A happy mother's days to the mothers of my favourite Bat Kids, some of you weren't the best for reasons out of your own hands, but I'd be damned if I let anyone tell me that each of you didn't love your special little babies with all your heart & no amount of fanon, classist or racist comics or takes will change that. This is y'all day so lets celebrate it talking about your favourite Bat Mom moment
(P.S anyone tries passing Bruce, Dick, Selina, Alfred or Jason as a Bat Mom will be promptly ignored)
Option on ShoBakuDeku? I saw somewhere you were anti Bakugo, but what about this polyship? I saw a lot of people say that Shoto fixes the ship. Tbh I dislike BakuDeku so much I left the fandom multiple times. (I dislike tsunderes so much.)
Honestly, the only thing I like about Bakugo is the Fan-cannon that he's partially deaf and that's why he's so loud, and I really just love seeing differently abled characters.
Yup! And still am after all this time!
Before I get into this ask, I just wanna make something clear. I have nothing against poly relationships and honestly, kudos to people that are in one because I'm sure it must take a lot of work to keep it healthy.
But no, I hate this ship. Bakugou is still a terrible character and is horrible to both Izuku and Shoto. That's why I stick to ShotoIzu.
Duke and Jason as Wonder Woman/Girl
Bravo just bravo you cooked big time
Duke refuses to work with the JL because Green lantern (or the flash, pick ya poison people) called him "One of Batman's sidekick's" and he was not down for that shit.
All that to say, Duke has never been anything other than his own Hero. Even when he was with the We are Robin group, he wasn't Batman's robin. He was A robin. He has work too damn hard, bleed too much, and lost one too many friends to have the all-consuming shadow of the batman black out his light.

You know what we need?, Duke & Waylon just vibing, like fun fact Killer Croc is a black man as reinforced by Absolute Batman, I just want Duke like stopping a rampage of Croc & while he is waiting for the cops he just talks with about stuff or if this is one of those cases where Croc's atavism had made him feral & he is compliant after calming down they could play some spades or dominoes shit like that. Or you could have Duke visiting Croc for help on his Literature essays when Jason is out of town.
I don't ship Batcest & I though you meant partner as in teammate, also I don't really see Duke with Tim
Out of of the male Bats, besides Alfred and Bruce, who's better for Tim as a partner? In everything?
I love them all but I adore DickTim a little more. Though DamiTim is growing on me.
I just need help deciding one of them.
(it's only one day because I'm writing a story and I need Tim to have a partner in it. Even if I don't write that part...yet.)
I realised too late this was shipping, thank God I didn't pick Duke

I dead ass saw some delulu bkdk artist make fanart of fanon "Deku" punching canon Izuku for rejecting Bakugo's offer, while also having fanon "Kacchan" act like a pathetic simp clinging to canon Katsuki's leg & crying because of canon Izuku's action
Yo Duke Nation, where y'all think Elaine is originally from, cause it says she ended up in Gotham after running from Gnomon
Am I the only one who feels that Hazbin Hotel's overall vibe is far too naive and upbeat for an adult cartoon about hell and redemption of sinners?
I feel like before writing this cartoon, Vivzie and the other writers should have made a trip to unfortunate areas of the world and watch how the lifestyle there rolls. Because hell is said to be a place of misery, where there is no trust and a lot of hate, both internal and external... Adam is an object of pure unfiltered hartred (both from writers and fandom) because he dares to live in heaven, such a safe and friendly-natured place...
And yet the sinners who happen to be main characters act more like school kids on a field trip (even more carefree than those, lol) - their selfish and sinful motives are so artificial and are brought up only when these characters need to look like a victim, not like criminals who somehow deserved a place in hell
Obviously, it's a manipulative trope to put them in a better light than Heaven and Adam (who is forever silenced by the writers and not allowed to voice any thoughts and reflections other than "hurr durr murder I luuuv murdering and being evil because that's what I was since I was born, even though Lilith and Eve, born literally the same way as me, were innocent victims from the get go, and no logical explanation for that will be provided whatsoever - men bad, women good")
In the light of all that, the sinners are too eager to trust each other and form "da epic powar of friendship" mlp-sonic-style
In a society built on terror, anarchy and survival instincts, no one would ever bother wasting vital power on noticing someone's problems and helping them out. Everyone is focused on their own problems and desires, and that's what drives them to act. Well, the exception may be family members, and even that varies
That's why Husk's intent to comfort Angel after the later attacks him over nothing at the bar, looks really fake, considering the setting. At first I thought that "loser baby" where Husk insults Angel, was some sort of revenge and Husk laughing in the spider's face. But no, it actually turned out to be a comforting song that started their friendship. Husk literally had no motivation to want to help Angel, because he was annoyed by him all the time prior. If there was some kind of basis for their bonding, I would have believed it. But not like this.
And Angel had no reason to actually like that sort of comfort. I get it when your best friend or a family member cheers you up in a harsh way - you know them. And even when coming from people you trust that can hurt. Now imagine a complete stranger doing that to you. That's actually something that shouldn't be done - trying to playfully insult or jester a person you haven't communicated with for a long enough time to gain their trust. And to make this even more strange, Angel at first reacts negatively, but then suddenly snaps to liking that disrespectful way of comforting for no reason at all.
And why did Angel even vent his problems to Husk, a stranger bartender who he'd hurt before. Wasn't he actually afraid of being laughed at and of Husk using his trauma to spread gossip around or something?
Next, Sir Pentious. In the pilot (which is officially part of canon, mind you), he already felt like a joke sunday cartoon villain, but at least he had some edge to him that made him look like a sinner with some dark history. In the series however, he gets nerfed the very moment he steps into the hotel to the point where it's painful to look at
His tendency to abuse his henchmen, his physopathic demeanor, his hartred for Cherri (instead of embarrassing attempts to get blue balled by her), his sincere power hunger - where did all that go? Vanished in a blink of an eye. All that's left of a promising snake demon is a pile of fanservice. So morally unchallenging and harmless that a viewer theoretically simply cannot resist loving him
Well i'm kind disappointed. We don't even know in what way Sir Pentious had to improve, because the plot never focused on his past, his life goals, whatever made him want to lead turf wars and whatever awful things he did in life, what was the point where he started degrading... none of that. He just became a better person after one "sorry song" and acted perfectly innocent ever since and didnt put any effort into getting ready to sacrifice himself for other main characters
The sacrifice... to me it's baffling how fast the sinners, over the course of just 6 months, actually became Charlie's family figures and risked their lives for her hotel. Such pure child-cartoon-styled power of friendship, built in hell, with the aid of a princess who cant even think through her project of helping sinners without bringing them more trouble... realistically, Charlie would have had to fight angels alone (how convenient it is that no main characters died in that chaotic brawl, right?)
And Charlie herself is far too naiive and soft-natured for someone who is free to walk along the streets of hell looking at all the muder, rape and othe horrible stuff that's happening there. Given that she's 200, Charlie had more than enough time to built up her street smarts and guts and learn to be more practical and mindful, instead of staying with the mind of a 12 year old who needs other characters to do everything for her (Lucifer, Vaggie, Alastor) and then get praised for THEIR efforts. That's hell's royalty and our main character?
Aaand since sinners are portrayed as Charlie's "people" (as if they are a nationality), sweet babies who all deserve redemption and are called innocent by Emily (I can't believe how dumb the writers made angels be) - the true essence of exterminatons is never focused on. Adam and his exterminator army are seen in the wrong, like some kind of monsters who terrorize poor souls. However, think about this - child molesters, rapists, torturers, bullies, nazists, actual racists etc died in those exterminations. Doesnt that seem like something a lot of us would want? To have scum like this disappear as revenge for people they have hurt/driven to suicide?
Exterminations are not really an act of racism, bigotry or something like that. They are an excecution of criminals, which a lot of sinners are.
But the black and white writing is trying to conceal that rather prominent highlight of the rotten part of Charlie's plan (not all sinners deserve mercy or redemption). All that was needed was to make exterminators these icky "villains" who luuuv killing and are never willing to listen
All in all, a cartoon that has an ambitious premise that should be driven by psychological reasearch/analysis and dark serious themes... makes me roll my eyes with its cliche use of "power of friendship" and " strictly good main characters, strictly bad villains" tropes. Too bad such beautiful animation was wasted on such juvenile writing that never had any effort put into it
There shouldn't even be any villains or heroes in a setting like this. Allow the lead roles (sinners in hell) do something actually questionable and be unlikable, don't coddle the viewer in fear of making them even the slightest bit uncomfortable. Allow those, who opposes sinmers, have personalities and reasons, not cliche sociopathy for sociopathy's sake to cause forced sympathy for the main characters
Pristine "safe" writing should not have a place in adult cartoons. Or else they will stay a product that'd rather be watched by 7-14 year olds instead of adults (I can't picture a single adult over 22 who would unironically call hazbin hotel a show that tackles realistic issues in an observant way)
There is a trend I’ve noticed that smut fics tend to be much more popular than anything else and honestly I just want to have something to look at to remind myself and that writing doesn’t have to have sex to be worth putting out into the community.
You know at this point I would petition for Moxxie, Ozzy or even fuckin' Striker to be Via's father figure because Stolas sucks and Blitzø is his simp
As a black person Charlie low-key gives me the ick, I get major white savior and messianic complex vibes from her which is just not it chief.
Feeling cheeky might try & make a Danny Phantom RP server on discord because damn does the fandom need one
Duke Thomas gets the same treatment in the Batfandom
Sometimes all people need to know is that John is not the "sane" one or "responsible" one of the gl's... Like the man is just as crazy as the others.

Little note to Hori: if you're going to make Shouji the victim of a hate crime, maybe do a better job of introducing the discrimination heteromorphic mutants suffer from instead of cramming it into the last arc of the series?
I'm ashamed of y'all not picking up that it was Gwen's Peter that was trans not hers, like am I the only one who saw the binder he was wearing?, It was pretty blatant to me just look here
Is that not a binder?, it is very obvious that this Peter was bullied for his gender identity and Gwen & her dad were allies.
