Eh, I hate Ragatha, she reminds me of a person I known in real life that's a constant thorn in my side. She's incredibly fake. She acts nice for her own comfort, lying to your face as necessary and not thinking twice about it. She could be right that Jax is a dangerous person to be around, but that still doesn't excuse her manipulating people for her emotional safety. Sometimes you have to be a bit direct and give people criticism, and learning to do that is part of the difference between nice and kind. Even without the stupid sauce, Gangle clocked her on that. All of these people would be hard to get along on some level.. except maybe Pomni, she seems to be the least mentally ill person to enter the circus (at least post Dementia for Kinger, otherwise Kinger is the clear winner.)
Fr. This is also leaving out Noose's latching-onto Jax.
People have been noticing the patterns since Digital and Hellavu but I've been seeing a bit of a narrative where people are complaining about how weird it is that Gameoverse is another pilot with tons of merch. This little industry isn't hard to notice how it's fully of the pseudo internet celebrity types (usually washups from the early Newground days) that as you stated couldn't make it in Hollywood so this is the next best thing because the entry barrier is much lower.
nigga are you really projecting your real-life experiences into a fictional character as a reason to hate her?
Why do so many of these new-age writers struggle to keep their nuanced shit actually nuanced? It seems to be a trend lately.
I mean it's normal that behaviors we find insufferable in real people we also find insufferable in fake ones. It's why other people are seething about Jax, and yet some people are drawn to him. Some people like that personality type and others don't.
Considering how much they set things up in the first episode and some things got BARELY developed ever since. It really should've stayed as a stand alone episode and nothing else, leaving Pomni on the slow realization that she may stay up in that place forever without ever giving exposition on how the site works and giving Jax as little exposition as possible could really improve the show's narrative's weaknesses.
Average modern indie animation, pump out a shitload of pilots and one offs, get a half decent pilot that people flock to, but since they have no skill to actually bring a show together it falls flat as a actual series and people realize you can't milk a 30 minute idea into a multi-episodic show, indie studio either goes back to making pilots until the cycle continues or they milk the show for everything its worth since they're in it for the long run and can't turn back.
I am surprised that they didn't make Jax troon out, since the show is made by a troon and Jax's room looks like that of a preteen girl, I kept expecting a "Jax is secretly trans and doesn't want to admit it to themself so that is why they are such a jerk!" subplot, but at least Gooseworx didn't do that.
In my opinion, the series was interesting enough until either the 4th or 5th episode. There was therapyfag dialogue from the second episode, but 2 and 3 were at least focused adventures to different parts of the the circus. As others have said in this thread, the show should have really been episodic, mainly focused on the nature of the circus (a big part of its popular appeal was leaning on the whole "Y2Kstalgia/liminal space" aesthetic) and been based on a "monster-of-the-week" format. 4 could have fit in an episodic format but you could see the direction shift, while 5 is where the troon basicially stopped caring about the show outside of his self-insert.
Glitch seems to be banking on coomers buying the merch of their favourite R34bait character.
I mean idk about Sugar but Terrace literally got her start working on Gravity Falls, started dating Alex Hirsch himself, then while he was still a big deal got her Owl House show off the ground, and after that ended and by the time he lost relevancy she broke up with him. Now shes about as established in the industry as he is, and getting more work than him seemingly.
