I feel like a big problem with the TMA fandom is that they heavily prioritize the fandom version of characters over the canon version (kind of like the batfamily but worse because at least comic fandoms have the excuse of poor continuity). Like Martin is the uwu tea making little guy, Tim is the funny comedic relief who tragically dies, Jon is completely rational and serious and uptight, and oh yeah there are female characters I guess...

yayaya and esp with like the fact they’ve all basically got like basically enforced characterisation and designs despite the fact they obviously… don’t have a canon appearance. like literally none of them. like i don’t HATE how there’s a standardized appearance for pretty much all the mains but it does kinda restrict things at times 😨
