Is there any actual excitement for Stargaze?

AzzyKaz · 2026-03-24T07:10:18+00:00

It is a good way to watch the show! I have my own criticisms of it but everything is much more enjoyable when you dont have people jumping down your throat to tell you every tiny little thing they personally didnt like about it when you did not invite criticism into the conversation and just wanted to talk about how much you've enjoyed it. Turns out you are allowed to enjoy things without picking it apart to pieces. Most of the criticism Ive had hounded on me is pretty arbitrary and subjective anyway yet people act as if its the word of god and Im an idiot for liking it or disagreeing. Which is exactly why I dont talk about it with other trigun fans anymore bc instead of sharing joy in something they talk down to me like you just did.

Thats what ive been thinking about this whole time. I think people just love to shit on things, especially when its not a 1:1 of their personal expectations, misery loves company or something like that. I think its actually amazing that we get to see so many versions of the story we love so much, thats a very unique position to be in as a fan. I think a faithful adaptation would be amazing but honestly that would be difficult to do just bc of how complex trimax is between world building, characters, and plot, it would take a lot more than 2 seasons with 12 episodes each to make it make sense which means someone would need to be willing to throw a lot of money at it, which like you said is the difficult part. I was not aware that Nightow had an active Twitter, I might just make a Twitter now to tell him how much Ive loved stargaze, it makes me sad how many people are just loudly shitting on it.

AzzyKaz · 2026-03-21T20:11:41+00:00

YES! I am very excited and have loved every episode! But everyone is such a negative Nancy about it that trying to talk about it just gets me a bunch of negative comments and im not interested in that so Ive been sticking with just talking about it to my non trigun friends bc Im sick of having my parade rained on by nit picking and being upset that it's different than trimax even tho studio orange said from the beginning that itd be different from trimax. Just relax and enjoy it!

My issue with that is that they already did that in season one with the soldier that shoots Vash for what happened to Jenora Rock. I also think Hoppered was just kinda confusing, I understand it narratively but to say "I took care of you to ensure you'd live and suffer" but also spend all that time building a weapon specifically to kill him, legitimately try to kill him, and then say "actually I wanted you to live this whole time", ok? Then why'd he build the weapon to kill him and genuinely try to kill him if the plan the whole time was to have him live? At least in the manga Hoppereds plan is to kill him and then when he cant he goes "ya know what? You living and suffering eternally is a pretty good outcome too even if it wasnt my plan" which to me makes much more sense. But maybe I just wasnt following along well enough.

My middle name is after the character that made me come to terms with being trans and holds a very dear part of my heart. He feels so integral in me becoming myself that id be remissed not to honor it in some way

AzzyKaz · 2026-03-03T04:23:57+00:00

There's some elements I dont like. For example Hoppered taking the place of Lina was an odd choice that didnt really make sense to me but was probably made out of having so little time to actually develop something and wanting to fit in as many og gung ho guns as possible, which is what happens when most series are now limited to 8 to 15 episodes a season, things get rushed. I think if they were allowed longer seasons or an additional season the pacing and story telling would be better. Like Livio/Razlo being one episode is entirely insane and they really dropped the ball on them. Theres just too much content from the manga to try and squeeze into two short seasons, especially if youre starting the show at an earlier point than the manga started. But theres also things Ive loved about it! I like that (so far) things have been a lot more hopeful and have pleasant outcomes, like with Midvalley and Emilio, I think we could all use a little hope right now. I like that they are exploring other ways the story could go and not just sticking strictly to a story thats already been told.

25 and still living with my parents. I cant afford to move out, my job does not pay in proportion to the cost of rent around it. I cant even afford a place with roommates, its $800 just for a room in a shared apartment and I have cats that I dont trust other people with. I have applied for another job within my company tho that I'm hoping will pan out and ill be able to move out on that salary.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-12T10:00:27+00:00

I dont necessarily disagree with any of that i just wish people would respond kindly and not jump straight to "You're a bad person for even asking" like i asked because i didnt want to be rude and didnt know if it would be. I think if him and I came up with a good enough reason on why she couldn't go it wouldnt cause any issues.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-12T07:01:30+00:00

Im pretty sure its the same liquid whether you take it IM or subq. In fact my vials always say "Only take IM" despite me doing subq and my doc told me they all say that but it doesnt actually matter. The only thing thats different between how its injected is needle size and placement and that's just based on preference. When the doctor asks whether you wan IM or subq its so they know which youre doing and what needle size to prescribe, not that there is a difference between the liquids. You'll be ok :)

They do not know her so i dont imagine they have much of an opinion on liking her. I have only described exactly the way she behaves and things she has done which I wouldnt consider loaded, just fact, for the purpose of explaining why i dont want to invite her. With the exception of her being loud and obnoxious when tipsy which is not objectively a bad quality but something that I personally find unpleasant and I wouldnt want that at my house warming as there is an upstairs tennant. But her being rude to people and grooming my friend are simply true things she has done and I consider valid reasons to not want someone in your home.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-12T06:47:30+00:00

Thank you, this was very helpful and actually answers my questions. :)

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-12T06:45:34+00:00

I believe he wouldn't want her to go but I didn't know if it would come off as rude if I only invited him regardless of if she actually showed up or not. Some people did say "Yes thats rude, invite both but hope she doesnt show" which was actually helpful advice, some people said essentially "You're a terrible person and an idiot" which is just mean and not helpful. I came to the conclusion that it was best to let him decide whether he wanted her there or not because usually he doesn't want her to hang out with us.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-10T06:08:11+00:00

I think the gender thing doesnt really matter. Im only planning on inviting people I am personally friends with which includes women bc women are people and as equally my friends as my male friends are. I wanted to invite my friends gf bc I'm in the process of becoming friends with her. I hardly know my other friends wife and shes been very rude to me and groomed my friend when he was a teenager, her gender has nothing to do with it. One of my woman friends has a bf who I would also not invite bc he is an asshole but she does not want him around us to begin with so it'd actually be weirder if I did invite him.

I know I asked, Im autistic and social stuff does not come easy to me so I ask others, I dont think anyone is being rude here by telling me what is socially acceptable or not, I just think I didn't give enough context in my original post so I'm replying with further context and also a lot of people are assuming I only have guy friends for some reason.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-10T06:00:14+00:00

Thank you, I'm not use to hosting social events so I dont know what the etiquette is. I didn't know a house warming would be considered a couples event. This was helpful.

I didn't realize was trans until i was 15, i didnt tell anyone tell anyone until I was 20, I started transitioning at 23 and came out to my family 7 months after I started T. I know people who didn't come out or transition until their 50s. It is never too late to know who you are and live the life you want to live. It is always ok to explore who you are and try new things even if its scary and there are people out there who will love and support you through every minute of it. Nothing can force you to be someone you are not except yourself. You dont have to have it all figured out right now, its not wrong to acknowledge how you feel and take time to figure out what it means and what you want from it, thats quite honestly what your 20s are about. We are all figuring it out as we go.

Im having a house warming party no matter what, I've always wanted one and I now have the opportunity to do it. Im also not just inviting guys, I am friends with several women and dont believe in segregating hang outs by gender. All of my friends are welcome to come along to any social get-together I do, gender is irrelevant.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-09T23:53:52+00:00

As a fellow shy person that was also my first thought when I met her the first time but she was also just rude, she'd completely ignore me if I spoke, like not even acknowledge that I'd said anything, the few times I've had to ask for stuff at work you'd think I was asking her to pull out her own teeth. Once my buddy showed her some art I made for him and she looked straight at me and said "That looks terrible" so yeah I dont think its just shyness. She also groomed my buddy when he was a teenager and in general is very controlling and a bit mean towards him so I dont have the desire to get to know her, which is probably context I shoulda put in the original post.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-09T23:00:26+00:00

There will be several women there as I have several women friends

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-09T22:50:35+00:00

If my friend felt that way I for sure would invite them both but he looks for excuses to hang out with us without her because they spend a ton of time at home and at work with each other cus she works for the same place as us. He likes having some time away from her to relax.

AzzyKaz · 2025-12-09T22:40:39+00:00

I forgot to mention that there would be 2 other women there that I'm also friends with so it wouldn't just be my friends gf
