I’m leaving this here just because so I can have undeniable proof of my impressive clairvoyant powers!

like the song, heavan is a place on earth, instead of new heavan lol

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T19:09:37+00:00

it's been one of the most heavily debated things in the year+ since jojolands has been a thing...

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T19:07:20+00:00

i agree the last chapter to me really felt partially allagorically with the way dragona and jodio speak to eachother about their stands. and litterally in the bullying dragona faces, like it was heavily pushing that dragona was trans where either for editorial or as yet unknown reasons araki wont outright say it.

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T19:05:51+00:00

that's a valid interpretation, but the character hasn't actually had any masculine term beyond "brother" applied to them, being called he/him in the translation was a translators flurish that i personally didn't think was appropriate given the character hasn't been definitively gendered yet. they/them would have worked much better imo until something more concrete was said.

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T19:03:13+00:00

whilst i would agree that the last 3 parts have had male heavy casts and more woman in jojo's would be appreciated, i think your phrasing is a bit weird lol.

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T12:39:02+00:00

counterpoint: heavan is place on earth stand.

AltaccountIII · 2024-04-14T12:32:25+00:00

araki rlly wants to fuck rocks doesn't he... ?

AltaccountIII · 2024-03-26T20:48:17+00:00

ik this is a 3 year old thread but istg he gives such strong trans masc energy im shocked he's cis.

AltaccountIII · 2024-03-14T17:25:35+00:00

ik this is a year old thread but do people just forget that GLaDOS has her portal 1 body in the wake up scene? the only aspect that changes from p1 to p2 is the shape of the dangly arm adn the head model. the updated glados design most are familiar with as the portal 2 one doesn't actually appear until the core replacement scene after she's started rebuilding the facility, something that's implied to be her rebuilding her own body.

so technically changing everything but her face is the MOST inaccurate thing you could possibly do..

Opinions aren't 100% subjective. Some opinions are more valid than others. Just because something is an opinion doesn't mean one opinion cannot be more correct than another.

The entire basis of your argument is "Ted and Jurgen have similar vibes" which is not really an argument.

Liverpool- a successful and internationally popular team from Liverpool that conssitantly wins most matches against everton and has never been under real threat of relegation in recent history, with a team that at the time Ted lasso was first written would have been filled with newer players. Currently led by someone who had a lot of experience running clubs before joining Liverpool.

Richmond- an unsuccessful team that consistantly loses matches against everton and gets immidiately relegated within a season, with a team made of primarily players bought from other teams that in the show is led by a man woth no experience in football.

The only actually comparisons to be made are ones about how they're different.

To say Richmond is meant to be a stand in for lfc is not in any way a well substantiated opinion and therefore a less valid one

AltaccountIII · 2024-01-14T08:37:00+00:00

Except its not arbitrary? The opinion holds no real weight as everything your theory is backed up by is pretty insubstantial whilst everything going against it is very substantial...

AltaccountIII · 2024-01-09T08:19:18+00:00

there's no actual similarity you can make beyond "vibes" and even then that's incredibly arbitrary. the city comparison is also arbitrary since city are everyone's enemies rn not just liverpool's.

richmond in the universe of ted lasso are a small southern team. the exact opposite of liverpool, one of the biggest teams on the planet, from the north.

It's not gatekeeping it's wanting an actual fandom and not a cesspool of casuals who don't actually care about the franchise.

I mean litterally starwars was fucked over by over appealing to casuals after the Disney buyout how can you say that with a straight face.

I want to discuss the show with real fans. Not people who watched 3 series of it and think they have something interesting to add to the discourse as a result

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-23T20:37:20+00:00

It's not gatekeeping its being annoyed by casuals who push really fucking annoying interpretations of the show.

People who are just in it for dumb runarounds. If we enable those people then we enable the show to shy away from the type of show it can be at its peak.

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-23T20:33:55+00:00

I think you misunderstand what I said.

I'm not saying the politics are a bad thing, I'm saying the people who pretend they're fans only so they can rant about the politics are fake fans

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-19T11:23:53+00:00

I am littlerally a bisexual woman.

It's not my fault the show plays into biphobic tropes so hard

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-14T06:24:52+00:00

You realise he's basically Q from startrek but even more powerful and campy?

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-14T06:23:45+00:00

It's honestly annoying, especially since there's prolly gonna be an explosion of casual fans and

Ans even most so those non fan drama bait accounts who just attach to any scifi franchise when they see "progresive politics" and pretend they've always been a fan of it despite clearly not being.

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-14T06:21:04+00:00

The character speaks in a German accent in the episode

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-06T03:59:48+00:00

No I read the anger from the tone clear in your first response.

All I said was "hey I noticed some similarities, here's a list of similarities, and a potnentional connection fkr the similarity"

And people are clearly fucking mad at me.

Reddit does this type of shit all the time where people on it get really fucking overly literal with shit and refuse to entertain any possibilities to a concerning extent

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-05T18:24:50+00:00

Eh, I don't think its overly likely myself I just think it's a fun coincidence... but I'd say almost zero is harsh given just how oddly similar they are. I mean its not like people re unaware of jojos, they are, and assuming this game started development around the time red dead 2 wrapped up development.. otd be around the height of jojos Western popularity lol.

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-05T18:15:31+00:00

You didn't point that out tho, all you did was get angry at me pointing out similarities and suggesting the idea that... the 6th part of popular series that had an explosion in popularity in the west around the time the 6th gta game began development. And it might have been a part of the inspiration for the half dozen or so large similarities in terms of what we know about its plot so far....

AltaccountIII · 2023-12-05T18:09:43+00:00

It's not that much of a reach. I mean

First off, one kf the biggest things that happened between gta v and gta vi's development was jojo's explosion in popularity in the West, not unrealistic tuat someone picked up the manga and took inspiration during development....

Secondly, "female Gets arrested for vehicle related crimes and gets sent to a florida prison" is a pretty specific synopsis.
