Speaking from experience, more people in the Ranking of Kings fandom and a certain portion of the The Owl House fandom have been open to criticism than those in the Witch Hat Atelier fandom.
I don't think anyone has ever tried to defend Bosse and Miranjo or Toka's writing in regards to that matter in Ranking of Kings.
People accused me of supporting Belos' deeds when I described my issues with his treatment stemming from the erasure of the Wittebane lore in "Watching and Dreaming" of The Owl House. However, at least a sizeable number of people like @let-us-cultivate-our-garden understood my points and criticized things that I couldn't because of my lack of knowledge.
Fans of Witch Hat Atelier have dismissed and deflected my questions and tried to defend Shirahama's writing choices on TV Tropes, Discord, and Tumblr no matter how faulty their logic and assumptions might be. I will defend Qifrey and I like Tartah's early character arc about his disability and the Romonon arc too but none of those fans seemed to understand that you can like something and still apply a critical lens to it. I want to know why this series attracts so many people who refuse to see it from a critical lens.

Ranking of Kings Season 2 Episode 8: Kage's Yearning | A Great Mother
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a filler anime. This is a filler anime. I have to remind myself of that. That this season is just back stories and side stories that flesh out the world. But it's out here literally changing entire art and animation styles for the sake of an episode. Absolutely incredible. And I want to talk about it.
Now I don't want to be mean or anything, but the first half/A part of the episode is sort of "as expected" in comparison to the second half. It's story isn't bad, nor is its direction or storyboarding or animation poor either. In fact, it ties in wonderfully with the latter half, as both stories examine the importance of parents and dreams, though in different forms.
The first part is all about Kage wanting to grow up to being a law abiding and pure hearted knight. However, due to his clan's history he's unable to experience that joy and excitement with other kids his age, instead he's left to hide in corners as they play knight and chase him down (a bit of a grim callback to his mother's death).
Tumblr media
However, that bitterness doesn't stop Kage from dreaming, and I really love this scene where you can see the stars reflected in his eyes. Feels like a bit of symbolism for how full of life and potential kids can be.
Tumblr media
Anyways, push comes to shove and Kage ends up standing up for someone else at in important time, like a knight should, and he gets rewarded by a knight stepping in to save him. It brings the story full circle and allows Kage to express his desire to become a knight to his mother. It's a really endearing moment, and carries strong emotions as his mother's overwhelmed with how strongly Kage wants to be a good person in spite of his clan's nature and past.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Which in turn leads to this last piece from the first part, which was just so amazing. His mother is staying up late at night working away on creating a toy horse for him to play with, and it's just so full of warmth and heart alongside her wish for Kage growing up.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Anyways, onto the B Part!
Man, this was incredible. Right off the bat the art style change is noticeable as they go for that style that pins pieces together to create movement through rotation. A very typical style for telling fairy tales, and I absolutely adore it.
Tumblr media
Now, this second part follows a sort of similar story to Kage's A Part. Though, rather focusing on the child, it focuses on the parent. Namely in how Bosse and Shiina want to change and grow as people as they've found a new reason to get stronger in their son Bojji. I think it's really great to see them relinquish their pursuit of violent strength for something more constructive, and it's a really easy allegory for the importance of using strength for others rather than yourself.
Anyways, in terms of specific stuff I liked from this part, I loved this two shot piece of Bosse and Bojji. Originally, Bosse feels guilt and remorse for the curse placed on his son, and for his own violent ways, so he shies away from making contact with Bojji. But down the road Bosse does the right things, attempts to rectify his character, and in doing so finds the courage to be able to show his son how much he loves him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, I really like how they use scale through both halves of this episode. With each you get a lot of low and high angle shots that establish the scale of each character in comparison to their environments, and it flows quite well from one episode to the other.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And last but not least, I love this scene from Shiina and Bosse about Bojji. The amount of love that parents exhibit in this episode is just so heartwarming. The utter faith and confidence they have in their children achieving their dreams and living how they want is so inspiring.
Tumblr media
So there you have it. Incredible cute and incredibly important episode about the love that parents share for their children, and how experiencing that love can shape both parent and child alike. WIT continues to kill it with each and every episode, putting on a clinic for what the standard "filler" episode should be.

Throughout the new episode I constantly had to remind myself that Bosse was a horrible person because he was such a sweet person this episode.

Germanblr ich brauche eure Hilfe... vor Jahren habe ich auf Radio Teddy (dem Kindersender) eine bereinigte Version von "Frankfurt Oder" von Bosse und Anna Loos gehört, in der sie die Erwähnungen vom Alkohol rausgeschnitten haben
Und ich frage mich, ob sich da vllt noch jemand Anders dran erinnert und mir sagen kann, ob sie einfach das Wort "Schnaps" rausgeschnitten hatten, oder ob Bosse und Anna Loos tatsächlich eine neue Zeile für Radio Teddy aufgenommen haben
Ich finde dazu einfach nichts auf Google, aber vllt kann sich ja jemand Anders daran erinnern😆

Okay I'm confused.
I just finished episode 9 in Ranking of Kings and I barely know who's good and who's bad.
King Bosse made a deal with a devil, cursed his son, possessed the other one, and sent demon lion dog things after Hilling but he warned the guard about the attack? And he's happy Bojji is alive?
Domas thought he intentionally killed Bojji (and was fine with it) but he was so excited to train him in the first place?
And then the snake dude tried to kill Kage, encouraged Daida to hurt Bojji when they sparred, but he let Kage and Bojji go on a journey together and gave them a letter recommendation??
Like everyone keeps switching back and forth between protecting someone, betraying that person, protecting them again, and then trying to kill that same person.
I don't know I like the anime but I feel like it's too confusing. Nothing is getting explained. But then again I'm only on episode 9 out of 23 so I still have a while to go.
I'm tagging a few other anime because I need someone to explain this shit (without spoiling too much😭)

Funniest ourank au is a sitcom where miranjo isn't excessively desensitized to violence and instead of killing Sheena just tries to break up her & Bosse a la mushu in Multan 2.

Príncipe en las tinieblas (Serie de TV, 2022)
Príncipe en las tinieblas (Serie de TV, 2022)
Tenemos aquí, en Ranking of Kings, una de esas historias que rompen el molde y las fórmulas, que aparecen muy de vez en cuando y que la mayoría de las veces no tienen la notoriedad que se merecen. Es decir que vendría a ser mas o menos obligatorio que se vean para ampliar tu conocimiento del anime y de sus capacidades y calidades. Ta’bueno que de rato en rato uno quiera ver algo que se resume a…

I think this person on reddit summed up the youtube adblocker situation perfectly. my reaction to this is not "oh man guess I'll watch ads." its, "well, I guess I'll just do something more productive with my time." I highly doubt any adblock user is going to willingly go back to watching ads. so what actually happens is youtube loses a functionally tiny amount of its userbase--because adblockers weren't even losing them a significant amount of money in the first place(!)--and a bunch of adblock users move on to something else. what a fantastic waste of time and effort
