but i sort of mixed up ‘have a nice night’ and ‘have a lovely night’

and with the biggest grin on my face said

Not only that, it's brimming with Black culture, New York culture, diversity, and I haven't seen a visual style this unique and immediately identifiable in a cartoon series since Steven Universe. It's also extremely anime inspired, with some anime in jokes as well as a very strong case for the show being a Cardcaptor Sakura homage with its main characters and their relationship

(a roller skating superhero and her fashionista bestie who makes her clothes and records her adventures)

It's also fantastically queer, with one of its main characters Casey having two dads, some explicitly non-binary they/them characters and actors, and pride flags showing up quite a few times in multiple scenes (especially when Casey's around).

It also tackles a lot of important issues in smart and clever ways, such as gentrification, the value of natural hair, racism in the workplace and so on.

The soundtrack is amazing, and it even has Lawrence Fishburne as executive producer and the voice of one of the BEST omnipotent cartoon villains with one of the best designs I've seen in a while

(and he sings!)

(I find it hilarious that this is in the same universe as the MCU because Thanos is baby garbage compared to the Beyonder. Thanos needed the Gauntlet to wipe out half of the universe and the Beyonder can just delete the entire Earth without effort. It's like they decided a 13 year old girl was the best possible person to deal with the MCU's most powerful being so far, and honestly, they were right)

the already famous palm suggestion that makes miles break out of miguel's containment thing. miles initially reads this as condescending but hobie's genuinely trying to help

already he's looking out for miles by trying to keep him away from hq, a place where he knows miles isn't welcome and might be in danger

now, they get to hq and he immediately starts lifting stuff to homebrew a watch for miles, a guy he's known for five minutes (bc you can't convince me he didn't already have a bunch prepped for gwen and the other spider-people he trusts). he even lampshades it with the line above.

he's questioned miles' motives to join the spider society and he knows they're the same as his own: it's literally just to get a watch, to have a means to travel dimentions, to see his friends, to build community. he's already made the decision to grant that ability to miles without subjugating him to the oppressive restrictions and requirements of the spider society. at this point we know he's strongly ideologically opposed to the society and he later in this scene admits he's only there to look out for gwen, just like miles

this one makes me insane. it's a "are you safe at home in your dimension? do you have one? do you need a place to stay?" bc we know he's given one to gwen, who's not safe and does not have nice parents and has been crashing in hobie's dimension for the previous months

and then he tries again to warn miles off the spider society

and when push comes to shove and all the other spider-people are set on stopping miles from going home and changing his timeline he's the only one in miles' corner

btw notice how the palms thing is the first and last thing he says to miles in this film?
