nenena | Here's a fun game.

Count how many of these "twists" Tsubasa has used since the Infinity arc.

Here's my tally:

* Double-cross
* Unintentional Incest (caveat: 1/2 of the couple KNEW goddammit)
* Devil Deal Backfires
* Devil Actually ~~Autistic Boy~~ Yuuko
* ~~Autistic Boy~~ Yuuko Grants Wishes
* Amnesiac Villain Kidnaps Self (kinda-sorta what happened to Fay)
* Stolen Identity Not Worth It (how's that working out for you, Watanuki?)
* Death by Petard (Kyle)
* Conspiracy Kind of Boring (FWR)
* Government is In On It (Ashura-Ou)
* Government is ~~Autistic Boy~~ Werewolf
* The ~~Robot~~ Clone Reveal
* God From Machine (Chii)
* Vampires Repel Daylight (c'mon, guys, Fay was a light-swallowing black hole of angst for thirty chapters)
* It Wasn't a Dream (doomtube)
* Christ Analog Backfires (Sakura - and how!)
* Swords Replace Feelings (pretty much)
* Eagles
* Necromancer Solves Case (Yuuko)
* God Did It (this, just this)

That's twenty out of forty-two. Wow.

And remember, kids: The Dresden Codak list? Is supposed to be a joke. But that's pretty much what Tsubasa has been reduced to by this point, anyway. It's a joke.

I mean, this is such a beautiful illustration of how big a clusterfuck the ending of Tsubasa has turned into. From now on I can just say, "SEE THIS?! Yeah, that? Tsubasa has actually done half of those things in its final quarter. It has actually. done. twenty. of. those. things. No joke. I can't even make this shit up."

Here's a fun game.
