KAYYAK

idk how to feel about the new season.. honestly my interest in DVC has shrunk a lot in the past year.

Rosa: YAY SHE’S BACK!!!! I’m rly interested to see her arc this season, out of everyone, she definitely deserved to come back the most.

Lake: Kinda ditto?? Idk I like Lake I hope she goes far. I think she’s a bit overrated, but I have hope she’ll make it the furthest out of the cyan team alliance.

Alec: I don’t rly like Alec, and I really hope they don’t try to make him a sympathetic character this season (he’s a terrible person). That being said, I think he has good potential to be interesting this season.

Benji: I like Benji. I think he’s the funniest DVC character. That’s not rly saying much (sorry), but still. He made me exhale out of my nose a few times, which no other character (except maybe Isabel) could do. I hope they don’t water him down to “silly guy”, because I thought he was rly well written in S4.

Dunia: I LIKE HER DESIGN!!!!!!!!!! That was the coldest take known to man but idc. She’s got a cool concept and I hope she goes far.

Bruno: He’s such a cutie why’s he so hated :(. I rly like his voice and his design. Maybe I like more ‘normal’ characters idk. I found a lot of the character introductions rly corny, but he was the exception sometimes.

Sam: Despite his Disney villain lines I think he could be cool. Ya

Aiden: Look bias wants me to put him higher but I kinda can’t </3. I obviously love Aiden and I’m so excited to see him again, but he’s done barely anything so far. Also I genuinely can’t stand his friendship with Tom and Gabby it’s so cringe PLEASE BE NORMAL oh my god. It’s painful reading hate about my goat knowing it’s all true. Still, he beat the first boot allegations. PLEASE BE INTERESTING THIS SEASON PLS PLS PLS PLS PLSP SPLSPLS. I also like his new hair :D

Fiore: Cool new design. Fiore is a pretty fun character. I hope she gets away from Alec…. RUN!!! HE’S WEIRD!!!!!

Natalia: I honestly don’t have a lot to say about her. I think her defending of Logan was incredibly irritating, but on her own she’s pretty interesting. I don’t LOVE how the only trans woman last season was the one who flipped on the women’s alliance. I’m assuming that wasn’t intentional, so I hope they don’t do that again.

Aubrey: Funniest fan to me. She’s the perfect first boot. I found it unintentionally funny that she was inconsistent with one of her signs.

Ara: A bit overrated, but I like her dynamic with Finn. She’s also got a very cool design. I can see her either being really well written or really tryhard and forced.

Finn: Ditto with Ara, except he’d definitely be higher if he didn’t have such an obvious fake Australian accent. They annoy me so much why can’t they get an actual Australian to voice him istg. I like his flirting with Tom though. I’d prefer it to be with another character, because I’m SICKKK of the TomJake shit.

Ally: Ehh. I can’t see her going far. I’m a bit tired of her generic video game references. I kinda liked her interactions with Benji.

Oliwia: Literally Gabby 2. I don’t have much else to say, sorry.

Evie: Unpopular opinion, I don’t really like her. I see what they were trying to do, but I don’t really think comedy is ONC’s strong suit. Her character doesn’t really make sense to me? She’s so painfully unrealistic in the context of DVC. It feels like they were pandering to the Twitter fans who like “stupid diva” characters (and it worked so I guess I’m happy for them). I’m clearly in the minority here, so they must be doing something right, but i personally find her painfully unfunny.

Ernesto: Can there be an older character in DVC who doesn’t say “dont let me age fool you”. At this point being old makes you way more likely to win. He hasn’t done anything interesting so far.

Manu: All I remember is him being nice to Bruno. I like Bruno so he’s fine i guess.

Anastasia: UGHHH. Maybe her placement was a bit mean. I liked her interactions w Rosa, I just find Anastasia rly cliche and boring.

Gabby: I have Gabby burnout. I can’t take anymore kid’s show “random” humour from her. Please leave immediately.

Tom: Same with Gabby but worse. I’ve come to dislike Tom so much it hurts. Please leave now. Idk why people want Aiden to leave first when Tom IS RIGHT THERE. You DO NOT NEED THE MONEY GO BE WITH JAKE AND SHUT UP!!!!!!!!

Nura: Awesome design wasted on the corniest character in the cast. Some people have said it’s a double standard finding her annoying while liking Noah and Gwen from TD. The difference is that Noah had actually funny lines, was meant to be unlikeable and got voted out in S1 in a very satisfying way. I honestly do find Gwen’s sarcasm a bit irritating in S1 on rewatch, so I guess that’s a fair argument. Then again, Gwen was 16 and Nura is 28 so there’s a BIT of a difference lol. Nura’s lines are rly annoying and feel incredibly cliche.

Ren: I LOVE non-binary rep. I just wish they weren’t both “fricking random silly chaotic gremlins!!!!!1!1!”. Tristan’s obviously significantly better than Ren, but still. Also their outfit is so horrendous it actually pisses me off.
