I also think we would have heard of a anime based off of Homestuck by now, too.

Homestuck being an anime is an in-joke among the fandom. There are Homestuck fans who are ACTUALLY trying to put together an anime, but it's one of those things that'll probably never get anywhere.
Looking at the page's history, several people were committed to this hoax, as there was some edit warring going on about it.
I saw that and almost had a heart attack.
Not just because of Homestuck anime, but 4kids. If there were to be a Homestuck anime, they wouldn't even be on the list of companies I'd want to make it.
Dave with a Brooklyn accent.
Yeah, he should obviously have a Texan one, seeing as he's from Houston (apparently).
Texan accents are what Houston people have, right? The only thing I know about Houston is that it's where you call when you're in trouble.
According to Hussie, the next Flash Update is supposed to be before the 11th so... anytime in the next 3 days.
I have no idea what it could be. Another Jane Adventure? uu: Wake? Something else?
It's gonna be [S] Roxy: Drift.
Just 20 minutes of Roxy in the void. That's all.
I'm thinking it's going to be [s] uu: Get Up.
[S] uu: Awaken or [S] Dirk: Enter is my guess, while my End of Act guess is along the lines of [S]: Arrival, where Team Battleship and Team Meteor arrive.
I'm nowhere near as sure about Arrival as I am about Awaken. Maybe Arrival is at the end of A6I3?
While waiting for the supdate, I came across this and thought it was hilarious.
Unfortunately it doesn't work as Rose is into Lovecraft and Roxy is into wizards.
Rose is all kinds of into wizards. She wrote The Complacency of the Learned. Pre- AND post-scratch!
She likes wizards, she just either doesn't like how MOM puts them on display, doesn't like that MOM is trying to like them too, or doesn't like the fact that her and MOM share an interest.

TG: i thought you hated wizards
TG: whats the deal with that

TT: What I don't like is my mother's obsession with feigning interest in them to antagonize me.
(anyone know the code/name for rose's text color? :smallconfused:)
Edit: Nevermind, found it, in this awesome thing.
Again, I don't see Rose as somebody interested in Harry potter. Roxy yes.
I didn't say she wasn't interested in magic, but just not in the "Fun, stupid and turn off your brain" kind of magic and more "Everybody dies an insane and horrible death" kind of magic.
I wouldn't classify Harry Potter as "Fun, stupid and turn off your brain"; but that's neither here nor there. The punchline isn't so much Harry Potter as it is My Immortal. If you haven't read it, it's a hilariously terrible fanfic and when it was being written (2006), a lot of people thought the author was trolling.
Yes I know my immortal. And the punchline doesn't work still because I wouldn't see Rose getting upset or even reading harry potter.
And yes, I do think that Harry potter requires turning your brain off to skip over the massive plot holes and poor writing.
But your right. That isn't here or there.
Rose isn't in Grimdark mode anymore.
As for her taste in literature, here's a reminder. Just look at the huge smile on her face as she yoinks the book away. It's really the smile that says "I'm going to turn my brain off and read this horrible book full of overwrought romantic nonsense and it'll be super fun".
Yet she always is a Grimdark person when it comes to magic.
That has nothing to do with magic.Quote:
"I'm going to turn my brain off and read this horrible book full of overwrought romantic nonsense and it'll be super fun".
Again, I would not see Rose reading Harry Potter. And I found the comic show her dialogue completely out of character. Much more energetic and less controlled then she usually acts.
Jeez, stop having fun guys! This parody of a character in a webcomic made by an insane man doesn't conform to the very specific characterization of the character it's making fun of! There's no way the joke can be funny unless it fits the canon 100%. I mean, there's no way the green space troll would ever ask the blue space troll for help, because I know they hate each other even though it's never specifically stated.
Wow
That pretty much is all there is to say. That was truly shocking and impressive.
Dirk is the best character ever.
Are we all in agreement?
SpoilerWTF did he teleport his head? :smalleek:
EDIT: Oh, there's more after the Flash :smalleek:
Three things.
1. Random Dirk/Meenah high-five. F*** yeah!
2. Dirk just gave Jake head *shot*
3. Poor Roxy didn't get to kiss anyone. Dirk got to kiss /everyone./ :smalltongue:
I cannot.
That was just.
Lil Hal. And the thing. And the whole of the thing.
)(IG)( FIV-E
Roxy sadface.
Roxy happyface.
Jane confusedface.
That was awesome.
Now that I've had 15 minutes to calm down.
They're all in the same place at the same time. If all goes to plan, they'll all be on Jake's planet, with only their current life to sustain them. That shouldn't be an issue as long as they don't go through any weird purple transportalisers and up to the arrival of the Pre-Scratch kids, and with them, BecJack.
I'm interested about what that says about their God Tier prospects. Kids have God Tiered with only one self before, but that was A: All dreamselfs (only a problem for Jake, assuming the process cares about that), B: In an explosion of Green Sun Fire (may not be an issue, key word may), and C: All Dersites (which may not be a problem for Jane or Jake, assuming a Crypt is in Prospit). That said, it is most definitely a problem for Roxy and Dirk, since Derse is being obliterated at the moment.
This is mostly moot if you can God Tier with a single self on the Beds on their planets though.
Presumably, Sawtooth and Squarewave all have the job of bringing the futurekids homes into the Medium to create the rest of the planets.
Assuming they're intelligent enough to avoid being Miles'd for long enough to do everything.
This has been your "make sure everyone is on the same page" post.
I was asked to shut up about my hate towards Dirk. I did so.
But don't push me.
Concerning godtierhood:
Dirk might be able to spawn a new dreamself from an other figment of him in somebody else's head like he did before.
Ugh.....Dirk has kind of made me reach critical mass. All the problems I find in the story Dirk kind of magnifies and prevents me from ignoring. I love Homestuck. I love every character in their own way. Except for Dirk.
All my hopes for Dirk getting knocked down a peg are kind of gone. And he has become too unbearable for me to continue.
Dam you Dirk. Dam you. Your making me quit Homestuck after a year and a half.
edit: Somebody PM me if he does get knocked down a peg.
Bwuh. Dirk you magnificent something something, you.

I made a dam of Dirk Striders because i'm mean.
I still don't understand how one character can make you hate Homestuck.
I don't. Its just that over the while, I have had some pretty large problems with homestuck. But as long as the characters where good, and the occasional awesome flash came along I was willing to ignore them.
But Dirk is sort of the Key to the Floodgate. I was hoping there would be an arc where he would stop being so smug as his own inane annoyance would mess everything up (I was expecting him telling Jake to be less believing would cause Jake to not kiss Dirk for that reason) but alas no.
Also how IS it spelt? Im sorry.
Ehehe, sorry for being so rude about it. :smallredface: It's spelled 'damn' though, with an N.
Hey, don't lose your head about Dirk -- he got that covered already.
Anyway, if Jake didn't go on with the corpsesmooch, what would have happened? Dream Dirk wouldn't have woken up, so he wouldn't have woken up Dream Roxy, so nobody would have been around to wake up Dream Jane, and also nobody would have been around to wake up Real Jake. Pretty much a "rocks fall; everybody dies" ending to that arc. If Dirk had been totally super awesome, his plan wouldn't have involved sendificating his head away from his body.
Is it just me or was the thing with Lil Hal getting Jake to kiss Dirk's head uneccessary. There were three pairs of perfectly functional lips right there that could have done the job.
But then Dirk wouldn't have gotten the x3 Corpse makeouts combo.
Andrew has identified himself with Dave before, and Dirk is Dave turned up to 11. Also he has the same tattoo as Hussie.
But yeah, you're probably right. AH is way too good a writer to pull stuff like this, but if it was a lesser human being I would certainly find this suspicious.
Lol, what is this I don't even.
But seriously, I have no idea why but this is the funniest thing ever. I am crying here. And I don't know why.
Yeah, this is where Dirk is a ****. He managed to set up having his main romantic rival watch having their mutual crush make out with his own severed head. Writing that sentence has pretty much cemented my love for this comic, but the point stands--it's a di(r)k move.Quote:

Also, love Roxy in all of this--she wears her heart on her sleeve and her expressions make her the perfect foil for Jane.
Wow. That was totally epic. I'm not entirely pleased with the way Lil Hal and Dirk manipulated Jake (Although This is a pretty darn epic background), but man if I wasn't cheering for Dirk most of the way through this, I don't know what I was doing. Well, apart from laughing at Jane and Roxy's facial expression.
On the topic of Dirk's character development here: Ultimately, I don't see a problem with Dirk getting his own awesome chess master moment here. Pride cometh before the fall, but if Dirk is just an overconfident jerk, then we're not going to view the inevitable fall as something tragic. This event gives us reason to understand why Dirk is right to be so confident, so that when it does bite him in the butt, it's a properly epic moment.
Anyone else slightly giggle at the fact that Squarewave basically morphs into a white Perfectly Generic Object?
It is my headcanon that Dirk and Meenah attempted to slap each other and failed miserably. Perfectly symmetrical violence never really solved anything.
It has been theorized that a Prince's arc involves their aspect getting destroyed. In line with this Dirk is predicted to have his Heart broken at some point in the story.
I love Jane's terrified face as she rides the rocket board. However, I still don't get why dirk lopped off his own head.
He had to get to Derse quickly to wake up Jane and grab Roxy. He also had to go to Roxy's place to kiss her to keep her alive. Killing himself at Roxy's place was the fastest and easiest way to get to the frog temple to emerge on Jakes Island and grab Jane, as opposed to kiss roxy, leave squarewave, go back through the window, back to his own home, enter the medium the traditional way, fly to derse from the land of whatever and whatever, pick up roxy, kiss jane, and then fly off to the frog temple.
I think this mean that Dirk's dreamself was retroactively awoken. That's why he was awake his whole life, because he made his Awakening achievement early.
Very impressive and thought out. It annoys me a little mostly because Dirk seems to formulate the plan to fast to be acceptable at least for me.
Pretty sure it was all by AR, by virtue of his statements to Jake.
I don't like Little Hal. He's very ominous.
I should probably stop reading this thread. When I was watching the flash, most of what I was thinking was "Wow, this is really going to upset the Dirk haters."
