I used to list my fandoms here, but then Tumblr wooed me into so many new ones and got me back into old ones and now I'm drowning in feels. On a regular day, you can expect to encounter anime, manga, cartoons, superheroes, butts, and strawberry desserts, so if you don't like any of that stuff, this blog probably ain't your cuppa.
Okay um…
So, I’m a new fan and maybe I’m not the right person to be making this post but…
It’s okay if you were drawn into GLTAS for the Razaya(it’s what drew me in), and it’s also okay that you ONLY really like it for the Razaya(your loss, though), but can we PLEASE stop with the posts that place GLTAS’s worth SOLELY on Razaya?
This show is amazing. It’s compelling. It’s well written. The facial expressions alone deserve a damn award. I regret not watching it just because I judged it harshly for being CG. This is a prime example of CG done beautifully.
I saw a post that said something about Razaya being the only feel worthy thing in the entirety of GLTAS.
Um.
List of things that are feel worthy AND compelling:
- Razaya
- Shyr Rev
- Kilowag and the loss of his planet
- Razer and his loss of Ilana
- Razer’s character development on the whole
- Hal and Carol
- Sympathy for the shit that happened to the Red Lanterns, despite the things they’ve done
- Iolande and her brother having that terrible sibling rift
- Aya AND EMOTIONS
- Steam Lantern confessing he didn’t kill the Anti-Moniter, only to have everyone still cheer and hail him as a true hero
- Ganthet being banished
- The facial expressions alone are compelling
- The story overall is flawless. Time is never spent unnecessarily on things and the pace is fabulous; not too fast, not too slow.
So yeah.
Don’t. If you don’t find those things compelling… well, idk how to please you? But you’re missing out on a lot of good stuff here.
GLTAS’s success does not depend purely on Razaya or it’s outcome, nor does the entire show revolve around them. They’re an important piece of the puzzle, yes, but… yeah, please don’t degrade this series and it’s ingenuity, kay?
That’s rude and quite frankly an insult to Giancarlo and every other person that puts blood, sweat, and tears into this awesome package of CG animation.
No, that’s a perfectly acceptable thing for any fan to say, regardless of how long you’ve been watching it. And I have to admit, from spending years in the YGO fandom, I’m used to my OTPs not ever being completely canon, and I’m perfectly okay with that because it means more shipping flexibility.
But to kill off the only female main character in the show, my precious little green and white robaby? All I’m saying is she best be coming back as a Black Lantern or something because she’s been mangled onscreen twice now and, don’t get me wrong, I get that. Because she’s the robot character and she can be restored to “full health” with replacement parts while the rest of the crew can’t. But just killing her off horrifically like that and using her death as angst fodder for the other characters dives off into fridge-stuffing territory, and I was really enjoying how the writers steered away from that.
In times past, I’ve stuck around and watched other shows that I’ve been heavily invested in long after the writing dropped off just to see how the story ended, but I don’t know if I could do it for GLTAS. Not when there’s the animated movies and the original comics to fall back on and that movie with Ryan Reynolds that nobody likes talking about.
Basically, I’m hoping against hope that that screencap of black!Aya standing behind Atrocitus is the real deal. She doesn’t have to get with Razer, but she does have to stay badass.
whoa what the fuck why is shit popping out on my dash now how do i turn it off

here’s a fix that let’s you downgrade if you use google chrome
Unfortunately, no, not since TS got fixed for Firefox. s;dkjfgasfg I hate switching broswers just for this one shitty website oh my god.
SHIT FUCK HELL BITCH ASS
I’m gonna have to get out the tank so I can use the heater.
My house is too cold and my fishy might be dying.
Women don’t owe you anything by virtue of being women. Female cosplayers don’t owe you anything by virtue of being dressed as your favorite character. Female fans don’t owe you anything by virtue of liking the same shit you do. Attractive female people of any kind don’t owe you anything just because you think you “deserve” a hot girlfriend.
We are PEOPLE—not OBJECTS—and we have just as much a right to dress up as our favorite characters as you do, regardless of our physical appearance or your personal approval. Perhaps the reason none of these girls give you the time of day is because you talk about them like they’re sex toys or trophies meant to be won.
…the president’s second term may provide another chance for him to push his vision for high-speed passenger rail, which was stalled by Congress’ refusal to keep paying for it.
more.
Do you even know how much I would love for this to be implemented…
Not having to pony up hundreds of dollars to visit people on the other side of the continent, endure hours-long claustrophobic car rides, AND enjoy all the benefits of a train ride? SIGN ME UP YO
God I’d need this in a bad way, it’d make seeing my family 100 times easier.
I don’t know how we’re going to pay for it, but I do know that I would love it.
I can’t get a direct flight from Seattle to Pittsburgh anyway, but I could fly to Chicago and then take the train in and that would be rad. Also the train to Portland is already just like 3 hours if they made that high-speed that would be AWESOME
Oh, PLEASE. This would be the best thing ever. Plane rides are expensive, gas is expensive, I don’t even have a car, and I want to see my fucking boyfriend more than once or twice a year.
I want this
If they make a train from Sacramento to Los Angeles, my life would be completed.
OH LOOK! No fucking stations anywhere near me.
WHY DOES THIS NOT SURPRISE ME.
Yeah, that’s right, pass right by my fucking house without stopping. I mean, it’s not like I would actually like to use this son of a bitch to travel or anything.
Until there’s some plans to add a station in Memphis or Paducah (or here would be really nice), I will continue to not give a fuck.

I think I’m going to cry.
The only guy on the Tennessee Senate ticket who doesn’t make me want to bash my face in is this David Gatchell motherfucker, and that’s because he’s running on a “None of the Above” platform.
And I say this as someone who loves Jesus, fishing, and the right to bear arms.
Have you ever read one of those fanfics where…
The plot’s intriguing, the pacing is good, the writing style is fluid… but then the author tries to shoehorn in a romance. And it’s your OTP! But it’s rushed and poorly characterized, and then they try to write in a sex scene and oh god what the hell penises don’t do that what are you writing why are they calling each other stupid ooc pet names no go back to the plot stop
I really fucking hate that our country still has the electoral college. How is it even close to fair that only people in Ohio and Florida get to decide who our president is?
Fucking Casey Anthony’s vote has more sway over the outcome of this election than mine.
Why is it every time I find an awesome fanfic and GLORY HALLELUJAH it’s been updated regularly and recently, that’s the point at which it gets suddenly abandoned without a single note from the author?
EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. TIME.
Does my viewing it put a hex on the writer? Do my eyes seeing the words turn every letter into some kind of runic curse forbidding the completion of the story?
Big, black, and not dead
A cricket jumped in my room
UNLEASH THE HOT SHOT
I’m sorry guys but I really don’t want to get a fricking video game console to watch your shows. I’d rather buy the expensive bluerays over that
Oh yeah and clearly the flop that the Funianimation channel had (which was a similar deal) didn’t teach you anything
- WTF why would you even who greenlit this stupid shit
- People buy game consoles to play GAMES.
- If I’m paying for a subscription to one fucking channel, I expect that fucking channel not to bombard me with fucking advertisements. Regular Hulu’s ads don’t bother me because I don’t have to pay a special fee to access Hulu’s website. For this shit, not only would I have to pay for an internet hook-up to my console, but I wouldn’t even be able at least pick the show that I’m going to have to sit through ads for.
- You’re competing against satellite TV, cable, DVD sales, DVD rentals, Hulu, Netflix, and internet piracy.
- Your business model is offering nothing new to the entertainment industry and is actually less convenient than the most common forms of media consumption.
- This is destined to fail horribly.
So, I’m staying over at my waifu’s house tonight…
…because I have a flat tire and my car jack fucking broke.
God is laughing at us.
FUCKING BROKEASS PIECE OF SHIT MOTHERFUCKING CUNTBITCH COCKSUCKER
I have what is shaping up to be a killer headache and I’m thirsty.
Unfortunately, the faucet in our kitchen is spitting out water with all kinds of little black flecks and nobody wants to fucking fix the bitch.
Should I:
[A] Drive to the store and buy one of those water filter pitcher things and force it into our fridge in spite of my mother’s protests
or
[B] Grab the daiquiri mix from the freezer and fix myself a drink even though it’s only lunchtime because fuck everything
duties ha contestado a tu publicación: Well, that was kind of a bullshit cop-out ending. …
it was less bullshit if you’ve seen the original series but it was still a copout
I mean, yeah, sure, I’m okay with the whole “You were ready to kill yourself, so we’re unlocking your powers before you do something stupid” thing, but within the span of two minutes? Come on. They could’ve done so much more with that!
I appreciate the plot movement and the fact that there’s not a bunch of fluff scenes for the sake of padding the runtime, but that just happened way too damn fast. The production team could’ve spread this exact same plot over twice as many episodes and it would’ve been perfectly fine, and the characters would’ve had a lot more room to develop and interact with each other. There’s nothing wrong with implying that something’s happened offscreen, but when there’s more development happening behind the camera than there is in front of it, we’ve got a fucking problem here.
I guess what I’m trying to say here is that Legend of Korra has a fucking excellent plot with goddamn terrible pacing. Who the fuck decided twelve episodes was enough for all this shit?
duties ha contestado a tu publicación: So, I’ve finally gotten around to watching the LoK finale and…
that’s because he’s Zuko’s voice actor (who’s 14 in Avatar) and nobody told him to deepen his voice because everybody would fangirl over hearing his voice again.
Oh, for the love of Christ.
REALLY?
That is some fucking bullshit.
