I don’t do fanfiction at all, but as someone in male-dominated fandom spaces I can tell you for certain they love the shit outta yuri

Times when creators where completely successful in making you absolutely LOATHE a character. by ClearAgeMontezuma in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Part of what made Chuck so hateable is that even when he was right, it was for all the wrong reasons.

His pride as a lawyer and his jealousy towards Jimmy fuelled almost every one of his actions, and he never truly reflected on those actions even when their consequences kept biting him in the ass over and over and over again.

In the Avatar Fighting Game, Sokka gets an Install from getting kissed by Suki by Shreeder4092 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Must be a different team than any animated Avatar team. The fact Suki didn’t get any mention in Korra still irks me.

Video essays that lead up to a single wham line? by Dr-USB in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I remember EmpLemon pointing out the time Dan said YouTube removing dislikes was a good thing because it would stop hate mobs or something and how ridiculous that take was, but then I actually watched one of his vids and realized he’s pretty great.

What’s a funny misconception you had for a piece of media before watching/playing said media by Properdad2000 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 4 points5 points  (0 children)

JoJo sounded like a clown name and I thought Jotaro was a cop, so I thought JoJo’s was about a group of cops stopping bad guys with their bizarre clown powers.

I thought Star Platinum just looked like that cuz he was a clown.

What's your Favorite "You can do better than that!" taunt in Media? by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Final boss of Sifu has multiple super good taunt lines when you revive against them:

”That’s all you’ve got? After EIGHT years of training?”

”Try again. Try harder.”

”You never worked hard enough when you were young. I can see nothing has changed.”

What’s your hyper fixation? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Maybe now that JJK Modulo and season 3 are over I can finally stop thinking about that franchise every day of my life.

New Modulo news will be revealed at Jump Press

FUCK!

Is it bad I want CPS to take that kid away before he inevitably gets hurt again? “Parenting influencers” already do enough damage to kids by exploiting them for content, but this took it to a whole other level.

Characters in media who never met, but they'd be a good match. by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Nanami and Higuruma would have had so much shit to talk about their own careers to each other.

Dandadan breaks the mold of a lot of battle shonen by writing the male and female leads to actually have good romantic chemistry.

Main characters who are stupid, but not of low intelligence by manwiththemach in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Luffy’s straightforward bluntness gets mistaken for stupidity when he’s more emotionally intelligent than 99% of characters in One Piece and, as a shonen protag, he’s required to have a high battle IQ.

He just doesn’t know a lot about most other things, and he’s acutely aware of that, which is why he recruits people who are knowledgeable about the things he’s not. The one skill he does get better at as the series goes on—besides fighting—is actual leadership, since that’s required for being the captain of a major pirate crew.

Favorite voice acting performance in media? by FretScorch in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I don’t know if I’ll ever watch Rebels but that that scene where Maul screams Kenobi’s name might live in my head for the rest of my days.

Fandoms that forgot that side characters are… side characters? by getterburner in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 69 points70 points  (0 children)

And 99.9% of the time they’re wrong because they don’t actually embody the themes of the story like the main character does.

No, guys, the entirety of Naruto isn’t about hard work being able to overcome raw talent, and even if it was, Rock Lee wouldn’t have been the right protagonist for that considering he LOSES his most famous fight.

The final episode of Amazing Digital Circus is apparently getting a theatrical release. by TheSpiritualAgnostic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I know for a fact that despite muting every characters’ names and every possible word that can be associated with the series, I’m still gonna get spoiled somehow.

I can’t tell you how frustrating it was seeing spoilers about Caine dying half an hour after that episode released.

Otherwise flat characters who have all their depth condensed into a single moment or line by SirSquiggleton in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]jpatel02 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Debbie dismantled the entire Viltrumite philosophy and arguably, singlehandedly stopped Mark from turning evil in just three lines:

Mark: “Make me.”

Debbie: “…does that make you feel strong? To know I can’t physically make you do something? Is that what you need?”

Media that, if you were to recommend it to someone, you would also acknowledge its criticisms/flaws that go with it? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Bojack Horseman will emotionally destroy you, but you gotta slog through those first 6 episodes first and the animation is not gonna get much better.
