I'm sorry kim dokja π
yoohankim superhero au where yjh and hsy are mortal enemies (hsy is the villain obv) and dokja is a regular civilian.
theyβre all dating but dokja is the only one who knows their identities
recommending orv to people who donβt like isekai is so hard bc i have to be like no trust me it gets philosophical and such and theyβll be like in what way. and i have to say well thatβs a spoiler. so theyβll be like so when does it happen. and i have to say in the last 50ish chapters. but itβs especially great and stands out in a reread. and theyβll be like βso you want me to read 2.6 million words?β and i have to be like well. yes.
Kim Dokja pissing off his companions is literally the most hilarious shit ever lmaoooo
Orv is suchhh a good fandom for fan analysis and meta and theories like what we do here on tumblr, because it IS that deep and you ARE meant to be reading into it, unlike a lot of other writers of media with big fandoms who seem to actively despise their fans and people analysing their work. I'm talking about bbc sherlock and supernatural here mainly, not to name names. Both of those have themes and motifs that you could read into, and many do, but it feels like you are stubbornly fighting against the writers to enjoy their work, rather than working with them to explore it to it's fullest.
But not orv. Here they even acknowledge the ridiculous nature of what they are trying to do with orv, and the critisisms a skeptic might have.
and here is what Sing Shong responds with through Han Sooyoung, but speaking directly to YOU.
You're MEANT to be reading into it!!! even IF the authors didn't intend something, it doesn't matter, because death of the author!!!!
So when you're looking at orv through the lense of freudian psychoanalysis or whatever you're DOING IT RIGHT! Sing Shong respect and allow this, and that's such a unique thing I've never gotten from another fandom before.
dokja and uriel r the types of people who thirst over their blorbos but wouldnβt dare date them because nothing should get in the way of their OTP
grrr thinking about how one of the reasons yjh thought sp to be kdj from the future was because sp 'felt animosity toward kdj' and yjh expects kdj from the future to hate on himself from the past
at the same time this is why he never thought it would be himself who is sp's true identity because he can't possibly harm kdj. not to quote lsk but "this man (who kidnapped my son) looks like yjh, so my child will be fine."
After years of yuri content, two boys kissing is what gets the channel more attention, so personally if I was Vivinos I'd tweet that Ivan and Till are actually two butch lesbians and then turn off my phone
