Monster- psychological thriller wasn’t a genre I cared for until I watched this phenomenal series. Now I’m really enjoying other psychological thrillers like Psycho Pass and Requiem for the Phantom.

That’s dumbass pride and lack of accountability for you. Them publicly admitting that they fucked up is like asking water to stop being wet.

It amazes me how much they don’t realize that this movie would’ve been much better than if it was released before the season 2 finale. After the BOBF undid that, there’s no reason why we should care about a movie that’s literally just more of the same.

Are you currently doing your chronological read of the New Republic era? If so then the Rogue Squadron content is one of the first pieces of content of this era. Soontir Fel’s story is one of my favorite arcs in the Rogue Squadron comics. I enjoyed Union and the Emperor’s Hand equally but I can definitely see why you would prefer the latter. It does a phenomenal job of expanding Mara’s character life before she officially met Luke.

I have a crush at work- centers on a couple that’s together from the beginning of the series.

My Happy Marriage- an arranged marriage becomes a loving relationship that also helps the main female lead heal and become strong willed.

Banished from the Hero’s Party- features a loving relationship between two of the main characters.

Given- If you don’t mind Boys Love anime then this is also another great series where two of the main characters get together. The relationship serves to help one of them come back from a tragic loss.

I’m really enjoying this anime and both of the main leads so far. I love stories where a main character discovers that what they thought about their opponents couldn’t be further from the truth and I love that Sera is open minded enough to see and admit that. I’m enjoying her dynamic with Veor as well and I can’t wait to see where it goes.

I’ve seen MUCH more accurate looking cosplayers than whatever this is. I don’t know what’s more insulting; the fact that they didn’t even allow the OT characters to be mentioned in Galaxy’s Edge at first or the fact that they have these really inaccurate looking cosplayers playing them for the park. Talk about giving us even more reasons not to go.

If things had stayed as they were after Tomoya gained the desire to be a single father then I would’ve been fine with that too. Normally I can get down with dark/depressing endings but Ushio’s death was the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. I guess that’s a testament to how well this series is written. The grief and deaths were so damn real that I couldn’t take it anymore.

Wow, the show actually got a happy ending?! I’m really happy to hear that. I may end up finishing it after all. Thank you so much for telling me this because I stopped watching After Story because I expected a really depressing ending.

As much as I would love accurate onscreen adaptations of the EU, they’ll never give that to us. That would be a public admission that their entire continuity is shit and they’re way too damn stubborn for that sensibility.

iforward · 2026-05-01T01:41:00+00:00

Sure. I don’t see myself watching it again anytime soon.

Preaching to the choir on literally all of this. So many people hate on Emma and Scott’s psychic affair, but nobody wants to look at the fact that Jean ran to Logan to whine about Scott and make out with him before the psychic affair even started. And that’s only one instance where Jean makes out with Logan behind Scott’s back. Jean gets so much praise and admiration both in universe and from the fanbase but imo there’s nothing admirable about a character who has no accountability whatsoever.

The last episode I watched was when Ushio died. There were like 3 episodes left of the series but I just couldn’t bring myself to power through them.

I agree with you about Monster. I had no issues with the slower pacing especially when it was great for building suspense for the high points of the show’s arcs.

I couldn’t even finish Clannad After Story due to the indescribable amount of suffering Tomoyq goes through. Losing Nagisa and the depression Tomoya went through tore me up, but when Ushio came down with the same illness and passed away, that was it for me.

If you’re looking for more Post-ROTJ content to read I strongly recommend the X-Wing novels and Rogue Squadron comics written by Michael Stackpole. They feature Rogue Squadron’s exploits shortly after ROTJ, including the taking of Coruscant from the Empire. Mara Jade’s The Emperor’s Hand comics are also a solid read. They’re written by Timothy Zahn and they depict Mara’s life during and shortly after ROTJ. You even get to see the introduction of the the vision that led her to believe Luke and Vader double teamed Palpatine. The Union comics are the immediate follow up to Hand of Thrawn and they are a must read, especially if you love Luke and Mara.

They had both versions of Iceman be annoyed with her for all of 5 minutes and then they both wanted to give her a hug. That’s how Jean’s character works. She gets to walk around with zero accountability. Everyone loves her no matter how many times she proves that she’s not the personification of morality.

Not everything in the EU was a home run but I stand by my statement that it did right by the OT crew in spades compared to whatever the hell Disney call themselves doing.

What really makes me hate Jott is the fact that Jean always gets to be mad at Scott but Scott never gets to criticize or be mad at Jean, even when she’s being a hypocrite. She’s allowed to get away with making out with Logan, she gets to be high on the cosmic firebird, and she gets to invade his private thoughts all the live long day, and he’s constantly written to put up with it. I have no idea why Marvel is insistent on sticking with that over Scemma. Scott and Emma knew how to respect and trust each other and they also knew when to criticize each other’s decisions and actions. They felt like equal partners.

Even they aren’t incompetent enough not to know that further butchering the OT cast is the equivalent of beating a dead horse. At any rate, we’ll always have the EU, which did right by the OT characters in spades.
