So, NewMoon is Nexus and OldMoon is back.
Combined, this puts the largest "death flag" on NewMoon right now. Which sucks.
(I will be using Nexus and Newmoon interchangeably to refer to him. Like pre-villian and post-villian.)
I love OldMoon, I'm happy he's back... But like...
What is this non-reaction from Sun?? It's so boring. There's so much to yell and call him out for. I hope that comes later.
But the mundaneness in which he's brought back is just so underwhelming just like "ha he doesn't remember anything for the past year. Funny."
Not to mention OldMoon isn't given the full context of Why NewMoon "went crazy" and everyone is just writing him off like that???
The entire show is gaslighting us into believing NewMoon was toxic.
But think of before all this.
LOOK AT THE OLD EPISODES.
I watched the entire years worth of content. He is not toxic.
The only remotely Toxic thing he did was yell at people when he got angry in high intense situations, which he apologized for nearly instantly after he calmed down.
And if somebody says "he hung out with Solar more..."
Like what??? Your siblings arent allowed to have friends? If Sun died NewMoon still would have become Nexus. Solar would spiral with him. Cus sure as hell Solar would feel horrendously guilty if another Sun died in his place.
Hanging out with your friends over your siblings is not toxic behavior no matter how many times you spin it.
Newmoon's only crimes before he went in his villian arc are that he was prone to anger and yelling, and he liked hanging out with someone who had similar interests to him.
But he genuinely cared so much, and that care became a poison due to the unappreciation. Which shows in the lack of acknowledgement of Newmoon's good actions throughout the year of his life.
He did everything to help his family. And it's like everyone forgot what a caring individual he was actually. It's so strange. Everyone just says "oh yeah he went crazy" but no one is looking at the perfect storm of steps it took to get there.
NewMoon bought Sun a house, cured several types of cancer, built Earth a body, Gave Lunar a bodyguard, gave Solar and Sun the most expensive luxury gifts at Christmas.
He also helped Sun with his Bloodmoon hallucinations. He was there for him and always regarded Suns input on things. I can not say the same for Sun.
He cared and loved so much. To see the show just turn it around and villain him and act like he didn't love his family for a year and wasn't the sweetest person to them?????
And I am tired of pretending like NewMoon wasn't a good person or brother in the first place.
