Captain Dola- Castle in the Sky (1986)

I mean...maybe his first in like 37 years. ^^'

Important: Ghibli's first butch masc woman.

This type of fame where "you become to hot til your not" usually applies to pop stars or idols. It would be interesting if this theme was also applied to Lucky Cyan story.

From her name alone, it seems like everything comes up daisies for her in the eyes of her fans, but the always doing no wrong in the eyes of everyone, including yourself.

One of her quotes:

"I want to become a normal person. One who makes mistakes. That's my true self, after all."

Makes me believe that it could be possible that her draw back of being "Lucky" is that she can't excite herself anymore and she loses parts of her inspiration to make music. Which in turn my cause the company to take notice and find someone that fits the bill with easier strings to make them perform to their brand.

I recently just rewatch the Disney movie Cars.

And boy, can I just say it has a major theme that fits perfectly with the thene in tbhx.

Because the scene between McQueen and Doc Hudson as the old race car revealed the news article of his accident that force him out of the season.

The hard hitting line when McQueen asked, "Why did you leave at the top of your game?"

And he answered, "I didn't quit. They quit on me."

The way Doc recalled how he had been out back together and ready to race again. Only to be pointed out, "You're History" and easily replaced with a new rookie.

The troupe of fame being short-lived and conditional is such a classic theme and true for every period. The movie became a sad reminder that the world has always been this way.

Ngl, I'm really hoping one of the characters, or at least one of the Xs has the same backstory.

The same theme is already hinted with Lin Ling's pinkie finger exclamation of Nice "being replaced". But both Nice and OG E-Soul's case is more opposite yet parallel theme where the company is adamantly trying to keep both "brands" in the game regardless of the consequences.

So it would be soooo interesting if they cover a story where the company instead easily abandon the hero the moment it didn't meet their expectations or made a single mistake, along with the aftermath. And if I'm not I'm gonna write one myself!

Play the Prologue and when you are on the chase with the guards and the dogs you have to escape out the door. Once you do that you’ll run into Julian and he will ask you to go to a Bar. TAKE THE OFFER. 

Also I think you need to take the Scroll in the library in the Prologue too.

Ppl who play the arcana I need help … How do I get this last Julian memory???

The Straight-Gay Misdirections in TBHX Episode 6

I finally watched ep6, and I was so right about Shang Chao. He really is just gay for Yang Cheng. Yang Cheng may have had a little crush on Xia Qing, but it was Shang Chao, who has been enthusiastically supporting him, whom he actually fell for...

But since this is a Chinese show, they can’t outright say he’s in love with a man. They can only subtly hint at it.

At this moment, I thought we were gonna have a straight date scene between Yang Cheng and Xia Qing, but then the show cut that off and instead showed us something more intimate between Shang Chao and Yang Cheng:

This scene looks like the boss is trying to match Yang Chao and Shang Cheng together, so his interruption in the earlier “date” with Xia Qing now seems deliberate.

Yang Cheng here looks like a guy feeling nervous on his first date 😂

The scene being set at night and with only the two of them around also makes it more romantic compared to the morning “date” that was interrupted by so many kids flocking the store

Another misdirection was this scene:

Oh no, the “love rival” has a surprise for the “love interest”! What will our Yang Cheng do?

Oops, false alarm! The surprise is actually for Yang Cheng.

All this time, it was always just Yang Cheng for Shang Chao.

And now this is what Shang Chao looks like in Yang Cheng’s eyes:

He looks so warm and bright and loved.

Yang Cheng’s earlier discomfort when Xia Qing mentioned that “Shang Chao asked her out” can now be interpreted as Yang Cheng actually being jealous of Xia Qing. He was uncomfortable because the man he loved had asked a girl out, but then felt relieved when it turned out to be just a misunderstanding.

More proof that Yang Cheng has fallen in love with Shang Chao...

When he saw only Xia Qing in the room, his reaction was just of normal surprise

He then asked where Shang Chao is… which is still normal. After all, they’re friends now.

But then Shang Chao finally arrived...

and Yang Cheng looks so so happy.

With Xia Qing, he was only surprised. But with Shang Chao, he was elated.

But the most convincing evidence of all was Yang Cheng and Xia Qing’s conversation at the end:

Things have been going well between the two of them, so why so serious?

Because Xia Qing has caught on to Yang Cheng’s feelings for Shang Chao. She sees him slowly falling in love with Shang Chao, while Yang Cheng still doesn’t know how to face it.

It’s true that Yang Cheng had feelings for Xia Qing before, and it’s also true that he still cares for her now. He can also see how much Xia Qing cares for him.

But these just make it all the more difficult for Yang Cheng to face his true feelings.

He feels guilty for Xia Qing

yet at the same, he can’t take his eyes off Shang Chao

And that’s why Shang Chao had to die. Because every hero love interest in this show has be to killed off by the narrative—gunshots

Pow pow

Looking at the character profiles for the top 10 and seeing which heroes are in the same company is interesting bc you get to see an idea of what kind of brand each company has for their heroes in top 10. Mighty glory specialises in unstable pretty boys and dos probably has the best pride month campaign with lucky cyan and queen. Fomo has the cutesy heroes so they probably get a lot of collabs with other brands like the in-universe equivalent of sanrio and treeman specialises in dooming your favourite characters

Female authors when their girlboss, female rage, pussy power retelling of Greek Myth gets called out for ignoring the fact that Odysseus very much did not fucking consent to Circe and Calypso’s advances and that ignoring male victims of harassment and SA is actually not at all feminist
