I'm just a hopeless fangirl!

anime, manga and musical stuff, I guess? and cats current obsession: Hanako-kun

[tenshi-chan]

am i crazy or are there parallels between rosie and ursula from the little mermaid? i have no idea what that means and if it's just a fun nod to another musical, but hear me out

there's three things i noticed (without rewatching the little mermaid, idk if there's more):

1. "I'm a very busy woman" when rosie is sitting down to talk to charlie. it's a line in "Poor Unfortunate Souls" as well ("I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day")

2. rosie's "Keep singing" in "Ready for This" is also in "Poor Unfortunate Souls" (also technically it's rosie who tells charlie to sing in the first place; just as ursula is telling arielle to sing in order to make their deal work)

3. this is a bit more obscure i guess, but before charlie talks to the crowd for the first time she is talking to rosie. the dialogue is:

c: but how do i-

r: with sparkle! razzmatazz! and that oh so appealing moxie of yours.

i can't help but be reminded by ursula's words in little mermaid:

a: but without my voice, how can i-

u: you'll have your looks! your pretty face! and don't underestimate the importance of body language.

both arielle and charlie get interrupted asking how to do something. both rosie and ursula answer by listing three things. things that describe the other character (physically in arielle's case, and like, her vibe in charlie's case)

...

now, i have no idea what that means and if it means something, but y'know, it's there and i noticed it

[tenshi-chan]

ALSO also, with the context of season 2, rosie (with the help of alastor) is using charlie's voice specifically

the voice that we now know does have some sort of power, because charlie saying that vox is the strongest did make it true somehow

of course, the question remains if and how rosie is going to use charlie's voice from now on. since we don't know yet how much rosie and alastor are going to work together from now on (after alastor breaking his deal and stuff)

....

or, y'know, all of that was just a fun nod to disney bc charlie is in fact a disney princess lol

[tenshi-chan]

i just found my sexuality and it's that one minute of lucifer singing in s2e5 i'm definitely normal about this

It does matter. It matters exactly like this.

Last month I was in the ER, the most vulnerable emotionally that I've ever been while putting myself in the hands of a stranger. That the intake doctor had a lanyard heavy with Pride pins mattered. It's such a tiny gesture, but the amount of safety I felt because of it, during an agonizing moment in my life, was huge.

Shizaya is such a wild ship when you remember that in the canon duration of the LN they only interact a couple of times until the final showdown. Which in most cases would warrant a "nothing burger" when it comes to the idea of shipping them AND YET!! And yet despite hardly ever interacting face to face for most of the story they can never seem to stfu when it comes to bringing the other person up unprompted. And I'm not even exaggerating here. A character can genuinely just be standing there not speaking, and shizaya will feel it's super important to bring up the other person, ask about them and mention how much they hate them like ???? Who tf asked? Why do you guys keep talking about the person you hate? No one said anything you keep bringing the conversation back to that (brainrot lvls of obsession). Also love those moments where someone else will reminisce about their time at raijin and of course shizaya gets brought up again with how intense their rivalry/hatred/situationship was

[fwuuton]

It's insane because no one even asked for this ship they really just did that on their own,

and they're so intense about it??? Like bro, if I really hated someone, I would not want to see their face or be in the same vicinity as them for more than a second. Much less grin like a maniac and chase after them regularly for ten fucking years.

Even Shinra, their mutual childhood friend, who knew them both so well, who is a man, saw potential in the ship and was like "Well, maybe they could be-" lol excuse me, what?

Then there's that final fight, hoo boy. What happened to "I want to start a war that only I can win so I can be taken to Valhalla and live forever"?

So you've been cooking up this whole conflict for a whole year, and now you're saying you want to die by his hands to prove he's a monster? Bitch you didn't even see him for a whole fucking season.

How did we go from unserious, goofy fights like this

to this

complete with tragic "what could've been" highschool flashbacks in between, and Shinra saying he genuinely wanted them and Celty to be a group of best friends just like Mikado's. Their relationship is so messy but such good writing tbh.

Anyway, this is getting dark. Here's a funny little thing I noticed on a rewatch of season 1.

WHO TF-

[tenshi-chan]

you know, the amazing thing about bakudeku is that it's queer af no matter how you interpret it

like, it's either just straight up gay af and queer bc of that

or it's still queer af, because the number one person, the one midoriya and bakugou have the strongest connection with, are each other and not their romantic partner/the person they're in love with. which goes against being heteronormative. aka it's queer af

omg i love those two sm

Neil Gaiman Tumblr FAQ: Good Omens

Tumblr questions that Neil Gaiman has already answered. Yes, it does have some Neil-provided info of S2. But, it is spoiler leak-free! (It also does not have spoilers from early screenings of S2.)

Docs Version: Here Spreadsheet Version: Here

I’m excited about Good Omens 2 and I was already going through Neil Gaiman's blog ( @neil-gaiman ). I initially made it for me and my friends for reference, but then decided to go ahead and throw it out into the Tumblr void, too. I hope it helps.

I made my own FAQ about this here (please check it before messaging me): OrpiKnight's FAQ FAQ
