Toastystats: Happy anniversary, Goncharov fandom!

In honor of two years since Tumblr went nuts over Goncharov, I've archived my original stats and analyses (including discussion/stats about the prevalence of femslash in the fandom), and I've done some follow up analyses.

He has given gifts to the other inmates for Christmas using the donations people sent his commissary account.

He appears to have attempted to communicate through flashing his cell lights to show his supporters outside that he could hear them cheering for him (this exact light flashing is what inmates at the previous prison did to communicate to the news that they were in support of Luigi, so he may have learned it from them and taken this form of light communication with him to MDC.)

It is rumored he is paying for the other inmates' healthcare using donations to his commissary account.

Inmates who shared time with him at the Penn prison say he 'gave them a voice' when they 'had never had one before' (in reference to the collective shouting 'Free Luigi' the inmates did.

You want to know who an actual fucking fae god is???

Kendrick Lamar.

The pettiness. The creativity. The persuasiveness. The accuracy. He had 110 million people across the nation today singing "a minooooor" like it was fucking nothing. This man has cast a thousand-year curse on Aubrey Graham's bloodline that cannot be undone through mortal means.

And, I cannot stress this enough, even if someone did come to this nation as an undocumented individual, they believed in the American dream enough to seek the protection and freedom of a nation that is now firing tear gas and rubber bullets at citizens who are exercising their first amendment rights.

First, Nickelodeon starts coproducing the show starting with season 5 and ends up making it aimed at younger audiences when the earlier season were aimed more at teens (to the point where season 7 aired on Nick Jr), which led to the show losing depth as characters became flanderized and stuck being students at the same magic school they graduated from after season 3 (as well as noticeably cheaper animation)

Then some mature, live-action Wattpad fanfic-esque adaptation comes to Netflix that’s basically Winx in name only

Next thing you know, the show gets a reboot people started to somewhat look forward to, with high quality test footage being shown and things looked great

…Only for it to be revealed that the show was being made using AI (as well as the labor of possibly mistreated and underpaid interns), the characters designs looked ugly, the show was being produced more for an American audience instead of the Italian one the show was known for, among other things

The animation looks cheap and unfinished, which is especially noticeable in the action scenes. Miraculous Ladybug, a show that some have given flack for its animation, had no more than a year to change the shows animation, which meant using a new software and remaking models, props and backgrounds from scratch. The studio behind Winx Club had five years.

The reboot tries to present itself as this new thing despite the first few episodes rehashing stuff from season 1 without the pacing, not to mention having the tagline “The Magic is Back”, which sounds like something you would name a continuation or sequel series rather than something with an entirely new and separate continuity

Anyways, here’s the reboot character designs compared to ones from the original
