Oh cool, I could totally play that again.
There's also that line in her thigh I mentioned that leads me to believe it was hand drawn.
I'm very tired today, is that trailer kind of confusing?
Is this AI art? Details are wiggity.
Oh, but there are conflicting lines in bulma's thigh.
So probably not. Hm.
That left breast is really reaching for the sky, and the Android's left hand is super tiny and tangled in her hair.
Bulma looks like she's vomiting out a neckerchief.
Digital IDs that Protect Privacy.
Protection From Digital ID Corruption.
Anything concise that conveys a couple core points
Thanks, I put it on my watch list.
That reminds me of that frat bro branding that nobody should look up and I'm not linking to.
That really bothered me.
It is nsfl.
Gunna play borderlands 1 and relaaaaax simultaneously
Still on my borderlands one playthrough, level 25, it's fun, I'm excited to see where it goes.
I keep hearing borderlands 2 is where it's at, but I wanted to start at the beginning.
Ha, uh. That makes the bee movie sound good.
Is it good?
Wow, that is upsetting to read.
At least most of them are in one place.
Yikes, I only remembered one scene from this book, and somehow managed to forget
Title
The Atlanteans slicing open living humans and aliens to harvest their organs in the blood and sowing them back up into mummies.
Pretty hardcore.
And there's some cute Tobias Rachel back and forth.
Man, I wanna morph an orca.
Tons of good quotes in this one.
I like that inside cover too, how they can't actually show the guy
even though of course it's described in great detail in the book.spoiler
strangling a dog,
Ax is so funny as a human. When he finds out that Marco's dad is dating, and ax's been getting used to TV, he says <Ah. Perhaps your father is Young and Restless. Those who are Young and Restless frequently change mates.>
Love it.
You know what else is interesting, that both sides in this war look like humans, they look like anybody else, even though both sides can turn into murderers at the drop of a hat. Sure. The aliens look like humans, but the child soldiers who change into animals all the time and kill people also look harmless most of the time.
And Jake has a great line about how they're all different and they have to deal with their trauma in their own way.
And also Jake said I love you to Cassie! Wooo!
Marco has this great quote:
"Self-pity is the easiest thing in the world. Finding the humor, the irony, the slight justification for a skewed, skeptical optimism, that's tough."
I am definitely an unlikely optimist, I wonder if this book had any part to play in that particular personality development.
A great book for Cassie, although her books are always the most difficult because so many of her choices are to go against her nature as a pacifist and make some kind of sacrifice for the greater good. Like literally letting two different aliens control her in different books.
We get to read some impressive morphing showcases here and this inside cover is great.
The gang has a great plan to disrupt a dangerous new weapon and the plan mostly works until

Tobias is brutally tortured to the brink of death by a sadist voluntary controller.
He and Rachel finally kiss at the end after she saves him and doesn't kill the sadist much to my disappointment. Tobias convinces Rachel that killing his torturer would make them as bad as the torturer, and I do not agree.
Weird skin tones in that double andalite drawing. And a segmented rattlesnake tail, which I don't think we've seen before either and the tail has never been described looking like.
Mean Rachel and nice Rachel! Marco can date nice Rachel and mean Rachel can break his arm!
It's a win-win.
In which the brutality of being child soldiers is explicitly spelled out to dispel any doubt that these kids are not irrevocably traumatized when
Title
Marco reveals he had a plan to kill tom the whole time in a way nobody would suspect the animorphs of doing it. And obviously in the last book a bunch of them tried to kill Marco's mom, so their moral compasses are pretty much destroyed by having to constantly kill things and make awful no-win decisions result in them hurting people, themselves were being tortured. Oh right, they torture Chapman in this book also.
I like this book because they really let you know that things are not going to be okay and these kids are not going to pull up out of the trauma that's going to shape the rest of their lives. This war has already ruined their morality and ethics and general social interdependency, and things are not going to get better.
This is kind of the book where you know things are not going to get better or get wrapped up neatly, no matter what happens.
Ah, "exaggerated" is keying me in to a more complete definition, thanks
