I just finished watching "S1: EP5" of the 2003 TMNT series, and I am in tears.

 I feel so bad for this random robot, it was a child. A CHILD. Hearing how they were talking about killing it like it was nothing hurt, and when Donnie used the flamethrower to demonstrate they were weak to heat. Dude, I felt so fucking bad. Although it was cute how this random street thug ended up adopting the robot, and genuinely showed real concern over them. THE ENDING BRO- He's sitting there holding the mask of his now-dead robot child, and CRYING?! WTF!? And the turtles acting like it's not a big deal? They are supposed to be the good guys, why can't they see how much that guy cared about his son?!

SO TRUE!!

Why Casino Cups Is a SUBVERSIVE MASTERPIECE

a character who has never met his biological parents and doesn’t give A SHIT, doesn’t have romantic subplot and is possibly aroace which is great representation (Cuphead)

a character that DOES want to meet his biological parents but has motives that actually make sense with his character, is very nice but has deep seated character flaws that drive him through his internal conflict (Mugman)

neither of these “never met their parents” cases have the cliche dramatic“I CaN neVEr BE a FuLFiLleD aNd cOmPLEte PerSOn uNLesS I knOW WhO gAvE BirTH tO mEEeeEe!” motive

the Devil and King Dice aren’t one-dimensional bad guys. They have done bad things but are far from irredeemable as characters and can’t really be pegged as hero or villain. They have heavy backstories, understandable motives, and even good intentions sometimes.

I’ve seen so many Cuphead fanfics that (given that the game takes place in the 1930s) make the characters and/or undertones sexist and homophobic to make it “historically accurate” but Casino Cups just throws all that bull shtick straight out the window. A character’s gender is never made relevant or even mentioned outside of other characters using their pronouns and it is bursting with queer representation which I am so freakin grateful for.

the themes it deals with about death and moving on in life are so unique and thought provoking for a Cuphead au. I have never seen anyone make this take on the cups and their relationship with the potion, especially not with Mugman.

the lore is an absolute GOLD MINE. All Bright’s theories and headcannons about why the isle is so full of magical creatures and people with crazy powers is so intuitive that even the tiniest details from the game like light shining out of the Devil’s neck or King Dice’s green eye animations can spout rich and in-depth backstory and something new and interesting about the characters or the worldbuilding that had never even crossed my mind before. It makes these characters and the world that they live in so fun to learn about as I read the comic and always leaves me wanting more of these looney tuney byatches.

i of course have to mention Bright’s BEAUTIFUL art style. Honestly when I first saw their drawings of the cups I was a tad bit skeptical of how different they looked from their original designs in the game, but overtime I’ve grown to adore how grown up they look and their sick color schemes and card aesthetics.

I love this series so freakin much and I’m so proud of what it’s grown into and how far this religious toon town has come over the years. I can’t wait to see more now that Camodiel is taking the reigns. Remember to pack your tea, coffee, and just a little bit of whiskey and look out for soul collecting demons! I’ll see you at the casino!

I think this is my new favorite thing, I don't have the words. Oh my god.

I’ve been meaning to draw Alastor and his furby organ because, let’s be honest, it’s one of the best tidbits of canon that Vivziepop has said about him.

BRO WHY DID YOU HAVE 200 SONGS READY TO GO 😭😭😭

It was a really big missed opportunity to not explore! I thought that when we saw the abuse scene with him and his dad, they would point out how his dad is extremely racist (let’s be honest, he is). This would then lead to a deeper dive into Billy’s character, and how he was only being “racist” towards Lucas because he knew that Max would get hurt because of it. He needed to stop it before the news could get to his dad as if it didn’t matter if he saw it. But if his dad saw, he would also begin to abuse Max. Which was something he would not let happen to his little sister. This is coming from my own experiences as an older sibling, and what I already know about psychology (with it being my major). 

I think the thing that bothers me most about the racism storyline with Billy is that it’s handled so poorly, it centers Max so much, that it becomes a “not all white people” storyline. Lucas is incidental to it, really, because at the end his feelings about what happened aren’t even discussed. He never gets to talk about it. The white people “fixed” the racism for him and now it’s done forever and we never talk about it again. Only Max even knows what Billy said? Who makes a racism storyline where the whole point is to valorize white people? What kind of seventh heaven ass storyline is that?

And I understand at the end of that story not liking Billy. It couldn’t be me, because I want Billy to learn differently and be better to Lucas. I want an actual resolution. But I guess I understand if you just skate on the surface, thinking Max is good white person and Billy is Bad white person and not thinking beyond that. Because the story doesn’t ask you to.

I KNOW!! I just finished the episode and I’m in fucking tears rn, the dude fucking adopting them too! It was a found family thing and was adorable. I was loving every minute of it, then they FUCKING KILLED THE CHILD??? 

hey was anyone going to tell me that tmnt 2003 killed the robotic equivalent of a 3-year-old child or was I supposed to watch Nanos myself?

HOLY FUCK NO- THE WAY JASKIER’S FACE FUCKING DROPPED WHEN JENNIFER PUT HER HANDS ON GERALT’S FACE!! NOOOOOOO!!!!!
