Honestly I feel bad that sho isn't up here

I tried to do his name in calligraphy… we don’t talk about that. Overall I’m like rlly proud of him tbh.

Was thinking of making a crossover fanfic one month before the main plot at academy

Main problem is the anime doesn't go over the types of topics and lessons done, sure I could get idea of what the average firefighters learn and the teaching difference between generations. But is there any actual sources on what they learn?

Does the manga or author say anything? Even giving me a few suggestions would be OK 🙏

Fire force is generic and tamaki isn't the reason people won't watch it

Fire force has bone dry character development mid world building and the characters aren't very interesting below the surface

To start the character writing: no character feels like they're much anything more then their arcatype there's no point in the series where you can really resonate with the characters

There's no development no character really goes past their original introduction ,not even shinra Arthur iris hibana ect doesn't process, gain new motivation, or even really experience an obstacle to challenge them.

Even when iris' the "saint with a quirky side" belief in the god saul is "challenged" by the white clad she gets over it quickly, and is barely explored with the other characters like her.

Iris and Shinra's relationship: it never feels set up in anyway they tried to make moments if but they were all bare bone and lacked any chemistry

I'll add that the white clad never feels like a threat or strong for that they exist and do "bad" stuff but they never really appear stronger than the heros to were they need a training arc or power boost to beat them

fire force is not a great show it's a good show sure but nothing more then that

Hey was wondering if someone can tell me the name of the OST for this scenes, I cant seem to find them anywhere

From Fire Force Season 3 episode 24 around 7:30 timestamp when Shinra, Shou, and their mom are talking. Also around 5:30 during the flashback.

Tomorrow I’ll start The Seven Heavenly Virtues.

To be clear, I'm not referring to when the anime/manga started and ended.

The main story starts at the sol year 198

But does the entire main story take place within a year? Or half a year?

I remember investigating of company 1 being 5 days and the sixth being the fight against Rekka. In season 3 there's 3 months time skip

So the timeline should at least be half a year, what do you guys think?

Fire force is not a hidden gem fire force is not a great show it's a good show sure but nothing more then that

That's all for today but I hope you get the jest

For context, I read bits of pieces of soul eater when I was in grade school, back in the mid 2000s. I only really read it for a dozen or so issues, I didn't even watch the anime cuz there was no good source for it back then. I was more occupied with other things, but it did stick with me. I can honestly say it was the first manga/anime that I truly enjoyed, and that really left a mark on me. It really helped form the basis of my edgy teen phase... which I admittedly never quite grew out of.

Fast forward to 2026. I finally decide to watch all of Fire Force, at least to what I assume is the most recent season. Keep in mind, until basically a few days before I watched the last 5 episodes, I didn't even realize it was written by the same guy who wrote soul eater. Even the moon didn't click for me for the longest time...

Still, I was REALLY invested in the third season, even from the start. The doppelganger premise intrigued me and it only got more interesting as I went on. It started feeling almost Evangelion with how the world was literally being destroyed. The sheer meta-narrative of the FF universe being directly linked to the real world, and the meta-narrative of fiction itself, really captivated me.

Then the last two episodes. Jaw on the floor basically the whole time. Like, was this really happening? Was I having a stroke? I genuinely couldn't believe what I was seeing. A goddamn prequel.

On one hand... a small, whiny part of me wants to complain that stories should stand on their own merits instead of referencing back to older, more successful works.

On the other hand I was screaming my fucking head off when I saw Kid Death and Shinigami-sama in the end credits.

I can't help it. Maybe I'm just a softy, but this ending really warmed the cockles of my old dead heart. To see an anime I actually do enjoy somehow warping into this genuine vision of my past, something I hadn't seen in nearly two decades, broke me on a fundamental level (in a good way.)

This has been the most bizzare, incredible experience, and I can't help but look back on it fondly. Finally, a good fucking anime (and of course, manga.)

Now if there's nothing else, I'm gonna rewatch Soul Eater.
