Can you imagine that this huge space we see here is Arcadia Oaks, or some other town?
Like-- let's assume that below is Arcadia Oaks High's soccer field, which we've already seen. We know that the high school was already destroyed to bits and would need some time to rebuild (maybe a year? I know that construction nowadays are pretty fast). Even if it's not, that's some mass destruction happening somewhere else.
But also what if Nari dies and the place that was originally burned and practically turned to ruin came back to life where she died; and that's why the gang looks so sad. Pls don't kill Nari, writers
One thing I am grateful for about the ToA Fandom is that they don't sexualize the kids, or tolerate it for that matter.
Like on TikTok or any other social media, it's so uncomfortable to see people constantly apply adult-themes (particularly sexual) to 14-16 year olds; such as bondage references, dom/sub stuff, and just other weird shitz. This is most prevalent in the mlb fandom, where lot of them defend it by saying that they're also minors and that the characters aren't real-- as if that makes it any better.
Del Toro/Mchale adapting Pleasure Island as a Fascist Youth Camp where the boys are forced to train and play war games, turning them from innocent boys into mindless soldiers (jackasses, if you will) is a masterstroke- I think seeing the kids and Pinocchio run around with fake guns and grenades, knowing that something bad was going to happen to those kids was more stress inducing than the original scene in the 1940 version.
anyways, japanese imperialism is not a thing of the past and still exists today. japanese propaganda is in the little things, and to end it you have to recognize them. stop glorifying the rising sun flag. pay attention to how japanese media treats its korean characters as opposed to the white ones. be on your guard when anyone or anything implies that japan is in any way superior to other asian countries. above all, listen to and support any poc who has been affected by japanese imperialism.
