LOVE☆STRUCK
[tangled/new ep spoilers, but it's 'luc is too critical of children's cartoons time'] i gotta..... be real...
LOVE☆STRUCK
that was... maybe one of my least episodes so far in terms of execution
LOVE☆STRUCK
i'm really hoping that the finale will be strong but whoa the pacing in that episode
LOVE☆STRUCK
i just don't understand why we had to have fillers like Pascal's Dragon instead of them using that time to actually lay the ground for Cass to distrust Zhan Tiri?
LOVE☆STRUCK
and maybe that's me misunderstanding the production of this and everything
LOVE☆STRUCK
i feel really caught between seriously enjoying this show and... feeling like it's lacking in certain places
LOVE☆STRUCK
i will say this has absolutely renewed my need to be a part of this circuit again, thouhgh
LOVE☆STRUCK
seeing the strength of the storyboarding makes me want to do storyboards again
LOVE☆STRUCK
i'm just so dissatisfied with the pacing rn... and some other more personal themes BUT i wanna see how those themes are resolved first
LOVE☆STRUCK
rn i'm just like, I DON'T WANNA SAY JILTED BC THIS SHOW ISN'T MADE FOR 20-YEAR-OLDS
LOVE☆STRUCK
it's made for kids
LOVE☆STRUCK
but i dunno i feel.... bad.... about the beginning of this ep
LOVE☆STRUCK
i really liked seeing Our Cassandra again, though
LOVE☆STRUCK
anyway i just wanted to say these things here, in my own plurk, and not in anyone else's bc there are fun things to be excited about
LOVE☆STRUCK
and i am not gonna put down other people's excitement just bc i'm weirded out by pacing
corpse bride
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought Pascal's Dragon was weak, even for a filler episode
LOVE☆STRUCK
it was cute! but WHY
LOVE☆STRUCK
when they clearly need more narative tme??
Drizzmas
yeah.....
LOVE☆STRUCK
if we'd had even one episode with build up to Cass distrusting Zhan Tiri more fully, it'd make a difference
Drizzmas
the finale's going to be 66 minutes so, no matter what, it's going to be way longer
LOVE☆STRUCK
but right now they make her seem... idk i joke about her being a dumb jock but she's not so unintelligent that she should fall this easily sometimes???
LOVE☆STRUCK
esp when she distrusted EVERYTHING in S2??
LOVE☆STRUCK
aaagh
corpse bride
like, it didn't add much in the way of characterization, and they kept making servant guy hold the idiot ball the entire episode
LOVE☆STRUCK
at least it wasn't Eugene holding the idiot ball like usual-
Drizzmas
it's been hard seeing Cass being manipulated so hard from a very emotionally sensitive place
LOVE☆STRUCK
i WILL say though, my god, they are good at holding the foreshadowing and motifs
LOVE☆STRUCK
that's strong, at least
corpse bride
i keep waiting for the whole "prince being blinded by thorns" trope to pop up somewhere because my god
corpse bride
the melodrama, can you imagine?
LOVE☆STRUCK
IT WOULDA BEEN NICE
