Okay so I’m absolutely loving Moominvalley (2019) it’s been amazing especially after playing Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley because I’m learning the lore as I go and it’s been absolute blast!! (I’m on episode 8 btw so preferably not a lot of spoilers) but here’s some of my thoughts and feelings if you wish to read!
You can definitely tell that Snufkin: Melody of Moominvalley was made with a lot of love and being able to connect peices from both media’s is such a treat and gives me a better appreciation for the show ^-^
I love how the hatterfattiers travel in odds probably to keep themselves from sparking off!
I loved Snufkin and Little My’s dynamic, it was chaotic but also pretty endearing at times (I want more of them playing music together, and just more screen time with them both. They perfectly represent my remaining brain cells)
At first I wasn’t a huge fan of Snorkmaiden and Moomintroll being together but they’ve really grown on me. Other than the fact that Moomintroll is kinda fumbling with how he treats her, it’s a little bit painful to watch. I kinda hope they work it out but my gut just has ✨the bad feelings✨
Little my is an absolute menace and it’s either for good reason or just to cause problems, I love the inner guessing game I have whenever she pops up on the screen!! She’s probably my favourite character.
I understand that Snufkin leaves Moominvalley during the winter but like where does he go?? Because my immediate thought was ‘oh he just goes into the unknown or something kinda similar probably, he’d fit in pretty great’ like yea probably but babes, that means every winter he lays down and is like “yep this looks like a pretty great spot to just decompress and decompose, anyway good night” and just hangs out there for 3-5 months.
Anyways TL;DR I don’t have anyone else to talk to about this new little brain rot of mine, so I’m gonna word vomit here! and thank you to anyone who took time to read this <3 and please let me know your thoughts and feelings on this show, or any fun facts!!
I had hazel for 5 minutes and I was ready to ride and die for them I SWEAR-
My friend got me to play monster roadtrip and my poor gay self--
This is the lucky clover cat. reblog this in 30 seconds & he will bring u good luck and fortune.
So I’ve finished Moominvalley season 2 (2019) and my god I loved it but it hurt me so much in return holy wow. Anyway if you’d like some of my thoughts about it feel free to keep reading ^-^
(fair warning it’s a lot longer than I thought it’d be)
Episode 2 the fire spirit got me so bad in my feelings and even funnier yet I could tell it would by not only the title and thumbnail but the second I heard the song by cavetown I literally was like ‘hm it sounds like something by cavetown…This should be fine’
oh how wrong I was because of how it ended with the little fire spirit sacrificing itself to save Moominvalley and how upset Snufkin was, he seemed to be pretty attached to the lil goober when the gang dropped it off.
So having his care and attempts to protect it, be basically for nothing would’ve been soul crushing for him.
Holywow I loved how the Hobgoblin and Sniff were just bouncing off eachother so well. Then the Hobgoblin giving Sniff ✨EMPATHY✨ my god that was amazing, especially with how Moominpapa and Little My were like “ew get away from me”
I love how the Groke is now just becoming a more casual part of the community especially with the trial episode, like don’t get me wrong they’re still uneasy with her presence but they still wanted to give her a fair trial and everything.
Ooooh no the ✨The bad feelings✨ I was having about Snorkmaiden and Moomintroll were riiiighttttt. Moomintroll seemed more angry about having to leave the valley (and Snufkin by association) than leaving Snorkmaiden to the point he was unintentionally hurting her. Twice. Technically thrice if you include the fact they broke up. But I’m glad that Moomintroll is beginning to learn that he’s gonna have to accept a couple of things about Snufkin, if he ever wants him to stay. But still kinda hurts a bit.
I loved that Moominpapa and Moominmama have character arcs that don’t involve getting divorced, it’s refreshing and sure they still fight and have moments being mad at eachother but at the end of the day they still love each other and honestly? I love them for that.
Ah Moominpapas midlife crisis, I hope that I can be able to just pack up and go when I hit mine. Sounds like the dream honestly and I wish I could be as creative as Moominmama, just painting the walls with no worries.
I also LOVED the sea shanties just 👌😩 it brings me so much joy because there was a good chunk of time where that’s all I’d listen too.
The last episode though also gave me a gut punch because of the fact Snufkin came back before he left for the winter, and that he just welcomes himself in because he knows that they wouldn’t mind him being there, regardless of if they are or not. I hate it here. Snufkin you found family fuck. And that everyone there played ‘The Moomin Family’ for the kid.
“Have you checked his bedroom yet?”
“Naturally c:”
of course you have you absolute loser I love you for that. Seeing him get so excited about possibly finding HIS letter, only to be disappointed was devastating too.
Oh but the puppet show, oh when I tell you I almost cried, It’s even sadder that Moomintroll (seemingly) isn’t going to back to Moominvalley. Also my heart dropped to my ass when they almost lit the fire with the ancestors inside, but Snufkin excitedly finding the note inside the fireplace? Put my heart right back in my throat
But more lightheartedly damn Snufkin has got some moves and seeing everyone close to the Moomin family looking back at their time and memories together fondly was so incredibly sweet.
Anyways TL;DR a super strong season that got me right in the feels every time, I’m so excited to be able to start the 3rd season soon!! But thank you so much for reading this! I hope you have a wonderful day, night or time and take care!!
Season 3 of Moominvalley (2019) Once again is banger after banger and has honestly become a show that I’ll definitely rewatch again!! (Especially since I now have someone to watch it with!!) P.S THIS IS PROBABLY GONNA BE A PART ONE BECAUSE IM ✨TIRED✨
To be honest I think Jack Rowan as the new voice of Moomintroll is honestly a pretty great choice, he sounds like he took time and grew into himself. With a nice hint of Moominpapa in his tonality (especially when being dramatic) but still is relatively soft spoken and mixes well with the rest of the cast.
God Episode 3 got me in the guts too, seriously what is it with this show and knowing just where to attack me. Little My’s struggle with feeling like one of the family, especially with her father figure is. Once again very relatable considering so when Moominpapa said he loved her, my heart warmed up so much because goddamn I wAnT tHaT…. And seeing the family growing closer together is always a delight!
Stinky going around saying ‘pinch, grab, take, steal’ over and over is so goofy and that Moominmama has/had a bad girl streak feels so appropriate for her. We love a badass, good mama.
I’m honestly shocked that Moomin didn’t immediately go to Snufkin when it came to taking toffle home p.s my partner literally was like
“ah there’s ya boyfriend” (he hasn’t fully watched the show he’s just watching with me now)
I was so hyped for the lonely mountain episode and honestly it was pretty darn great and fruity with just the right amount of pinning!!
“Your wetter than a fishes flannel”
Lil Ma’am w h a t. We lost our minds to that
Jesus Moomin found him so fast like I know Snufkin said where he was staying but like GODDMAN THERE WERE SO MANY MOUNTIANS. I also love how Snufkin immediately was like ‘alrighty let’s warm you up dear ^-^ ‘ and then immediately got overwhelmed. Once again completely understandable, especially since my partner had just moved in the week before we started watching it so we’re learning to co-exist and I’m so glad the Moomin parents were there to save the boys and the possible confession of Snufkin In which way? Who’s to say.
I’ve very much enjoyed this season and I’m super hype for what they have planned next!! I’ll probably post part two tomorrow sometime!! (Also how is this style of formatting?? Please let me know!!) but thank you very much for reading this!! Have a lovely day/night/time!!
I love my bf so much because I showed them a photo of Imogen and laudna and he took one good look at them and said.
“They look like high end monster high dolls”
And honestly? He’s absolutely right about that and now I kinda want them turned into dolls
Dude I’m so hype for this season you don’t understand IM GONNA BE SO POOR AND IM OKAY WITH IT
Ah but a rather (unfortunate) common occurrence with me and my boyfriend
cool thank you
Some more otgw head cannons if you please (Sorry it’s been a literal year for these bad boys)
For the first little while after getting home, Greg would be hesitant to sleep in his room without having several night lights on, so one day while Greg is out of the house. Wirt puts a bunch of those glow in the dark stars on the ceiling of Greg’s room, it’s safe to say the gesture was appreciated.
Sara would be a fan of baking little treats for her friends birthdays. Which is something Wirt absolutely adores about her and it’s a good excuse for them to spend time together while Greg ‘helps’
Greg likes to customise random items he owns, either by painting them or adding a little ✨something✨ to give them a little more character (for a long time it was just a crude caricature of Jason funderberker)
Wirt would probably collect taxidermy and give them names either related to poets or someone he meet in the unknown with one of his favourites being a Agrias beatifica viso he named Beatrice.
Wirt would often re-arrange his room because of his intrest of interor design which wouldn't be an issue by his parents, if he did it at a resonable time insted of the middle of the night, while quietly humming songs to himself during his bouts of insomnia
Sometimes the boys forget if certain things happened in or outside of the unknown and catch eachother slipping up
If either of them have a ‘life flashing before my eyes’ moment they’ll just look to the other and say
“Welp just saw the woodsman, that was lovely. I’m gonna go sit down now”
Since obviously our boy Snufkin loves to travel anywhere and everywhere, so my crossover loving ass likes to think that he’d eventually run into other characters from all my favourite medias! Like just imagine how wholesome it would be!!
Like imagine during his travels he comes across a tombstone and puts a coin on it to respect the deceased and as he goes to turn around and be on his way. He bumpsinto the grounds keeper, who just happens to be a pre-mighty nein caduceus clay, who’d be more than happy to have tea with him. And both of them exchanging tea recipes, even if Snufkin won’t have the means to make it.
can’t write anymore ironically or at least in a way that I can actually express, that isn’t just rambling but I promise you I’ve definitely imagined different scenarios and who he’d meet along the way but please tell me if you have any of your own!! I’d absolutely love to hear them!! But I hope you have a wonderful day/night/time
My boyfriend and I recently got a bird together (we now have 3 total) and two of them are named after lion king characters due to a family tradition, so ofc when we got our baby bird I tried to keep that tradition.
But obviously with me getting super back into Critical Role I gave only one name suggestion, now the tradition is out the window so say hi to Artagan or Arty
He is a cinnamon turquoise conure and he’s an absolute menace of a baby but we love the chaos. Also I named him that because he is the traveler (we had to drive 6 hours total to get him) and he’s got them orange eyebrows
