What I Watched This Week – 4/30-5/6
Aim for the Ace! - When Discotek put this out on Blu-ray, I picked it up on principle, as I absolutely want licensors to make older shoujo more available. It is wildly dated, which makes sense, as it's literally fifty years old, but once I adjusted to the eye twinkles, sparkling sweat, and creative approach to animating the human body playing tennis, it was a perfectly enjoyable sports anime. It follows first-year high school student Hiromi, who joins the tennis club to be near her idol, Reika, only to get singled out by their new coach to be on the tournament team, leading to her getting bullied by everyone upset she replaced an older girl. The animation is rough, frankly. There was a lot of footage recycling and panning over or shaking still frames. The story of a weak, whiny girl growing into a confident, strong tennis player finding love and new friends along the way makes it all worth it, though. 7/10
Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 1 - This movie takes place some time in the middle of the main series' timeline, where Sakura wins a trip to Hong Kong and gets tied up in some magic user's nonsense along with Xiaolang, Tomoyo, and crew. I don't know if this was in the manga or something original, but it was a perfectly entertaining little side quest with the same good-quality art and animation as the TV series. 7/10
Cyber City Oedo 808 - I was excited to see that RetroCrush had updated its media player on their website, but then I noticed they had far fewer shows in the catalog than I remembered. This three-episode OVA was one of only a handful I was interested in. The story is about three convicted criminals offered a deal to get out of prison: If they work for the police to catch cybercriminals in a far-future Tokyo, they can earn credits to reduce their sentences and get the remote-controlled bomb collars off their necks. Each 45-minute episode focuses on one of the trio, with the others playing backup, which I thought was a good use of the episode count. So, the first episode is full of cheesy one-liners delivered with maximum smugness to suit the first character, the second episode is centered on hacking and a showdown with a military robot in line with the techie character, and the third episode is full of rose petals and a beautiful vampire for the effeminate character fond of stealth and poetry. It's a nicely animated cyberpunk series with a interesting setting and some fun action scenes. 7/10
Vampire in the Garden - Despite some amazingly bad vehicle animation, I enjoyed this five-episode series about a human girl and a vampire woman who go on the run together from their respective societies in search of a place where vampires and humans can live alongside one another. Aside from the vehicles, the character animation was solid, giving a lot of life to domestic scenes and a lot of energy to the action scenes. The beautiful winter landscapes were nice to look at as our main characters travelled through them, and they made the cities look appropriately gritty and bleak by comparison. I liked both main characters, and the way the two of them were shown to be completely done with their everyday lives made it easy to understand why they would go to such lengths to abscond with someone they'd only just met. Not the most uplifting show, but I enjoyed it for what it was. 7/10

i get that many aroaces experience their aromanticism and asexuality as connected in some way, but it's still important to acknowledge that "aroace" and "aro/ace" are not umbrella terms for the entire aspec community. as somebody whose aromanticism and allosexuality are inextricably intertwined and can't be fully separated from one another, you don't see me using "aroallo" for all aspecs - that clearly wouldn't be an accurate reflection of the whole community! "aspec" is a good term that includes all of us - please consider using it when referring to the general community.
#aspec#aromantic#asexual#aro#ace#aroallo#alloaro#alloace#aceallo#non-sam aro#non-sam ace#i wasn't going to tag this as anything other than aspec but you know what i think i will#i feel like sometimes people forget that their specific experiences aren't universal#and end up trying to apply them to everyone which of course only serves to exclude people#this isn't aimed at any one person or incident or anything it's just a trend i detest#PLEASE make an effort to include those in your own community.#my words

final showdown pt2.
This was one of those battles where I survived it without a single reload. So. This entire scene? Accurate. Embarrassingly Accurate. (except the healy dealy. that's Greygold flair)
Wanted to get to the crown as fast as possible, but had to fly by Emps. Literally stopped next to bud to personally yell/reassure the fool I was gonna save their ass and then risked the opportunity attack.
(which. I forgot to bring my dex 18 gloves and discovered illithidism had shit dex, so....IS FINE. GG IS ALL FOR STARTING A NEW COLLECTION OF FRIENDSHIP SCARS)
BUT SQUID BUDDY MISSED. so. I like to think Enthralled Emps had put some effort into jumping through some rather large logic hoops to miss. Unlike Greygold who put JACK effort into dodging.
I originally intended to leave Emps completely alone, risk the attacks. But. Brain tentacle surprise happened. Right next to the squid. Emps rolled high in initiative.... But not as high as Lae'zel. Game-wise, ✨I panicked✨. Story-wise? I don't think this could have been any more in-character. Albeit, I found myself quadruple checking to make sure knockout mode was ABSOLUTELY on
#bg3 spoilers#bg3#baldur's gate 3#the emperor bg3#lae'zel#illithid tav#greygold#squid greygold#Man there's so many past comic refs I don't feel like linking hope you all are keeping up hUAR#If GG had known emps would be there they would not have worn that guardian armor but they are too stubborn to admit they whoopsied#I don't remember jack in the other timeline final battle (sadly) but this fight? forever burned into my soul. good drama yo.#I will never get over how Greygold use to have the AC of an Ancient Red Dragon and now they're AC is Squid Chum SQUID CHUM#GREYGOLD'S AIM IS SQUID CHUM TOO AUGH#As much as I keep ragging on Emps I love Lae'zel to death as well. knocked that squid out in one go to protect her squid-Joy ehuehuehueh#I can only imagine that she never thought she'd have to resist killing not one but -two- mindflayers for the sake of love....Love you babe~#CHARACTER GROWTH INDEED

saw an anti ace-spec people post on the asexual tag today so I wanted to make a post:
for anyone who fits anywhere on the ace spectrum, no matter how you define sexual attraction and how often you feel it, no matter your past, no matter your other orientations, and no matter how confident you are in it. Have a happy international asexuality day, this day is for you :)
#aroace posts#aiming for a positive post#asexual#ace-spec#acespec#i don't know all the acespec tags so if you reblog with more I'll probably add them here#grey ace#gray ace#ace#international asexuality day#iad#1k#i talk

I absolutely understand the desire for asexual representation and I really do think that that's something that deserves to be represented in more "mainstream" gay media (how much gay media is actually mainstream is debatable but you know what I mean), but at the same time I just can't get behind posts like, idk, lamenting the loss of potential asexual representation because two guys on TV had nasty gay sex, bc gay sex on TV is not "the norm" no matter how you slice it. Whereeeee is all the media filled with nasty gay sex. Can I see it
#open mick night#it just feels like missing the forest for the trees you know. i feel the exact same way abt non-asexual gay people blaming ace people#for stuff. all this vitriol aimed at the wrong targets#idk i'm most certainly not trying to Do Discourse i just kinda think it's funny#this world some people seem to live in where men are never allowed to be friends and MUST suck and fuck at all times

Aces, we have a new target
As per the screenshot below from @ripmyfictionalfriends, after invading Denmark we should focus our forces for a final effort in the Netherlands before moving to world domination!
#To be honest#World domination should be our aim#Ironically#I argued against this in a previous reblog of something else#In the tags of course#The level of chaos in my tags is unforgiveable but I must say that I love it!#world domination#Aces invade the world#Starting from Denmark#Y'all are going down#How dare you steal our mitosis?#l'italiana parla
