So What do You Think the post Episode 9 Adventures were Like?
That is my Question
What do You Think Pomni & Friends Adventures are the Final Episode were like? We got a few hints after the conclusion drawing Montague in the credits in the final episode
I must imagine it got crazier when someone else entered the Circus to because if there a will there is a way & all that
I definitely wanna see how it was like in some form like a comic book or something like that in the future
Would be interesting to see Caine along for the ride now instead of monitoring things his an actual member of the Team now
But thats me what do you think?
What animiniz is this one
i went to open a murder drone animiniz box expecting j or uzi but instead i got this one does not show it on the box is it a super rare jk
If Runner Tari had her own Apartment how You Imagine it Looking Like?
That is my Question
Like imagine an alternative timeline were Tari survived the events of the Series Finale
Then at some point she got her own apartment probably near MD5 headquarters
How do vision it looking like? What type of apartment you think she can afford in the competitive gaming cash?
Theo would probably live with her though that basically like rising a child more or less
She could probably see MD5 headquarters from her window I imagine
But thats me what do you think it would be like?
Finally got Kit plushie (and the rest)
Had my Gobbles stuff (and Kit pin) since mid-June, but Kit plushie came today
V vs the sentinels is one of the best fight scene in murder drones ever.
He finally arrived.
FINALLY AFTER TWO GODDAMN WEEKS OF ANGER AND STRESS
As a malaysian, it feels wonderful to see a new generation watching a very wholesome cartoon
Is it just me?
I have ordered some merch off , the official store, i bought 4 things.
3 sideshow mystery box things
God Caine animatez
I ordered it around 2 weeks ago and around a week ago maybe less it said it was in transit, I have it on my Shop app and it says that I go on to glitches site it says its also it transit but It also says it arrived in my country and is just waiting to be ready for delivery.
It is so messy with little information and updates, and just earlier, I sent an angry email to glitch questions on my parcel and where the duck it was, and where my updates were and I asked of a rough time on when I would receive it and was told to wait 24 hours to 72 hours for a response! Wtf
It is a joke, especially since i paid a disgusting price for shipping alone, and it cost bloody more than 2 bits of merch nearly, and I dont even live in the middle of nowhere 😑.
Is this a common issue because no one is talking about besides the out of nowhere tik tok, as these issues weren't there with SMG4 merch, so why now 🤔.
Im just so confused 😕.
I think my cyn duplicated
Should i be worried i look away one sec and this oil covered cyn appeard
Why does Gooseworx always portray themselves so weirdly when doing selfies
She so silly but she look like a Mandela catalog character
People really comparing Jax to Homelander and Bateman
The only two of these characters are on the same level as Jax are Clark and Bojack, and I'd still say they're worse because the harm they caused was more intentional and conscious.
Curtains + Messy bun = Perfection!
Art by me! (UnKnown Shaggy) I honestly really enjoyed drawing them with this hairstyle! They look so cute!
I'm starting to realize that it wasn't that fans hated Jax's ending, they hate the contrast between his and Caine's ending's
As someone who liked both Jax and Caine as characters and was among the fandom the day the leaks came out, I've noticed the most consistently divisive part of the ending were Jax and Caine's arcs. Initially, I thought maybe people had a point that fans were just upset it didn't end the way they wanted or even "we lacked media literacy". But as I sat down, I realized there WERE genuine flaws to their ending's. Do fans hate it because only one got redeemed? No, many fictional stories have one character get redemption while the other doesn't, The Owl House did it with The Collector and Belos. Is it because Caine was the one redeemed and not Jax? No, for the first 6 episodes, the majority of the fanbase would've easily agreed that was the case, especially as Gooseworx even called Jax "irredeemable".
The reason why a lot of fans disliked their ending's is due to lack execution and lack of build-up. Gooseworx has confirmed Jax was ALWAYS meant to abstract. It was in the very first pitch of the show. She even made a post decades ago about wanting to make a character hateable, then get the audience attached and then kill them off. She's been clear the story has always been set in stone from the start. Yet somehow, she managed to write it so it felt like there was more build-up to JAX being the one redeemed before the finale. Although many were certain after episode 6 Jax was going to abstract and his story would be a tragedy, epsiodes 7-8 seemed to subvert that. Jax was saved by Pomni. Jax actually contributed in both episodes to helping the group. We saw several scenes of the group making it clear that all of them, even Jax, are in it together.
Having Jax backslide in the finale and even abruptly abstracting (offscreen) isn't flawed on its own. Irl, people who are changing for the better can regress again. I don't hate the idea of Jax's story serving as a cautionary tale. But the contrast of Caine's arc is what makes it appalling. Caine was a sympathetic/tragic character from the start but his redemption had NO build-up. Ever since episode 5, really episode 3, the series has been building towards Caine finally crashing-out and snapping. Its repeatedly empathized how he seemingly can't grow beyond his program and how the humans simply do not care about him (Beach Episode, none care he'd be left behind). This culminated in episode 8 with Caine finally having his breakdown and having a tragic fate with his deletion,. Everything pointed to HIM being the cautionary tale of refusing to grow, only for it to be revealed in the last 20 minutes The Void was just a recyle bin, he realized he was the problem, he removes the blue AI and now he returns to replace Jax in the group.
Furthermore, most of the arguments I see used to explain why Caine was "more deserving" than Jax for redemption are actually misconceptions.
- "Caine was an AI fulfilling his program, Jax was a human choosing to be like this", no the ENTIRE SERIES happened because of Caine growing beyond his programming. He broke free of his containment and consumed the blue AI, causing C&A to be shut down, made the circus and then started bringing the players in from their mind files. Caine's biggest flaw as Pomni said, was he refused to listen.
- "Caine didn't know he was causing harm, Jax did", even without episode 8, that's not 100% true. Caine wasn't malicious but the fact he lied about hiding their names and controlling their minds does show to some extent, he had always capacity for moral agency. Furthermore, Gooseworx herself confirmed Jax genuinely has deluded himself into thinking his bullying isn't actually that bad. Most abusers don't see themselves that way and it applies for both. People say Caine had good intentions but its clear from epsiodes 5-8 that he cared for satisfying his own ego above all (Pomni even says as such) and cares more for the idea of the players than anything. At least Jax cried for Kaufmo, Caine didn't show emotion for Kaufy OR Queenie, which gave the vibe he cared for the players for the validation he can get and knows they can be replaced like NPC's.
- "Caine was only like this once, Jax was just bad", Jax started off normal too though. He only became a bully later during his time in the circus. Caine was the one who trapped his "brother" out of pure jealousy from the start and while not consistently a prick like Jax, he ultimately still became intentionally malicious later on. Both had reasons but not excuses.
- "Caine took the first chance, Jax had numerous" Caine had several chances too. He saw the humans being happy in Untitled, but prioritized them being happy on his terms. In episode 8, he came to the conclusion THEY were the problem. Even when they truthfully called him out what he did wrong, he choose to double down and torture them worse. And this leds to the biggest and final issue. Jax was like this for a few years, Caine spent 21 years manipulating the humans and refusing to compromise with them (pretending he can't opene several adventures at once), which almost certainy could've prevented numerous abstractions if he was honest earlier.
And the final is pacing and easy forgiveness. The fact all of Caine's growth comes AFTER he got deleted is the true problem fans have. Jax had numerous moments where he got close to opening up (the cafe with Gangle, towards Pomni in the finale) but changed his mind. Caine is nowbasically outright confirmed by Gooseworx to be immortal, since The Void is a recylce bin. Everything deleted just gets sent there. So this basically means Caine had eternity for change. Its never "too late" for him and that's why he gets a better ending. Both he and Jax only realize their flaws AFTER their "death" and want to change/be saved, but Caine gets to come back solely due to his powers. Caine went from torturing people AM style to having a redemption the literal next episode. Many Jax fans agreed he didn't need to be fully redeemed by the end, but rather it was being set-up and the series should end with some forgiving him (Pomni, Kinger, maybe Ragatha) while other's don't (Zooble and Gangle). Instead, we get "Caine just to remove a piece of himself to change, comes back to the group and he's instantly accepted by everyone".
I've seen people call Jax and Kaufmo's relationship a retcon but the signs were always there
His reaction to seeing his abstraction, when Caine locks him in the cellar, to Kaufmo's funeral. Even him grabbing the bowling ball and mentioning he'd been looking for it/thanking Kaumo for watching it indicated they were close.
