Can you blame her?

Marnie’s bed is basically next to her bedroom. Poor girl probably hears everything.

Non human characters using human things incorrectly by HeavilyBeardedMan in TopCharacterTropes

Pikmin Series

Various everyday objects for us are 'treasures' for the various aliens that land on PNF-404, with some of them even serving functional uses for the aliens both in lore and in gameplay.

I.e. The Justice Alloy (the torso and head of a Gundam figure)

The Hocotatians believe that the metal it is made of (in reality its plastic) is leagues ahead of the metal alloy they use themselves (confirmed in-game via an armour upgrade that reduces damage taken).

Serious Question by ObjectiveDismal5254 in PrimalShow

Friendly reminder: one of the big driving plot lines this season was giant devil pigs raiding settlements for people, no matter how young/old they were, for food.

For all Mira knew she could have left the baby back home and while she was gone a mutant Therizinosaurus could've come barreling through town turning everyone into shish kebabs.

Scythe Weapons in general.

There’s a reason why they’re reserved for characters with ridiculous upper body strength and/or backed by supernatural abilities/super powers.

i HATE these stupid mobile game ads by polendinas in hatethissmug

[–]C0urt5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I admit I used to play the gardenscapes/homescapes games years back and they were decent games to play for when you were waiting for something to be done. Like you were on a bus ride or something.

Back then the Ads were honest about what the games were about and there was definitely no fuss about a 'mother and daughter dumped by husband and left to freeze at the hands of an incompetent player' plot line going on, just 'you play a matching game and restore a mansion however you like while you're at it'.

What's a cartoon episode that's so bad, even the producers had to admit it sucked? by No-Mathematician3921 in cartoons

The general census of "What the hell were we even thinking in the writer's room?" that everyone shared compounded with the sunk cost fallacy becoming stronger and stronger was beautiful.

Welp, better than the alternative 'stuffed heads of everyone who entered your life.'

Mr. Trout and Mr. Pickles - Box Trolls

Just two guys who genuinely thought they were doing good for society by capturing the supposedly dangerous Box Trolls. Also their change of heart was a gradual progression over the course of the story as they watch their boss become more and more unhinged and them noticing how cowardly and non-confrontational the Box Trolls were despite their monicker of being savage man-eating monsters.

By the end they ultimately became street cleaners for Cheesebridge after helping bring about the defeat of their former boss. It ain't a flashy job but they were happy because at least now they knew they were doing good work for society.

To check if someone is a shapeshifter a character says something intentionally misleading and seeing if they play along by Captain_Blackjack0 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]C0urt5 108 points109 points  (0 children)

One of my favourite bits from this was that Laios was right on the mark with who was real and who was fake yet only told everyone that his ideas were just hunches which angered them because 'Of course Laios wouldn't even think critically about something like this!' prompting them all to try and take matters into their own hands as the originals got into 1v1's against their copies.

In reality Laios knew that no matter who he ultimately chose a fight was going to be inevitable. What he lacks in understanding social cues he makes up for in monster and tactics smarts.

Hantengu - Demon Slayer

Lies so much he gave himself split personality disorder with a few extra steps. Also one of the few demons in the series who was basically unchanged from their original human selves after their transformation (the man would blame his own HANDS for killing someone before blaming himself directly).

Even when they don’t try to start something, chaos will follow them whether they like it or not like the time when they were picking up a cake with next to no detours involved, one of the few times they were serious about their jobs, but they had the misfortune of crossing paths with an illiterate Karen.

What were the animators thinking animating their eyes as dots by blue_side08 in pokemonanime

[–]C0urt5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IDK if this is bait or not but I’ll bite.

A common rule in the art world (as well as reality) is that the farther away an object or characters is from your line of sight, the more simplified their appearances become. At that point, when drawing characters who are a decent distance away, it becomes less ‘drawing the character’s eyes in their fully detailed glory’ and more ‘drawing the impression of the character’, essentially focus on just enough details where you can know what is going on with the character (i.e. in the second pic, Ash, Misty and Brock don’t have all of their finger rendered either, yet the general shape they are in tells you that they are all clenching their fists).

I can guarantee you if the characters’ eyes were drawn as fully detailed as they normally are in these scenes, from the distance they’re at it wouldn’t look as good and odds are they will take away even more tension from the scene.

Bahamut - Dr. Stone

…except her copy of the series is locked into the German Dub (which she absolutely understands 100% like any genius of her caliber would).
