such an opportunity, including Damien, whom he offers the role of the antagonist, leading to the creation of Darkiplier. He wants everything to revolve around him, and gets agitated or even pitiful whenever the viewer turns him down." Propaganda: "The Actor is a VERY compelling, tragic, but also very clearly In The Wrong kind of character. Just genuinely unforgivable while still holding the capacity to pity him because of the effects of the house. Hate this guy/pos"

vs. Bedelia du Maurier (Hannibal)

Problematic because: "she’s hannibal’s psychiatrist, she knows he’s dangerous earlier than most people, and she still keeps circling him because fear is Nawt the only thing she feels there. her past with neal frank is a huge part of it - he was hannibal’s former patient, he attacked her and she kills him, but bedelia later admits that what happened went beyond self-defence and into murder under hannibal’s influence. then season 3 takes it further because she runs away with hannibal to florence, helps live under the stolen identities of roman and lydia fell, stands by while hannibal keeps killing, and then later tries to build herself an alibi by making it look like she was drugged and helpless the whole time. she’s not hannibal’s innocent captive. she’s scared of him, yes, but she’s also curious, self-protective, complicit, and very good at turning her own involvement into something cleaner when people start asking questions." Propaganda: 1. "shes honestly one of the funniest hannibal characters to me because she spends half the show speaking in this calm, therapist voice while making choices that are absolutely deranged. but i do think people underestimate how much of her is survival. hannibal isnt some normal dangerous man she can just ghost and block. she knows what he is, she knows what he does to people who become inconvenient, and shes trying to stay alive around him with the tools she has - intelligence, distance, plausible deniability, and the ability to sound like she’s analysing the situation from above it while actively standing inside it. she’s not a pure victim, but she’s not exactly free either. she’s in this horrible middle space where she’s afraid, fascinated, morally compromised, and always calculating what version of the story will leave her with a way out." 2. "She is so good because she never gives you the satisfaction of being easy to read. Is she trapped? Kind of. Is she choosing it? Also kind of. Is she lying to the FBI, to Hannibal, to Will, to herself, or to all of them depending on the day? yes, probably."

[cinnamonspiderrrrrrrr]

in order to truly get rid of misogyny in fandoms we need to treat girl characters the same way we treat guy characters. Say you’d hit her with your car. Say you want to see her crying and trying and failing to keep her emotions hidden. Say you want her to get worse. Say you want to chew on her like a squeaky toy. For feminism
