Wanted To Draw Something Fun. Decided To Redraw This Manga Page. It Was Fun!

NYALL

Are you constantly wanting to do A Thing but never know how to do The Thing?

Does figuring out where to start a task and knowing what steps need to be taken to complete the task stress you out?

Lemme introduce you to...

goblin.tools

For example, you want to clean your oven.

You simply go to the website and in the "Add new item" box, you type "clean the oven". You can then also use the lil chillies next to the plus to change the level of breaking-down you'd like. Next, hit the magic wand-looking button to break it down!

You can check off items as you go, and further break things down if desired!

It works on large tasks such as planning a cross-country trip, writing a book or going on vacation and smaller tasks such as cleaning an oven.

There's also tools for task time estimation, meal-prep that takes into account dietary constraints, equipment and such, and a braindump compiler.

It's available as an IOS/Android app for less than a dollar, or a free web app. I can't hype this up enough, the developers deserve so much love for this.

things we know are going to happen in vld but didn’t happen in season 5 so will most likely happen in s6:

romelle / allura’s dnd character ? where did she go

and also the entire episode where jeremy shada said they would be playing a dnd type of game

whatever scene made steven yeun cry while recording? bc that sure as heck didn’t happen in s5

keith back on team voltron and in red paladin armor but this time with galra markings on his face (this was in a promotional poster)

barlee (voltron storyboard reviser) saying the next season (s6) would be an emotional wreck for everyone, no matter which side you’re on. 

“prepare to get broken” were her exact words (:

jeremy shada saying how ‘if a character is suddenly gone from the show or is not seen as much they’re going to come back and have a huge arc’

(aka. be prepared for a huge keith and real shiro arc)

also joaquim said keith would return and that his arc is very interesting

lance actually using his altean broadsword (?)

lance continuing to be skeptical about lotor 

(jeremy said lance still doesn’t trust him, you can also tell this at the end of s5)

blake michael joining vld and whatever mysterious role he will play

josh, jeremy, bex, kimberly, and tyler (the paladins’ VAs), as well as AJ (lotor’s VA), steven (keith’s VA), and rhys (coran’s VA) all in the recording booth together

when all voice actors are in a recording booth together, it means they have a significant amount of scenes together, so it can be assumed that keith and lotor both have a decent role with the rest of team voltron in at least certain parts of the next season

jeremy saying the team would have a reunion with their families somehow, hinting that they would be traveling back to earth

jeremy promising that the keith / lance relationship that is currently set in place will evolve into more of a mutual respect with less bickering and will lean more towards friendly jokes instead

lance will stand up to shiro but it’ll be hard for him to do so since he views shiro as such a huge inspiration and role model in his life

Punished: A Ruby vs. Tyrion Analysis

So I loved the latest RWBY episode, but I’m surprised that people are ragging on Ruby to the extent they are for joining the fight, like: 

She’s a kid. They’re all kids, but Ruby is two years younger. People are pretty impulsive at that age. 

That being said, this is very much her characterization. Jaune, for all his improvement, couldn’t hope to stand up to Tyrion, so given the chance he’ll step back and let an experienced Hunter take the lead. Ren is very cautious and logical - same there. And Nora, despite her eagerness, tends to both stick by Ren and won’t pick a fight if others don’t want her to (think back to her offer to break Cardin’s legs. Despite how ‘impulsive’ and ‘violent’ she is, she leaves him be once she knows Jaune doesn’t want that). Ruby though? She’s ALL ABOUT fighting the good fight no matter what. It’s one of the first lines in the whole series - she’s a “simple soul,” she wants to become a Huntress because she was taught to “help people,” and that drive is reinforced strongly on their mission with Oobleck. Ruby is the only one who isn’t questioned about her choice to be a Huntress because she’s the only one who fights without true, ulterior motives. It’s not in her to stay on the sidelines. 

However, she’s VERY strategic here. Qrow tells her not to get closer… so she doesn’t, at least not at first. She gains high ground to use her gun and the only reason she gets closer is because her aim can’t keep up with their speed. Ruby is a Huntress - by necessity now if nothing else - and she obeyed her more experienced teammate’s orders, though when those orders proved to not be enough, she made the decision to take further action. 

“This is my fight too!” It IS. Thank you, Ruby. She was just informed that she has some sort of rare, unfathomable power… without anyone really explaining to her what that means. She knows now that she has an important role to play in this war. She knows some queen named Salem is after her in-particular. Hell, she went to a school (again, two years early) specifically designed to teach her to fight. Ruby reminds me of Harry Potter in that she’s getting mixed signals right and left. Fight, they say, but also stay safe. Do your part, but wait until some perfect, magical moment… but no, we won’t tell you when that is. It doesn’t help that, also like Harry, the adults in her life are torn between loving her as a child (Qrow) and needing her to be a weapon (Ozpin). They can’t expect Ruby to play both roles. 

Most importantly, she just watched two close friends die. For Penny and Pyrrha both Ruby couldn’t get there in time. She was so close to them and she still couldn’t get there. Now her uncle, like them, is literally right in front of her, potentially losing this fight (he did lose his weapon, was pulled down into the house, etc.) and people expect Ruby to just watch again? She can’t. She literally can’t. Even Ren (our logical one) held Jaune back when he tried to stop Ruby. He gets that she can’t stand on the sidelines. She couldn’t before and she sure as hell can’t now. 

There’s even more I can say: like the fact that Ruby and Qrow were fighting so well in tandem - Qrow blocking Tyrion’s strikes at Ruby doesn’t make her a hinderance. As we’ve seen, protecting your teammates is incredibly common and it makes sense that they would fight well/potentially better as a team since Qrow was the one who trained her. Or the fact that the distraction wasn’t Ruby’s fault at all, an accident - if anything Qrow was the one who de-stabilized the house by baiting Tyrion onto the rotten parts of the roof. The fact that fighting together is what allowed them beat Tyrion, and it’s amazing that after everything mentioned in point 5, Ruby was able to keep her cool after seeing Qrow injured and still get a critical strike in at Tyrion. That takes a huge amount of control in battle. It takes maturity. 

For me this fight was pretty damn perfect, a way of showing us Ruby’s personality and her growth. I get that the fandom adores Qrow (god knows I do too), but reducing that fight to “omg Ruby got him injured” really takes away from the incredible amount of detail Rooster Teeth has given us. 

But yeah. That’s my piece. Happy holidays! ;)
