PFFT-

Jackass #1: I love Cobra Kai but you know what character I hate? Daniel. Always glazing Miyagi and acting like Johnny isn't 100% right 24/7, it's crazy. *murmurs of agreement* Jackass #2: Nah, you know who I really hate? Sam, that whore. *murmurs of agreement* Jackass #3: Man, I cannot STAND Robby, always bitching about his trauma and shit, man SHUT UP. Almost as annoying as Demetri. *murmurs of agreement* Jackass #4, turning to me: Anyway, who's your favorite characters? Me, standing in the middle of my room absolutely covered in giant pictures of Daniel and the OG Miyagi 3: .....

Robby: Just let me take care of Kenny's training, Sensei Kreese, he'll be my responsibility.

Kreese: ...alright, but no monkey business.

Five Days Later

Robby: And then swing, yuh- Kenny: And then swing, yuh- Robby and Kenny: And then swing, yuh, AND THEN SWING YUUUUUUU-

SPIT YOUR SHIT🗣️‼️

The thing about Cobra Kai that’s so unfortunate is that it’s not a character focused show.

What I mean is, I think the writers approach things from a place of, ‘I would like X to happen, so we will make the characters get there no matter what.’ Rather than from a place of, ‘What would the characters do if X happened?’

And, yeah, some cool stuff happens in Cobra Kai, but so often at the expense of characterization. And in the process of getting to a certain place they leave no time to really explore these cool characters that they’ve made.

So many of these characters have such deep traumas and insights, but the audience never gets to see anything come of them. It’s all just left in the background.

And, possibly even worse, you end up with these 2 dimensional characters like Zara and Kwon who are just doing bad shit for the sake of doing bad shit (and I’m not even gonna touch on the racism aspect-that’s its own post). I’m not saying every antagonist needs a redemption arc, but the things they’re doing should make sense, especially if you’re going to kill one of them off. Like, if they had done ANYTHING to show that had Kwon had a different mentor things could have been different, that would have hit HARD. But instead the only real sadness is because he was a kid and Kreese brought the knife. It doesn’t hit the way it could have because Kwon was more plot device than character. He should have been a parallel to characters like Hawk and Kenny. Like, this is what they could have been had they not had the support they did to get them out of Cobra Kai. This is what happens when you let hatred lead you. Instead, asshole kid got stabbed 🤷‍♀️

And it’s just so unsatisfying to have all of these characters and never get to see the things they’ve been through get unpacked in a meaningful way.

It’s always episodes worth of conflict that they decide to gloss over in one line to get to the next thing. And it’s so underwhelming. You have these great moments of building only to have the world’s most pathetic climax.

Cobra Kai has great characters with interesting backgrounds if they’d ever follow through with the effects of those things.

Simply Miraculous Anecdote #2

I can't think of any jokes for Episode 6, this one might be the least funny one so far

Yeah, he doesn’t do much, though

What if the Ladybug wielder could speak things into existence? Like, say a previous Ladybug made up the word "platypus" and all of a sudden semi-aquatic egg-laying mammals popped up in the world?

I mean, if she needs a platypus, she probably could get one.

Headcanon: One time, Trent visited the bionic island for a week, and for that whole week, Leo relentlessly bullied and humiliated him. No one stopped him. No one tried to tell him it’s wrong. Because they know that if it wasn’t him doing it, it would be them.

Now

Demetri: Is that why Anthony's been dying laughing for the last few hours? Eli: Yeah...you know what, make it a couple decades.

Gems of Eternity: Wrath of Vocturnus | Chapter 2: Awakening of the Tiger

In the chaotic ruins of a large city, burning buildings had collapsed, corpses were splayed all over the scene, and the people who weren’t dead were either running around trying to escape with their lives, or had already accepted their fate. A black figure stood atop one of the only buildings that hadn't collapsed. He had multiple hands sprouting out of his back like a spider, and a devilish...
