Honestly, I'd be fine with the lesbian thing if both Charlie and Vaggie had ANY form of fuckin' chemistry. Seriously, in the pilot those two had more chemistry than in the main series, which is just how do you even pull it off?
As offputting as some elements of this design are it's infinitely more TV based in a way I gotta somewhat appreciate. Guy looks like a knockoff/jojo fan character almost that'd have some sorta TV power. He's got some 80s looking scifi getup, His wristbands are TV remotes, he's got a DVR belt, his entire center torso and legs got that sparkly shit that's supposed to evoke TV static. You can SEE the how and why of how this dude's tied to TV in ways beyond "ah yeah just give him a tv head I guess".
Vaggie's actress has the same problem as Amara's actress in the original Sailor Moon dub. She's trying so hard to sound deep and masculine that she has almost no room in her vocal range to really emote. I don't know why the ADR director didn't let her just speak normally.
I am sure that this random YTber prog has many great things to say in a timely manner--
Sooo when you get right down to it fan works and fan/non cannon material tends to be better than what the actual braindead fagolas behind this crap cook up? Or in other words...
It's funny how they have more chemistry with each other when they were written to be friends in the pilot instead of girlfriends in the actual show. Probably because both supported each other and took the other's advice. Pilot Charlie was planning not to sing on air like Pilot Vaggie recommended; she only did that as a last resort attempt because the people weren't listening to her anyway. Show Charlie would never.
Then she had Carmilla use those two lazy examples as her excuse for having known Vaggie was an angel all along.
Even in the pilot she threw down against Katie Killjoy.
I wouldn't care that Charlie and Vaggie are a thing if the show at all put effort into making Vaggie at all interesting, on paper she's got extremely strong potential, with a secret backstory that could be used to cause massive conflict with the entirety of the cast when it's inevitably revealed that would directly lead to multi-episode long arc playing out, but all that potential was completely thrown into the trash and it's instead shown that the only character to remotely give a single damn is Charlie, and it's not even because she killed thousands of her people.
Don't mean to respond to myself but I just realized Vaggie's other arm is missing. It's amazing how I keep finding more and more errors in this show.
How is she even holding her? It looks like her hand are up her skirt.
She's trumping it
The ending was the funniest part not going to lie. Everything else was just...meh.
Give Lyle Rath the credit, not Viv. He wrote this short. Explains the ending too.
Zach has been in the show. With Mammons first appearance he was background noise of the crowd screaming and when Ozzie tells the people he loves Fizz. You can hear Zach audibly say"I knew it!"
Kinda seen the twist coming, but did get a chuckle out of it.
Yeah hopefully he gets something more substantial though than just a background role.
