I am glad fans are now more widely accepted, but sometimes I miss the old days when manga and cartoons were niche and geeky and seen as just kids' stuff. I don't care about them, I can't get into them, I don't want to know more, and I feel like they're everywhere I look.

S!B: How entitled is it of me to wish that things I don't like would be less popular?

I watched the Star Wars: The Clone Wars on mute because the sound of the voice actors wasn't close enough to the original actors. I play FF:VII Rebirth on mute because the sound of the voice actors wasn't close enough to the original voice actors. There are a lot of Youtubers with voices that grate on me, so I watch them on mute.

Once upon a time I just wouldn't have watched them, so it's really made me appreciate good subtitling and resent autogenerated garbage.

I headcanon the never-seen Adele Metzger as trans. I don't want to say as much because I fear the misunderstanding (oh, just because a woman is an ex-Marine, she can't be cis? etc, etc).

*I'm* trans. I just think it's comforting to imagine a somewhat butch trans woman being accepted as merely quirky but likeable, after moving to a small town in the late eighties!

Games thread!

Transcript - Sherlock Holmes (Granada TV series)

(Anonymous) 2025-10-13 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I liked BOTH the Granada series Watsons. They were different, to be sure. David Burke (#1) played it a bit more broadly, but honestly? I appreciated the touch of humor and playfulness it added to the Holmes/Watson relationship. Edward Hardwicke (#2) was more serious in the role, but also good, though I don't think he quite brought the same feel of "get your Webley and be ready to kick down this door" element. But I enjoy both Watsons equally.

Transcript - Star Trek (Deep Space Nine)

I find it both ironic and faintly hilarious that Avery Brooks' attempts to avoid the deadbeat dad stereotype hanging around Sisko's neck regarding the DS9 finale has actually made a large part of the DS9 fandom embrace it.

Streisand Effect is a bitch, y'all.

I'm unreasonably attracted to Flint from Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector

Transcript - Tomba 2

I wanna buy the Tomba 2 whoopie edition from limited run games but its just too pricey for me at $149 USD (shipping not included)

Doesn't help that I'm not American. I'll have to settle for the digital release (I'm poor AF)

I have no idea if there's a fan consensus on the two Watsons or what it is, but I agree with you. They're a little different, but not jarringly so, and both good.

I don't like wizards and dragons or romantasy stuff, and I am not a fantasy fan, and I'd love to not hear about the genre any more... but I can't imagine actually missing the days when most people dismissed all of fantasy as a genre as "for children," ignoring that stuff like LotR has always existed

I prefer the world with less people believing objectively untrue things, idk

You're mixing adult animation in with children's cartoons and anime in the secret image (not sure who actually made the secret or chose the background.) I don't know all of these but small children should definitely not be watching Attack on Titan or Hazbin Hotel.

mte. Bleach, One Piece, JoJo, and JJK are also mainstream shonen, so while the demographic is basically 16-30, they're still not in the same audience as Ladybug, Steven Universe, or Avatar (overlap be damned). plus, manga is also a medium not a genre so you can have children's manga and also Guts so um. please, op. please.

the classic "all anime is for kids" comes home to roost, I guess. tell that to the middle-aged salarymen reading Shonen Jump on the train.

Do you have any little headcanons that are tangential to the main story?

Any personal ideas on characters or plot events or history that just make you happy to imagine?
