hi! i actually took time to actually watch episode 6 of season three (of animaniacs)
and uhhh- jesus christ-
what the fuck??
i thought we all agreed starlight was a BAD influence on people-
starting a cult because a friend of yours moved away is bad enough-
BUT EXPERIMENTING ON WHAT IS TH EQUIVALENT OF CHILDREN BECAUSE YOUR TWIN BROTHER MISSED YOUR BIRTHDAY IS EVEN WORSE!!!!

My thoughts on DuckTales (2017):
(so far as of season 2 episode 18)
(this might include some inside jokes I have with @diamondblueorchid)
DuckTales is pretty neat.
I'm really enjoying it so far, the writing is surprising me.
So far my favorite characters are (in order):
Webby, Lena, Della, scrooge, Violet, Fenton, Donald and huey (oh and Boyd but I'll get to him later)
Webby: I love Webby. I love her un breakable spirit, her passion for friendship, her love of her new found family, I love the fact that she's a epistemophile (Someone who has an intense love of learning). I love that she's two seconds away from a brain aneurysm. Webby kinda reminds me a lot of season 1 luz. I love her energy. Webby is practically refreshing in hindsight. I love that she cares, not just about learning, but about her friends. About her family. I love how forward she is. Webby is my number one favourite. Sure shes a lil goofy, she's a lil cringe but hey! She's 12! All 12 year old girls are cringe. But that just makes her better.
Lena: Lena is by FAR refreshing. She's kind of like sunset (post rainbow rocks) I love Lena, I love that she got jealous over Violet but now the three of them are friends. I know shes probably not but, Lena is a total lesbian; (i know I joke about it but the way Lena seems to look at Webby-) I love the fact that Lena is protective, wanting to keep the new friends (and potential family) safe. Lena, they could never make me hate you.
Della: I LOVE Della, I love just how crazy she is (though it's probably from all the time she spent on the moon) I love that she has no impulse control, I love that you can see EXACTLY how she's the mother of her boys. I love her relationship with Donald and scrooge. Della is everything in every right direction. Della is a bullseye in every right direction. Della is impulsive, only for the fact that that's all she could do, spending nearly a decade on the moon- (also guys: she figured out how to fix a rocket BY HERSELF?? Della is INCREDIBLY smart, not only did she have to figure out/learn how to fix her own rocket but also learned ACTUAL rocket science!!!, she also learned how to smelt gold????) she gained friendship (through penny) on the moon and was able to achieve what she wanted (to go home and see her kids)
Scrooge: what can you say about the man himself that no one else hasn't already said before? I love how stubborn he is, he's so head strong. He loves his family (if he may not show it at times) hes adventurous and strategic when he needs/wants to be. (He's also voiced by David tennet which: is always gonna add up to my favourite character list) There's not much else to say (aside from a few notes which I'll add later)
Violet: I adore violet, I adore this lil hummingbird! Who ever decided that adding Wednesday's birdsona to DuckTales was a good idea: I hope you got a promotion! Adding violet was a good idea! I've only had her for a like two episodes, I'll come back when I've finished the series to add more notes on her.
Fenton: ahh Fenton. I love this absolute dork. I love that he's essentially duckbergs ironman. I love his mom. I love that he's awkward and clumsy, I love his stupid lil catchphrase. I'm really glad they added Fenton. I'm glad they made Fenton who he is. There's no one better for the role of gizmo duck than him.
Donald: I love Donald. Always have. Always will. Not much to say except for a few notes (there's gonna be A LOT of character notes I'll add at the end, their more of "writing critics" than anything but nothing major)
Huey: Huey is my favorite triplet. I love that he's cautious, I love that he's very "play-by-the-rules" I love the fact that he's just a huge dork. Maybe I'm just partial to characters who wear red hats ( ;3) I love that he tries hard to bond with his mom (even though he might not understand sometimes) I love that he may-be autistic. I love this kid.
Boyd: I LOVE THIS SWEET BABY!!!! AHHHHH!! I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM: THE FACT THAT HES JUST ASTRO BOY, THE FACT THAT HES VOICED BY GUMBALL (which is why I'll be referring to him as gumball from now on)
(some honorable mentions:
Launchpad, I love this dumbass himbo and his new boyfriend.)
Drake is also included here even though he's only been in one episode. Note: I totally get it now)
-
Okay now for some mediocre characters:
So for this to make sense:
I have a thing where: if an actor has played one character and then voice another it's practically the same character. Example:
Dewey: Dewey is voiced by Ben shwartz (also known for playing Leo and Sonic) so to me (as a joke) I refer to Dewey as "Leo"
As for character notes: he's an adrenaline junkie, he gets it from his mom. He's the more tolerable one on this list.
*
Louie: Louie is....okay, I like his relationship with scrooge (he DEFINITELY learned his lesson after all those stairs XD) I like his relationship (so far) with Goldie, the fact that it's just a kid and his Grama. But I don't understand the ship (IYKYK) maybe outside of aesthetics but I really don't get it. I can see them being mutual friends but I just don't see the ship (not to drag wakkouie shippers, I just don't understand)
*
Gyro: gyro is.... Definitely not a character I expected to like, he's not bad. I don't hate him. He's just a massive dork (derogatory)
*
Glumgold: *hysterical laughing* HES SO FUCKING STUPID!!!! I LOVE HOW COMICALLY EVIL HE IS!!! HOLY SHIT.!!!
*
Penumbra: she's making her way there, her saving (attempting to anyway) Donald was so cool.
Sylens is also cool I guess, hate that he's evil.
-
Now for the ones I hate:
Mark beaks: OH MY GOD. I FUCKING HATE THIS MAN!!! JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. no but seriously. I fucking hate this man. He's a dweeb, he's a self centered jerk with no mind of manners, he's a cry baby- I REALLY just wanna see him get his ass kicked. Sooooo badly.
*
Magika de spell: no. This is JUST Stella (yes that Stella) this is just Stella if she were actually smart: she's conniving and evil- (that one scene during shadow war (IYKYK) was very- she's like the scariest dominatrix written. Also- how did you manage to fumble up your OWN evil speech YOU wrote IN A FUCKING DIME!?
-
Okay now for the character/writing notes:
So this show has just one small problem:
The way scrooge and donald are written.
Scrooge is written like he's meant to be Della and Donald's father (which to my knowledge is TECHNICALLY true because his sister???? Left them on his door step, leaving scrooge to raise them, this was made to my attention by @diamondblueorchid )
But the way Della and scrooge first saw each other when she returned- that was a look only a father could give his long lost daughter.
If Della HADNT returned (or if we hadn't learned she was stuck in the moon) I would've totally been okay with Donald being the triplets dad (he even says "those are MY kids" at one point)
Point is: scrooge shouldve been written as Della and Donald's father. It's a simple quirk of language that if he were written like that or if you changed it from "uncle" to either "father" or "hello dad" it totally would've made just AS MUCH sense.
*shrugs*
Also. Shadow war made me cry.

One more thing: bleakly is fucking peak. I love her. Best grandma

Anyway. This was my half baked "review" on DuckTales so far! :3 I'm gonna keep watching.
I'll update this review when I finish the series.
I just had to put my thoughts down somewhere.
Anyway folks!
Good luck my lil bugs, geese and other marcupiels
Dot stared at her reflection, the mirror was cracked. She finally got the focus on her surroundings.
Her fists were still balle, indented into her vanity, but not much to cause any real damage.
Her hair was a mess, her fur matted and twisted with her tears. She just kept staring.
It was only until she heard the click of her door opening that she got the sense to try and fix things. She gently patted her cheeks fur and tried to brush her hair.
Yakko peeked through, knocking on the door "Dot?" His voice was soft and gentle "are you okay?" He spoke at an almost whisper.
Dot rubbed her nose against her sleeve, she sniffled softly as she rubbed her palm into her eyes. "I'm fine" she spoke in reply.
Yakko took a knee as he knelt beside her "you dont have to lie to me Dottie"
Dot had her arms crossed, she would've hit him if she weren't still trying to calm her tears.
Yakko gently used his finger to lift her chin "look at me Dorothy" a line she was all to familiar with; she decided against fighting, her bright pink eyes started into his golden yellows.
"what's wrong?"
Dot just stared into yakkos eyes, hers still searching for a reason, there had to be a reason she was upset....right?
She wrapped her arms around her elder brother. Burying into his chest as she let out a rather gutteral sob. Yakko paused; he immediately wrapped his own arms around her, rocking her as he carried her to her bed.
"shhh it's alright" he gently rubbed her back, he carefully fixed her flower band "I'm sorry" she spoke, her voice caught in her throat.
"there's no need to be" he whispered softly "you don't need to be sorry for being sad" he kissed her forehead.
