There Is Some Rhetorical Term To Describe Ashihara's Decision To Make Suwa A Prominent Figure For Osamu's

there is some rhetorical term to describe ashihara's decision to make suwa a prominent figure for osamu's journey at the beginning of both the rank war and the away mission test arcs...

like even though suwa is playing seemingly opposite roles (an opponent in the rank wars, an ally in the away mission test), he's ultimately serving the same role in the narrative: he's helping osamu grow as an agent and as a captain.

in the rank wars, he (along with arafune) was osamu's first rank war opponent. rhetorically speaking, he was there to kickstart osamu's journey into team-strategy.

then in the away-mission, he was the captain of the squad osamu was assigned to -- serving as a guide for osamu to learn the mechanics of an away-mission/learning how to work with agents he's unfamiliar with/even acting as a role model with him being the more experienced captain/etc etc etc

i think it's also interesting to note that suwa being the first of something for the the betterment of his juniors also literally happened IN the story when he got turned into a trion cube during the aftokrator invasion arc. in one of the trivia/author notes or whatever ashihara literally said that "[Suwa would] feel bad for Kitora or Chika if they were to be teased for [being turned into a trion cube], so it doesn’t really matter if it’s happening to him."

there is no point to this post. i just think suwa is neat. mama suwa real? idk

What's a Coup?

Palace attendant: The Queen of Hearts has declared a coup at Auradon Prep. King Benjamin: Does... does she know what a coup is? King Benjamin: Auradon Prep is a high school. King Benjamin: That's like going to the Grocery Store, barricading the door, and declaring yourself the Mayor.

I gotta be honest, Jane is so beautiful that it distracts me from the plot. Like oh no, Mal looks stressed, I wonder--omg how are Jane's eyes that big and blue?

Aw, Carlos looks so nervous to ask out--shit her hair is so curly and dark and shiny.

Wait that's so cute! FG is happy for her daughter dating Carlos! That's--holy fucking shit she's so GORGEOUS WHAT.

There's crack in her beautiful eyes I swear

Anyway, it just always seemed hilarious to me that they gave Jane the "I'm not pretty enough" shtick because she's the actress/character who takes my breath away most often in the series. Classic teen movie makeover of an already beautiful girl.

Bonus adorable faces:

Anyway this has been a certified Women Are So Pretty post. See you next time on I've Taken Too Many Screenshots of These Movies.

After a LOT of searching, I finally found a website where I can rewatch Generator Rex, an old favourite of mine. LOVED this programme growing up. There are ads, but I can watch it, and for anyone else who loves Gen Rex, and wants to rewatch it, here are the links.
