I was gonna make a post talking about the TADC finale and the many issues it had and why so many people (including me) failed butā¦I legit am getting way more enjoyment out of just watching Gifs of an actual good old show so Iām just going to list quick points I was gonna make and move on. The Stuff:
How the show tried to make the dynamics between the characters be the reason they should keep going but I am having trouble remembering if Zooble and Pomni even talked one on one
The treatment of Abstractions feels dehumanizing (theyāre treated like either dead and itās corpses in a aquarium or in a coma but no one is telling Jax anything about his irl self being ok or doing the group dinner scene in the aquarium to include the abstractions)
Character arcs all over the place
ending seems like it wasnāt planned or had to be changed last minute
Playing a song a black father made to his daughter to represent either a ship or a character who actively bullied the one black character in the cast he knew
The trans characters and their queerness being indirect and barely covered (and if covered in aā¦certain way). This show didnāt have a tv censorship to worry about so why is written like it had to go through that?
Caineās redemption is not explained
how did a 90s computer in a (probably) abandoned) building make a WiFi connection. What company would just not shut this program down at some point?
IHNMAIMS and Soma covered the existential situation better and likeā¦so much other stuff made the point of āour relationships and how we connect to each other is what mattersā so much better (I would prob just watch mlp if I wanted 6 characters that all have believable bonds with each other. Seriously, did Pomni ever talk to Zooble by themselves?).
Oh and the suicide trope but I am probably going to cover in that in a later more serious post because itās popping up even more in media and itās concerning (CRK, Arcane, Stranger Things, Good Omens, etc)
