all day. all goddamn day i have been envisioning the griduni heist situation as some dude getting on a flight, seeing that the inflight entertainment service has the movie, and then plugging a computer into the headrest in front of him and somehow getting into the firewalls or whatever like he's hackerman. and i know that it was probably an employee who leaked it or a screen recording, and i've just been envisioning that because i thought it was funny but like. I GET IT. I GET IT NOW. I TOO WOULD HACK AN AIRPLANE FOR THIS MOVIE.

this is making ssssg even better in retrospect imo. like the way they love akane so much STILL and the whole yuuta being a operson thign

now tell me why i started crying when akane showed up. !!!

yeah okay now that ive seen it i really DO love her involvement here. i know its bc fanservice but i think it's also really poetic? like. to return to a place you were once forced into at your lowest because someone else is there and needs your help. to have the mental strength to do that and then leave once again and be alright. jesus

GRIDMAN GLOWY EFFECTS WOW I LOVE

ohhhhhhhhhh my god i've listened to universe a hundred million times but hearing it in context. euphoric

also i know which scene amemiya got all his lagann-hen friends to work on LMAO

was not prepared for akane and knight's conversation to hit me as hard as it did. "you gave me life and because i'm alive i've seen so many things" now THATS the hardest ive cried in the whole movie

rikka and akane stuff was VERY good too

OKAY HARDEST I CRIED NUNTIL GAUMA LEFT

ayyyye the dunmeshi preview!!

OVERALL THOUGHTS. holy shit i loved it 10/10 in every way. i laughed i cried i cheered i understood NONE of the universe explanations and that is exactly the way it should be. absolutely LOVED the whole "gridman doesn't belong to any one person; if you take something from him that means something to you that's cool" message. glad i read the spoilers bc otherwise i would've hoped for more of yume n chise n koyomi so i'm glad i knew what to expect going in. i need this to release NOW so that it can be in HD good lord. crunchyroll i am in your walls i need this to show in a theater. what a masterpiece!!!!!!

#AND THE 2023 OSCAR AWARD FOR BEST ANIMATED FEATURE GOES TO..........................GRIDUNI!!!!!!!!!#good lord that was such an amazing time. thank you trigger ily #a: gridman universe #t.txt

Open your eyes

OK OK OK

I watched the movie and listened to the soundtrack for the billionth time (totally not cuz I'm writing a long fanfic and details MATTER TO ME) but anyways

SO I realize that many a people likely realized the eyes phrase meaning. Like yeah cool the movie starts with open your eyes so that Mirabel can see the candle. Considering this is followed by Casita telling them it's time, this means that this was a tradition.

Abuela Alma takes the 5 year old to her room, tells them to look at the candle, and goes on to tell her story.

Quick note here: I love that during her story there's a moment where there's 4 butterflies that fly out from behind her (when she says Casita welcomed them) and the butterflies look like they're in the colours of her, Pepa, Bruno and Julieta but I'm watching the Yo Ho Ho version so HD when I did my best screenshot there's 4 here I promise

She then tells Mirabel that the miracle will give them a gift to strengthen the community and such. So by the time the ceremony got to Mirabel she already developed the notion that they serve the gifts not that the gifts serve them (I can't put exactly what I mean into words this is close enough)

The way she says it too btw is in the vein of "To be a Madrigal, you are required to have a gift."

Her tone doesn't actually change much for the rest of the lit candle portion of the movie. She refers to Pepa's emotions by the weather above her, Luisa is told to lift this move that (she doesn't even celebrate with everyone during the ceremonies she's still given chores and tasks cmon man every rewatch makes Surface Pressure hit harder), doesn't display much enthusiasm for Antonio but more relieved that he got a gift, etc etc etc you know this already

So why did I bring this up?

Because she didn't do it for Antonio.

Alma didn't give Antonio the speech.

Why am I so sure? Because the scene goes from Casita telling Mirabel she has to get Antonio ready, to Mirabel walking Antonio to his 'spotlight' and Dolores being the one to notify everyone that Alma said that it's time.

Also, the movie makes it A Thing to show Alma saying those words. It's her catchphrase essentially. I personally doubt that the movie would omit atleast the implications of this speech happening. 'There's no time!' Correct! And it would have been redundant! Consider this though, the opening implies the ceremony going like this;

1. Guests arrive and the family does their best to a proper host

2. Someone gets the child in question ready (probably parents)

3. Parents return to guests while Alma goes to the nursery and tells the story of the Madrigals and the gifts

4. Alma then walks the child to their spot and continues by herself to the stairs where she addresses the guests with a speech

5. The child is then welcomed/presented and walks up the stairs to their doors and gets their gift.

I wonder if Bruno giving a prediction was part of the ceremony either before or after too because if Isabela and Dolores got one that they remembered and Mirabel got one (granted this was after the whole no gift thing) did Luisa and Camilo? Because Bruno doesn't seem like an unprompted prediction type guy after the villagers did him real dirty

What makes me think that Alma went to the nursery? If she didn't that implies favoritism to Mirabel specifically and that seems weird out of place to me. By all accounts, nothing about Mirabel stood out YET. And no way she didn't tell her story to her own triplets when it was their turn, especially since it involves their father. Why would she skip 4 of her other grandchildren and then only tell the (at the time) youngest one? Doubt.

SO In conclusion, she didn't do the same for Antonio (he was probably told the story by the others at some point anyway) but notably, this meant that no one told him to open his eyes, specifically

Alma didn't tell him to open his eyes because hers were closed

In fact, the entire family appears to have closed their eyes, because much like Alma, their happiness feels like it stems from the fact he got A gift and has thus met the requirements to be a real Madrigal.

Which, as we know, leads to this

(Btw I love that everyone in this scene is lit tf up because they're stars shining brightly and also Agustin Madrigal you absolute unlucky man, he's probably covered in the final pic by Isabela's arm asdfghjk)

The rest is, well, the story.

Mirabel begs her to open her eyes. Alma doesn't. Mirabel begs her to acknowledge the cracks. Alma doesn't. Mirabel begs her to see what is doing to the family. Alma doesn't.

It's only when the candle goes out and Alma is left in the figurative darkness, does she finally open her eyes.

And in All of You, she finally sings it again. Open your eyes. Saw someone comment that they didn't get this line but the way I see it Alma is trying again. Alma knows she wronged Mirabel and she and the others are basically starting over (they literally sing it to her face)

Second note: not sure where to add this but I love that it was Mirabel who brought Antonio to his ceremony because in a way it was foreshadowing that Mirabel took over some of Alma's responsibilities. She already takes care of Casita, wakes people up if they sleep too long (that's what I took from her knocking on doors), fixes breakfast, etc etc so why not also preparing the kids and giving them a speech which is notably more in the vibes of "we will love you, gift or no gift" and not "boy I sure hope you get powers, we have an image to keep!"

So did Bruno not get married because everyone was afraid of his premonition gift or is it because of the OCD-like behaviours?

Isabela’s colour scheme

Okay okay okay

I know that like anyone who’s seen Encanto has probably noticed this but like

I love the fact that Isabela’s colour scheme is closer to that of Abuela than it is to her parents and sisters cuz it really shows that Alma basically molded her to take after her (probably also envisioning that Isabela becomes the next matron)

But after her song obviously she let’s go of this and then in the finale she GIVES HERSELF a blue coloured dress in the colour scheme of her family which also coincidentally is covered is splashes of colour like Mirabel’s doodle stitches which I love so much

Going from being disconnected and dismissive of your sister to being connected and loving I man I love this movie

According to We don’t talk about Bruno, every one of his prophecies/predictions /premonitions came true. Like I am about to state the obvious but this is my blog so fight me.

The first prediction about the rain wasn’t even a premonition, but a self-fulfilling prophecy which speaks for itself, so I’ll skip it.

Fish lady? Improper pet care Gut man? Bad diet/no exercise Hairless pastor? Genetics

Now Isabela says: He told me that the life of my dreams Would be promised, and someday be mine

At this point we are under the impression that that life is marriage to Mariano and becoming the defacto head of the family but as we learn after the life of her dreams is letting go of being perfect and being true to herself and her family.

Naturally if she was told of this after Alma became more strict and ‘demanding’ about Isabela being the perfect golden child, she would have interpreted this as becoming what Alma wants (what she thinks her dream is), not knowing that Bruno meant her own aspirations (what she secretly knows her actual dream is).

He told me that my power would grow Like the grapes that thrive on the vine This explains itself.

Dolores then says: He told me that the man of my dreams Would be just out of reach Betrothed to another

This one is fun to me because, well, Bruno never said he’d be MARRIED to another, only betrothed, and betrothals can be broken off the same way engagements do. Plus he’s just out of reach, which also doesn’t mean he’s unreachable, Dolores just had to reach out to him (which she does.)

She also knows more about Mariano than Isabela does so it eliminates the possibility that the man of her dreams is someone else because WHY would you keep checking in with a man you only care about because you’re told you should be (aka what Isabela did) so Mariano is def the man of her dreams (btw love that she doesn’t immediately accept his marriage request because she deserves the courting process too)

This song lives rent free in my head truly and I love that and also none of Bruno’s prophecies are bad, it’s just that everyone takes em at face value/inevitable which is why they Always left Abuela and the family fumbling, Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand

Okay, less hair trigger freak out this time. Let's unpack the remnant that looks like Cloud. Because it does.

Why are we starting here then? Because this is why the remnant sim, which isn't real, looks like Cloud.

Sephiroth has a certain amount of knowledge he's using to meet his goals. He knows Cloud cares about the planet and that he feels like a failure for letting his loved ones die. He knows Cloud cares about Aerith enough to be broken by threatening/killing her.

This is where he starts going wrong.

Because Sephiroth is arrogant af and would never think his knowledge isn't accurate. Cloud during this moment, doesn't know Aerith and wouldn't be triggered by it the way Sephiroth wants.

The same applies to the later attempts where he shows Aerith dying. It confuses Cloud, but doesn't set him off. And Sephiroth needs Cloud broken to control him.

The vision after the pillar collapse was fairly effective, but Cloud was distressed and recovered because Tifa was there supporting him.

So to the sim.

Sephiroth shows Cloud a vision of himself as a remnant because he believes Cloud is already aware he can become one. Cloud is dense af though and hasn't connected the visit from no2 to his own possible degradation. The same applies to no49. Cloud was scared, but didn't think "Oh shit, that's gonna be me.

It's Sephiroth's arrogance that stops him succeeding, as usual.

The remnant is dressed similar to how AC Cloud dresses because that's the latest memory Sephiroth has of Cloud. He's showing Cloud a future version of himself, so puts him in a remnant version of something he saw Cloud wearing. Because he hasn't actually seen Cloud in person until the end of the expressway.

That's Cloud's smile. There's no argument about that. And it's done so Cloud would question who that is. Because it's creepy af seeing your own smile on someone else's face.

And Cloud is clearly questioning who this remnant is, but then the world tilts and he doesn't get the chance to do anything further.

Then we get the remnant popping up behind Tifa, with Cloud's posture from AC. The low head, slumped shoulders. This is depressed Cloud from AC, who Sephiroth would remember best because it's his most recent memory that's been given to him through whatever corrupt means he's used to get meta info. By having the hand on show, we're meant to notice it. Because we've seen Cloud's hands without his gloves on.

And by having Cloud as a remnant turn into Sephiroth, who then stabs Tifa, it's Sephiroth's attempt to break Cloud again. He's telling him that this is what will become of him and this is what he'll do.

But Cloud doesn't recognise the remnant because he's not that Cloud. He isn't in a depressive state. He's not a failure the way Sephiroth implies. He hasn't run away.

And instead of breaking him, Cloud gets very, very angry. He looks for Sephiroth to kill him. And then Sephiroth gets more elaborate by stabbing Barret too. This shocks Cloud and stops him in his tracks because he didn't think he'd see the Nibelheim incident again. Tifa’s dead, Barret's dead (who is in place of Zack) and he can't think what to do.

Sephiroth finally accomplished his goal by escalating his abuse. He got no results with Aerith. Found out it made Cloud murderous when Tifa was hurt, but then Barret is important enough to him that it'll put a crack in that soldier armour.

Which explains why he stabs Barret later.

Sephiroth is testing Cloud's resolve, like in OG. He's seeing what he has to do to shatter his mind and take control of him. It's why he holds his hand out to Cloud and asks for help at the edge of creation. It's why Cloud's hand twitches before he says never.

Yeah, my immediate thought on seeing that was oh no Nomura timey wimey. But, it's not. It's just OG in HD.

And it's just as terrifying as I expected it to be 🤣🤣🤣
