By the way, I was looking forward to finding a moment that your av is from. Once got to it I was (briefly) excited but mostly emotionally crushed

it's cool, even though the end is possibly the worst ending to anything ever. i guess the 30 seconds of ai karaoke is good

wegg's ending joins the ranks of endless eight and aot's final final seasons as one of the greatest trolls in the history of anime

I think calling a bad ending a troll is far too generous to the writer.

Troll would imply it's deliberate the author is laughing all the way to the bank, not that they turned out to be creatively bankrupt and just threw it together last minute.

the trans manga the writer of wonder egg wrote ends with the main character sleeping with the trans girl in the hospital and telling her about how her ptsd and self-hatred is caused by s genes that punish people when they get sad, and then it time skips to years later and he visits a bisexual woman he had sex with as a teenager and tells him about how he uncovered her secret twin sister as she is dying of aids. and then a girl tells him an earlier plot twist about the trans girl loving his entire myriad of girlfriends he was all cheating on at the same time was actually her and the trans girl setting an elaborate prank, and she did not actually have sex with any of them. the manga treats this all as a deep moment of personal understanding and catharsis that guy completely buys into all of that stuff as the deepest thing ever

also has a scene where the mc stands up at a school assembly and tells everyone that the trans girl might get bottom surgery, and 'you shouldn't blame her for that and say it's her own fault, just like you shouldn't say that that journalist getting beheaded in iraq was his own fault', and then the whole school stands up and claps

it's a deeply weird work

the good vibrations guy is a mood, though. it's insane how depressing, numb, and awful it is the entire way through without ever feeling like it's too much.

i know it's probably just because the tl was awful but. "she's going to cut off her penis. her entire penis. and she's not even scared. how can you not admire that courage?" is. like man i'd. i'd applaud that line if the point of the scene was to be a joke about how insane that speech was and not the writer thinking it was brilliant and inspiring

sunu sumu is nuts because it's an incredible manga of, bizarre jokes about a guy who thinks he's a brilliant trans ally doing and saying things that make no sense whatsoever. but no the guy is supposed to be right. you are supposed to think he's smart. at no point is anything about the protagonist called into question. even when depicted doing really awful and near sociopathic things he's still written like you're supposed to admire him and think he's cool and interesting. it is one of the most confusing works of fiction i have ever witnessed

though it's, also legitimately interesting how it highlights what's good about wonder egg. the girls in wonder egg are really fun leads who have a great, natural dynamic together during the period of the show where it's watchable. sunu sumu doesn't really have anything like them so, it takes like no time to descend into being near unreadable and completely narratively incoherent and unlikable. the trans girl gets some good lines but she also gets the least lines in the entire story and it's surreal cause only when she's getting to take the stage does it ever feel like the story has a single cohesive shred of understanding and empathy for her. but she's not the main character so that doesnt get to happen often

Wonder Egg's characters were really good and kept me into the series as the second half started to go down the drain but the show even ruined that in the end
