Anyways Ep 3 is crazy

First off. The asian chick (i dont remember anyone's name btw) is so full of it. Like please care about the life of the patient goddamn she is to much about wanting to do things and a removed so much of the humanity from the people on the operating table already and its only ep 3.

Also yes honey you give gay vibes but like in like a bisexual way. Both ways you would be the one dommed.

Omg imma cry, im not cryin, you're crying!!!

"i am going to become a lesbain"

"me too"

Slay

Its not a game

Omg their chemistry is crazy. Ehjdfhjsksms

Wtf was that ferryboat monologue, that was so unnatural. Is this how grown white men speak? What a nothing burger of a personality.

What is this elevator fight? Also girl you know that you wanna, oop that was quick. She folded so fast.

Omg the rape victim has the same pair of shoesssss, aaaaaaaaaaaah. Should have known when they did a close-up of her shoes earlier that it was Chekov's shoes.

How does grey know thats a bit off penis? But also slay queen slay! Reminds me of this one random movie where this girl was seeing this guy who turned out was a cannibal. The cannibal guy was gonna eat the girl's bestie next so our main girl went along with it and was like hell ye fuck her, you wanna have smexy time now. He was like hell ye, and so she then started giving him head to then bit his dick off. She then exscapes with her friend I believe. I dont really remember because its one of the movies that my hairdresser ends up playing for background noise while she does my hair for like 8 hours so those movies tend to blur together.

Girllll, the asian chick is getting such a reality check, I know you worked hard to get here, so whats wrong with working more. Like of course you are smart but you dont have the experience.

Ew I hate the nurse slur guy. He is so sleazy.

Also I know they probs didn't have google translate back in 2005, but you would think they would have some type of medical call/note that would notify the doctor that they need some who speaks Chinese or whatever the L2 language is. Like how was she even admitted into the hospital in the first place.

OMG DOES NO ONE KNOW THAT GREYS MOM HAS ALZHEIMERS!!!!!

So she has the penis tip in the bucket. I see, I see.

OVARIAN SISTER IS CRAZY. But also think about it, you just gave this family good news, obviously they are going to hug you over mr. sleaz ball smirking in the corner.

Chekov's SHOES!!

Also I get it, so many times we forget that other people are well... people. Especially, in an environment like a hospital where people may become reduced to a case study or just a body on the operating table. However, it takes only the littlest thing to realize that this person is no different than you. This tragic event could be you.

Also wtf was that insult Grey. A man cant make googoogaagaa faces now! God forbid men have hobbies. Also smash. Like men like him are so submissive and breedable.

Blue baby

Assuming an asian american speaks any asian language is crazy, so glad she called her out.

He didnt ask why.

Also this is so rude, like sorry for being human who wants to here good news when they have a loved one in the hospital.

Damn he really took the not being the chief surgeon to heart damn.

Also at this point I would try to find some type of chinese to english dictionary.

"lets all take a moment to grieve.. clamp" slayyyy

Truuuuuuu, you gotta go out of your way bestie.

Did she really let her leave without any attempt at communication. Like body language, pictures something!!!!

Slay Dr. Durke Slay. You are a busy mannnn!

Slay!!!!! I dont speak chinese but I know the chinese lady blessed her. Slay!!!!

Use those 22 seconds and clock him.

At least he wants to date

I thought the eposode would be over now.

Fight fight fight

"you're not my ememy, you're just competition" yaaaasssas

Omg, i will say this rant now upon seeing a black woman extra. Shows in the 2000s were scared to have black woman with hair that wasnt straight or anything more curly type 3b i swear. Lik where are the braids, the twists, anything. Like i know we girlies got our wigs but, them girlies don't look like they are wearing wigs. They def straighting their hair for the show like all 2000s shows/movies you can tell how little black people are behind production by the way they style a black womans hair, extra or not. My favorite example are looking at movies like high school musical and let it shine and compare how their hair differs to the disney movie jump in (girlie pops actually are wearing braids). We can also look at tv shows like ant farm where despite the main character is a black woman, her hair is always straight. The first time i remember seeing China in braids was descendants as Uma. Anyways i digress.

Omg roomates.

Omg Chekov's Shoes.

S1E1

Okay the dialogue is so 2000s, but as someone who is binging supernatural, I love it.

Why did grey throw up, was it stress, or was it watching someone have a seizure

Also why are they making fun of rhythm gymnastics, its one of the most entertaining olympic sports along sides scynceonized swimming and ping pong.

I 100% believe Dr. Shepard fully meant that yes to Grey then picke dup the social cues to say no. The pause after was way to long. Also I would have still given my chance to scrub up if I was Grey because I gave the girl my word.

So I really really love this movie. But that is because I am a huge nerd when it comes to horror movies and analog horror type films. So I might be ranting a bit about the cosmetic design and the different camera shots that were used so beautifully here.

Some of my favorite horror scenes come from this movie. Two of the of ones that I love the most are the scene where the girl's corpse it found and the scene where they crawl out the tv. Despite, these scenes both having extremely good jump scares, what I want to talk about is the artistic choices done by the cosmetic team. One thing I very much enjoyed during the tv scene is how when she crawls across the floor, we can see the tips of her fingers bend as she presses them on the ground as she no longer has fingernails. Not only did the team did the research but also took the effort to make the scene as grotesque as possible to include this detail. Having also watched the American version of this movie, I was severely disappointed when the scene came and not only did they not show the nails being removed, they also didn't include the crawling bit so we didn't get to witness the bending of the fingers.

Now on to discussing the well scene. Before this scene, I was thinking how to corpse would probably be well preserved due to the environment its in and to my surprise, it was pretty well preserved. Once again, I have to give create to the cosmetic crew and story writers for including not only this detail but allowing us to witness all of the hair and remains shed off the skeleton once the main girl started touching it. Also, I have to give credit to the girl in this scene. She was able to portray her character as having lost her mind in a way that was calm and some-what heartwarming. All the stress that was previously on her faded away as soon as she found the body. When watching the American movie, I was extremely pissed when they chose to do this scene using CGI, I was even more livid that the actress was not able to express the same type of emotion.

This is officially going on the roommate watch list me and my roommates have set up. I truly love this movie so much do to its various languages and cultures.

Very rarely do you get the chance to see so many different nationalities represented so well in a dystopian movie. Typically, the genre chooses to create its own set of "nationalites" in which their characters are limited to, such as in the Divergent series where they are classified by their traits or in Hunger games where each person classifies by their district. Despite having people of various races in these movies, they never go out their way to address them.

This movie is different in that aspect as it chooses to do both. For example, each person in this film has their own nationality, yet these nationalities are then divided into two groups: the Japanese and then the Yentowns (which encompasses all the other nationalities), who are seen as the outsiders. To me, it feels like the director is calling out Japan for only seeing all these cultures as other and maintaining a us vs. them mindset.

At the same time, this movie makes it a point to show how despite all the yentowns coming from different origins, it is their struggles that make them the same and allow for them to unify as a collective. Many times in actual history, those that are oppressed have found ways to oppress others within their social sphere to make themselves feel superior, hindering the chances for unification.

My boy! 😭😭😭 They did him so wrong. Eveyone was done so wrong. Like I only watched the 4 episodes and yet I still cried.

Firstly, I was so upset when skip died. Unfortunately, one the things that tends to happen a lot in media is that they tend to over masculinize black men and women as well as children. (Luckily, it is starting to happen less and less but this is still present in older media. So when I saw how Skip was portrayed I was so genuinely happy. He is being portrayed just like any other normal kid. I literally loved him so much. My roommate told me how she couldn't finish this anime because it was too said and I was thinking to myself "when does it get said", then Skip died. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Then later in the same episode we see the police officer showing Ash his own rape video during his cross examination or whatever its called. Like this has to be illegal. Literally the police officer is showing child pornagraphy to multiple people and Ash how is STILL UNDERAGE. I WAS STUNNED. LITERALLY STUNNED.

Just this show, ugh, I don't know how to describe it but the way its set up is similar to American horror story, where every twist is absolutely gut-renching. And when you think they will finally, finally get a happy ending, somebody random kills them.

To be honest, I still havent watched the movie yet as I want to watch it with my roomates since I have never seen it before.

Unfortunately, that means I did have to spoil the entire plot for myself by having myself read an entire plot summary.

What I can confer is that this movie focuses on two connected fates that had not been previously been connected before, similar to penguindrum.

However, different to penguimdrum, where there seems to be a constant theme of messing with fate leading to unforseen and ugly consequences. This movie however, seems to thrive on the idea that love can change fate and by placing yourself in someone else's world, you will be able to accomplish more.

Another thing that makes me want to watch it is how it plays on gender norms. I personally love movies and shows that play around with gender norms and stereotypes. I have seen the clip already of the girl in the boy's body trying to find the right pronoun (watashu, boki, ore). The scene is very much comedic but in a way thr highlights the confines of gender norms and what boys and girls are expected to say and do.

Firstly, what a pompous jerk. Like, the way he tries to make the story humerous yet at the same time uses said "humor" to back up his "points" is absurd.

One of the things I immediately noticed was how there was an extreme lack of sources sited. This whole comic is simply is opinion with no scientific evidence or journals that argue his claim. After writing so many papers, I have begun to look at some of the sources for the things I read so I can get a better grasp of the discussion happening within the area of study. Yet it seems he is the only one making this argument and I know why.

He is cherrypicking is information. If you are going to provide information about something to change my mind I need both sides and full facts. He instead is listing a one or two points that may cause room for disbelief without providing the evidence its actual context. He then proceedes to use this very little information as his main argument as to why everything is false. It is such a giant leap and it feels like something I would write in middle school.

Yet, I understand that by creating room for disbelief (no matter how stupid the reason is) it allows for many who are unaware if the real facts to be swept away with his opinion.

Honestly, Im am so done with this series. I already said it once and I plan to say it again, the insanity of the show is similar to evangelion, a show I hate for the life of me.

Though, one of the things I did enjoy was the art style. Particularly, where all the background characters look like the bathroom door man but grey. It creates a reality where only character that are important enough or are "chosen" get to be part of the plot while everyone else's story is basically non-existent. With a world as big as are and some many people, it is sometimes easier to see people as numbers rather as individuals. Especially, when it comes to tragedy.

And though I hate the stalker girl, her presence is important to the story because how it shows the after affect of said tragedy and a small scale. Yes was society able to quickly move on. But the those personally affected by said tragedy will still have the scars.

This movie to me is worse than Cruel Story of Our Youth. I know that this is a crazy thing to say but it's genuinely true.

For me, I cannot stand it when a character just is able to get away with his actions no matter the consequences. Hana-bi is a story about a man who absolutely shows no character growth throughout the film and constantly is able to control the situation no matter what. He needs money - he goes to the loan sharks who give him the cash despite him being in debt. His friend just tried to commit suicide - he just goes and buys him all the things his friend said to him that one time on the beach. He gets surrounding by gangsters- no problem our boy can beat them up. He needs more money - no problem my boy robs a bank without any consequences. He wants to ring the big bell - he just goes for it and no monks come to tell him off.

Also he is so quick to violence, like yes I get it your wife is dying and you want to make her happy and the yakuza won't leave you alone but this is a clear character flaw. So much so that even the yakuza actively joke how cruel he can be by saying jokes like "he will keep shooting even when his enemy/he has run out of bullets" (i don't remember the exact line) and mentioning how he kept shooting the dead body of the guy that shot his coworker. We even get a flashback of him actively kicking the shit out of the corpse of his coworker's killer. Yes, he was sweet to his wife throughout the entire movie but that doesn't make up for how nasty he can truly be to others.

OMG! I AM PISSED. At first I really did like this anime as it reminded me a bit of Ouran host club with its absurdity and insight into human struggles with love. Then it slowly devolved into a convoluted mess (I watched the first 13th episodes and now I kind of wished I didn't). I felt like I was just sitting there in front of my tv watching a girlier version of Evangelion which I also don't like. When I went to watch the Evangelion movie last night I was so distraught at how some of these cataclysmic scenes were portraying these just kinds in a weirdly provocative way. And once again it happens here in Penguin Drum when the girl reached for the brother's scorpion ball soul. Like I get it - it's "SyMboliK" but like why do I need it to be shown this way. They are just kids. Also there's those penguins that keep doing weird stuff in the background. I would die for almost all of them except the perverted one - like why do we need so much dirty jokes in the background -I don't want to see a penguin steal women's underwear and constantly like up girls skirts.
