Hi! As someone who now kinda wants to check out Trigun because of the hype, do you recommend that I can start with Stampede? Or do I really need to watch the OG anime first to better understand/enjoy it? Thank you! 🙋🏻♀️
you can start with stampede! i'd say knowing the context of the original enhances the experience but isn't necessary to enjoy the show. I would consider stampede more viewer-friendly, especially for those of us who are used to modern storytelling conventions (the original suffers the consequences of general writing trends in anime at the time it was produced and of the fact that it was produced long before the manga was finished, so the story is somewhat disjointed and has a lot of filler which makes it REALLY hard to get into.) if you do end up liking stampede, however, I'd suggest trying out watching at least SOME of the original because it adds a lot of cool nuance and context to the story that stampede tells!

Won Top 4 at locals for the Age of Overlord Sneak Peek (this made me so happy I have to share it everywhere.)
Also, another person really liked the anime (specifically 5Ds) so now we're writing with one another and I don't think I've done anything harder than trying to act normal and allistic about Yugioh. Someone at Locals also said they liked how 'excited' I was about it, and I know it probably wasn't even meant in a mean way but I still felt a bit bad cause I don't even know how to be normal!!!!!

What Chima stuff have you done so far? It's cool to see new people join the Chima community!
Oh hello! :D
I’m somewhat new to tumblr, and this is my first time making a blog that is dedicated to one fandom. I haven’t done to much in the fandom yet, but I’m happy to be in a welcoming community!
And I’m excited! I have lots of fanart I wanna do, and I was pleasantly surprised to see how active this fandom is, despite being quite small.
I plan on rewatching the Chima show as a whole, and then indulging in fanworks after. I’ve treated myself to sneak peaks of your fanfic and I can’t wait to read it!
Chima holds so many memories, watching the show with my brother, building Lego sets, and getting excited with every new season. Let’s just say I was more than disappointed when it was cancelled.
Besides all of that, I’m really happy to enter the fandom again! I don’t really know how to start posting art, and I’m a bit nervous lol. Once I finish watching the series over again, I’ll hop right into reading fanfics, posting art and discussing the series. I admire your work, as you’re both an artist and author! I’m no author, but I love reading fanfics and books.
I’m hoping this fandom will also help me care less about how many likes my posts get. The fandom isn’t dead, but it is small, and I know my art won’t get much traction. It’ll teach me to not judge my art by the amount of likes or reblogs it has.
Anyway, sorry for rambling lol. And thanks for the ask, I’m so excited to join and it’s nice to know I’m welcome :)

the media which consumes your entire soul at age 12 will forever be a part of you. this is an unavoidable consequence of living and you have to accept this fact. no matter how old you get, no matter how long it has been since you last saw its smug face peeking out from the bushes as it follows you, no matter if you think you have outrun it for good and that you're finally finally safe and you hardly even remember it exists anymore and your brain knows a few brief moments of true peace, it WILL catch up to you in your moment of weakness. and listen you don't want to hear this but sometimes this is necessary for your mental health. you will on instinct want to reject it and run away again but sometimes. sometimes you just need to watch that old show or listen to that silly song or read that weird book again as an adult and it will hurt you a little bit in various little ways but it will also heal you a little bit. you can call it nostalgia you can call it connecting with your inner child or whatever you want but just listen to me it WILL HAPPEN TO YOU TOO AT SOME POINT AND YOU HAVE TO BE PREPARED FOR THIS (i am forcibly dragged off the stage by security)
