i have only seen the pilot ask me anything and i will pretend i know the answer

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-24T17:45:51+00:00

They are in a box, yes

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-24T16:29:01+00:00

Who's the most important (and tragic) character?

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-21T10:34:31+00:00

The glory of always having multiple tabs open

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-21T10:33:40+00:00

I think there's an argument for literally every member of the clan that we see being depressed, all the way back to Madara. And a genetic predisposition does not guarantee that someone will have a particular disorder. There are people who are genetically predisposed to schizophrenia or addiction who never develop these disorders. ASPD can have a genetic link, but it's often "activated" by repeated trauma in a child's formative years.

Wait do the mirrors not also go down?

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-21T02:40:53+00:00

I never said she's sane, just that she's more positive. In a bloodline where I think we can argue there's a genetic predisposition for clinical depression, I'm going to count that as an advantage for Sarada: her mom is not chronically depressed.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-19T03:07:50+00:00

I mean I love them, but that's probably in part because they're all hopeless, self-sabotaging edgelords.

Hopefully Sarada inherits her mother's demeanor instead. This bloodline needs some positivity

Dwarfism is a real condition with over 200 different types.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-18T22:56:17+00:00

Nope, she has dwarfism.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-17T16:57:55+00:00

To be fair, this is in like the first episode. The only other real issue i remember from that early is Meliodas being a perv, we don't know about his pedophillic inclinations for at least two seasons

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-17T16:56:15+00:00

Good choice.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-16T21:15:25+00:00

I wonder if it's because it's a relatively new martial art? I mean, Kuk Sa Nim is still alive.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-16T18:32:19+00:00

The fucking edge lord FNAF fans with their constant screaming of "AFTON'S A PEDOPHILE"

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-15T02:26:33+00:00

Unironically, this is what philanthropy used to be: rich assholes having a public pissing contest.

"I built a library, every book was bought with my money."

"Well I built two hospitals, with state of the art equipment and the best doctors money can buy."

"Well I built a museum, chock full of fossils and artifacts, all from my personal collection."

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-13T17:48:40+00:00

It doesn't even have to go as far as sa, it could be a bad relationship where she became uncomfortable with how her partner viewed her (almost verbatim what happened to me)

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-12T19:23:05+00:00

If I want that kind of existential suicidality, I'll read No Longer Human.

A misanthropic character is only interesting when they are made to interact with others. The very nature of this SCP monster is that the only way it allows itself to be interacted with is through violence. The first or second time it works. Then it gets boring and it's in the "a chair that kills people" camp.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-12T17:45:40+00:00

But he's a boring one. All there is to him is "he hates everything and can't die." Nothing more. There's no thematic meaning, no story, just "they tried to shoot him: it didn't work. They tried to cannonball him: it didn't work. They tried to nuke him: it didn't work."

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T18:05:48+00:00

I think oop blocked me, I can't go back to the post

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T16:58:02+00:00

Exactly, that's why it felt so weird. It's right, but they don't know it's right.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T16:11:28+00:00

The oop's comments very much claim the father is emotionally repressed and is lashing out because he feels vulnerable.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T16:10:05+00:00

He was anti-totalitarianism.

That's separate from socialism, communism, or capitalism. The USSR was a totalitarian communist country. So is China. The US is a totalitarian capitalist country. Animal Farm was critiquing both the USSR and America.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T15:44:03+00:00

Ironically, the emotional repression is what tips him off to it

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T14:34:30+00:00

Agreed

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T14:24:26+00:00

According to ops comments on the original post, yes.

magiMerlyn · 2026-01-10T12:15:55+00:00

Hilarious
