Seven deadly sins is my love to hate anime

For some of you, maybe for a lot of you, that's definitely Outlaw Star. For me, it's seven deadly sins.

Allow me to convince you, here are the things that did not happen in outlaw Star:

Budget changes affecting art and animation quality. If it did happen, it wasn't tragic.

Characters being overwhelmingly unrelatable.

Every single unrealistic body standard you can think of - I know it's a fighting anime, but stay with me.

Everything being a deep-seated meaningful plot line.

The writing didn't change to break consistency with the characters personalities.

Everyone is overpowered at everything they do.

Random occurrences were allowed to happen.

The relationship Dynamics weren't perfect, but they weren't unrealistically, disproportionately toxic.

Let me ask you some questions:

Do you know anyone like Gene Starwind? of course not flying personal spaceships, but the goofy guy/ gal/ other who gets roped into stuff, ropes other people in the stuff, but has everyone's back.

are you or someone you know that all too smart friend, that is only smart in that one subject?

How about the girl or boy or child next door that has a lot of potential but always plays themselves short because they shit on themselves for their flaws and always question in second guess what they think?

Do you have that loud friend that will do everything to cover up their flaws with their ego, but then when they're busted they just go ahead and break down? for as much as y'all love to hate each other, that person has surprised you on what they've had your back on, right?

do you have that person in your life that never loses their cool until they do? That person has a lot of grounded real world advice, but they're so tied up and how cool they're trying to be, that losing their cool isn't an option until it is?

You may not know everyone on this list, but you know someone. It also might be you.

And how about how every character is useful in some way? Everyone's going to look at Milfina because she was the amnesia character, but she gets to slide. Melfina was the main focal point that was also useful in terms of being the navigation and key to the ship and key to the layline.

No one is thousands of years old. There's no toxic creepy age play or power play. There are parents mentioned, but it's only Jim's and both of his parents are mentioned at some point. And seven deadly sins everyone has a dad and I guess all the men here just asexually reproduce because nobody gives a shit about where their mom is! the only reason why people care about Elizabeth's mom is because she's terrible (except Escaron). And really, that's not even her mom anymore. she's reborn as a human in every incarnation so she can die, so that seriously not her mother. Being the person and having the memories of the person are two different things.

Who do you know like any of these characters from seven deadly sins? If you do know them, do you want to?

Real talk, most of these characters are sexual predators. Let's remove everyone being thousands of years old and make them actually being the ages that they appear to be. Harley Quinn met Diane when she was a child, and that's not grooming? Elaine both looks and acts 12.

This makes Meliodas and Elizabeth normal, but now let's add in all the sexual assault! Episode 1, he gropes her while she's unconscious, and continues to group her after she wakes up. There's some shit anime needs to stay awake from in protagonist behavior, and that is that area. We don't need to associate the heroes with sexual assault. on one end, be as perverted as you want, but at least while the person is awake to slap you. And, be slapped. Don't get away it.

For seriously as the story took itself, which was way too seriously, the creators had no respect for serious plot devices like death. The whole reason why season one happened came back to life in season two or three. that whole thing about the murder that they were framed for 10 years ago comes back to life, and no one really even has anything to say about it. The main people responsible for his murder also come back to life. Elaine was also killed and was brought back to life after a long period of being dead. 

By no means am I trying to sell you out lost star. If it's your love to hate, love to hate it. I'm just saying, in terms of love to hates can we get some appropriation for what exactly we are loving to hate?

healthy choice Cafe steamers grilled chicken marinara with parmesan

I'll skip the packaging review, because you already know that part from the two previous blog post. My opinion about that hasn't changed. This is also another regular purchase for me. the overall packaging of the meal is great quality, but the parmesan amount can vary. Be aware that they skimp on the parmesan. The chicken is tender, and the noodles and broccoli have a slight firmness. It's all Greek to Me. The sauce in this one is on the weak side, in my opinion but still flavorful. something I'm noticing so far with a lot of these microwave dinners is that they're not full dinners because they focus on quality over quantity, but the quantity is was lacking. It's also the same price as the others: $2.99, on sale. Normally, $3.99 or $4.99. it won't get you full, but it can hold you over for an hour or two. I would say it's worth two or three, but not four.

I don't think miraculous was trying to be sailor moon but they have a lot in common

Here are some parallels between miraculous ladybug and Sailor Moon! Daft, clumsy teenager that believes that she's a loser when she's actually loved by everyone.  Unnecessary unhealthy and toxic relationship practices due to secret identities.  Talking animal partners. Queer coded characters! Although Sailor Moon was way more out loud about it! I don't know what France is doing. Characters lose their items and swap powers. We love power swaps, though! Love interest getting shot down and trying to deny their feeling, which makes everything worse. I will say that on Marinette's end, she never really got shot down. She just didn't know how to handle being a friend. Some of the characters can never fall in love, because of their duties. Miraculous wrote this in as a very self-imposed rule when they don't follow the boundaries that they set for the show in any other case. In Miraculous, relationships can work if people make better decisions. In Sailor Moon, the sailo...

Racism, Tim Burton, and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

A lot of people have forgotten about this, but a years ago, Tim Burton said that he doesn't cast black people because race has nothing to do with the context of any of his movies.  I think this happened after Beetlejuice 1988. Black people were casted as football players in the afterlife. That makes sense. Most football players are black. We figured out decades later why that's problematic with the Kaepernick situation. Entertainment is all black people are allowed to have so when an entertainer has a political opinion it's easy to tell them to shut up. "Dance, monkey! Dance!" narrative. But with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice having that soul train scene after he said it, the context tells me that black people are allowed to exist in Tim Burton's aesthetic if they are not stereotypical singing dancing caricatures.  A lot of (white) people will argue that Tim Burton isn't racist because he casted a Latina to play Astrid. The problem with that is a lot of Mexicans...
