[@NaThingSerious]

Part of the point is that Scott and Ramona are both toxic. Ramona cheats on and runs away from and mistreats her exes, Scott cheats on his gfs and is a lousy partner and friend and possibly pedo as well as an all round cunt. The other characters are just normal people with regular flaws, but Scott and Ramona are both toxic and deserve each other.

And hopefully learn the right lessons from said mistakes and not repeat them.

[@sneezingrobo]

i think my favorite part of the scott pilgrim comic and basically my favorite part in any comic i've read so far has to be the paneling during the first call with Envy. MAN! The brilliant use of small panels to not only emphasize just how claustrophobic Scott feels at that particular moment, but it also breaks the fourth wall and subconsciously influences YOU the reader due to the fact that our eyes subconsciously read small and narrow panels very quickly because they are meant to represent a small moment in time. so the ultimate effect is a reading experience that feels tense and disorienting for all parties involved. bro, that was gold.

[@mugenbop]

That was insane :)

[@quinnmarchese6313]

my favorite bit is i think in the 4th one, on the last page it makes fun of you for trying to read it "backwards", like a standard manga. i did not get the joke when i first read it but it got me when i came back to the series after having read manga

It has been quite the crash course in that department but glad you noticed :)

[@rockEater_deathGrips]

Scott Pilgrim has similarly been in my life since I was young. My dad showed me the movie when I was 11 and borrowed the comics from the library for me to read. I read it again at 15 and reread recently in December I believe? Now as an 18 year old. It’s so fascinating how this series has changed for me over time, as my perception of the characters and the world is informed by my own life experience. Rereading it recently, I felt it was the first time I ever felt like I saw my fears around emotional vulnerability outside of myself. It’s an alienating thing to be scared of the world, love, and your own feelings, but Bryan so beautifully humanises his characters that it felt like having a friend right there who understood me. It’s seriously such a special story-and it really reminds us to be kind to ourselves and the people around us as we grow and evolve with our changing selves and world.

[@mugenbop]

So well put I agree wholeheartedly :)

I just really hate how the fandom keeps calling Scott an asshole, a horrible person that only does horrible type of shit, but he's just an idiot that makes mistakes, like us. He's a person.

its fascinating and also a little worrying to me the complete difference in attitude towards characters and depictions and also the media literacy on newer, younger viewers. the youtuber "E" recently made a good video on this.

[@joeynerd608]

Well… he IS an asshole, but I believe it’s mostly unintentional. I happen to be awfully forgetful like scott and sometimes wonder if my forgetfulness has caused issues like it has for him. (If anything the fact that scott remembers almost nothing from his past relationships hit scarily close to home for me, but I’m fairly sure i forget after at least having a takeaway from the relationship

[@user-in4ce8il8e]

Wow, that's deep. I was really exited to see the anime adaptation of Scott Pilgrim and how it's different from the movie and comic. Now I'm even more eager to read the last one! Becoming older means your obsession over a silly nerd guy turns to understanding the exs and how he isn't actually the best guy in the world (both as a friend and as a partner). Regardless, he is still relatable, because you struggle with being adult yourself.

37 now, I'll say one thing about surviving my 20s. Two shows, two characters that are the epitome of a 20 something year old f'up. Scott and Mordecai from Regular Show. Those two character couldn't have been anymore perfect for representing 20 something years with no direction in life.

[@zadock6370]

I love how the anime creates a dark reflection of scott. when ramona said that scott is just another evil ex waiting to happen, the anime took that literally. A version of scott pilgrim (future scott) ended up being the most evil and powerful of ramona's exes to the point that he was willing to kill everyone related to scott, and soloed all 7 exes at once and then some. future scott is what would have happened if scott and ramona would never have overcome and acknowledged their flaws. this is why I love that future scott was the villain all along. it shows a possible path of scott and how he could have potentially become worse than every evil ex combined, and it even makes sense.

[@mugenbop]

I think that is one thing that can be missed with the evil scott in the comics if you never read it, the movie brushes upon it and the show lets people know how much Scott like all people can go down the same path and reject the past. Just like how even older scott wants to destroy it or stop it from even happening. :)

[@bird7120]

Ty so much for making this video this showed me a lot for further in life!!! :))❤😊

[@VendettaFreeman]

I really appreciated this video and some other Scott Pilgrim videos - I can totally relate to where I am in my part in of my life and coming to terms with who I am and the choices and mistakes I've made in the past. And most importantly, facing who I am as a person and accepting that. Keep up the good work! Also side note - who did the Launchpad McQuack song at the end? It sounds a lot like Placebo but can't pinpoint it down.

[@rauwro]

Incredible video! I love Scott Pilgrim! The comic, the movie , and most recently the anime.

[@samlorio7191]

Great video dude. I was having the same thoughts the last time I read the books, especially about how Scott can’t change because he forgets, and Ramona can’t change because she runs. The whole series focuses on change and them trying to be better, and takes until the last few pages before they both decide to make the real meaningful changes so they can try again.

[@mugenbop]

Couldn't agree more

[@smiley2208]

I literally saw one of these books in my schools library a few years ago and fell in love with it and when the new show came out I was happy to see it and how this guy explained how exs were I was like "holy shit they kinda are" because I realized that that's how my relationship before mines now was and now I'm forgot and forgave even though I said hurtful stuff and she even hurt me more but still I'm not upset at all it's weird because yeah they are a stranger now and honestly they did try to come back but I didn't eat them and for anyone who does see this I'm sorry I just rambled but I just love how this guy has explained one of my favorites series and how he even explained how exs could be and make you feel

[@MarvinPowell1]

I agree with everything you said here and I'll add this: Almost every single person I've ever heard call Scott Pilgrim "an asshole" was almost entirely projecting. How can you imply an idiot in their 20s is such an awful person when it's clear that 1) he never meant to do bad things to others and 2) the whole point of his character arc is to grow up and mature. I can't stand the perpetually-online Twitter crowd who like to use Scott Pilgrim as an excuse to project their own insecurities and flaws onto others, cause it shows they fundamentally do not get Scott Pilgrim vs The World.

[@shloobington]

overall idk how to feel about scott pilgrim since its sorta like, one of those types of media that i cant really call or describe well (The closest thing that comes to my mind is Studio Ghibli with really good world building but pretty short plots on their own) When i finish it all im immediately like: thats all? thats really everything? It leaves me wanting more, and although that can be seen as a positive i cant help but also feel disappointed It sets up this perfect world for all these characters which you really fall in love with, but they keep fighting in-between each other or keep getting into hijinks and before you know it, theyre all leaving and the comic is over i also feel like, the plot is built in such a way that it cant be dragged out any further at all, since while reading i already felt like the goal post was getting moved: beat this number of bad guys, you win end of comic, and before you know it, scott already beat like two out of the seven evil exes. and scott pilgrim has tons of media but its always the same plot: seven evil exes. i think this especially goes for the video game i played with my friend. after reading the comic i realized how similar the pacing is, like the first level is extremely long and its just walking around Toranto, and before i know it we're on the fourth ex and it feels like, wow weve been moving real fast, is the game just that short, are we already half way done??? i havent finished the game since my friend was ill lol, so i ill come back to you on that later but i think im making sense anyway thank you for reading my rambling comment uh byebye

Scott Pilgrim himself though...is literally men and well done. Actually well done, but also done from a perspective of being that guy in the movie, and trying to unpack what it feels like to be on the other end of him in the anime- and in my opinion not doing that great on either thing in terms of finishing the arc. The problem with his stories is he still after growth and whatever. Earns the girl. And this anime done 100% right for me would have ended in him realizing he has to change to get something nebulous in a future he can't see... and let Ramona go. Ramona needs to figure her crap out with a new guy too after asking herself what makes her run. I think my problem with this show is... Scott is a guy I ran from and was right to do so with back in my college days. He is needy he validates himself with his relationships and I just really want to see this guy figure himself out after losing Ramona forever, and having to accept it. And be better with no visible reward in front of him. The biggest being in your 20s reality of this would have been the mess ending and then characters still growing from it separately.

[@jessjohnson998]

I don't want his hold fart self to be right about breaking up with her solving all his problems either I actually would have gone for another equally toxic old fart having dumped her and gotten worse cause he learned nothing, then gotten our protagonist on board with the idea that yes he has to move on but not with holding on to bitterness or running from conversations that need to be had... just like Ramona needed to with her exes.

[@koulematon7359]

The video is nice, but it seems that for some reason you didn't talk about Gideon's use of the 'Glow'. We don't know when Scott got it, but most likely it was very, very early, my personal guess would be the beginning of the first volume. Gideon modified his memories and made him forget many things using it. Just remember how early Patel found out about Scott or how often Gideon was mentioned in the first volume. The 'Glow' didn't make him someone he wasn't before, but it amplified his 'foolishness'. The same goes for Ramona - her need to run was so strong, that she struggled to stay in Toronto, and ultimately left, even though Scott expressed his love for her so sincerely. Then she struggled to come back even that she wanted to. And of course she tried to run because of it in the middle of the final fight. Ramona didn't learn from her past mistakes did or confront Nega Ramona like Scott did. That's why Scott tells her Wallace's words in the elevator, when she feels unsure about restarting their relationship. The League's purpose was to control Ramona's love life and Gideon was doing it the whole time, not just in the final fight. We can't ignore it, because it is a very important part of the story.

[@mugenbop]

I just didn’t include it because I would have had to have this segment in the video and it just didn’t flow well in the script, plus for readers who had never read it and went past spoilers I wanted to keep some of the major last chapter reveals undisclosed. Of course the glow is cool symbolism and important in the story just felt this video did not need that exposition dump
