[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??

Beans
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

Beans
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-

Beans
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
