Just saw the premiere of TADC finale, and… I have a lot to say, but won’t say any spoilers because I’ve already dodged two weeks worth of them, so I won’t put anyone through the same struggle on here.
But here’s what I have in mind while I’m still processing everything.
I’ve been there since the very beginning back when it was only the pilot, and I was even there back when there were barely even fanart of the show because it was still so small and new. So witnessing everything from beginning to end has been an AMAZING experience.
I was genuinely crying while watching everything because the emotions were at their peak throughout the whole thing. Not just because of what I saw, but because I knew it was going to be the very last time I’ll ever see these silly characters and their adventures.
Writing Barbie’s story is going to be just as painful, if not more because it means going through the rollercoaster of emotions I felt watching every single episode all over again. But if it means experiencing this iconic and incredible ride over and over again, I’ll push through the pain and stay true to my nature as a writer.
What I want to say is, to the non-toxic side of the fandom who stuck through to enjoy Gooseworx’s show… Thank you all for being there to watch everything. I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say I’ll miss this show so, so much. I’ve already collected merch and stickers and even posters of this series, and now after three years, it’s all come to an end.
But the long ride was worth it.
I can only hope that the fandom still holds on strong now that it’s all over, no matter how much time passes. And that this show will forever go down in history as one of the greatest indie animation of all time.
