I've said this before and I'll say it again: it's more important to know and understand fully why something is harmful than it is to drop everything deemed problematic. It's performative and does nothing. People wonder why nobody has critical thinking skills and this is part of it because no one knows how to simousltansly critique and consume media. You need to use discernment.

Reblog and pick a weapon for the previous person

i don’t know if i’ve said this before but Phoenix is so insanely strong. He could fully carry Maya, Pearls, and Trucy all at once.

How is he so strong, you ask? Maya would just. Jump on him for no reason and he learned to catch her. Same with Pearls. Maya and Pearls have fallen asleep on the bus and he had to carry both of them into the apartment on his own. Maya on his back, Pearls in his arms. And he was able to not wake both of them up in the process

Miles doesn’t believe him when he mentions it. Or maybe he makes some off-handed comment about his strength because he isn’t outwardly buff. Phoenix just.. picks him up and Miles does not know how to feel

man :(

Major spoilers for ORV, LCF and SCTIR

Usually I post my thoughts on @mire022 but today I really wanted to share with you guys what I think when I make orv + lcf + sctir comics (SSB comics)

One of the reasons Dokja, Cale and Yoojin are so interesting to me is how they are inserted in the context of “protagonist knows the event so they make use of the knowledge to their advantage”. 

Usually, the protagonists start their lifes after they gain the advantage, as if they are finally doing what they always wanted, free from their jobs and regrets. They got the chance to do everything again. But, often their old lives are forgotten, they become a mere speck of what things used to be and how they avoided the same events from happening. For Dokja, Yoojin and Cale this is different and REALLY important for their characters

Dokja tells the readers how he used to be an office worker who loved to read a certain webnovel. Truthfully, I accepted that he was only this person and moved on, happy that he got to meet his beloved characters and live how he wanted. Though, it is important to note how Dokja is an unreliable narrator. He doesn’t tell the readers his past as this abused and bullied child because that is his story and there is no need for him to remeber his trauma. There is no point for him, so you only get to discover this through others in his life. And by god, that explains so many of his actions. I’m not saying trauma shapes who other people are, they are just a part of someone, but his decisions on self-sacrifice never made sense to me. If he was just an office worker, why would he keep sacrificing himself for others like a madman? Did he like the story to the point of removing himself from it just to keep the narration moving on? No, this is tied to the fact that he never saw himself as someone valuable, who deserved to be cherished and cared for, because others always saw him as a target, or a character from the news, never as a person. His mother might have loved him, but would he have been able to note how much she did as he was always hiding and in fear of being beaten? Maybe some people can, but not Dokja.

Yoojin always thought of others ever since he was born. His little brother was his priority as his parents neglected them, so he took upon himself to raise Yoohyun. Every decision he took was in order to ensure Yoohyun had a good life, he dropped out of college to take numerous jobs to pay for their finances and to enable Yoohyun to get on a good college. That being the case, he never thought of himself, prioritized his future and happiness, if he ever got to live a comfortable life, it would only be after every single aspect of Yoohyun’s life was ok and THAT was his happiness, to see his brother doing fine and grow to be a healthy adult. Isn’t that extremely altruistic, to be happy by seeing others happiness, never resenting them for “taking away your future” or “a happiness that was supposed to be yours”? But, with that it comes the consequence that Yoojin forgot entirely that he was a person who had his own life, his own needs and dreams, he tied his entire existence to Yoohyun because “he was his older brother and he loved him”. Many parents think their child is their life, so they forget about themselves and when the child has their own life and moves away, the parents have nothing to do, because “their life” has gone away. Yoojin entered a depressed state because of how Yoohyun decided to shut him off his life to protect him and Yoojin, hurt and feeling betrayed, decided to live his own life and BOI DID THAT GO BAD. When he got the chance to re-do his relationship with his brother, he was still set on the mindset that it was his responsibility to ensure Yoohyun’s happiness and safety, because Yoohyun died for him and when Yoojin tried to live for himself, he had no objective, no goals or dream since he never thought of that and only spiraled to a bad state of mind. His time of happiness was when he was with his brother, working and hoping to see his brother’ smile. And that is why Yoojin keeps overworking himself to the point he lost his sight due to stress and exhaustion.

Cale is a funny case. He tells others how he won’t sacrifice himself, that this is foolish and he hates feeling pain but, at the mere danger of his family getting hurt, be it a scrape on the knee or not being able to eat one meal, he stops everything he is doing to ensure that will not happen. Although, sometimes he feels pain beyond imagination and it wasn’t something planned, he still would welcome it if it means avoiding keeping his family out of danger. Cale also has extremely good leadership skills and huge charisma, this trait often seen as expected from an isekai protagonist, it comes from out of nowhere and does not need an explanation, the protagonist was just born with it and for some reason his past world did not see it or they had a chance to show it off. Cale, on the other hand, acquired this skill being a powerful teammate and leader through YEARS of experience. The position he was put through is explained by his special abilities, not something he asked for but had to deal with it. Cale, being a leader and a strong fighter, shouldered resposibilities like it was just natural of him to do so. Be a minor inconvenience or a teammate getting hurt, he thought it was his fault as his ability was to record every monsters’ power and attacks and he was the leader. He never looks too bothered by having to deal with huge expectations because it is NATURAL for him, it was something that followed him through so much time he had to learn how to deal with it. And this is important to his character. He still has the Record ability and knows a little about the future of his current world, so he still thinks is of his resposibility to achieve world peace, otherwise he won’t be able to rest peacefully. Hence why he is always saying his dream is to rest when all he does is bring trouble to himself.

I’m not saying this is the solid truth and a fact, this is just my interpretation of the characters and how interesting it is that their past is as important as the events that are currently happening that us, readers, are experiencing. It makes them look more human, to know their mistakes, their regrets and how they feel about it and how it affects the present. They have a history beyond what we are told, and isn’t that how humans work, to have a history before you meet someone?

become the dr doofensmirtz 

i havent been normal since ive seen this 

Sing Shong should release an open-world RPG game where we play as Yoo Jonghyuk in the 0th Round. At first it's just us controlling him to do common game actions and challenges but then as the game progresses, we begin to be able to communicate with him directly and influence the storyline. And then when the game ends with the Star Stream falling, YJH will ask us who we are and why we helped him and there will be an automated text saying, "I am the Demon King of Salvation."
