dsfsdf i have been keeping a running character tracking sheet of like. character rankings, personality traits, charm points, of every word girl character............ there are shifts. the balance changes. seymour smooth has climbed the rankings as the show goes on!! the whammer really charms on rewatches.

tobey and 2brains are still so intensely tied for first..!!! this has never happened to me before. i think tobey eeks out a lil ahead for me but honestly thats purely on him having slightly more eps that are just Him And Wordgirl ('doesnt play well with others' is a cute shota charm point) vs 2brains has more eps of him bouncing off other villains... (one day i will talk about wordgirl's yaoi factor. but that's not what we are here for.) but they have backstory..! they have such a weird casualness that tobey only earns from her in short snippets. at least its very fun to pit them against one another...!

after that u have the butcher (who has a very charming rapport with her. i love a big big guy, big guy w tender heart, big guy who gets really jealous of his time w a 10 yr old girl) chuck???? (VERY scary mobu otaku energy, love that the show realizes he is surprisingly dangerous when focused, keeps making food that looks like wg and eating it) mr big+leslie (package deal), then u get a gap and u start to get to like, lady redundant woman, Invisibill (YAY! WHOO! INVISIBILL!!!!), Seymour Smooth, Hal Hardbargain, Whammer, another large gap, another large gap, then Amazing Rope Guy. lol. frankly! its notable that the show makes all these pairings appealing and gives individual appeal to each chara, even when charas overlap in personality traits...... tobey and 2brains are both mad scientists and have a lot of the same flairs but they have such different approaches!!! tobey is so grandious, rlly trying to seem like a mature adult, lots of hands-folded-behind-back, adjusting his glasses in intimidating ways, vs 2brains who is a little more burned out, tends to need to 'work up' to the sillier theatrics of villainy, willing to break character more to lvl with wordgirl... this is a simplest example i could go on for nearly every character. this is what being a fujoshi must be

god. the bj musical slides out of my brain a little more every day thank the lord. one day i could be fully free from its grasp.....
