I know this account is like ultra mega dead but I opened my commissions ages ago and have still only gotten one commission so I might as well advertise here!

Also I’m giving my account a rebrand to line up with my other accounts since I kind of want to start using this again

Sleep deprived theory moment hear me out rq

What if Arin is the elemental master of motion?

Cause like, he’s imbuing items with Spinjitzu, with motion

It would explain how he learned Spinjitzu on his own, and why it looks so different from everyone else’s

Also there being a source dragon for motion as well as season 2 having a massive highlight on motion so far

WHAT DID KAI SEE?

[staarbiter]

I like to think that the Bravern ED actually happened in canon, like ofc the two of them sung, shirtless, on a stage, and yes, it was Smith’s idea

Knowing Bravern, it probably did happen in canon

[staarbiter]

Episode 12 spoilers

I don’t entirely know how to feel about the finale, on one hand I love that Smith did end up surviving in a way, on the other, that final scene with Smith felt too short with how important it is

Still kinda wish we got Isami time traveling (totally not going to write a fic about it at some point what?)

I feel like Bravern def would have benefited greatly from a 13th episode to allow the non battle scenes in the finale to be fleshed out more, like Isami realizing that Smith is Bravern, or Smith coming back

(I am aware this mentions an episode 13 but I don’t trust that it means we’re getting one)

ALSO THEY DIDNT HAVE GAY ROBOT SEX /j

Other than these issues I loved the finale, it was wild but very fun, it’s just a shame we didn’t get more Bravami moments

[staarbiter]

Bravern 12 comes out today so here’s some final thoughts I wanna spit out before I see it in the morning

This is mainly in regards to Lewvern’s fate

I have no idea if I’d rather have Smith or Bravern be the survivor cause Ik I’d prefer if only one of them was around and they didn’t get split into two entities

On the one hand, I absolutely love Bravern and Bravami was the whole reason I started the show, “giant fucking mech is hopelessly in love and obsessed with his pilot? Count me in!” And Bravern is just everything Smith has wanted to be

On the other, Bravern reverting back to Smith could be super important character wise. Smith’s whole deal was that he has so desperately wanted to be a hero from when he was young (he’s got a “protect those who cannot protect themselves” type mentality thanks to his parents dying because no one was there for them), yet when Bravern showed up and chose Isami over him, he realized that he “could never be a hero”, so he’d support the heroes instead. However, another person on here pointed out that Smith was already a hero, Isami’s hero.

When Smith went to save Isami from being interrogated, he became his hero, yet he had no idea as he saw Isami as the hero

So if Smith comes back, I feel like it would be so he could realize that he doesn’t need to be a giant spacetime defying mech to be someone’s hero

That’s all I had to share, it’s 2 am so this might be a bit incoherent but I just needed to put this somewhere so it’d stop rattling around in my head and I can actually sleep lmao

Guys I think my prediction for everyone getting a happy ending was wrong-

[staarbiter]

Predictions for Episode 12

Spoilers for ep 11 under cut

Alright, time to throw out every prediction under the sun

Isami goes back in time using Bravern’s core

He goes back in time to one of the following:

When he first meets Smith

Right before Smith leaves to fight Knuth

The beach

Right before Ira kills Bravern

If he goes to right before Ira kills Bravern I feel like he’ll use time travel to keep turning back the fight until it ends with Ira dead and everyone else basically unscathed

Isami says “I love you” back

Isami finds out Smith is Bravern OR he already figured it out between ep 9 and now

Bravern comes back due to time travel or smth else either as Bravern or as Smith

Bravern/Smith and Isami wedding (PLEASE)

Isami goes absolutely feral in the fight with Ira

Superbia gattai with either Burn Dragon or whatever’s left of Bravern (or maybe even both 🤷)

Happy ending for everyone (IM ON MY KNEES THEY HAVE TO HAVE ONE)

The thingy in Lulu’s hand becomes important

Isami bleeding in Bravern’s cockpit will become important

I’ll add more as I come up with them

[staarbiter]

TFW you confess your feelings and die in the same episode

I planned on threading in clips from the bad ending timeline in as well but was lazy and forgot

(Bravern fandom on tiktok is still dead so here you go)

[staarbiter]

Bravern 11 spoilers

Part 2 to this post

YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME

Ira looks so cool (but fuck you)

YOU CANT JUST END THE EPISODE LIKE THAT WTF???

Well now we know that Ira was the one to kill Bravern in the bad ending timeline

I rlly hope he survives somehow, either as Bravern or comes back as Smith cause he JUST CONFESSED HIS LOVE TOU CANT KILL HIM OFF NOW

I am not prepared for the finale man I want them to have a good ending so bad you have no idea

[staarbiter]

Bravern 11 spoilers

This episode built me up and broke me down within 22 minutes and I will never recover

This whole scene is fucking hilarious

OH MY GOD?? 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Omg they did the little love umbrella thing that’s adorable (I really hope nothing bad happens to it… haha…)

This whole bit is amazing NJDJFKF

NOT THEM RUNNING ON THE BEACH

I adore him holy shit

The Superbia vs Burn Bravern fight was so fucking good (Segnities is so real for cutting off his head just to watch it)

(I’ll make a part two rq cause I reached the limit)

[staarbiter]

Bravern episode 10 spoilers

“Hey, are you listening, Isami?”

And

“Akira, why am I the only one whose speaking?”

Give the same vibes and I HATE IT

[staarbiter]

Bravern ep 10 spoilers

WHAT THE FUCK

LOOOOOORD

Now I’m scared to see the final two Deathdrives, cause one of Bravern’s abilities it basically plot armor making him unkillable (not unharmable, unkillable)

Im curious if the timeline we’re seeing is going to be the good ending timeline, since it might be the only one where Lulu went back in time, and all the other timelines, Bravern, Isami or the both of them die

[staarbiter]

I’m curious what’s gonna happen regarding Bravern once the Deathdrives are all dead

Like is he just gonna chill with the army? Is he gonna retire? Fight general crime? Star in a TV Show?

Cause I doubt he’s gonna want to become Smith again (if even possible), since he admires Super Robots so much

I would be worried that the government would try to kill him since they’ve been wary/untrusting of him since the start but I feel like after episode 6, where they witnessed him command ALL of their missiles like it was nothing (and probably thinking “thank fucking god he’s on our side) as well as how friendly he’s gotten with most of them/how indebted they are to him, they’re gonna leave him alone

[staarbiter]

Finally hosting my first ever MAP so I thought I’d advertise it here
