That's an interesting twist to things...particulary her rejecting BB's advances

Still, the BB/Raven 'shipper in me is a lil' sad right now

*BubblyShell22* · 08-16-2013, 08:06 AM

Oooh, I can't wait to see Terra again. I always liked her with BB and thought they made a sweet couple. Too bad she won't accept his advances.

Luigiperps · 08-16-2013, 09:12 AM

Oh Robin

He can always make me laugh.

See, I've never subscribed to the whole "Terra is perfect for BB" mentality, mainly because the people who follow it don't really understand the source material all that much. Terra NEVER cared for BB in the original Judas Contract comics storyline, she was having a very passionate affair with Deathstroke (Slade), and never cared about any of the Titans either, she was irredemably rotten to the core and died with a lot of hate still in her heart.

Unfortunatly, fanboys who became writers just figured "Oh, Terra was never THAT bad, she didnt know any better, and she could be a goodie-goodie if the key was turned ever so slightly THIS way", and we got a lot of her in the 90s, but nobody really cared much until the cartoon made her best known story relevant again. At least the writers kept Terra's fate ambigious and even had the balls to have her not even freindzone Gar in "Things Change", but to downright drop him out of her life completly. That to me should show the fanboys she never really cared for him in "that way", at least not in a long-term sense.

That's why BB and Raven's relationship always struck me as the better one. They knew each other far, FAR longer than Gar ever really knew Terra, were teammates that looked out for each other, had a sizzling love/hate chemistry with one another and were privy to each other's secrets, strengths and weaknesses. I'm still glad that just before the New 52 rebooted things, DC allowed BB and Raven to grow up and get together and close out the original Titans continuity.

SWEET!!! I can't wait to see Terra!

It is too bad she's rejecting BB's advances.

Well, okay, in that sense,you're right, but I never read the comics and only ever saw the show, so that's what I'm basing my opinions on, though I'm definitely not against the BB/Raven pairing by a long shot. I feel those two could work just as well as Robin/Starfire. But for some reason, I've always liked Terra and was always intrigued by her story and her reluctance to get close to anyone. Still, I can't wait to see her in this version and to see what might happen with her.

Luigiperps · 08-16-2013, 01:03 PM

because of teen titans go, i spent three hours making this robin gif!!!!!!!! (With "He Drives Us Bats" in the background

) I love this show that much!

Yeah, I wasnt venting at you Bubbly, it's just I'm always browsing forums with all these fangirls who proclaim Terra and Gar as being "perfect" for each other, and refuse to see it any other way. At least TTG seems to be going in a different direction with her and her reluctance around BB is refreshing. I am annoyed Gar's obsession with her is back and I'm not expecting there to be any real dramatic resolution because it's a comedy show.

Robin/Starfire is actually a hell of a lot nicer in the cartoon than it is in the comics, where they have been on/off so many times that it's basicly turned Starfire into a slut.

*BubblyShell22* · 08-16-2013, 04:35 PM

Oh, I know that, and I understand where you're coming from there. Still, it'll be interesting to see where Terra is in this show.

Luigiperps · 08-20-2013, 07:01 PM

So, what'd you guys think?

*Donatello19* · 08-20-2013, 07:08 PM

Haven't watched it yet, but I've got it recorded..

*Donatello19* · 08-20-2013, 09:49 PM

Just finished watching it...probably my favorite episode so far! It's one of the first with an actual climax....and

Spoiler:

There were a lot of funny moments...but my favorite was Cyborg and Starfire telling Raven that she's jealous

Terra was awesome! I think I actually prefer her as a villain. Doesn't seem like we'll be seeing her again for a while though, which is a shame

All in all a really great episode!

*Shark_Blade* · 08-21-2013, 02:42 AM

Terra! Can't wait to watch it!

This universe probably doesn't jive with the old toon, but no matter. I look forward to it.

Awesome episode. Yep, looks like BB/Raven is official from Raven's side with that little smile she gave. I loved it and how Starfire, Robin, and Cyborg all stated she was jealous. Yep, I like Terra as a villain, too, and I think she was talking to Slade. I wish he'd be in this show, too. What an awesome episode.

*TurtleTitan97* · 08-21-2013, 11:01 AM

Awesome episode, I laughed a lot when the Titans thought Raven was jealous. Also, Robin's a terrible singer.

I might be in the minority, but I dislike that the writers essentially ripped out all the goodness that was in Terra and basically turned her into the same heartless villainess that she was in the comics. I would have at least liked to see her have some form of feelings towards Beast Boy.

Well i guess that makes two of us, because i feel the exact same way. God, it's Powerpuff Girls Z all over again.

Anyone else think its funny that starfire has a plush robin on her bed.

*BubblyShell22* · 08-23-2013, 08:13 AM

I never noticed that before. Good catch. Yeah, I do think it's funny.

Posts: 22,513	Spoiler: Wow, I know BB and Raven has been canon in the comics for a while now (they're even hinting at it in the New 52), but to finally see the cartoon go that route is awesome And I was wrong about there being no dramatic resolution too...even bigger plus. I have grossly underestimated this show, never again will I do that, this is really coming into its own, I almost want this to be an actual direct continuation instead of the connection being vauge __________________ Spider-Man: The Rescue Spider-Man: The Galloping Cat Spider-Man: Scarlet Mirror Doctor Who: Child of the Daleks
