Do you believe that this series will turn to shit?

Buying mugs?
You people are crazy.
I haven't actually bought a mug in my life, but I'd definitely rather buy one from some knockoff brand on Etsy and save a few bucks and not get wrangled with paying x2 more than I need to for something because of the dreaded shipping prices.
 
after seeing this meme in another thread, I just HAD to do this....

Yeah, why do some people have to make every friendship they seen in a piece of media a romantic one in their head-cannons, AUs, etc.

What's wrong with characters just being best friends and nothing more?

Because fandom and fujos don't care about relationships that aren't romantic. It's not as interesting to them. Nor do they have the capacity to write any of the scenarios that they dream up about friends. It's only about who's dating or fucking.

Quoting C.S. Lewis on this one: “Those who cannot conceive Friendship as a substantive love but only as a disguise or elaboration of Eros betray the fact that they have never had a Friend."

Second'ing the notion that Dante Alighieri, C.S. Lewis, John Milton, and Victor Hugo should be your main inspirations for any good Biblical derived media. Also, reading the bible and theological texts to better understand what you're presenting.

It's the same rule that's applied to any creative media: You need to really know the rules of the medium you are using before you can break the rules. It applies to all forms of art, even more so to writing, so it doesn't turn out like shit.
 
I mentioned here on my first comment on the thread that this episode highlights how the show has no edge anymore.

The joke about Blitzo refusing to say retarded is that he said it very slowly in the pilot but it's been so long that it's "too offensive" now, but it doesnt the intended way because the cowardice is still clear. The other joke is that blitzo hesitated to kill a child, while in the pilot they killed one and chopped him to pieces while quipping about it.

Also note how Blitzo has, hilariously, not "murdered" anyone in season 2. The humans in E2 and crimsom's goons was self defense, and Fizz stalker received multiple warnings until he pulled a weapon. Even their one I.M.P. target in S2E5 that blitzo wanted to kill died via random firework while he held barb.

This is the guy that was killing a bunch of innocent humans just to win a bet against verosika. And the trailer tease their next target will be ghosts.

What i'm saying is that it's not confusing, Blitzo and his hell are a lot more sanitized and advertiser friendly now.
The thing is people were complaining about it when the pilot initially aired, but if they knew anything about Brandon Roger's videos, they wouldn't have been so "Pikachu surpise face" about it because that kind of humor is right up his ally. Didn't really matter that they backpedaled though, because is the episode where Blitzø acknowledges he can't say retarded anymore, people still complained that he was making fun of a mentally handicapped person. And all I'm thinking about this is "who the fuck cares? They're demons in Hell. Why are you expecting these kinds of characters to have the same moral standards as you?"

I swear, "kinning culture" really pushed a huge setback on fictional characters cause people are putting themselves way too much into them. No wonder people got upset that Jax from TADC was just a funny asshole. Because apparently the only good kind of asshole is a "nice asshole". And I'd argue that kind of asshole is the biggest asshole of them all.
People are continuing to wonder where their playbills that they paid $70 for are, and Viv has predictably resorted to blocking.

Probably doesn’t help that more wildly expensive shitty merch is out.

$44 for a shitty mug? I have legitimately seen people paint better mugs at ceramic/pottery stores. It’s even worse if you’re outside of the US. I’ve heard shipping can get up to $63.
Does anyone know if it's only some people not getting them, or is it everyone who bought one? Cause the first I could kind of understand (still kind of a bitch move to block them though), because there could be problems with shipping from the initial delay, especially if people had changed their address. If it's the latter one though, that's highly strange. The only reason why it got delayed in the first place was because they didn't want people to post spoilers of what was shown on the playbill before the show came out. You think that they at least send an apology email if their was an issue on their end.
 
Viv has amazing talent as an artist
I mean, is she? I don't doubt her animation ability but her artistic ability is kinda weak to be quite honest, a lot of people think her style is original and refreshing but for me it get old really quickly, the Timber video is a good example, 10 years of arts and her style hasn't develop a bit, Timber girl looks like Alastor if he has a secret daughter, the prince is Angel Dust with one eye, the owls monsters whatever at 2:08 look like Stolas' lost children, I agree that she is great at drawing demons but once she has to draw humanoid creatures she instantly loses all her creativity and just give generic triangle face/nose/eyes/teeth with twink body.
