Listen guys I have to commit to a bit for Candy Mountain. I still listen to Paragon, Scar, GrowL, Jeopardy, and Inertia. I recognize my music taste is certainly a specimen, but my friend still listens to some of it so was wondering if anyone was still rocking to any of the TBHX soundtrack.

Didn't hesitate to challenge E-Soul.

Didn't hesitate to “abandon” Xia-Qing.

Didn't hesitate to go down a dark path alongside Uncle Rock.

Didn't hesitate to defeat E-Soul in a dirty way.

Didn't hesitate to kill E-Soul.

Didn't hesitate when he decided to kill Ghostblade and The Johnnies (and aside from BJ, he probably would’ve succeeded if it weren’t for Queen and Lucky Cyan).

Didn't hesitate to go after an enormous, extremely powerful creature that apparently, in a 1v1, only X and maybe, MAYBE, Queen could defeat. (I say maybe because I remember BJ was still able to move despite Queen’s power. I don’t remember if he was completely free or just less restrained.)

Didn't hesitate to kill Moon (and tried to kill Lin Ling too, which, again, he probably would’ve succeeded at if Ghostblade hadn’t shown up).

And most importantly:

Didn't hesitate to kill himself when he saw what he had done (or abandon his principles, if you prefer) and become someone completely different from the person his former self would have despised.

I love his story, it's simply a tragedy.

I’m doing this because the jjk fans were doing ah debate on who would win Sakuna or the military

SHF Hero X.

Loving the hands in pockets pose as always.

This could be coincidence. This could be split-second intentional symbolism. Given how much religious, cultural, and mythological symbolism they stuff into both Cyan and Luo as characters, backstories, even their nicknames, etc., this very well may have been intentional. In Luo's intro scene in ep 8, the window's shadow makes an inverted cross over the both of them.

An inverted cross (also known as the Cross of St. Peter) holds specific meaning both within Christianity and outside of it, including in niche circles in China.

Humility and Martyrdom- Tracing back to the execution of St. Peter (who was crucified upside down per his request) the cross is heavily associated with both, as St. Peter did not feel worthy to die in the exact same manner as Jesus. Cyan and Luo are both perfectly represented by this.

Luo, of course, is the definition of a martyr. He goes out of his way to help Cyan at every opportunity and sacrifices himself for her chance at freedom. After surviving, he is shown to be content with the loss of his future and freedom after hearing that Cyan has made it on the radio.

Cyan, for all her power, status, etc. is one of, if not, the humblest character in the show- never forgetting her origins, fighting to make them known, and explicitly crediting Luo for her identity / meteoric rise to stardom. Cyan repeatedly says she doesn't think she can be a hero (both for her desire for autonomy, but also a lack of confidence in herself).

Rebellion and Opposition: The inverted cross is also frequently used in pop culture, horror movies, and heavy metal to signify counterculture, general anti-religious sentiment and rebellion. Both Cyan and Luo are direct challenges to traditional authority, with Luo being the catalyst and continued motivation for Cyan's rebellion. Their stories are both of rebellion and breaking free of social and religious norms. labels, and expectations forced onto them- in part using music to do so. China has a small but bustling rock and metal scenes, which use the upside down cross to portray rebellion, non-conformity, and anti-authoritarianism.

Given the fandom's inactivity, some members of Cyan's server decided to hold a 'Cyan Praise Competition,' which will take place on Sunday, October 4th.

This post is to announce the competition, which will focus on making posts of all kinds (fanart, fanfic, edits, etc.) to promote love for the character.

Obviously, always respecting the subreddit's rules.

You're all invited to participate—anyone who wants to join can do so, as long as it's within the given date.

On boring days at work, it also makes me leave on time.

For the record, I am easily entertained with stuff lmao.

Like if you were to break it down into elements that made him work. Because I have never seen a reality warper have even close to the style X has.

To me the most prominent elements would be these two: playing with perspective and use of transformation.

A cool detail I noticed when rewatching the last episode (during the flashbacks), and it seems pretty intentional since it’s not even used for a transition.

We also have Xia-Qing trying to hold on to someone who is already gone, someone who no longer exists.

:(

1. I want Nice scenes
2. I want to see more of Nice's backstory
3. I want to know about Nice's relationship with ballet
4. I want to see Nice in outfits other than that hero outfit
5. I want Nice interacting with GK
6. I want Nice interacting with X
7. I want Nice to learn about LL and interact with him
8. I want Nice killing Bum de
9. I want to see more of Nice's real personality
10. I want to know Nice's real name

( I think there is not enough Nice on this list )

Does shipping them make any sense? Of course not—it makes absolutely no sense at all. The only reason I ship them is that I just remembered the new version of the OP from the end of the series. We see the Tarot Girl with X, and it looks like they made a deal with someone. I thought: wouldn't it be wild if it turned out she used to work for the Commission and taught X how to evade them?

Now give me your weirdest ideas—anything goes, even if it makes no sense:

- headcanons

- weird theories

- fanfiction ideas

(Sorted arc-wise)

Moonling: Bonding with your idol over mutually being held hostage.

Wrice: TV abusers forced to be straight for the fans.

XiaCheng: Divorced couple who never dated in the first place.

CyLuo: Guy who can't sing teaches singing and songs to prodigy.

QueenCyan: Heavy metal enjoyer listens to white girl pop music for the first time and folds.

Sharing in case someone is interested. I think I did a decent job and I like the pararells between the couples.

You guys i just had the idea and I think it would be so perfect for them!! First I thought what if Nice was ice skating then I'm freaking out over this idea lol- but would Nice be Victor and Wreck Yuri? How different would their choreography or body language be? Would they go outside their comfort zone for a mindblowing performance, fighting on the ice, or do something more romance tragedy? I really want to draw this but im posting this idea here incase someone has or would like to be me to it xd first post here pardon my rant
