Okay so thanks to the time-jump Cassie Lang, who already expressed the desire to become her dad’s partner in crime-fighting, is now the exact same age as Peter Parker, Shuri and Harley Keener, whom they went out of their way to show at Tony’s funeral despite him only having been in one movie so far.
So if this isn’t teasing a potential MCU Young Avengers line-up where Harley becomes Iron Lad and Cassie becomes Stinger, then honestly what was even the point.

masquerade 20
20. A weird headcanon
Masquerade has never step foot inside of a movie theater. He’s always wanted too, but was too busy taking over the world. I hope he’ll get to one day
this chapter of slippery slopes ruined me…
The cake is destroyed.
C.I.T witnessed the "show-stopping lights."
Arch Villain protects the know it all.
And so, it begins…
For context: this takes place after second movie. Jojo is staying with Maddie and Tom for a few weeks while Rachel and Randal are on their Honeymoon :)

how long have you been in the bakugan community?
since it was released in America back in like 2007-2010. i never saw the full thing since it stopped being promoted after season two, like no trailers or nothing. but that was also when i started watching beyblade and yu-gi-oh, digimon, etc. so i wasn't really paying attention to bakugan anymore. but it was definitely the reason i love animes where the play some sort of game.

I know we're all talking about "Napkins" and we should, it's an incredible episode and Ayo knocked it out of the park but please, PLEASE, can we give "Ice Chips" its due respect? And not just because the acting is incredible. It's so tightly scripted. "Nothing" happens, it's just a mother and a daughter talking in the delivery room and it's EVERYTHING to me. It made me sob so hard. When Nat says "I don't want to be you", a knife goes through my heart. It's such an incredible episode and definitely in the top 5 episodes of the entire show and I will die on this hill.
you could curse a police officer out, kick their car, throw a temper tantrum and throw trash. and that still doesnt mean they get to kill you. what the fuck is wrong with yall? why do you think police get some special license to kill when they get disrespected?
if they cant do their job without murdering unarmed people, they dont deserve their badge, or anyones respect.
Hiiiiii
Pls tell me there’s still people in the MFB fandom if you are hmu.
The Beyblade anime was way more nuanced than any of us realized at the time. For a show that's supposed to be a teenage sports anime about spinning tops, it does quite a deep dive into the psyche, the personalities and mental health of its characters, which I think is rare in that genre. It does not shy away from dark, realistic themes.
We have Tyson who clearly has abandonment issues and I think that they show it pretty well. All the angst and anger he had in G Revolution was very much how a real person would react and the way he feels under pressure as a star - I think it was very well depicted.
We have Max, as the perpetual ray of sunshine and yet they obviously show how much of a face he puts up and how resilient he can be in difficult circumstances. Being underestimated repeatedly and how he comes to terms with it feels very realistic honestly. He's constantly having to prove himself to everyone - his rivals, his own friends and even his mother, who do not believe in him. It must be exhausting to be Max and I think that comes out well a lot of the time.
Kai's inability to attach himself to specific people and his lack of loyalty, as well as the depiction of how he deals with trauma (both in Season 1 vis a vis the abbey and in V Force vis a vis Wyatt) are very wonderfully shown. His emotions are both rational and real. As an adult, I think it's surprising for something so dark translate so well on screen in an otherwise innocuous and funny anime about teenagers.
Ray and the way he often feels conflicted about his loyalties and the responsibility he feels on his shoulder at every moment balanced with his ambitions give a very unique perspective to his character. I think they showed his struggles fairly well.
Hilary feeling like she doesn't fit in with the team, Kenny and his anxiety, Daichi and his excitement which overcompensates for his insecurities- there's so much layers to everyone.
And of course we have the other characters. We had Mariah and her internal turmoil in that whole Asian arc, we had the Russian boys and their whole dark past and bravery in standing up to their abuser in G Revolution, we had the spoilt Majestics getting humbled and seeing the error of their ways, we have Judy finally figuring out how to balance motherhood and her ambitions, we had Mariam stand up to her patriarchal teammates who are too blinded by tradition to see reason, we see Wyatt as the scorned fan, we see Zeo fighting just to be accepted as normal, we have Raul trying to be a worthy match for his twin sister...
And of course, Brooklyn. The dark and light angel versions of Brooklyn in his vision say everything you want to know about him.
Beyblade could have been shallow but it was not. That's what makes it unique. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
