can you love your everything too, for me?
I wanna do this just bc I've watched AAI and AAI2
Kay : Agent Lang.
La : . . It's 2 am here, Kay.
K : Mr. Edgeworth is abducted again. Mind coming here–
La : Not fucking again.
One of my main problems with Honey I'm Home and its lore is: We get these gorgeous designs, many of them diverse and interesting and fun to look at... and then they get sidelined by both fans and Ghost themself for yet another edgy white boy. I'm not saying that any of Ghost's stories are bad just because they have white protagonists, but it just seems so frequent that they direct the most attention to their white characters and make them either protagonists or the 'Cool Bad Guys'- (1/2)
That’s an interesting take, anon! I hate HIH for different reasons than yours, but hearing your perspective on it was definitely something I hadn’t considered about the lore and characters
And yeah I’m with you on the whole diversity thing. It’s like, take a look at all of GHOST’s characters pre-HIH:
(And this isn’t even counting the mascots for their other songs)
Then there’s the Honey I’m Home cast:
And boy, now you’ve got me wondering how many fans of HIH saw this cast of characters and thought, “Wow! A lot of POC characters in one of GHOST’s new stories, finally!” only for literally most of the attention to be drawn to Norman and Charon
Just... wow. That’s gotta suck. I’m sorry to hear that you feel left out because of that, anon.
Do you guys ever think about this panel. Do you think about how in this moment he realizes he’s about to be killed by the demon and he is SMILING!!!!!!! He’s about to fulfill his one remaining desire, the one he hasn’t even admitted to himself, and it’s all finally going to be over.
Because I’m thinking about it a lot, in fact I actually cannot stop thinking about it
Bonus in case thinking about it made you depressed:
Fuck man I knew aai 1-4 had MVK being dismissive and abusive to the siblings but fuck man.
Actively saying that attending his 13 year old daughters courtroom debut isn't a priority for him
Then this exchange which is prompted by nothing beyond Miles asking to do his job even using the Von Karma framing of finding perfection only for Manfred to just completely shut him down and verbally abuse him
Miles then being completely unable to respond in shame. Even though this is God damn Bratworth were talking about and in the last scene he was saying this
And then Fran coming in to desperately try and deflect her father ire to protect him
Then when she finally does convince him to let them investigate he says this
Basically actively admitting to anyone with the context we have now that he's only making Miles a procecutor to sully Gregory's legacy.
Then Miles thanking her because he saw her defelcting Manfreds abuse for him.
Just absolutely heart breaking. It really shows the dynamic at play here perfectly. He doesn't care about Franziska. He is not putting this energy into her career and only putting it into Miles' because he is using it as an avenue to abuse and control him and further enact his revenge on Gregory. And she doesn't understand why. She doesn't get why Miles gets this attention and she doesn't. But she already knows that she has to deflect his attention to protect Miles. And Miles doesn't understand how he's doing everything he can to do the right thing but is still his target. Its such a genuinely interesting dynamic where both of them think the other is the favourite. Miles thinks it Fran because he's not constantly verbally abusing her and Fran thinks it's Miles because he actually bothers to give him the time of day and is properly mentoring him. She's 13 man. She's about to become a prosecutor at 13 and he still doesn't care about her in the slightest.
Ugh Von Karma siblings, my heart
there's this lad who was the captain of my football team for seven seasons back in the day (Gordon Strachan) and he is the most sardonic oul get who comes out with the FUNNIEST quotes and I ALWAYS think about Mithrun as a diplomat. and listen I know Mithrun wasn't invited to be a diplomat bc he's "not that friendly" but I'm just saying. it would be so feckin funny. he's sitting there deadpan while Kabru is literally crying. should I make more of these
