>introduce conventionally attractive female character to show>fans latch onto her and ship with mains for obvious reasons>show declares they're being junked for being an obstacle to the main relationship>fans flip out and drop the showThose who forget history...
>>152585732So basically, you're telling me that Jax and Pomni are going to break up somewhere after the finale and Jax is gonna end up married to some other girl for good while Pomni remains the queen of cucks?Who's the Janna here?
>>152585999Zooble.
>>152585732Why exactly is this a problem?
>>152586102Because I want my faves to get more screentime.
>>152585732The issue wasn't Jackie being shafted off the show per se, it was just that by Season 3 and 4 people had realized that Marco and Star were better off being paired with other people.
>>152586157I still remember when they randomly had Marco date Kelly out of the blue, be with her for a few episodes, then break up OFF-SCREENWhat the hell was the purpose of that?
>>152585732>show declares they're being junked for being an obstacle to the main relationshipIs there any particular reason there is an inordinate amount of schizos making shit up about TADC? Between this and the whole "Goose had a meltdown and isn't working on the show anymore!" thing, it feels like people are intentionally trying to manufacture drama because they have nothing else to talk about.
>>152586215Not OP, but it's pretty obvious that Ragatha is getting shafted for the less conventional characters like Zooble and Pomni. She's been robbed of character development these last few episodes.
>>152586227>ZoobleThey've also done nothing except be angry and restate obvious information to the audience.
>>152586157I wanted Star to prove she deserved Marco more than Jackie did. I didn't want the show to decide she was an insurmountable obstacle that had to be removed from the show in order for the main pairing to happen.
>>152586015>Janna is a trannyClose enough she had big gipsy vibes after all
>>152586579This is probably the worst part of the whole svtfoe fiasco, watching it at the time, 2015-17, was nice and it fucking sucked that they ruined it all just because Daron was having flashbacks to her life.I could seriously go over th details, but I think most of us know how terrible it was that they forced Marco to be with Star when it was damn obvious he didn't feel any romantic love for her and how massive his love for Jackie was, worst of all, it ended up being mutual, Jackie did have interest in him and all for nothing, fucking Cuntugno ruining it all!
>>152586887Marco and Jackie had quite a nice, wholesome and coherent ship development, and now I'm really curious on what exactly makes Ragatha similar to Jackie... If any TADCfags can give me some explanation, I'd be happy to read, after all I'm gonna be on a small trip and will have some free time.
>>152586918There's no romance in TADC so it's not really similarBUT, Ragatha was presented as a deuteragonist alongside Jax on the pilot, only to be slowly pushed to the side of supporting characters (now fully confirmed by the creator themselves that Jax and Pomni are the two main characters) in favor of the main storyline as the episodes went on. Plus, her whole arc about wanting to communicate better with Pomni was resolved off-screen (I guess for SVTFOE it's similar to Marco and Kelly breaking up off-screen). I don't think it screwed the whole thing up as I like the direction the main storyline in TADC is going, but Ragatha's arc was handled very poorly and lazily.
>>152586887>they ruined it all just because Daron was having flashbacks to her life.Don't act retarded.
>>152585732The fact that someone else connected the dots when I was thinking this for a while is crazy
>>152585732Are these situations really similar?Jackie was always a plot device. Ragatha, despite not being a protagonist, is an actual character.
THAT'S WHY JACKIEANON BECAME A RAGATHAFAG IN THE LAST MS. /CO/if you are unhealthily attached to one you're very likely to be unhealthily attached to the other
>>152587831I'm referring to the spergouts and the disappointment being similar.
>>152587009I see, that makes more sense, as I said, I only watched one episode and didn't really like it that much, some scenes were cool but in general not my thing. >>152587066What do you mean?
these 2 are nothing alike
>Ragatha>conventionally attractiveshe's a fucking RAGDOLL
>>152586887I was there anon, when the strength of /svg/ failed. I was there when the Jarco breakup episode premiered. There were people like that Aval0nX /co/per cheering on Jarco's downfall and heralding in the era of Starco and what we would now know as the ruinous seasons 3 and 4. The warning signs were already showing (Battle for Mewni was pretty forgettable outside of the final act), but that breakup episode was where I could sense the fandom turning on the show. I don't know if we'll ever get the real answer. There are some like in this thread who believe Jackie and Brittany were "revengefic" characters based on real people meant to be humiliated but this is also rooted in fandom memes. We also have Cuntuggo to blame for injecting her ideas into the show and browbeating Daron. I also think there was some element of executive pressure.
>>152585732I find relationship drama in general extremely tedious.
>>152585732Try as hard as you want. TADC cannot be stopped. TADC is the show of this generation.
>>152589052but Ragatha will be forgotten while FunnyBunny will be celebrated indefinitely just like Starco
>>152585732I only watched the first Abstract Dismal Circuits because all the other ones made me lose interest in the first couple minutes.
>>152588928>cuntuggoCan you please not be misogynistic
>>152588984Relationship drama is one of the things I mainly look for in anime.
>>152588177Not gonna lie, I've gooned at the thought of how she must have felt being cucked by her bestie
>>152589251ItIsBruno! I can't believe this joke became true.
jackie is 14ragatha is 30what man would like them both
>>152590708hate to break it to you anon, but the Starco/Jarco shit was almost 10 years ago. people could have watched as teenagers, then watch TADC in their 20s, and have non-weird crushes on both characters
>>152589052Lizzie and Sean are the only VAs IRL who aren't fat
>>152591232So?
>>152589052Nah, with its limited run it's only going to serve as steam for Glitch's upcoming properties, not to say they won't parade it out for the odd anniversary.>>152589171If the next two episodes don't tank it.>>152591232Sean looks sort of skinny fat, Lizzie worked to get to where she is and I respect her for that.
>>152591349Kinda disingenuous to draw them being skinny while dressing them up as the VAs, especially Ashley who's a whale
Since this thread is about the two of them, any Ragatha or Jackie requests? Just one and just them
>>152591232How is Sonicmega not fat? He's a living grease stain according to Street Fighter Chode.
>>152591878this pose and clothing with either of them (i'll let you pick)
>>152591878Jackie dressed as Ragatha. Button eyepatch drawn in whatever form you prefer, just make it clear it's a costume.
Marco succesfully courting Jackie was the best piece of long-form storytelling in the show.
>>152586186It just screams that something happened in the writers room. Or didn't happen
Are there any shows where the ship /co/ wants ends up winning?
>>152592043uhhh Dragon Prince (maybe)
>>152585732>introduce conventionally attractive female character to showPic not related?
>>152588177it's not illegal to jerk off to pics of 40yo women when they were 16.
>>152592078Doesn't count because the show ruined it.Name me a show that never fucking ruined anything. I want the Perfect Anime That Never Makes Any Mistakes because nothing else is capable of putting the voices in my head at ease.
Heckapoo was robbed.
>>152585732we NEED to bring back insane asylums
>>152591878Ragatha dressed as Jackie
>>152592043Don't most of the anons in /tadc/ want funnybunny
>>152592418Then where's all the good porn for it
>>152592115Bait and kysYou should off yourself for such shitty bait anyway
>>152587854I’m excited for the upcoming ms /co/
>>152592782Reminder to tourists like you, things that hurt your feelings aren't bait and if the internet is too stressful, you don't belong here (and never did).
>>152592914Dumb frogposter
>>152592914Wise frogposter
>>152592880except Ragatha is ineligible this year. Pomni can come back but idk if jackieanon will stan heror maybe evil ragatha will somehow qualifyor maybe...jackie actually returns
>>152588928>I was there when the Jarco breakup episode premiered.Wild times, I still remember how Raicofag went completely schizo and started shipping himself with Jackie. And Hammerfag still copes in almost every Star thread.
>>152586887I think the worst thing about the breakup is that Starco itself wasn't very good. You could pair up Marco with anyone else and it would be a marginally better ship by default. Starco's biggest backbone was that it was the female x male lead pair, but Marco had more chemistry with other characters like Janna, Hekapoo, and even motherfucking Tom who was Star boyfriend at the time. Even his short fwb relationship with Kelly was kind of cute. I don't know if it's a problem with Star specifically, because I thought about who you could ship with her and besides my dick I am out of answers
>>152587009>was resolved off-screenoof
>>152594350there's still 2 episodes left
>>152594169I feel like Star as a character is flawed because many of the bad writing decisions of the later seasons happened around her. If you could magically remove Season 1 Star and make her her own separate entity, or hell even just use Season 2 Star, I feel like people’s opinion of her would go up by a lot.
>152585732I means, same thing happened even earlier with Avatar and Adventure Time, western animation is infamous for poorly written romance, cannot reall
>>152585732Is Princess Lu suppose to be at the same magnitude as her final love interest of the series in comparison to some random skater dyke who showed up out of nowhere and swept Jackie off her feet?That was how it went at the end of that series.
>>152585732Shipperfags are annoying. Dyke shipperfags are even more annoying.
>>152586215First time seeing how a fandom works?
>>152595792>western animationAnime isn't any better. Nothing in the world is capable of good romance that satisfies 4chan.
>>152586135Your taste is the problem here
>>152596875>Dude just stop liking the showFuck you.
>>152587009>BUT, Ragatha was presented as a deuteragonist alongside Jax on the pilotNo, All Ragatha did was be absent for most of the pilot.People should accept that Jax was the most important character after Pomni. He and Pomni act while the others just react.>Pilot.Jax drives the entire plot. He has the key to Kaufmo's room, which starts plot A and pushes Kinger and Gangle into plot B.>Episode 1.Jax throws Pomni into the other truck, which again starts plot A, and he also actively participates in plot B.>Episode 2.Jax again starts plot A by throwing Pomni and Kinger into danger. Plot B doesn't matter because he doesn't participate, and nothing interesting happens.>Episode 3.Pomni barely does anything. The most interesting parts of the episode are Jax's.>Episode 4.Jax steals the show again and opens the door to many theories.>Episode 5.Jax and Pomni steal the entire episode.>Episode 6.Again, the most interesting part is Jax, and he steals the show.
>>152596910But Ragatha is a pretty girl.
>>152596871I'd argue that manga is even worse because they take "the chase is always better" to the extreme, it gets frustrating to have to wait until Chapter 400 for the main characters to hold hands at the very least
>>152597108At least when they end you'll know there's eventually a point where shit actually did happen.What chapter of Kaguya-sama is it where the two mains become an official couple? I don't mean "which chapter is the meme scene where Rean has sex with the whole cast", I mean which chapter is it where Shirogane and Kaguya kiss.
>>152596910>episode 3>the most interesting parts of the episode are Jax'slmao
>>152588928>>152593902God that was when I started using 4chan as my primary website. I was even a Star Drawfag on my shitty art tablet, using Fire Alpaca. Found the old hard drive with my pictures, too. Good times.
>>152585732I feel like Jackie fans have almost more right to be mad because SVTFOE had pretty much no plan for her after the breakup and barely tried throwing them a bone with only a few episodes remaining. At least Ragatha was a prominent part of the show since the beginning and will likely remain a part of it until the end.
>>152597750It helps that TADC only uses a small cast and characters introduced are only for that episode, like Gummygoo or the Princess. Star vs. just has so many characters and so many new people who came in that the older characters, like Britney or Hope of Jackie or Ferguson, were just pushed away.
