what are your favourite tracks on the show right now?
i already loved heaven and meltdown, so i am excluding them, but i'm obsessed with if you leave me to the point where i just keep repeating it instead of moving on??? the slinky groove, his vocals, the way he sings, "hope you know that you're sentencin' me to a life on my knees." "can't you stay for the rest of my life"?! A BOP. save my life! the horns, the SAXOPHONE, the VIBES, impeccable. science is so, so pretty. never grow up is so sweet and so quintessentially Niall™, like that's one of those songs where you simply go, yep, that's HIM! must be love because, as previously noted, he wrote that one for the nervous overthinkers and we love him for it <3
...i just named 7 songs off a 10 track album. byeeeee?! on a night like tonight, easy breezy beautiful, i feel like he could match it up with everywhere from hbw in a really cool way on tour. the show is very touching and epic. you could start a cult is romantic with a curious hint of darkness, and i found it a little jarring at first, but it's growing on me. so clearly i love the record overall lol

Not to get personal but I think the reason princess tutu stuck with me for so long after watching it is like. As someone with low self esteem and abandonment issues seeing our hero hate who she is at her core only to make a friend who not only tolerated her “ugly” side but is so so deeply charmed by who she is under the mask that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her no strings attached? That’s the fucking DREAM
It’s the fantasy of having someone who loves you even when you’ve stopped being useful, when you can’t be funny or interesting or any of the traits you try to cultivate to make yourself more palatable to others. It’s the fantasy of having someone see to the core of you and not flinching, instead, coming away more endeared than before.
Princess Tutu is about hope. When Duck, our hero who brings hope to everyone, falls into despair, her best friend is there to bring hope back to her. And I think it says something that hope is the emotion the show leaves me with too. Hope for a better future. Hope that one day, like Duck, I’ll grow out of the ugly duckling phase and be able to embrace my true self.

Since you like Koro-sensei and splatoon, I wonder what he’d be like as an octoling. Definitely a pretty strong one!
Y'all beat the Side Order secret boss yet?
I can't imagine Koro-Sensei as anything other than, well, Koro-Sensei. Making him an OctoLING is impossible for me, because I just can't see it. It wouldn't like him.
Every time I self insert him into media with me, he still looks like that no matter what. Like people who self insert as their fursona and are the only Furry in the source. I love that for them.
I love the idea of him being a huge Marina simp Fan and constantly antagonizing Pearl, just for shits and giggles, while trying to mentor 8 during their fight, giving tips while dodging. He never attacks, it's a pure battle of endurance. You either kill him or walk away.
If Splatoon ever gets back on board with anime crossovers like every other shooter I think his outfit would be a good mirror to the Squid Girl costume from Splat1! I couldn't think of shoes to go with it though sense Koro-Sensei doesn't... wear shows.... But I miss the friendship bracelet of Splat2 that let you be barefoot so I just did that! They're like the fake contacts.
