My red flag is that when someone tells me they're a zuko fan but an azula hater, I can't help but immediately think they must be misogynistic.

Because what exactly is Azula guilty of in comparison of Zuko to justify hating her but loving him?

She did what?

Be better at doing the stuff Zuko wanted to do?

Her biggest evil is simply being more efficient than him at the goals he had for himself?

Being an Aang, Sokka, or Jet fan and hating Azula, I can understand. I can even respect.

But loving Zuko and hating Azula? Yeah, you just hate women LMFAOOOOOO

I have finally started Bungo Stray Dogs (currently on season 3), and I have never been more attracted to a cast of anime men. I want them all. I need them all. PLEASE!

The more I think about Endeavor, the more I realize how fucking dumb he is.

Like he's really fucking dumb. Like remarkably dumb.

So, his grand plan was to marry a chick with a quirk so that he could combine with his quirk with hers and create a super baby.

A baby that is so powerful that not only it would surpass him but also surpass All Might.

Weird. Egostical. Whatever. That's not even what I'm calling dumb.

What's completely idiotic is that not once did he consider that treating said super baby like shit would result in that child being his biggest opp.

Endeavor literally bred and raised a being capable of destroying him and yet was all surprise pikachu that he would have to treat that being nicely in order to keep it on his side.

Even as a concept, this idea was fucking stupid. This is beyond being a bad parent and beyond being egostical. This entire plan lacks common sense.

"I'm gonna create a being so powerful that it can destroy me, but I'm going to treat it like shit every day as a child and hope it likes me when it's older"

Like, bro, what????

That's like buying a cane corso puppy and beating it every day, and being surprised, it eats you eventually.

I find it so funny when people try to claim that Batman makes his own enemies.

Lmfaooo, nah fam, Endeavor literally created his own enemy, starting from sperm.

Man, I remember when I used to argue people down that M*doriya and B*kugou were gonna have amazing character arcs only for those two idiots to regress majorly by the end of the story 💀

Hella, embarrassing for me.

Anyway, stan Shoto and the Todoroki's for carrying the story 😘❤️

To the Deathstrokes Dudebros who keep sending me dumbass rants, I'm not responding to them or posting them.

You don't get attention on my page. Keep your bullshit in the sewer where it belongs!

[writnwolph]

I much prefer the Terra retcon because if you read interviews from Deathstroke co-creator Perez at that time it wasn't to make Slade or loser or crybaby. The writers actually thought it did make Slade cool and smart, neither writer saw it as pedophilia. In fact they wrote it that way because he thought it demonised *Terra* because she was (and I quote) "a slut". The whole thing was written to make Terra a morally bankrupt person not Slade. So I say good riddance to that whole thing.

I don't like retcons of it because, inevitably, it's just to make Deathstroke more appealing to the masses. It's not like Terra is the one getting comic books dedicated to her or TV shows made in her name with these retcons. It's for Deathstroke.

Deathstroke as a character doesn't deserve to have this origin written away.

He doesn't deserve to be palatable enough to get merchandise and TV shows while Terra is still left behind in the DC Universe as an evil girl who got what was coming to her. What kind of justice is that???

Slade represents what many influential men in the real world are able to get away with when you have power. These men are able to "retcon" their past sins away with money.

Retconning a canonical predator's past away just follows real world trends in a way that makes me uncomfortable to accept.

In life, girls like Terra can't retcon away their abuse. Yeah, I realize that Terra and Deathstroke aren't real people but they represent real themes. Retconning their past away leaves a bad taste in my mouth as well as a bad message in my opinion.

Because Deathstroke (Slade) was meant to be his Wonderful Shades of Gray Antagonist, basically two steps down from the Punisher morally. Wolfman and Perez thought the hate for Tara being the way she was would fall only on her. Nor did they ever admit they were wrong about it. And they were baffled that people felt that way. You want to know why. The best answer I can give you is "because they were shallow a-holes". What grinds *my* gears is the only reason a *good* Tara (Terra II) ever *existed* was because in the 90s an editor tried to make Wolfman bring Terra back (Perez was long gone by then) and Wolfman was like "no, I refuse! I will make a good girl version who isn't actually her, just looks like her for convoluted alternate timeline sci fi reasons!"

What grinds my gears the most is new-age Deathstroke dudebros finding out about this part of his history and going "why did DC do this, it ruined his character"

Like, no! This is Deathstroke's origin story! This is how he's always been! He was never "ruined" from his original characterization. All these new comics and movies and TV shows that retcon his creepiness away are the ones doing the ruining! He's always been a creepy, crybaby, loser! He's never been cool, he gets his ass kicked constantly, and he likes children. That's who Deathstroke is! I see no gray areas!

she got a tragic origin by accident; the Outsiders writers created a male character with similar powers (Geo-Force), and so she became his half sister, the unwanted bastard child of the Markovian throne. Question is, should she STAY a villain, unredeemed? Too many who claim to love her want to continue to condemn her, tragic origin or no. Playing into Wolfman's hands in the process.

The thing is: how is her tragic backstory an accident???? How can any writer create a character with her story (purposefully writing her as a child at that) and not automatically think it's tragic??? That's where my confusion comes in. I literally cannot fathom the thought of looking at Terra and not seeing tragedy.

I'm so glad someone agrees with me about The Vampire Diaries. I thought I was alone and I was the only one. I absolutely can't stand Elena or any of the Mystic Falls Gang. And how self-involved and selfish they all were, and how horribly they treated people who weren't part of their group. It was one thing for the antagonists (Katherine, Klaus) to be this way, but having the Mystic Falls Gang, who were supposed to be the protagonists we root for, be that way as well, I don't know what the writers were thinking. And the fact that they'd get mad at fans for not liking the characters or the storylines, and couldn't handle the criticism, speaks major volumes about them too. How people defend these characters actions or think that any of them deserved happy endings is beyond me.

💯💯💯

I was always confused about Terra supposedly having no tragic backstory to justify making her a villain.

"She's just evil, blah blah blah, anti-kitty pryde, creators said she was always evil"

But like, she's a 14/15 year old orphaned assassin in an inappropriate relationship with a man 2x her age. That's tragic in and of itself!

No matter what actions she takes herself or what her motives even are, the fact she's a child is TRAGIC, full stop.

If they didn't want to make her tragic, then she should've been an adult.

She's tragic by default purely by just being a child when it all went down.

whenever i’m like “maybe i think tara is stronger than she actually is” i remember how she went toe to toe with slade when they sparred and his reaction was to silently freak the fuck out

[writnwolph]

My Hero Academia/Boku No Hero Academia has hella flaws thematically and narratively. But this series will always hold a special place in my heart when it comes to character design and battle sequences. I can't think of a single character design that I hate (even the ones I like the least are dynamic) or a single fight that I was bored watching! I have to give props when due!

[writnwolph]

My conclusion based on the final chapter of MHA is that the Todoroki's were 10x more interesting than whatever the fuck Deku had going on.

I'm so angry about this new bullshit "Poor Sunfyre deserves a better rider." Fuck you. Sunfyre chose Aegon, he loved him and was devoted to him. The interests of the rider are the interests of the dragon. Do you really want to look for some kind of Stockholm syndrome here? Sunfyre was born for Aegon and died for him, and I'm sure he would do it again.
