Be aware that if you are not a Comic Book Reader these are kind of Spoilers for the next chapter… So be careful to not keep reading.
Anyways, after watching the episode, something caught my eye in regard of certain character´s physique.
I´m not against any change or creative decision they make in the show as long as it benefits the story or visual development of the show.
But it seemed pretty odd to use this kind of body type for a member of a race that´s usually depicted by being incredibly in top shape. I mean, our guy “Lucan” is pretty much in the standard Viltrumite shape in the comics, Why change it in the show ?
And of course, this is not by any means any kind of body-shaming or something along these lines… it´s a genuine doubt that i have in regards of this particular change.
The OP was asking a question, can we not ask questions to learn and express our thoughts?
Did I say that any point? I gave an answer to the question, I also called it as I saw it. They expressed their thoughts, and I expressed mine. “Top Shape” is not actually the dehydrated, starved and overworked Bodybuilder that most action stars chase after, that Omni man is a drawn example of. Just because someone says “I’m not doing this thing” does not mean they are not doing it. Movie stars, comics and animation, models, etc, they’ve skewed a lot of people’s idea of what healthy looks like.
Lucan is a space alien that can fly and generate his own leverage off of, nothing about his powers imply a bit of weight would slow them down, so why shouldn’t a couple of them be enjoying the food and resources they are scouring the galaxy for? I thought it was cool to see them inch a bit away from it and add body diversity to an alien species, which is realistic, and got annoyed by the dozens of people I’ve seen get mad cause “its unrealistic, fat people are unhealthy and the Viltrumites wouldn’t accept them.” as if actual strong people in real don’t have fat. It makes him stand out and look badass, imo more badass than just another six pack would have.
