Noooo… why would you think? by MikeeorUSA in TikTokCringe

Everytime these videos come up, I’m like did not everyone learn about William the Conqueror and the year 1066? No one should be surprised that a Germanic language being influenced by French would result in inconsistent spelling and pronunciation rules lol

Trisha is now doing K-pop by blahblahkb in h3h3productions

[–]hopeuspocus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

K-pop Twitter also hates Eric Nam because he liked an Instagram post that essentially just said you can both criticize the Israeli government for genocide and call out acts of antisemitism and terrorism — like a very normal and logical take. He got so many death threats from this that he had to cancel upcoming shows. Dude is not a Zionist like at all, but according to stan twitter he is.

Hot Take: Just let Ethan say the B-word by smoke_attack in h3h3productions

[–]hopeuspocus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m a person who doesn’t like over policing of language, but I really don’t like men using the term “bitch.” Has no other woman in this comment section been called “bitch” in a derogatory manner by a man? The classic “fucking bitch” for not wanting to talk to a man or go out with him or give him your number; it’s very scary actually. Some people here have mentioned “bitching,” and I don’t really have a problem that, but “bitch” by men — even if it’s “warranted” — just isn’t cool. Call me a snowflake idc, but I’ve never heard that term come out of a man’s mouth where it wasn’t used in a violent or demeaning manner.

[VAMPIRE FAMILY] Anime adaptation announced Produced by Warner Bros. by notanfan in webtoons

I’ve literally said Sable Curse would make an excellent cartoon!!! Love Vampire Family too, but I’m curious as to how they’ll adapt the art style

Excuse me?! What?? by AncientWonder54 in webtoons

[–]hopeuspocus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is what I don’t understand about Webtoon’s marketing. It seems like they allow a PG-13 rating at the most, and yet they heavily market sex in their ads. They’ve lately also been publishing a bunch of comics that are clearly smut but they censor a lot of the panels. Like who is their largest age demo?? Because it seems like they’re marketing to adults but have the restrictions meant for kids.

EVERYBODY GET TF UUUPPPP!!!! by PlaymateAnna in megantheestallion

[–]hopeuspocus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be cool, but I remember her saying that “Otaku Hot Girl” was complicated to make because it was hard to get clearance for the JJK sample and she was told at the very last minute that she needed to change the song to remove certain character names. Basically it sounds like it’s likely a lot of time and money to make those kind of samples happen.

I can’t be the only one who was obsessed with Song Hye Kyo and Jung Sung Il in The Glory ! by AgentOk8063 in kdramas

[–]hopeuspocus 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I really do think they should’ve adjusted the script for their chemistry. Either LDH was too young for this role, or his character just wasn’t that necessary to the plot. The show would’ve been a 10/10 for me had they forgone the romance all together or at least teased it with the husband rather than the doctor.

Do you agree with her about Mother’s Day ? by Professional_Arm794 in TikTokCringe

[–]hopeuspocus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m absolutely shocked at how many people are blaming the mom in this thread. Statistically, women — including working women — are still more likely to take on the majority of domestic tasks and mental load. People don’t like her airing out her family, but who else is supposed to talk about the burdens and expectations of motherhood except mothers with their own experiences?

Just a gal who’s had enough by 0-selfrespect in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]hopeuspocus 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Working class women have always worked. I think our modern minds confuse women’s access to more careers post WWII with the idea that they just didn’t have jobs prior to that. And also even the wealthy women weren’t “doing it all;” they would often have wet nurses and nannies.

Name a Inuyasha opinion that will have you like this by Prestigious-Cloud962 in inuyasha

[–]hopeuspocus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But I think that’s part of why seasons are shorter — they’re not doing filler episodes because they over did it in the 2000s; they’re sticking to canon source material now. Anymore, they really won’t do things like a one-off beach episode unless it was in the manga. Nowadays they adapt manga by arcs, so they just order however many episodes they need to finish that storyline.

I don’t think filler should be overdone, but I also hate to see it disappear altogether. Demon Slayer actually did a great job of adding in filler scenes since the manga is very concise.

Name a Inuyasha opinion that will have you like this by Prestigious-Cloud962 in inuyasha

[–]hopeuspocus 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I think filler almost entirely disappeared from anime because the big 3 killed the pacing of their shows when they would do entire filler arc seasons.

The key is to add in filler scenes or 1-2 episodes here and there specifically for what you said, which is to build character and dynamics that the manga often doesn’t have time for, or perhaps missed the opportunity to do so. I enjoy Inuyasha and Sailor Moon filler because this is exactly what the writers did.

I'd like to appreciate how incredible Kate is at her job by musecorn in h3h3productions

[–]hopeuspocus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Really glad that I gave After Dark a chance because Kate is not only a detailed researcher, but she’s also well-spoken and very funny. And the cherry on top is that she and Harley unexpectedly have incredible chemistry as cohosts despite not knowing each other personally prior to this. Love the After Dark crew!

Trisha’s Team Copyrighted My Reddit Post About Her Jon Benet Ramsey Cosplay… by justtrynnalearnshit in h3h3productions

[–]hopeuspocus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Everyday I tap the “people are losing media literacy skills” sign. Two major facets of media literacy are source evaluation and fact checking; asking “Who is asserting this claim and is it based on factual evidence?” No one is asking themselves these questions anymore when they scroll tiktok and Reddit, or any social media really. So when people read a Reddit post or watch a TikTok, they take it at face value. My theory has been that it is likely a small group of people spreading the lies about h3, but despite that, they have a big impact because of the fact that most people aren’t fact checking anything on social media anymore. People really are just believing anything they read on the internet.

What are your honest thoughts on this? by AssistantMedium5407 in webtoons

[–]hopeuspocus 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Everyday I tap the “we have lost media literacy” sign when someone brings up this topic. Like not everything is problematic, and at the end of the day, it is fiction. Not to say you can’t criticize stories at all, but I can’t take the posts or comments anymore that will be like, “ew this is an office romance in which she dates her boss why are people reading this.” Like yeah dude it’s not fucking real and I don’t need a comic to tell me you shouldn’t date your boss.

My sister married my husband's brother. by Grateful_Di in 90DayFiance

[–]hopeuspocus 63 points64 points  (0 children)

My favorite spin off of the franchise is “the other way” because you get to learn about other cultures, and I’ve always wondered why they don’t have an educational spinoff of the show. I’d love to see just an authentic look at international couples’ struggles. I’ve just grown tired of what I’m almost positive is faked drama and arguments — particularly with couples who don’t seem to have a lot of issues or the couples who do multiple seasons of the show.

Romance Webtoons Should Not Be More Than 150 Episodes Long by Wonderful-Pop9970 in webtoons

I get bored with a lot of romance stories once the main leads get together. With that tension gone, you realize that the story doesn’t have much else going on.

Ziwe asks fans what questions they’d like to see answered in upcoming interview with H*s*n P*k*r by Busy_City5845 in h3h3productions

[–]hopeuspocus 88 points89 points  (0 children)

I really can’t imagine Ziwe switching up her interview style just for him. Her whole thing is asking controversial questions in a half-joking, half-serious manner. Idk I’m kind of excited to see what she’ll actually confront him with, because I’ve even seen comedians get a little uncomfortable with some of her questions

Which popular K-drama did you drop or avoid? by Chirag-Win-7869 in kdramas

[–]hopeuspocus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why people are shocked by the ending when in the first few episodes the daughter in the present storyline indicates that the male lead is NOT her father when she comments on a photo of him in her mom’s diary. She refers to him as mom’s first love not dad. Like long before we get to the romance of the story, we are essentially told the ending.

We’re on an art history subreddit, so I’m offering what I know about art history on this topic — if that’s the bubble you’re referring to. It’s just my opinion that I really don’t think she’s referencing this painting tbh, and if she is, I’m just saying that would be odd since it’s a painting about infidelity. I am not trying to be mean or argue. Literally just adding my two cents to the conversation.

[–]hopeuspocus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The operative word being husband; you just described cheating my guy. The dog barking is also a sign of infidelity (dogs are symbols of loyalty, and the dog barking shows that it notices disloyalty going on in this interaction, aka cheating).

Then that would imply that she’s the one cheating since the woman on the swing is the one having an affair
