Hello, Sorry If You've Answered This Question Before, But What Advice Would You Give To A Absolute Beginner

Ok so definitely this type of thing regarding the show has been talked about before I don’t doubt BUT I still wanna put in my two cents regarding it so let’s get this going.

So Bob’s Burgers. Great show, adult cartoons done right (once they got their footing since I believe their early seasons felt more Family Guy/Simpsons which considering it was coming out a little late to the game so I assume it believed it needed to be like them but thankfully they’ve grown more confident not saying early seasons are bad their still hilarious ANYWAY OFF TRACK-)

And I really love their character cast. Bob, Linda, Teddy, and of course the Belcher kids (Gene is my favorite but not the topic of discussion).

The two I wanted to point out were Tina and Louise and an interesting thing I noticed regarding the two.

Not so much their relationship (though that itself is would be fun to dissect) but the way they seem to be on complete opposite sides of femininity.

Now to be clear I don’t think anyone, fictional or real, should need to abide by gender norms, but with how engrained it is societally, it’s hard to ignore, especially in television.

Regarding the two girls, Tina seems to be what I think most people would assume a thirteen year old girl would be into at that age. Horses, boys, writing, boys, girlscouts, did I mention boys? (though I feel her level for boys kinda goes a step further which we will get into).

I’m no historical expert in regards to feminine normalities, being a male myself, but I wouldn’t be pressed to see advertising primarily push horses, dolls, and boy crushing onto girls at a young age, which Tina seems to enjoy, and that itself is fine of course, no harm done.

Now all of that?

Throw it out the window for Louise because this girl is here to bring gender norms to the back ally and murder it with a bat.

Louise LOVES fire, knives, basically anything remotely adventurous, risky, or dangerous. Literally she wanted to go out in a hurricane storm in hopes to have some fun (and did! But it was boring so they went home). When she got a crush on a Boy band member? She went through a ton of effort to meet them, all to just fucking bitch slap the guy.

She also knows how to lock pick and is a creature of chaos.

She technically does have dolls, but all of them are alien like creatures and her favorite, Kuchi Kopi, is a Japanese figure (which would be less weird if it weren’t for her being in America).

All of these things, plus more, make her very not feminine and I love her for it. Literally her gender in this case doesn’t define her, it’s her personality.

This isn’t to say she can’t or doesn’t like predominantly female things, but the ratio def leans toward more neutral or masculine things throughout the shows time on air.

And it stands out even more when we have Tina, who immerses herself in it, to compare to Louise, who barely even interacts with it.

The reason I enjoy this is because it’s such a simple way to easily ignore gender norms by having two characters, siblings mind you, be on completely different sides of the idea (And Gene is just Gene, he is his own norm).

I’d pull out episode specific examples but what I’m doing right now doesn’t allow me that kind of time but I assure you dear reader that if you just read this cause you were bored and don’t know a lick of this show that just watching a Louise-centric and then Tina-centric episode you will see my point (hell even when they aren’t the focus you could probably see it).

Also even though Tina does fit into the more feminine side she isn’t completely locked to it either. Her love for boys would be seen as kinda obsessive (which let’s be honest if gender swapped would not be nearly as loved from the internet), and she’s willing to help her siblings in their own things of interest (though not without giving her own concerns).

Anyway please watch Bob’s Burgers it’s a great series ok BYEEEE

Susie is not even this big I just naturally drew her like a large dog 😭💖

World basis:

Early in the 1980’s people were being born with completely different structural heads than normal. Late into it was it found to be a sudden neurological connection to the 4th dimension, causing a literal and physical mental imbalance.

Those affected believed it should be removed, so they were meant to be Nullified, but instead this stuck as the term for those born with it.

Once the panic had calmed down, society began to pick itself back up by the late 1990’s.

The mass of the older generation, who have not gotten this neurological change, have indifference or even hatred to those Nullified.

Nullified:

Those who had this neurological connection resulted in their head, or body, having completely different properties to that of someone without it.

Because the connection is based in time, every person with it doesn’t have the same look or effect. No two people will ever have exactly tge same results.

Despite how they look, Nullfied can still function like a normal human, not withstanding any mental or physical disabilities formed from birth (which were wrongly accused to be more common in Nullfied as a way to see them lesser. There is no factual evidence that being Null is naturally flawed).

Some who become Null may even have the ability to do things once seen as impossible, akin to comic book superhero’s.

Since the variety would make it impossible to narrow down powers that are or aren’t harmful, Null who can do this are under government watchlists (unbeknownst to the Nullfied).

Otherwise, court of law judges Null’s powers in their own sanctum, so mental or physical assault with these abilities are classified as such.

Characters (so far):

Shayy

+ Meta-Morphing shape for a head

+ Emotions are very much on his sleeve

+ jack of all arts, master of none

+ Hard time with friends

+ ADHD like mad

Louisiana

+ Whole eye for a head

+ Doesn’t really have an idea for what she wanna do for a life

+ Knows most of the other nulls in the small town, but most prominently…

Crane

+ An asshole

+ Whole body minus the center is skeleton

+ Feels like his life is already done

+ Gas Station worker

+ Smokes a lot; doesn’t feel it cause it can’t reach his lungs

And more in the works!

Concepts:

some susie quickies cuz i've been replaying deltarune for the next chapter and oh boy is she the best character in the whole game or what?

I’m so cold…

Horrible at taking photos of my traditional art but here’s some Noelle.

Surprisingly my interest in her is fairly recent, I didn’t care much for her at the time of chapter two release. Not sure why I’m so fond of her now.

WARNING: INCOMING ART GUSH

(And dissection of U.A’s esteemed principal, Nedzu)

Alright so time to outwardly gush about this art piece.

So, note, Nedzu's my favorite character in recent. Despite their not being a lot to him, what there is really fascinates me, mostly from how despite the knowledge we have him being limited, it's enough to build character potential over it. The most striking thing we know (and supposedly, no one else knowing) is him being experimented on to some degree, enough for him to have a deep resentment for humanity because of those experiments.

Now because he's so open as a character, it results in a lot of interpretations for how he acts. Some people write him to be a bit of an asshole at points due to this deep seeded hate, whilst others just effectivelly make him goddamn insane (but in a good way). The same can obviously be said for his backstory too, though not a lot of people tackle this aspect regarding this character, and frankly, why would they?

Not because it wouldn't be a interesting thing to look into, but because it's effectively just becomes complete and utter headcannon once doing so (Also, probably from it not really having a great moment within canon to appear unless its a Nedzu-focused fic). ANYWAY to get back onto my railroad tracks-

This piece is amazing. The lighting of a deep fog in the back not only puts the focus on Nedzu and the rodents, but enseams a sense of unclarity both for the viewer and potentially, Nedzu. Ya see, I've always been fascinated by his first ever line in the series being him making a joke at his own expense; Primary on his appearence being unclear as to what kind of animal he actually is.

Now call me a deep diver, but I feel like this line is a lot more personal on Nedzu's end then he leads on. Personally (Headcannon moment), I do belive Nedzu does know what species he is now, but for a long time did, in fact, not.

Nedzu, for a while, didn't even care for what species he was, because his primary goal was to be human. Not literally of course, but on the level of respect. Nedzu's quirk doesn't just give him intelligence, but specifically sapience. And a level that I imagine can go far beyond a human at times.

And this piece also really plays into that. In a room full of animals who just live to survive, Nedzu can live for far more that. Mice, rats, and all of those rodents in between all live to simply eat, sleep, reproduce, and repeat. Nedzu, though, doesn't have to limit himself there. Nedzu, for all he's capable of, can see himself above his species, and maybe even equal to those with his level of intelligence. The problem was...

...people didn't see him that way. Especially not those who experimented on him for god knows what. He was just seen as a smarter mammal, not an equal. So instead of wanting to be seen as an animal, he pushed himself to be human. His first line completely throws away the idea that he focuses on who he truly is, and instead his postion. He moved himself up on the social ladder to effectivelly enforce a sense of humanity into himself because otherwise, he was nothing more than just a rat. Or a bear. Or a dog.

Do I think Nedzu enjoys having to do this? Maybe not. He isn't happy in the piece per se, but I don't think he necessarily regrets it. On some level though, I imagine he does wish he didn't have the Quirk he did. Just a day to be true to himself, rather than to be true to humanity. But, for whatever reason, he did. So he isn't just gonna drop dead. He will use what he's been given and make the most of it. Even if it means losing that piece.

Ok I'm done now :).
