    This is far from the first time Nickelodeon has referenced the Odyssey.

  • @flyte707

    The story is mostly based on dai no daibouken. The "sakura" in that manga has one major fight so unfortunately he didn't expand on a character he perceived as disliked. There's also a love triangle which explains why so much of hinata and sakura's role was in the same vein. Keep in mind sakura was a copy of kishimoto's wife as well so that may also influence how she's being written. I genuinely believe kishi saw that girls didn't like sakura and basically flushed his story because he was actually going for naruto and sakura (as he said in one interview) and he didn't feel motivated to keep doing naruto after ignoring all the buildup he made. It's why in basically all the manga he's done and his twin brother has done it's basically all variations of the sakura and naruto pair. Even the scene when sakura is performing cpr for naruto probably has roots in the matrix movies which were according to kishimoto some of his favorites

    You might be right. Your analysis made me think. I think I need to watch it again in a few weeks and see if my opinion changes. Based on my first go round, I didn't like the beginning of the movie, but as it went along, I liked it more and more. In broad terms, it felt like someone who had never experienced much love before and didn't know how to give love to others needed to learn how important love is to humanity. Scrooge seemed like someone who feared the vulnerability love requires. It seemed like he was afraid of love and kept people at a distance. The redemption revealed how important love is to humanity and he accepts the vulnerability that comes with that.

    Regarding your point about how it was never put into question if what he did was the right thing and that he could've considered other choices than genocide, he himself shows deep regret when he was reanimated. He first tells Naruto that Itachi failed (failed his plan to turn Sasuke into a hero) because he tried to do everything by himself. And when he gives Sasuke his last words, he expresses regret about his choice to kill his entire clan. He says something along the lines of "had I talked with you about it, you might have been able to change Father". In the end, he does seem to believe that he was genuinely wrong for what he did, especially when he says to Sasuke "you don't ever have to forgive me" because he believes that what he did was unforgivable.

    While I agree there is a level of misogyny in the Naruto community regarding Sakura and as a character she certainly isn't the best. You have to remember Sakura isn't an exceptional person in Naruto nor was she ever supposed to be. Sakura's character arc is apparent and I think very well made its biggest issue being as a character Sakura grows the slowest and her main character arc ends in the very beginning of Shippuden. Sakura is unfortunately an example of a Side Character who was portrayed as having supposed to be a main character not just in the anime. And it's absolutely clear Kishimoto struggled to write her character and this issue was only exacerbated by the anime's writing. Though especially in early Naruto you have to remember unlike Sasuke, Sakura is more like Naruto in her naivete to the Shinobi world. You also have to remember she is a 13 year old kid, her and Ino having a crush on the "cool" guy is entirely normal for girls that age its no different from girls being obsessed with a boy band. She however wasn't lucky enough to receive a jutsu from a forbidden scroll so in that first arc when they are attacked she doesn't have anything beyond what the academy taught her. With the end of the Wave arc she has learned that just cause she had done all the schoolwork didn't mean she was ready to be a soldier and that being a soldier isn't rainbow and sunshine. However despite this she is unable to fully recognize her own weakness as Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi all assure her that she is strong enough as is. This is proven untrue when during the Chunin Exams the other Konoha Genin save Team 7 from the Sound Team. She then has her little fight with Ino (which really falls flat, which I think would've worked a bit better if Kishimoto laid groundwork for this rivalry earlier than he did). Sakura then is kinda useless for the rest of Part 1 because everything that happens a bit to quickly for her to make any real progress and even then she is unsure how she wants to progress. Tsunade is the person who ultimately opens the door for Sakura to grow stronger, leading into the culmination of her character arc in Part 1 being able to defeat an Akatsuki member (something Naruto can't do). Her entire second character arc we follow till the end is even slower than part 1 and the only arcs its relevant in is Tenchi Bridge, 5 Kage, and the end of War Arc where she believing her forcing Naruto to promise to bring Sasuke was holding Naruto back leading to her actions in 5 Kage (as poorly executed as that was). She also becomes insecure about being able to stand by Naruto. In the end though like Kakashi her role in Team 7 isn't to stand by Naruto and Sasuke anymore, its to offer the support and keep them moving forward.

  • @sm00thsubz81

    Yeah, some good points. There is prejudice against mutants in Marvel universe correct, but it is really not fair saying it is like racism. There is genuine danger these people possess, and it is only natural that humans would have trouble accepting them. I mean if someone says they don't want to live next to a person that has a danger of blowing the whole neighborhood up, are they bigots, or thinking about safety? How far can they go to minimize this risk? Take away all mutants' powers just for some dangerous ones, or only the risky ones? Besides it is funny because I think most people that supports X-Men in comics probably will tend to side with taking away gun rights from people. Well some people pose no risk wielding guns, but you want to take away everyones' guns due to crazed people. Not taking a side in these discussions (not even living in US), but they are good food for thought. That's why I personally love the X-Men stories, they pose very tricky situations regardless of what the writers intented as allegories.

  • @Sokolva
    @Sokolva 3 місяці тому

    Thank you for going into detail on why it’s not her power level that’s the issue with her character, which in turn unbalances the story, but the lack of backstory, motivation, and important character growth and character beats that define her. The few great character moments she has are overshadowed by the rest of them being vapid, weak writing that takes away from her character as written rather than reinforcing it. She is a damsel in distress when she needs to be to let the men look cool, and suddenly a badass when she needs to heal a key character or chip in on a fight. Meanwhile she is also the source of the convenient romance plot line for both Naruto and Sasuke, when she has never liked Naruto more than platonically (which I actually like, and I like that Naruto realized he didn’t click with her personality well romantically and deepened his friendship with her rather than pushing romantically). But all of her scenes with Sasuke render her weak and traumatized by the end, hanging on to any little scrap of mercy or love he could give her, and it’s a truly tragic romantic end that the story CANT acknowledge is traumatic and tragic becsuse it wants a happy ending for all the characters. Sakuras happy ending is attaching herself to an abusive man who never liked her, because she is trying to stabilize him and repair the damage done to herself as well probably. Not a good ending at all. Wish they could have all just been friends and worked on that first.

I don't think Elizabeth is a jerk - Mr Bennett? Kinda. Also Lydia is rude to Mary too. Austen actually had Mary repeat her aunt Philips's past in marrying the man who inherited her uncle and maternal grandfather's solicitor firm (its revealed in letters she wrote to her family)but i think she would have ok living with the Collinses. She would have got with Mr Collins and Charlotte would have not treated her badly. As another plain daughter Charlotte could relate to Mary on some level.

Also remember that time when she made fun of Naruto being an orphan to saskue, an orphan. Also it’s weird tome how much she loves saskue . Saskue was never realy there for her,sakura never cared about her. But Naruto did. But no, sakura just loves saskue even though he tried too kill her mutiple times.

    I think the itachi story was a clunky one, and to me most people liked him because of the mystery behind his person, the interesting abilities he had and how he used them, even by the end i could never truly say i understood the character. i remember a discussion that was popular in the community some months back about what could have happened if itachi sided with his clan. i call it the konoha royale, a konoha vs uchiha battle, now i believe konoha would most definitely win but they would not come out unscathed, and considering in a few years orichimaru and the sand would attack and much later pain would attack, this civil war would have doomed konoha to its destruction, especially if the other villages take notice. add to the fact that months prior someone suspected to be from the uchiha clan had caused the 9 tails rampage, the tensions where inevitably high. ( note: how tobi kept this information from sasuke when he told him about itachi. ) there is no need for moral justification of genocide, but that evil action definitely saved konoha. but i do wander if there was a way to resolve the situation peacefully. 1:20 i remember danzo saying something about using sasuke's sharingan to control the 9 tails in naruto, im sure he explored options. as for the rest of konoha, how many civilians would be willing to let their children play with child who had a 9tails inside him, like that thing didnt kill of some of their family and friends years back, that wound would still be fresh. 1:30 i dont see how that is a retcon, the pain and suffering the clans have caused to each other is why they hate each other, i dont see how the existence of the so called magically evil blood takes away from story. that blood is the source of power behind both clans, it doesn't excuse their actions to one another. the only characters affected by some form of predestination are the actual reincarnations themselves hashirama and madara. in the end the 2 clans where able to make peace between themselves though for a short while. Is Sasuke ever stated to forgive Itachi ? cause he doesn't need to forgive him to want to change the system as a whole, if that's where you get the idea from. the only people that saw praise itachi as a shinobi as some the most questionable ones themselves, tobirama, danzo and tobi. 7:09 i don't think that movie is trying to explore anything related to the uchiha masacre. i dont know about the other stories you are referring to here. i do very much like that your suggestion, considers what kishimoto might have been trying to achieve with the character rather than a full deviation that would impact a lot of the other aspects of the story. Excellent Video.

    This is a very complicated topic and I don't think there's ever gonna be a purely right or wrong point if the X-Men comics (and the Marvel verse at large) is a failed or successful case study of Prejudice/Bigotry. As, imo anyways, to claim it's a total failure would be to discredit the stories that do a good job at the very least about talking about these topics and those who it may have helped who are part of a marginalized group. But to claim its a total success would be to ignore its genuine insensitive at best handling of certain topics (for example Magneto being compared to Malcom X and yeah Kitty Pryde dropping racial slurs casually, etc). It's also important to note that this is gonna differ depending on the writers and the different verses the X-Men exist in as there are differences between say the 616 verse to say the Ultimate world's version of the X-Men or the 90s show to the X-Men Fox movies. I agree with almost all your points with the only one I sorta disagree with is maybe your critique of the term Mutie in X-Men media. Mainly because we can only comment how that word sounds and is in our world and we don't have 1 to 1 mutant equivalents in irl. If we did however, it'd probably be a different story. I think bottom line I'd say the creation of the X-Men stories were good intentions with insensitive outcomes if that makes any sense . It's also worth noting that some stories are products of their time with no proper greater understanding of struggles of groups at the time besides the surface level (but of course that doesn't exempt them from criticism). And imo, I don't think it's ever gonna have a proper answer as to if the X-Men was a failure or success with it's commentary. The only commentary I can maybe think 95% works for the X-Men stories is more of a straight up political sense. The X-Men being more Democratic, The Brotherhood more militant revolutionaries and the Human Government being more Authoritarian Conservative. Even then that allegory has its faults. I say all this as a Bi, not so die hard Superhero fan as I used to be but still like characters like Wolverine, Gambit, etc

    This was a very good video. However, I disagree. There is plenty of evidence in Ancient Greece that Andromeda was white. Euripides describes Perseus mistaking her for a marble statue, bowls depicting her as white while having black servants, and more. You also need to note that Aethiopia was presented in a good light costantly in Greek Mythology. The first time we hear of her being black is from Ovid, who was a Roman poet. I think there's a point where it isn't "whitewashing" but the original and established depiction. Also, I'm black myself, so don't call me racist. Great video, though, man. Have a nice day:)

      @SirLofHearthaven I did not say that Aethiopia was presented in a negative light in Greek myths. I brought up the bowl that you mention, though I did not mention the marble statue quote, not because I was unaware of its existence, but because for one, not all marble statues made in Greece were made using white marble. Several marbles were shades of pink, yellow, and even black. But for two, these statues that were made on white marble are thought of as white today, but at the time were regularly painted with multiple colors, so I didn't see it as a point against or for either argument. Ovid may have been the first artist to talk at length about her darker skin color, and I bring him up to illustrate how this was perceived by other cultures that syncretized with Greek culture, but my point is more to say that the term Aethiopian itself references an individual having darker skin. The Ancient Greeks would know what the term Aethiops meant dark skin, and the princess of Aethiopia would only logically be Aethiopian herself. But I haven't called anybody racist here for disagreeing with me. I see the pottery depicting her with lighter skin than her servants as explained by colorism common across the Mediterranean to depict the royals, who did not work in the sun, as lighter than the working class, but I do not expect everybody to agree with me, and that is what I would consider the best counterargument to the claim that Andromeda has been whitewashed. I respect your comment and don't mind some pushback. Thanks for watching.

      @@mysmallnoman You used quotations over words I never said to imply I was requesting for content to be censored, when I was criticizing something. Further, it is not prudish to be against sexual harassment. If I was voicing distaste for a portrayal of consensual sexual activity between adults, sure, then I would be a prude, but that is not what I criticizing. If my distaste in jokes about sexually harassing people offends you that much, though, you can always watch other videos instead of making up reasons to dismiss me.
