The Visuals Of Arcane Are Amazing, But The One Personal Nitpick I Have Of Them Is That They Seem To Play
The visuals of Arcane are amazing, but the one personal nitpick I have of them is that they seem to play by the opposite of anime rules. You know how in any screenshot of an anime (not all of them, but a lot of them), you can immediately tell who the main character is because they have the lost interesting (or at least weirdest) character design, like this?
In Arcane, it's the opposite. The most interesting designs are often reserved for characters who never have speaking lines, exist for one scene, or who have a short arc and then end up dying. It's like the further away you get from main character status, the more interesting your character design gets. It's not like the designs of the main characters are BAD, mind you, I think not every character design has to be elaborate to be good and I love several of them, but it's always kind of a pity when an amazing character design appears and you know you're only going to see them for five seconds.
Particularly I'm thinking of the councillors and the chembarons, that guy with the gold jaw, transgender cat lady, fish guy, and probably some others I forgot. I hope in future arcane shows the character designs get weirder, because if they pushed it enough I think we could end up with the wildest cast of characters of all time.

Really feeling the same pain as when httyd3 came out right now. They should invent a finale to my favourite things that are good
Been really into an art aesthetic I call shitcore
Healing magic - the ability to stitch yours or someone else's wounds together with a touch - spreads, ironically, like a disease. Get healed by someone, there's a small chance you'll become a healer yourself. Perhaps this was intended by a higher power to be a nice gesture. Someone helps you, and then gives you the power to pay it forward.
For Singed, this was an exploitable loophole.

Jayvik nation pls check out my fic 🙏
A Great God Grove OC in a vague approximation of Yugo Limbo's style; their name is NumaLuma. They're the God of Freedom. They'd be the villain of GGG2 for secret reasons.

I kind of like the idea of a timebomb rapunzel au because jinx has such ridiculously long hair so it's easy to imagine visually, but the stepmother character would logically be silco, but that doesn't really make sense to me because 1. His problem in season one is everyone kept saying PUT A LEASH ON THAT GIRL SHE'S EXPLODING THINGS and he was like no. She can do whatever she wants. Even to the point where it was actively detrimental to his own revolution. So basically I can't imagine him trying to keep her in a tower. He's not the healthiest of guardians but that's not really something he'd do. Secondly, I don't think he COULD do that if he tried. Keeping someone in a tower does not work if they find a way to explode the tower
