twilight guardian

I make longform videos. Very slow. Part of Team JYCT podcast and cohost of another upcoming podcast. Digimon is my passion.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

My first long-form video! An extensive look at the influence of, contemporaries with, and early history of Digimon.

@Recursion_Agent Back in my day we used to call those "vacations"

@Apu_Simpson25 Height in drawings are always exaggerated/cartoonified to show the difference in scale. In order to show that All Might is big and strong, he's drawn much bigger than he would be irl compared to them. Especially for a moment like this where it's meant to show his absolute power

@dr3am5aremade0f Never said it was. Doesn't mean he didn't get negatively affected by that or that it wasn't the cause of the whole abuse in the first place. What makes you think I thought it was the same thing? You're making assumptions.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@Porecomesis You can always rewatch the show now that its over, or read the manga to refresh yourself, then come back and discuss. I am going off the full picture of it. We're also doing MHA deep dives on my channel now. Just started. Next week hopefully will be more organized lol

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@Porecomesis Gotta do this because the OP is a baby and blocked me for disagreeing with them lol
You could even say that what you thought was the "exploration" was the foundation for the darker elements themselves. Midoriya being bullied for being quirkless in episode 1 even.

[Porecomesis @Porecomesis]

@nakegotwilight @thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 Especially since, up to that point, the worldbuilding of 'My Hero Academia' felt fairly grounded in the tones it established from the start of the show, especially in the curriculum of UA. They felt self-aware and explorative of day-to-day life in a hero world. 4/4

@Porecomesis No worries about the long-windedness. But I’m gonna have to do this because I find it too tedious to do long back and forth discussions through twitter so a screenshot it is.

@ireallyknowyu It is because you never learn the fundamentals of what goes into the art like anatomy. You just learn the outside structure and your art will suffer for it. I've seen it many times and you can always tell. It's good for shape practice that's about it.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@Porecomesis @thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 You said it's been a while since you watched the show? Because the show has never been exploring the day-to-day life in a hero world. We get hints to the darker elements as early as the end of season 1 with the USJ attack. Then we get Stain murdering heroes for not being pure 1/

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@Porecomesis @thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 What do you mean by the 'darker turn felt contrived'? Was the USJ attack, Hosu, the Camp, All Might v AFO, not 'dark enough'? The Shiei Hassaikai arc not dark? I'd like to understand your definition of dark in this case.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 I didn't. Mt. Lady was not corrupt. Endeavor was corrupted from his own feelings of inadequacy. Pay attention, please. There's a line that heroes are going to become irrelevant regardless. These are steps to the goal. They aren't there yet.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 The message there was to say that even if your motivation for doing something initially is self-motivated, it doesn't stop you from doing your job right, doesn't stop you from being a good person. Mt. Lady is the example of this.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 Endeavor's goal was to be strong enough so that no one would suffer the way he suffered when his father was killed saving a civilian. His goal got corrupted when he realized the limitations of his quirk. Mt. Lady proved you can still be a hero despite your selfish motivations.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 No it's not? Did you watch the ending? Did you not see the characters as adults all working hard in order to correct the mistakes and failings of the past? It's not perfect but they're actively working on changing things.

@SOJwriter Pretty sure it was stated in Chapter 2 of Philosopher's Stone that Harry always got bullied because Dudley was popular and turned kids against Harry through popularity or intimidation.

[twilight guardian @nakegotwilight]

@thefellafungus @Jobwreturns1 The systems that made villains were partially dismantled and were starting to be mended. I'm sorry the series took a realistic and not American approach where everything was perfectly fixed at the end and there were no problems remaining and instead they worked for their future.
