Oh sweet a Dungeon Meshi video! This will be fu- IS THAT GOOD KID IN THE BACKGROUND?!

You don’t have to swear to make a point about the show

If I could get a he/him or even he/they gem in the whole of Steven Universe I swear to god I will see the whole show and the films.

I can pass Loki's sex being fluid because in the Eddas motherfucker gets pregnant as a horse and pops out Sleipnir. Like, both sex and gender in that person are both fluid and honestly. Slay (derogatory. I fucking hate Disney).

Great video, you captured my experience with Laezel. I didn't like her at first, found her rude and interfering and nagging. She seemed like a bully, always second guessing my choices. Then the Creche came and she was so confused and heartbroken. Even Shart was concerned. Then Voss came along and suddenly, I was determined to save Laezel from Vlakith. The ending at the Docks, when Laezel rode off on a red dragon, I was bawling like a proud parent.

I used to think she was just dumb and always picking a fight like some sort of murder hobo and you the player are the only thing keeping her alive lol.

Is "roaring rampage of revenge" a KB reference?

Literally after the "teefling" scene I warmed up to her. If you give her a chance you realize how terrified she if. She's alone, in a plane she knows nothing about with strangers, infected by the one thing her species bases their life on killing...She 100% is facing the worst day imaginable for a Gith when she meets the MC. Even then she offers them a cure instead of immediately killing them like any other Gith would do. She's pretty loyal for a stranger and never threatens to betray or backstab you, she only perisist regarding the urgency of the tadpole issue. And as soon as you get to the Creche you realize that in comparison Lae'zel is basically a patron saint when compared to most Gith. Yeah she's often rude and mean-spirited, but clearly that culture is deeply embedded and in her, bur even still she demonstrates great bouts of progression and open-mindednss at times, even early on. But tbh I never disliked her. She was always honest and straightforward, and wayyy too poetic to hate. And time you ask her about the Gith culture she lights up and is so willing and proud to educate you. As far as the "meaness" was so over-bearingly abasive that you could tell she was over-compensating. And it was bc she was fecking terrified and be of ruthless Gith culture. But the more you stick with her you see the depth of her character. I wish more characters had the kind of arc and growth she does tbh.

Larian did her so dirty because you can cannonically permanently kill her like 8 times during the entire playthrough

Love the video <3 I romanced Lae'zel since i was doing a duo-run with my friend and playing a drow- so i thought the duo of Angry Xenophobic characters would be fun. And it has been, but oh my god. I went from loving Lae'zel for my character to just loving her in general. Her romance is spectacular and her character development is amazing- and i love how you explore how she had her worldview shattered!!! Because yeah, poor girlie!!! Vengeance for the best gith girl!!!

I hated her at first because I found her to be annoying and a little less interesting than a few others. On my second playthrough, I ended up romanticizing her because I finally understood her character. She really grew on me! I think we all kind of judge her like the people do in the game, we think she is mean and hostile---nothing else.

My Half-Elf Bard and his Mean Angry Githyanki Fighter wife is a fav pairing (maybe Durge and Karlach next)

Lae'zel won me over in the grove, after you interrogate the "teeth-ling" and she rolls her eyes. Then you correct her on "fay-run" and she gives that indignant "tchk!". Honestly, it was one of the most adorable scenes in the game.

Lae'zel is my favorite character and the last part is the best defense of her character I've ever heard, lmao. Ahhh, she's so good. Have you seen the ending when you romance her and have the egg? Her saying that your son can be "a poet, a warrior, or whatever he wants" shows a level of character growth I'm not sure anyone else in the game reaches.

As I am just in my playthrough where I decided to give her a try and not dismiss her immediately for the same reasons you stated, this video comes at a perfect moment. As hard as it was to get over the beginning she really grew on me over time, same with Shadowheart who I found just as off-putting at the start, if a little less because she at least knows how to say thank you. Would be very interesting if you could do a video on her because I find her extremely endearing, especially if you go the Selune route with her.

21:53 and i would have fallen in love with her immediately if id seen that. Fail-queen you dropped your crown 👑

It’s also quite interesting to me how much foreground and contextual knowledge can shape those first impressions. Having a lot of DnD knowledge coloured a lot of my first impressions differently to most players. This especially applies to Lae’zel or gith and, subsequently minelayers, in general imo.

I GOT SOMETHING TO TELL YOU MY BEST FRIEND COWORKER SHE IS A S.A. SURVIVORS THIS EPISODE MAKE ME SOO VERY ANGRY 😠MY FRIEND SHE WATCH THAT EPISODE SHE CRYING😢 IN PAIN AND TRAUMATIZE IT'S GIVE HER BAD MEMORIES I HUGGING HER TO CALM HER DOWN NEXT YEAR I'M GOING TO MY BROTHER MARTIAL 🥋ART SCHOOLS TO PROTECT MYSELF AND MY FRIEND JOINING ME TOO.

Bro I love the video but I’m taking a class on filming and the laws behind it so when I just see fair use on the screen it’s so funny

She didn’t convinces them over food Alastor made that line It’s a small thing but as I’m doing a rewrite (I’m a board ND Kid) So that was one of the first things I changed in the song because really Charlie’s agency is wavy

55:21 Bit of a tangent here, but while wanting to help out anyone who needs it is admirable, I REALLY didn’t like how this trait of Katara’s was portrayed as good in ‘The Painted Lady’ when Katara purposely delayed the Gaang in their endeavour to reach the invasion force on time in order to help out a town that while was in trouble, should not have been at the top of their priority list when they had a bloody INVASION to make on the Fire Nation itself! Like Sokka said, they didn’t have time to help out EVERY place they went to, but Katara acted like they did & that’s wrong when you’re willing to sabotage someone else’s hard work that could end up helping everybody. If you want my full opinion on Katara - just watch Shady Doorags Avatar video reviews, namely ‘Imprisoned’.

46:32 This actually is followed up on in the ‘Ruins of an Empire’ comic which deals with the process of the Earth Kingdom transitioning into a democracy (which nearly gets sabotaged when one of Kuvira’s former army force leaders tries to rig the first election in his favour in order to re-establish the Earth Empire) which makes Wu realise the process will take longer than he thought, so he decides to remain as an interim King until all the Earth Kingdom states elect official leaders.

39:59 It’s kinda funny to me that Su dissed the concept of monarchies in front of Korra - the daughter of a Chief but then again, Tonraq was elected rather than it being handed down to him through bloodline but Chiefs are often treated very similarly to royalty.

37:46 Actually it’s Wing & Wei but I guess that speaks to how forgettable they are along with the others Lol

8-bit Good Kid is something I didn’t know I needed as background music. Absolutely splendid

the thing is su didn’t actually change she says she changed like 10 times but then when she makes up with lin the next day she lies to her sister betraying again n literally admitted it to korra “i said what lin wanted to hear”

Is it bad that I am watching content from the Aro-Ace community to help me understand them?

I think you will LOVE kabru when you see his relationship with *that character* in s2

I really love marcille and laios together. I can’t wait for y’all to see their relationship development in s2

I honestly don’t really agree with that Tenzin is a terrible teacher. I don’t think he’s perfect either, he surely has flaws, but the whole thing is that his way of teaching was very spiritual and that’s why Korra had trouble with it. She herself said in the first episode that she knew she had trouble with the spiritual side and that’s why she wanted to start air bending as quick as she could. The fact that Tenzin adjusts his training method to be closer to pro bending(something very opposite to spiritual), just means she doesn’t get to learn being spiritual here as well. Instead of her changing her mentality for the better and becoming more spiritual, its Tenzin who adjust himself to her needs meaning she never has to get out of her comfort zone and develop.

Lin and Tenzin were great supporting characters

Aang: I actually hated the conversation among Aang's children. It's not so much that he gave more attention to Tenzin but that he went on fun vacations without them. It's like going to Disney world with only one child. Throughout ATLA he is constantly trying to share his culture and get Sokka and Katara to join him in fun activities. Then they backpedal by saying Kya and Bumi never showed interest in the Nomad culture. So, does that mean they chose not to travel with him and that's why they missed out? Either they are being petty or Aang suddenly did a 180 in personality. Toph: I always understood Toph's conflict with her parents to be a lack of attention. She seemed hurt that they never took time to understand her interests and chose to keep her isolated from the world. In terms of career choice, she struck me more as a private security or Dojo master type of person. Su: I am not a big fan. Her apology seemed disingenuous. I have siblings and when you apologize there are no qualifiers, no clap back, and definitely no low blows like " and that's why you're single." It feels like she is only apologizing so she doesn't have to suffer Lin's ire anymore. Then Season 4 and the follow up comics lower my opinion even more. Varrick: I appreciate that someone else understands he is a total dirtbag. I never understood why anyone tolerates him. Katara: This ties into the Aang vacation thing, where was she when he excluded their children from life changing experiences? It feels like they forgot about her motherly nature. Motherly does not mean passive, there is reason the term Mama Bear exists. If Aang is excluding her children, she would have confronted him. If Korra's masters were isolating her, she would have fought to send her away. Korra could have spent time under Zuko's protection and learned about the Sun Warriors or hung out with the swampbenders and Toph.

I love these videos so much, this is the third time I've watched them and I'm looking forward to the next part. I have nothing more to add to the video except that 49:50 is a fucking mood

well considering i hate Tony stark its not looking good for any of them

I seriously disagree. The Gaang can and did hold the show up on their own and the belief that they didn’t is ironically why later Avatar series suck.

I need Prince Wu x Mako fanfic. Btw you’re underrated to have few hundred views per video man, this is good content, subbed.

The fucking voice acting from all of them! But especially karlach. God it tears me up everytime.

I do wonder if the writers regret the choice of not having Asami start off as an antagonist like what she was initially meant to have done. While we don't know for sure how that would have gone it would have at least opened the door of doing more with her after season 1 as she's probably the character they struggle the most with to give an arc unless it involved her father.

As some one who is under the trans umbrella and loves the dragon prince Terry is a sore topic for me, i love him as a character but in one of his fist scenes he picks a flower with the colours of the trans flag and remarks on how he likes the colours. this isn't necessarily bad but it happens in one of his first 2-4 scenes if my memory serves right and it just rubbed me the wrong way. personally i feel it was kinda unnecessary but go check out the show! its really good :)

All of my friends were raving about this manga b4 the anime was announced. (We’re all different flavors of nerds, for me I’m the kind that will reluctantly follow along… or info dump with no warning heh ^^;) Your vid style is so good for my vicious need to hear others talk bout what I love. I’m no good at writing analysis as well- so it definitely helps. To be blunt, we both got that auadhd lense on shows, which my friends don’t rly. (Info vids help especially when it comes to character relationships, due to A I’m dense as a rock and B I’m too focused on the art- lolz) ANYHOW I’ma continue to watch these in the back while I draw even MORE fanart for these shows (woa I wrote a lot…. Oops :>)

This was I great video. I’m a spec and I really enjoyed learning about more representation in media. Also I’m not sure how to feel about the Alistor situation. On the one hand I think it’s ok for people to be attracted to him that’s just how attraction works. it’s the pushing that onto him and real life ace people and the lack of respect towards his identity that I have a problem with. Especially since the character seems to be repulsed by those activities. That level of invalidation wouldn’t be ok for other LGBT identities so why is it ok here? As for shipping, i think amatanormativity is really kicking peoples butts 😂. Doesn’t help that we’ve been socialized to see romantic love as the be all end all. Like it’s fine if you want him to have a close bond with someone but that bond doesn’t have to be romance or sexual in nature to be deep. At least to me, different forms of love aren’t inherently hierarchical. They exist on separate (and sometimes intersecting) lines with closeness being a separate axis. There are ways of giving him deep bonds with others without invalidating his identity. These are just my thoughts though.

The weird pacing and inconsistent sense of urgency made me feel more than ever that I am just watching someone’s animated take of their own TTRPG campaign. “Yeah, we’re tight on time, but… I really need a Long Rest.” I mean this in the best way! 😂

This video was a beautiful journey. Some comments: >Not even Frieren noticed Serie's mana supression That's not stated or implied. From everything we've seen in the manga Frieren's ability to suppress and detect mana is superior to Fern's. >Friren killed all the demons who attacker her village We only know she killed Basalt. Other demons could have been killed by some of the other elves. >Lugner didn't look at Stark because he had no mana This is also purely speculation, albeit an interesting one. >Fern's group manages to capture a Stile faster than anyone else due to Fern stealth skills. It was luck as mentioned in the show. They happened to run into a nest not to mention Frieren had taught Fern the bird catching spell. Regarding if Frieren loves Himmel, I would say yes, but she is not fully aware of it yet. Just as during her journey to Aureole she will learn to love Fern, so in time will she realize she loved Himmel.

I feel like the series goes out of it's way to make Marcille really struggle in the early episodes to balance out how she's basically overpowered compared to the rest of her party. She's the party's cannon AND their healer. The more minor setbacks they face are often fixed by one of Marcille's spells, like a water-walking spell for the lake or a light spell for dark spaces. Having her mess up in the earlier levels of dungeon due to her going overboard with everything she does makes sense for the narrative, when you consider how overwhelming her abilities are and how much of a perfectionist she is.

Yea the thing with itzumi having nipples was creepy. But in the moment i just chalked it up to being an anime and played for laughs. Trust me there are far more disturbing things ive seen on amime so this was not that bad. I did love the bath scene, it was soft and so gay lol

This video was amazing! I’m personally happy the characters weren’t so likable a lot of people are that was at first (Please like, comment and share to spread this video❣️)

Wow. I just finished a playthrough and karlach was the last person i romanced. Her story is heart breaking and her ending, if you make the right choices and did her romance can be so beautiful but depressing. You and her live on but stuck in hell. I legit teared up with her romance so many times, some from cuteness some from the gut wrenching fact that she could blow any day. The player loves her but they both know, unless she goes back to hell, it will end. This commentary and breakdown of karlach is perfectly done. You have earned a sub from me. Keep up the great work.

I’m a rape victim. I wondered why I related so much to Karlach when I met her. I romanced her and I cried so hard when she was on that dock. I’m happy to have a partner in real life, but god Karlach encapsulates so much of that pain, so much of that suffering. I love Larian for making characters like her and the rest of the cast. Also amazing video btw!

I'm so happy transmale representation has actually started to have a larger presence in trans representation as a whole. As you said in the beginning, transmasculine people are often overlooked when cishet creators want to throw in a trans storyline, and (perhaps as both a cause and effect) reflects transmasculine visibility in larger discussions. I hope this continues. On the other hand, I also hope the same goes for transfemme representation. Sure there is more of it, but is it actually....good. Because more focus has been put on transfemmes for longer, there is much more examples of horribly disrespectful depictions (and not true good rep). I'm glad that more genuine care is being put into trans rep, and transfeminine rep. I also love that there doesn't seem to be one stencil for the characters in this video. I do think some work could be done to diversify transfemme rep to add some more butches in the mix (not every trans woman is hyperfemme after all), but characters like Yamato who has tig ole anime bitties (and doesn't seem bothered by them) who are still men, and characters like Mettaton who are fem trans guys are very important to me as a trans guy who does enjoy expressing his femininity. I'm also super impressed at how many trans guys are also MLM in some way, especially with the first depiction (Coach beast) explicitly saying "I am a trans man, and I've always been attracted to men" in the same scene. Also side note, now that season 6 of the dragon prince has been released (also, spoilers for season 6 of the dragon prince) but another trans character has been introduced, and she has a smaller role, and her "I'm trans" dialogue is a little confusing, but it is present in her media that she is trans. Its also the gayest season yet. Anyway, I leave a long comment cause this was a delight of a video. Thank you!!
