RvB15x21 Coherent Thoughts:

So, that’s it. It’s over. Season 15 has ended, time for the year long wait to see what they go for next. Chorus is well and truly back on the cards, Kaikaina is back with the group, Wash is alive, Church is still dead, and Locus has left once again running away from the people he should actually be making things up to.

When the lieutenants showed up, I all but squealed. When Kai showed up, I basically did. Grif siblings reunion!!! After all this time!!! They hugged. I’m so, so happy that this happened. This is the kind of thing I was hoping for with Kai’s return. She’s back. She’s back.

Caboose and the Church portal was sweet. I’m a little sad he still didn’t say ‘goodbye’ for real, that they didn’t go back to Epsilon before he died so they wouldn’t have had to add that ‘yeah i’m gonna pretend this never happened’ scene at the end, and that they didn’t get more use out of the time portal, but... Boose got some closure. And that’s important. I just wish that maybe some other people had gotten some closure too. 

Carolina’s take on the ‘no killing’ rule is interesting to me because it is different to Locus’. Locus now has this rule of no killing at all, he refused to take a shot that was arguably necessary because of this rule. Carolina, on the other hand, still believes killing is an option when necessary. That’s an important distinction. 

Wash is alive. He’s alive and he can speak. I wish we’d seen him for more than a few goddamn seconds, honestly, and that he’d spoken to the others and not just... been there, but... he’s alive. He’s okay. Carolina’s relief at hearing he was okay was ideal. ‘That’s music.’

Locus has run away, again. He dropped Wash off and left. He still refuses to face his actual crimes on Chorus. That’s all I’m gonna say on that.

I don’t know how I feel about them taking the piss out of Epsilon’s death. Epsilon’s death was one of the most genuinely emotional moments in the show and it feels... wrong, to parody it, to me, but... hey ho.

The ending felt lacking, in a way. Wasn’t terrible, wasn’t fantastic.

HOWEVER: Lina’s singing in the credits. Bless.

Overall, this season was fun. I have enjoyed this season a lot, I’ve enjoyed theorising and seeing people’s ideas, and the concept was good. However it definitely suffered from dropped threads syndrome, a case of the chronic misdirections, and ‘plot needs this, this thing happens without build-up’. There was a lot of lost potential and a lot of things that... really didn’t need to be there, that only complicated things.

Not to mention the queerbaiting. The show has been doing this for a long time but this was the first time it felt deliberate. That’s not the best phrasing but-- like, god, there was no doubt that this was queerbaiting. Gri mmons was pushed all season. It was an arc. And yet? No confirmation. Yes, their arc was good, but we were undeniably baited. This is... a step back, from the one slight step forward we got with Ohio and Sherry.

But I have enjoyed the season. I enjoyed it more than I didn’t. There was enough good to keep me engaged for the most part and there’s some parts of the season I am truly grateful we have. The Freelancer content was important to me for obvious reasons, Boose was treated better than he has been treated in a long, long goddamn time, Red team development (for the most part), and we’ve got some things back on the cards... 

Wonder where they’ll take us from here.

Spoilers for season 15 episode 21 of Red vs Blue:

So, a lot of you are talking about how Donut just seemed to vanish. He wasn't in the main roundup at the end of the episode, so where did he go?

I’m just putting this out there, but in the after credits scene with Temple, Bucky and Cronut, we never actually saw cronut’s visor. We don’t know if it’s orange or blue.

RVB15 finale

thoughts on the finale of rvb s15 (spoilers under the cut)

i know everyone is hating on the new writer and i feel bad

i understand its really hard writing something of ur own (nevertheless picking up something in the midst of a show and trying to take over, especially after a finale like s13) like its REALLY hard in my opinion

it felt like it was joe just warming up to the characters and stuff u know. definitely wasnt full potential but a warm up kind of

i dont know if he’ll be the writer next season and if so he’ll do better or not but overall i just understand

i feel for him bad at the same time i was excited for this season i was so ready to see the reds and blues after losing church like i was excited to see how theyd be and we didnt really get that which is what i would have focused on if it were the writer

i understand the moral of the story too, that temple was trying to get biff back, kinda paralleling church dying but i just wouldve taken it a different way

another thing is idk if shannon was just busy this season but there was barely ANY wash or carolina. its like they were barely there like they were forgotten about and just forgot about church. im sure theyd be just as sad to lose church

BUT ANYWAYS ive got high hopes for the next season. if everyone is critical for this season then thatll show them that they need to step up their game for the next season

last but not least i feel like rvb is coming to its end. like everyone, i dont want it to ever end but i feel like its getting to the point where the reds and blues have gone through so much like what more could they go through u know. but again that might just be how i feel after this season

anyways sorry this is so long i love u red vs blue always have always will

New post because the last one uuuh yeahh.. I think it's nice that Caboose finally got some closure. I'm in love with the end credit scene and I'm glad Jax got to make his movie! I really wished that Donuts writing would've been better but I'm glad that Kai is back. Also where the fuck is Donut? He's gone again? What Joe bring him back
