most annoying breed of author is actually someone who doesn’t respect a genre and sets out to subvert it.

#princess stories and fairytales are especially so susceptible it. I especially hate it when a man decides he can do better and writes a #story that insults the genre as a whole. do not fucking touch the genre please and thank you.#text #edit: if you’re here to check my tags pack it up kids I was ranting about brandon sanderson very tangentially.#but the people saying horror is subjected to the worst of this treatment are right

"Red white and royal blue is too cringy" "heartstopper is too unrealistic" yeah maybe but so is every single other rom com under the sun. Why does queer media always need to be realistic and profound while straight stories get more freedom to be silly and fantastical?

#red white and royal blue #heartstopper #lgbtq #being cringy and unrealistic is just like #a staple of the rom com genre lol #as more queer stories are being highlighted #not everything is going to appeal to everyone #and that shouldnt been seen as some kind of moral failing #birdy chirps

the great irony of early one piece antagonists believing zoro was the actual captain and using luffy as a puppet ... oda really threw us a bone and curb-stomped it right in our faces. yes, zoro could be a captain in his own right. yes, zoro could match luffy in strength. yes, zoro knows this perfectly well. and you know what? he chose luffy two years ago, and he will continue to choose luffy again and again. roronoa zoro, the pirate hunter, who followed a wannabe pirate with a nonexistent crew on a whim because luffy brought him his swords and made a half-assed attempt at a bargain. zoro, who made a vow to never lose again on both his and luffy's honor. zoro, who told luffy he'd make him commit harakiri if he got in the way of zoro's goal, only to turn around and be willing to sacrifice his dream if it means that luffy reaches his. zoro, who stood in place and took luffy's pain and told a warlord to take his head instead of luffy's, who got down on his knees before his supposed rival and begged mihawk to mentor him so that he could return strong enough to protect his captain. zoro, who has conqueror's haki- a natural born leader- but chooses to stay at the right hand of a man he has deemed greater than himself.

and the thing that luffy fears most? being alone. being rejected. being left behind. and what should have been his foil- the pirate hunter to his pirate king, the nonbeliever to his divine, the king of hell to his sun god- instead becomes his first and most devout follower; the one who demands to follow him to hell and back. oughhhggg i'm sick to my stomach

#one piece #roronoa zoro #monkey d luffy #zolu #what the hell is wrong with him #the very definition of becoming bewitched body and soul #do you get me #luffy is zoro's helen of troy #in that #he'd launch a thousand ships to put a smile on luffy's face #i need to crack open that mossy green head of his and see what's going on inside #has anyone told oda that he could possibly be cooking one of the greatest love stories the shounen genre has ever seen #one piece is a 26 year long ongoing slowburn #luffy: it's rotten work!!! ^_^#zoro: yeah i fuckin know but god what does it matter. it's for you #pls dont tag as platonic lmao

laios when his party needed more members:

#eliot posts #dunme #delicious in dungeon #dungeon meshi #laios touden #toshiro nakamoto #though i suppose this samurai was less hired and more just dragged along lmao #toshiro (and his team's) existence within this setting absolutely tickles me #bc the setting is so like. Standard Ambiguously Old Timey European Fantasy Setting #and then there just. is a samurai there.#it makes absolute logical sense if you think about it #like yeah of course a world that includes many continents will have more than just Fantasy Europe #but nonetheless seeing a samurai and a knight side by side in the same story is such a genre twist #(i hope no one has made this joke before lol it feels too obvious)

How did Treasure Planet manage to come up with the greatest aesthetic in all human history? Victorian elegance plus space-age flair, with just enough dirt and grime and wear and tear to make it feel real? A combination of traditional and computer animation that perfectly embodies the movie's blend of old and futuristic? How does it get any better than that?

#treasure planet #turned it on on a whim #because sylvia's lovers put me in the mood for sailing ship vibes #and it turns out it fits in really well with the north and south space opera i've been thinking about again #it's really hard for me not to give thornton a giant beautiful space sailing ship #(no you can't do it! the point is that they're industrial and purely functional!)#also i've got another post brewing about how treasure planet is an excellent boy's adventure coming-of-age story #and we need more of those because i feel like the genre doesn't exist in the same way these days #but i'm not sure i could say what i mean without getting folks up in arms #so i'm keeping it to the tags

The Main Character.

[Blank Scripts AU]

#take a look at his shounen genre anime/manga acting ahh #okay small talk in tags (im gonna start spouting entire essays at you)#i personally think the TSP community dont give me enough content with Stanley as the main character #like yall are fr missing out #guys think about it #rather than focusing on the narrator (who's basically the equivalent as a high-leveled entity comapred to Stanley)#wouldnt focusing on the weaker person seeing the world filled with unknown monsters be more fun?#because you get to explore the story alongside him #since Stanley is just as clueless as you are #and compared to the already powerful beings #you actually get to see Stanley grow and progress #(I mean this is just me giving yall a prompt lmao dont take this personal yo I just really like Weak to Strong tropes)#(I dont really care-)#(-yall have fun with your stuff man :)#tsp blank scripts au #tsp au #the stanley parable #the stanley parable ultra deluxe #tsp #tspud #tsp narrator #narrator tsp #stanley tsp #tsp stanley #my drawing museum

I am THIS close to going full conspiracy board trying to piece together the components of my favourite genre "spooky, mystery solving, coming of age adventures that involve a clash of the mundane and the supernatural"

EDIT: I went full conspiracy board mode

#is this anything #this is just a snippet of my whirlwind thoughts on this topic #I was always sad as a kid that I couldn't fully engage with the mystery kids crossover fandom #because I'd never watched Coraline or played Psychonauts #but was a HUGE fan of Gravity Falls and ParaNorman (and others like otgw and invader zim)#and my longtime passion project story Turned Yesterday is essentially my own take on that sort of genre #gravity falls #coraline #psychonauts #paranorman #and loads of others #mystery kids #EDIT: accidentally posted the wrong version of that last chart SDHTGRFSED it makes more sense now sorry

im so so sick of the infantalizing takes of "this children's media is soooo dark its not for kids!!!" and it's just a millennial recounting scene for scene what happens like this

#FAIRYTALES ARE STORIES MEANT TO TEACH CHILDREN HOW TO DEFEAT THE BOOGEYMAN #NOT PRETENDING THE BOOGEYMAN DOESNT EXIST AT ALL #screaming crying thrashing #im so so sick of it like its the most brainrot take #thinking that children cant understand or be exposed to “darker adult themes” when those themes are just Life #theres an entire genre of youtubers who do nothing but recap scene for scene and go woah?? like thats so dark?? woahhh broooooo #im begging and pleading to bring back 80s dark fantasy

Understand that I am crazy and then read: This game changed what I thought games could be. This changed what I thought Batman could be, what the Batman and Jokers relationship could be. The take on them and making Joker a glorified Robin, showing the player the absolute tragedy that is their relationship, showing me how desperate and gross either side can become. Like Bruce has to prove to himself that what he’s doing, his code and his way is right and the Joker is the product of that… he’s the product of all of this - HIS CHARACTER is THAT. I was never the same after this, this rewired my brain. This will forever rival any Batman depiction I ever see. I’m new after this in the way that I have to mourn the person I once was before playing this. Call it a ship, a game, or a superhero story - I call this art. I’m gonna sit here for the next few months being upset at the fact that now that I’ve played this I’ll never find anything else like it.

#ive always cherished stories that focused on the relationship between two characters #its my favorite genre #especially when the characters relationship is complicated to the point where its like ‘do they hate each other?’#‘do they love each other?’#or ‘do they need each other?’#jesus did this really do a good job at that #thank you writers #batjokes #batman #telltale batman #batman the telltale series #joker #batman telltale

if the main selling point of a piece of media is “it has gay people in it!!!” it’s probably not that good

#🦌#gay characters doesnt equal a good piece of media #and watering down good media to just ‘it has gay people!!!’ is such a disservice #also ‘you should watch blank it has lesbians’ okay what is the genre what is the story what is the plot lesbian is not a genre #it’s an element or aspect of the media
