    PSSSST. I have a secret for everyone that's tuning into this video. Come a little closer. It's such a valued secret, it defies belief. It'll rattle you to your very core. A little closer. A little - there we go. Here it is:
    **inhales**
    There are other videos on my channel.
    Other Homestuck videos, in fact. That have a very similar style to this one. And also cover similar topics. And even some that, while they don't cover Homestuck explicitly, might just be worth checking out anyways.
    Yeah. That's a pretty good secret, ISN'T IT?
    Don't mind the smell, I've just been drinking heavily this morning.
    Wh - what, no! Don't run away! No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
    Damn you, reality! Why do you always have to ruin everything!
    **knocks over a table**
    It's always like this! You're always like this! Uh -
    **buckles over and vomits**
    Blorrrrrrgh! Ugh, kaff, kaff -
    **falls down into vomit**
    Ah! Shit! Shit!
    **spins around in vomit, spreading it over clothes**
    I've - FUCKING had it! I am fed up with this world!

      Homestuck’s themes are actually pretty incredible. I’ve legitimately been a little obsessed with the aspect wheel over the past couple months. I never realized until recently just how enlightening it can be on a personal level, and it’s cool to see an “elemental” system made of such unique pieces.
      Homestuck might be a meme, but it’s got way more profound and moving stuff than people give it credit for.

    That's a pretty interesting take on Eridan: despite being debatable, one can really appreciate many of the points you made. I feel the verbiage employed was humorous, didactical and denotes the man of science you strive to be.

      I mean, it’s still technically Eridan’s theme, as it’s called “Violet Prince”. Hussie sometimes reappropriates songs made for specific characters in the Flashes, like how “Time on my Side” and “Unite Synchronization” were written for Dave but were given to Dirk in-comic.

      @@ThatOneRandomSteve it's called visual poetry, thank you very much. Athough,
      to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Homosuck. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Caliborn's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from "More How To Draw Manga Vol. 1 The Basics Of Character Design", for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Homosuck truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Caliborn's existencial catchphrase "I want to play a game," which itself is a cryptic reference to the horror movie "Saw" I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Andrew Hussie's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Homosuck tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the whore's eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

    My personal head canon is that the reason Eridan seems hyper focused on acquiring a Kismesis is because he genuinely believes he's incapable of holding onto any of the other three quadrants. He acts with confidence but deep down, he's filled with doubt and self-loathing and it gets even worse when Feferi breaks off their Moirallegiance. He genuinely admires her and actually glorifies her to an unhealthy extent so when she consciously chooses to remove herself as the only positive influence in his life, it breaks him. After all, if the Troll he believes to be the most patient and kind of his species can't even stand to be his Moirail, what hope is there for anything in his life outside of Spades?
    *edit* Even if this is a joke video its still interesting.

      One thing that interesting is that in the post-canon eridan is turned into a pretty boy of sorts. But in the initial canon he has bags under his eyes and is constantly squinting even with glasses. I like to think that the bags are a result of constantly hunting for lusus , a sign of his hard work and dedication.

    • @franciscorui
      @franciscorui ปีที่แล้ว +9

      There also the fact that Eridan was always aware of his flaws, every time someone called him out he typically said 'yeah', meaning he has a high level of self awareness. What's sad though is that while he sees his flaws, he doesn't know how to fix them. Imagine being in that state, knowing the problems you have but not knowing how to fix them. He must have been in a hell of sorts.

      @fntthesmth423 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's interesting you say he's self aware--i always kinda interpreted his "yeah" answers when people call him out to be more of a brush-off. "yeah sure wwhatevver anywway wwhat wwas i sayin" style
      This is somewhat unrelated, but i also like how despite being a Derse dreamer, eridan seems to be allergic to introspection. Which is fair, if i were a nazi i would also want to avoid inspecting my worldview too closely lest it be shattered with a slight amount of logic

    Youre problably away from homestuck subjects for a longtime to read this but i feel like i should comment this in anyway .
    From time to time, i always end up coming back to this one video of yours (and others at it) because man... It genuinely amazes me how well structured and effort youve put into your opinions on these videos while being funny and informational at it. I can honestly agree and bacukup a hundred percent with your points about it. It is REALLY, REALLY refreshing that someone in this old and endlessly dying fanbase have some good points and opinions about this under/overappreciated comic (if i must say, almost everytime in the "wrong" way). This is the type of content that i craved from homestuck back in the day and never found anything quite like you, ive always felt how people just mindlessly and effortlessly spited opinions about this and that on homestuck and it just seemed so silly... but not you, youve never ceased to impress me about some takes on the comic people just never talked about or even failed realized. everytime i see your videos about homestuck bring me back that old feeling of wanting to revisit and read this comic full of flaws that in anyway ive grown to enjoy. I genuinelly wish the best, and happy new year!

    Joke or not, this arguement all falls apart when you notice and abhorrently obtrusive hamartia. Eridan is hypocritical. Despite being a man of "science" he never studies the "pseudoscientific alchemy" beyond the standard weapon forging the others partake in. Science is not only about asking questions, it's about being willing to accept the answers as they come, something Eridan has failed to do.
