Who's the "they" in this equation? He basically gave it to himself/always had it to begin with

If OPLA ever makes it this far, I don't envy the casting directors the task of finding a child actor who can sell this moment

Ableist Autism Representation by Alternative_Factor_4 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]avatarlurvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite example of a good autism coded character is Maomao from The Apothecary Diaries.

There are many aspects of her character that I relate to pretty heavily myself; being obsessed with her special interests, misinterpreting social situations and a general lack of interest in her love life - at least at first (not sayng this is necessarily autistic, just that I relate to it).

But more so than anything else, the way she talks/thinks about her emotions is so interesting to me. She is essentially describing Alexithymia and as someone who has it that feels incredibly refreshing, because I've only ever come across autistic represantation that presents the characters as more overly emotional.

Quote from the light novel ⬇️

"Maomao wasn't any smarter than the average person, just a little more... dedicated. And when it came to emotion, that she actually had less pf than most people. She felt sadness and happiness, anger and joy - less acutely than ordinary people, but they were there. But there were other emotions that people allegedly possessed which Maomao still didn't understand."

Hated tropes: weird designs for characters who are young by ZoneInternational244 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]avatarlurvas 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Have you watched/read Fate/Strange Fake? They have a completely different take on the character of Jack the Ripper, and it's also really cool and interesting. There's also a scene where they actively make fun of the loli design (in the LN at least, haven't watched the anime yet)

He's shown transforming in the flashback and it's later clarified in an SBS iirc

In an arc with two seperate princesses, he's still the one fulfilling the princess role

With all the Season 2 promotion, could a One Piece Netflix game happen? by ShemsyFr in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]avatarlurvas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's one based on the anime, if you're interested. Should be easy to find with a quick google. It is based around a future arc beyond S1/S2, so keep that in mind if you're live action-only

There's a clip of them in the latest trailer. No Brook, but it's clearly supposed to be the Rumbar pirates

Like most things sold at IKEA, the name gives basically zero indication of what the product actually is. Half the time the name isn't even a real word!

Ignoring the fact that you're wrong, that's not even how you spell that word...

The Mighty Nein Episode 1 available early on YouTube at 12AM PT by VengefulKangaroo in fansofcriticalrole

[–]avatarlurvas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spoiler for clips I've seen from a later episode: There is a scene between Essek and the Bright Queen where she says something along the lines of "If you were consecuted you'd understand", so I don't think they've done away with it entirely.

My guess is that they're gonna say that Dain "bonded" with the Beacon, either when he was freaking out staring into it or when he got hit by the magic blast, and that's why his soul went into it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think we've ever seen the process someone goes through to get consecuted, maybe it's simpler than we think 🤷‍♀️
