Do you think the Mighty Nein will forbid any new members because they’re too far into the nine schtick and can’t back down now.

Like it’s mostly clear that the nine nein are now Beau, Yasha, Jester, Veth, Fjord, Caleb, Caduceus, Essek, and Molly. Fan artists can finally draw three squares of three and have it look cool. But what happens if they pick up a new member?

Bam. Now there’s ten. How will they justify the name they meta gamed up on a whim that has become a centralized motif of the campaign now?

I just think it would be funny if shenanigans ensued.

Listen I’m not fully caught up on the manga or anime, but the Endeavor redemption leaves a really bad taste in my mouth so far. Especially because it’s barely brought up while focusing on his relationship with his kids that he BOUGHT HIS WIFE.

Also I feel like the people who I’ve seen talk about online end up excusing his behavior because of in world reasons (ex: he’s the number one hero so he can’t be held accountable) when they don’t recognize that it’s being written by a person, and the person wrote it that way for a reason.

Like when you’re writing a story about abuse and you focus more on how the abusers feel about their actions than how the victims do…that seems odd.

I’m not even halfway through Critical Role Campaign 2, and already a new story is starting. I’ve grown incredibly attached to these characters already, and their pirate arc has been a fun mess of so many emotions. What better way to deal with that than sea shanties? 

(As I said, I’m on episode 45, so please don’t comment/tag with spoilers for the sake of myself and others.)

Taliesin’s character is very gender, as always, but can we also appreciate that he really said, “Try to kill my character this campaign, Matt, I dare you.”
