  • Another set of Homestuck frames set to music to make a poor man's animation, this time of Eridan's rampage. This is becoming a habit.
    And hey, if there are any other Homestuck scenes you think could use the Shitty Windows Movie Maker treatment, let me know.

    I personally love Eridan's character because it's incredibly tragic. No one saw this coming, and yet... In hindsight it makes perfect sense.
    Eridan never apologized for being a monster
    No one ever apologized to him for turning him into one:
    Not Feferi, who had him do her dirty work (i.e. orphaning babies) and dumped him the second she no longer needed him
    Not Vriska for ghosting him
    Not Sollux for actively antagonizing him
    Not Karkat, his one and only friend for ignoring him for about a month
    Not Kanaya, whose literal job as a sylph is helping people in his state, for granting him unparalleled power just so she didn't have to listen to him and his problems.
    Eridan is ignored and dismissed by everyone. Even the story ignores him (beta troll with the least appearances). His only face to face interaction throughout Hivebent was a deadly duel with Sollux
    The signs were there all along, and yet. No one paid enough attention. Maybe he could have been stopped. And that is the most tragic part of it all.

      Late to the party, but it has to do with hope once again.
      Notice when he destroys it it says "Hopesplode." Well as a Prince of Hope (Destroyer of hope) one of all the trolls hopes is that they can start society over once more with the matriorb, where as eridan finds it a fools errand and kills off all hope.

  • @BarkNoir
    @BarkNoir Před 9 lety +585

    I believe Eridan did go Grimdark (If only for a moment). To go Grimdark, as far as my understanding goes, and in relation to SBURB, is the rejection and/or reversal of one's role (That is class and/or aspect). Eridan is the Prince of Hope, a Destroyer of Hope. The aspects go as follows: Space-Time
    Breath-Blood
    Light-Void
    Life-Doom
    Mind-Heart
    Hope-Rage
    Now, if a Hope player gives in to rage, as in Eridan's case, would they not go Grimdark as Rose, a light player, did when she tapped into the void?

    • @KingOpenReview
      @KingOpenReview Před 9 lety +144

      Princes destroy things using their aspect. Eventually they have to bring about the destruction of their own aspect. Eridan didn't really give into rage. He simply lost hope that Bec Noir could be beaten. His new hope was that he could be spared if he made himself useful to Noir and to convince Feferi to come. In essence he destroyed hope using hope. He didn't exactly go grimdark. If anything he fully embraced his role.

    Honestly, how Kanaya managed to kill Eridan is a hundred times more impressive in light of his Pesterquest route. We've always known that highbloods were more physically stronger and durable, but Sollux threw an entire MALL at the airship Eridan was on, and Eridan managed to dig himself out of the rubble with nothing but his pride broken. Now keep that scene in half and re-read the section where Kanaya cuts this guy in half with a chainsaw.
    I actually doubt Kanaya would be able to kill Eridan before she became a Rainboe Drinker, even if she was able to get a swing of her chainsaw in this scene before she died (unless she hit the neck or something).

  • @Vincebae00
    @Vincebae00 Před 9 lety +399

    Alright, this is why Karkat didn't interfere, plus some other things.
    Karkat is a mutant blood, correct? It is highly likely from the flash where he shoosh-papped Gamzee that his blood would have been lime if not for the mutation.
    If that is true, then he would still be a lowblood, or at least a midblood. He still wouldn't stand a chance against Eridan, a highblood.
    Lowbloods lack physical strength, but show psychic abilities. However, Karkat has shown neither, probably due to his mutation. Eridan would have the upper hand, with his strength along with his wand.
    Karkat probably didn't fight because, if he died, they would lose a leader, and he believed that without someone holding everyone together, the game would be lost.
    Kanaya attacked because we all know that she can be violent. In the lowblood-highblood terms that I go by (I don't use midblood), she would only be one caste away from highblood. I don't believe she's shown any psychic abilities, and we know how strong Terezi is from when she beat up Gamzee in ACT 6 (I know that Gamzee didn't fight back at first, but look at the damage she did. Even if Gamzee fought back, like he did after Aranea's powers stopped, Terezi could still probably win due to her wit. She didn't attack Gamzee after he started because she couldn't believe what she had done.) Terezi is only one caste above Kanaya. So imagine the damage Kanaya can do.
    However, like I said before, Eridan had the upper hand. While Kanaya, Feferi, and Karkat would have to get in close range to attack him, he could simply attack with this long range wand, such as how he did with Sollux, Feferi, and Kanaya.
    Plus, it is canon that Eridan and Karkat used to vent about feelings. Canonly, Eridan shared more with Karkat than he did Feferi. Eridan attacked Feferi and Kanaya out of self-defense. Karkat did not try to attack him, which is why Eridan basically ignored him. Also, we must not forget that Eridan and Karkat had a pact that was never discussed. That must mean something, right?
    We all believe that Eridan went Grimdark right? Such as how Rose went grimdark when she lost her mother, and her light was gone. Well, Eridan is a Prince of Hope. He destroys hope. When he said there was no hope left, and he knew when to accept that, it would be possible for him to go grimdark.
    Since he destroys hope, that is why he blew up the matriorb. That was one of their only canon hopes for prepopulating the trolls. When he destroyed it, the hope was gone. He destroyed the hope, showing that he truly is a Prince of Hope.
    Sorry, I have more points to cover, but I'll just keep the discussion on this video.

    There's a difference between acting on impulse and being provoked. Eridan showed no intention of hurting Fef until she charged towards him with a trident. Although Fef was (maybe?) doing what she thought was the best thing it really just got her killed, kind of like how Nepeta probably knew Gamzee would kill her but tried to get some form of revenge anyway.

    To be honest this is just enjoyable for me. I mean, sure, my zodiac troll, Feferi, and my favourites were killed, but this also shows everyone has their reason for acting the way they do. In my opinion, Eridan only attacked in self defence, and destroying the matriorb was a cruel move, but does make sense considering his aspect.
    Princes are destructive classes, and can easily give in to the temptation to destroy most likely, since I’m a Prince myself. Prince of Life to be more exact. As a Prince Of Hope, he either destroys his aspect or destroys through it, and here he destroys hope. Frankly I find that rather cool
    And we all know how unstable he can be. He’s an ass, that I won’t deny, but he’s cool too! People loves Gamzee despite what he did, but hate Eridan, portraying him as a desperate troll for quadrants, and I just find that insulting.
    So what if he has quadrant problems? It didn’t change the fact he was still badass as ever! That’s why I love him personally, his personality is rather fun, and he’s cool as heck

    @carcinokarkat2944 Před 8 lety +296

    Ok so Sollux challenged Eridan do a duel, it was a fair fight, so you can't blame him for blinding Sollux. Then Feferi probably thought Sollux was dead so she charged at him and he killed her in self defense. Then he destroyed the matriorb which I'll admit was a dick move, and then kanaya charged at him, he killed her in self defense. So the only thing you can really blame him for is destroying the matriorb and later on a new matriorb is made. So I don't see why so many people hate Eridan because of this. Eridan killed in self defense, gamzee wasn't in the right state of mind. But what really pisses me off is how no one holds anything against vriska. She paralyzed tavros, then harassed him for being paralyzed, she blinded terezi, she killed aradia and then she kills tavros. The only thing she did that has any justification at all is blinding terezi, this being because she caused vriska to lose an arm and sight in one eye, but still none of that would have happened if she didn't kill aradia. So in conclusion I think that Eridan and gamzee had justification for their actions. But vriska has little to no justification but almost no one holds this against her.

    Eridan is partially in the right for this situation I believe.
    1. Sollux and Eridan have a duel, which Eridan wins.
    2. Feferi charges at Eridan, he kills her in self defense.
    3. Eridan destroys the matriorb.
    4. Kanaya charges at Eridan. He kills her in self defense
    5. Eridan leaves, not harming the remaining trolls.
    Eridan could have simply hit Feferi's trident or Kanaya's chainsaw, or their legs which would have had less of a fatality rate. He did destroy the matriorb, which was a reasonable reason for Kanaya to get angry but not to kill him. After killing the attackers, he leaves. Not killing Karkat as he did not attack him directly.
    Overall, I believe Eridan was in the wrong (joining Bec Noir, destroying the matriorb) in some cases, but in the right (Winning the duel, self defense for Feferi and Kanaya) for some cases.

      Really though, I've never gotten this argument. I like Eridan but he's literally a parody of 'nice guys' and also is kind of a shitty person, but he does a great job at it! So he's a good character. I love reading his scenes with Karkat. Anyway, they didn't attack for no reason. He was going to go and join Jack, which was a fucking stupid idea and would get them all killed (similar to how Vriska going to fight him would also get them all killed). They HAD to stop him physically since he wouldn't listen. He also came up to Feferi telling him she was also going to join Jack with him (also even if Jack let them join him, which he wouldn't, everyone else would still end up dead). He killed them because they didn't want to join the bad guys and they were trying to stop him from getting all their friends killed. In what world is that self defense?

    Eridan has poor eyesight because of his glasses. Feferi liked them so he kept his glasses. His plan was to kill Sollux and KO Feferi. Instead, it was the other way around. Don't hate Eridan, blame Feferi for her own death, as she was the one who told Eridan to keep the faulty glasses.

      no but seriously it's just a thing ive developed because ive seen other people type like it. kind of like you you start using words and idioms people close to you use. in any case, he still tried to attack sollux and feferi, which literally does not justify his actions at all. you can still like a character and acknowledge what they did is shitty (kind of like how my favourite character is aranea and she literally caused the death of like eight people solely out of the need to feel validated. still shitty).

    • @eis8sjjsj
      @eis8sjjsj Před 7 lety +8

      i agree and disagree with your points. starting off, he didnt attack feferi, she attacked him. even though her death isnt justified and i can agree that eridan is far from innocent, i dont think i can just point fingers on eridan for her death. she was the one who went at him.
      now with sollux, he did try to start a fight. i can agree that even as a source of self defense, he was intentionally trying to annoy sollux and 'hit on' feferi at the same time.
      eridan was an ass to kanaya, breaking the matriorb. total dick move. cant defend him at all.
      overall, i think it really comes down to how much self-defense you think should be allowed before called guilty. if you had a gun and someone with a trident was running at you at full speed with no where to run, id assume most would pull the trigger. (pls excuse any grammatical/spelling errors as it is quite late here lol

    1.eridan knocked Sollux out, no intention of killing

    3. Eridan kills Fef: self defense
    4. Kanaya lunges at Eridan
    5.eridan kills Kan: self defense
    6. Karkat watches without trying to hurt Eridan: Is left alone.
    Conclusion: it was self defense.

    • @mirrorzone5224
      @mirrorzone5224 Před 8 lety +47

      He blew up the Matriorb, the last hope of his entire species, without provocation which prompted Kanaya into attacking. He planed to sell out the other trolls to Bec Noir to save his own skin and only offered to save Feferi for selfish reasons which is why Sollux fought him, he had to. That also implies that he lied right to Kanaya's face when he said he wanted to help her hatch the Matriorb. He's a liar, a traitor, and a coward. Let's not forget that he's also a mass murdering racist, even if he was only doing what was expected of him and helping out Feferi, that's still pretty horrible. He deserved what he got.

    I beg to differ. Their personalities are basically their sign. And your personality ties into how you react to things. Karkat's a grumpy cancer, Vriksa stings peope like a Scorpio, Sollux is bipolar, etc. And those personality traits would affect the way you handle things.

    ED wanted Fef to join him. But she wouldn't. He was desperate for her safty and thought that was the only way. His action's aren't justified, but areunderstandable. He opened his heart to someone and as an Aquarius I can say that it's hard to do with our emotional walls. At the end the Prince of Hope had lost hope. And that's the one thing that us Aquarian's need. Hope. Without it we are desperate with no reason left to even live. Wehardly ever adress emotions and when we do we get overwhelemed

    @Wilfrezsasha I'm sorry, but that's stupid. Ignoring Kanaya's 'perfection', Eridan had been trying to -kill- everyone before SGRUB even started. He undermined himself by ostracizing everyone except Feferi. Hell, he made his SGRUB session -harder on himself- by killing his consorts because they were just there. Everything he had thrown at him was his own fault. And even if Kanaya didn't come along (I don't buy that she was really dead), someone would have had to kill him. He was on a RAMPAGE.

  • @JossVan
    @JossVan Před 4 měsíci +1

    Bueno, no e visto a nadie de habla hispana comentar sobre esto, asi que como nadie me va a entender voy a ser el abogado del diablo y intentare hacer que la gente vea mas sobre como puede interpredarse este momento.
    1:Eridan acepto que queria traicionar al grupo para irse con Jack Noir, pero no se sabe si eso incluia atacar y destruir a su equipo (Tal vez se menciona en el ultimo acto pero apenas lo estoy leyendo) por algo no parecia tener intenciones agresivas con nadie antes de que sollux lo retara
    2:Ya todos saben que el enfrentamiendo de Eridan y Sollux fue un duelo entre ambos, no puedes satanizar a Eridan por ganar, al final ambos aceptaron
    3:La muerte de feferi la ocasiono ella misma, parecia mas interesada en cobrar venganza que en asegurarse de la salud de Sollux (apesar de que es una jugadora de la vida y podia hacer algo con su aspecto) además puedes ver como Eridan parece advertir a feferi que no se atreva, su mirada dice "Un paso más y no dudare en atacar" y aun asi ella parecia subestimar la varita cientifica de Eridan (apesar de que con esa varita vencio a Sollux enfrente de ella) y puedes ver como el parece más molesto al verla ir contra el.
    4:Aun me sorprende que nadie haya mirado que Kanaya tenia su LAPIZ LABIAL(Motocierra) en su mano mientras veia a Eridan, era obvio que ella temia por su vida y esperaba el momento justo para atacar, por eso ambos se quedan mirando atentos esperaban pacientemente que el otro cometiera un error y fue Kanaya al darle mas importancia al matriorbe que a Eridan (Tal vez si no le hubiera prestado atencion Eridan no lo hubiera notado). E visto que muchas personas dicen que no era necesario que ella muriera, pero tomando en cuenta que la unica salida estaba entre ellos dos, solo uno iba a poder salir.
    Si bien nada de lo que dije justifica lo que paso, tambien hay que darse cuenta de que, si sollux no hubiera subestimado a Eridan, pudo haber aprovechado un ataque por la espalda para evitar todo lo que paso, de que Feferi fue demasiado impulsiva al ir a atacar sin pensar, que Kanaya no era inocente y si hubiera podido, hubiera acabado con Eridan en un descuido de el.
