So I Started Rewatching Death Note, As You Do, And I Noticed That For The First Few Minutes Before Light

So I started rewatching Death Note, as you do, and I noticed that for the first few minutes before Light gets the Death Note his eyes are void as fuck. He looks lifeless, like a painted doll. He doesn't really look alive. 

It’s not until he notices the notebook falling that he gains the shine that most anime characters have. I’m pretty sure it’s not a hot take to say that Light was probably at least a little depressed before he found the Death Note. Honestly speaking I think finding the Death Note and using it made Light the happiest he had ever been in his admittedly short life. And it’s not just the killing criminals thing that made him happy, it was the absence of boredom, because like it or not, Light had never had a challenge before in his life until the notebook.

This isn't an argument that the Death Note was the best thing to have ever happen to Light, because that notion is entirely debatable, but rather it’s an argument that the Death Note made Light’s life more colorful for him.

Because we can't know for sure what would have happened if Light continued on the way he had without ever finding the death note. Would he have found happiness despite the ever present boredom and distaste towards his fellow man? Or would he have become even more depressed? We don't know, but we do know that up until the moment the notebook dropped, Light had been unhappy.

To be perfectly honest, I really wish Rey had been like, Obi-Wan’s granddaughter or something purely because of the potential fights Anakin and him would have gotten into because of it.

Like, it could range anywhere from “my grandchild is better then your grandchild!” To “so no attachments huh?”

Just, imagine how salty ghost Anakin would be.

We were robbed goddamnit.

I find it ironic that Jason calls Tim replacement when he’s the og replacement.

I think it’s because in all those other situations, there was at least hope. Yue Qingyuan had a sliver hope that if only he could just get there fast enough, or be strong enough, he could save his Xiao Jiu. But in a situation where Shen Qingqiu is dead, there’s no hope, there’s no point.

Why do you think Yue Qingyuan doesn't go wild after Shen Qingqiu self detonates?

Why isn't he going to get back Shen Qingqiu's corpse?

Is it because he respects Shen Qingqiu's choice to sacrifice himself for his disciple?

Is it because he doesn't want to trigger an actual war?

Or is it because his Xiao Jiu has been dead for a long time already and he knows it?

I'm so curious because it's so at odds with Yue Qingyuan who walked into an obvious trap at the hope of getting Shen Jiu back

The Yue Qingyuan who pushed himself to the point of being stuck with a sword that drains his life force when he uses it

The Yue Qingyuan who clawed at walls of a cave to escape and ran away to save Shen Jiu when he could

The Yue Qingyuan who pulled away from a scene where Shen Jiu had murdered people to without a care of the crime

Why was Yue Qingyuan staying back at Cang Qiong while Liu Qingge fought for Shen Qingqiu's corpse?

So I was rewatching Maid Same when I reached the beach episode and my hatred for Nagisa Tsuwamono has reawaken from it’s long slumber. Holy shit she’s such a bitch. The way she treats Aoi and her whole internal monologue just pisses me off. Like how she was like constantly ragging on Aoi to be more like a man and how she took away Aoi’s wig because she personally didn't approve. It just made me so angry. I had to restrain myself not to just throw my laptop to the floor in frustration.

To be completely honest one of the things I was most devastated about with Damian Wayne’s whole new consume and identity is the lack of stylish boots. Like, 12 year old me saw those boots and thought “yeah those are lit” and you know what? 12 year old me was right, those boots were, in fact, “lit”

But now I’m looking at his new consume and all I can think is that would be such an easier transition if they left the boots. They were fashionable as fuck and it’s a true travesty they’re gone.

Batfam Lightsabers

Here’s my take on the lightsaber colors of the Batfamily. This is purely opinion so please don't take it too seriously. 

Bruce: Purple, I feel like he’s constantly walking the line between light and dark and his lightsaber would reflect that.

Dick: Blue, he’s hyper focused on physicality so this would reaffirm that. He’d be a knight for sure. (that doesn't mean he isn't smart!)

Barbara: Yellow, she’ll always be oracle to me.

Jason: Red, he’d be a darksider but not a Sith, you know? Like, he’s an angry individual but also not evil. 

Cass: Orange, she’s highly skilled in combat but she’s just a genuinely peaceful person.

Tim: Yellow, this color was made for him and you can not convince me otherwise. An entire faction that depends on tech just as much as the force? Sign Tim up.

Steph: Pink, I have no idea why it just seems like something she would do. Just get the rarest and most misunderstood lightsaber color like it’s no big deal.

Duke: Green, he has powers already so I feel like that would transfer over to him being more focused on the force and stuff.

Damian: White, he’s constantly being pulled between the light side (his father) and the dark side (his mother). His lightsaber should reflect less of a struggle and more of neutrality.

I don't know if someone’s mentioned this yet but has anyone compared how the hijab is treated in real life and how the Mandalorian’s armor is treated in Star Wars? From people trying to forcefully take it off to see what’s underneath, to people saying that they are being brainwashed for wanting to wear their collective head covering.

I don’t know, it just has some parallels that are interesting to think about.

I hope that if they end up recasting someone for season 3 they get an actress that’s buffer then gina carano if only so when Din and Cara meet up again he’ll just be like

“You seem a little buffer”

and that’s it, no other acknowledgement, just thinks her muscles are larger.

I love Chinese bl novels because the main character will always be like, “I’m a straight male who has never had a single homosexual thought ever”

And then like not even five months later they’ll be giving out a blowjob “purely for science” like that’s a completely normal and heterosexual thing to do.

Like, I’m currently reading a transmigration novel where the mc is like, “I’m so straight,” but then his first solution to a problem that he’s having where someone is spying on him to ruin his reputation is to have a phone call in front on the spy about having an affair, go out and buy sexy lingerie, invite his “husband” to a night in a hotel, and then wait for the chaos.

My brother in Christ, what part of you felt like that was the heterosexual thing to do??

So I’m rewatching the Mandalorian and can I just say that even from episode 1 din is just such a dramatic bitch? Like, there was no need to wait until Horatio had gone downstairs and was looking at of all the other dudes submerged in carbonite that had been Din’s bounties. Din could have straight up just shoved him in but he chose not to and like, he’s just so iconic?
