Tropers: Arcadiarika
Describe Arcadiarika here.

Well, if you must... ^__^;

Author (wannabe-author, really), artist, shy. Prior to joining, I was a lurker.

I show examples of the following tropes:

  • Aborted Arc: The "trapped in a dimensional rift" arc in the Super Sentai Vs. Power Rangers liveblog would have lasted entirely in it. Unfortunately, as writer Sean Akizuki rewrote the chapters and deleted a few, that arc will not happen entirely; rather, it continued in the liveblog of The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods Part II, where they fought against a demon who's meant to be the representation of Thomas—and, with my help, won.
  • Accentuate the Negative: Averted whenever I find something good or funny. My positive liveblogs of Power Rangers: Lightspeed Rescue and My Little Eye, along with any moments from any liveblog do count.
  • Breather Episode: In the middle of the intensity of The Prayer Warriors: Battle With the Witches, I made a Breather Liveblog in the form of reviewing My Little Eye. I even hung a lampshade on it, stating that I wanted to liveblog something I liked because the Prayer Warriors series was sapping my will to be happy.
    • After The Prayer Warriors: Threat of Satanic Commonism, an attempted breather episode was Super Sentai Vs. Power Rangers. Realizing that it would take a while to do the "trapped in a dimensional rift" plot, this was scrapped. Despite this, the few chapters I liveblogged there didn't have much rage; The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods Part II easily made up for it.
  • Crossover: In the Pooh's Adventures of Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie liveblog, Carter Grayson shows up.
  • Every Episode Ending: "This has been (title of the liveblog, whether long or short)! Until next time, see ya!" And a stinger of some sort, in relation to how I feel at the end of it.
  • Gender Bender: At the end of the first installment of The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods liveblog, I'm turned into a man.
  • Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: The Kickboxing Academy liveblog's installment titles follow an Excited Episode Title! theme naming. Like Denji Sentai Megaranger.*
    • In the liveblog for Pooh's Adventures of Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, the installment titles are named after various Power Rangers songs.
    • Each title in The Prayer Warriors: Battle With the Witches liveblog contains a blatant reference (or a partially blatant reference) to the first twelve Power Rangers series.
    • In the My Little Eye liveblog, each installment title is named and retitled by Carter's focus episodes ("Trial by Fire" becomes "Trial by Jerkassery", "A Face from the Past" becomes "Names from the Past", "Yesterday Again" becomes "Twisted Minds Again", and "Web War" becomes "Reality War"). Also counts as an Actor Allusion.
    • Each title in Super Sentai Vs. Power Rangers either follows a Sentai series' episode-naming structure or retitled after another episode title to fit the theme.
  • Reference Overdosed: My liveblogs. The references themselves run the gamut from Tokusatsu to pop culture; i.e. music, video games, and the like.
  • Running Gag: From the liveblog of Power Rangers: Lightspeed Rescue on, I always begin the liveblog with this statement.
    "(insert some sort of greeting here). From the batshit insane mind that brought you the livebloggening(s) of (a list of things I liveblogged, either finished or in-progress) comes...(a description of what I'll liveblog)."
    • "Excuse me. I have a wall to demolish." Every single time a very dumb moment happens in anything I liveblog, I say this.
    • The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods liveblog has this gem: "Hey, did you know that (insert something that the author said)? No? Well, you do now, because the writer said so!"
    • In the liveblog for My Little Eye, anytime I try to talk about Matt, I end up referring back to Carter Grayson. Over the course of the liveblog, though, it's taken to the extreme, to the point where I declared that Matt is Carter from another dimension. Then those comparisons are thrown out the window when Matt starts to kill.
    • See Shout Out.
  • Screwed by the Network: The Lightspeed Rescue liveblog has been postponed indefinitely due to the fact that there are no clips of the videos on YouTube, and I refuse to go to any other downloading site (not sure if there are any bugs, for one).
    • Averted with the liveblogging of The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods Part II bonus chapter. After it was deleted off Fanfiction.net "thanks" to Thomas, I reposted the story in sections.
  • Shout Out: Expect me to make some form of Actor Allusions, sneak in allusions to Tokusatsu, or create some odd reference or rewrite scenes in the form of something else.
    • In the Kickboxing Academy reviews, whenever Danny fights, I played the Power Rangers in Space theme song and, in the tournament, "Go Fly Win". Also doubles as an Actor Allusion.
    • In the liveblog of Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue's first episode, "Operation Lightspeed", I remarked on what Carter was, but then I noted that it was the wrong canon. Where did it come from, you ask? We Are Our Avatars, a game I'm currently in.
      • ONORE JOHNSON-SAMA!*
      • And for the hell of it, in the liveblog of "Trial by Fire", I wrote the decision of whether Carter should rescue the citizens or put the flames out before it reaches the gasoline in the form of a Choose Your Own Adventure.
    • In the liveblog of A Light in the Forest: The Legend of Holly Boy, I renamed each installment part by basing on either an established episode title of a Super Sentai series and rewriting it to fit the situation going on in each installment or following the Idiosyncratic Episode Naming for another series.
      • Like Linkara in Atop The Fourth Wall, I completely broke down after realizing that I compared "Time for Lightspeed" favorably to Pooh's Adventures. Complete with a different Sanity Slippage Song, played when my sanity slipped.
  • Shout Out Theme Naming: To characters in the form of Actor Allusions. You'll know them when you'll see them.
  • Shown Their Work: At times, I'm pretty good at this. It really shows my true colors whenever I mention about actors or what happens behind the scenes. The infamous kissing scene in Kickboxing Academy is a good choice, complete with links to sources.
  • Something Completely Different: In the (previous) liveblog of the Lightspeed Rescue episode "The Mighty Mega-Battles", I wrote the entire thing as if it was a Real Person Fic, using the names of the portrayers of the Rangers throughout.
    • Unlike most of the liveblogs, Power Rangers: Lightspeed Rescue and My Little Eye are mostly-positive liveblogs, though they do have some snarking here and there.
  • Trilogy Creep: After promising that I would do just the three Prayer Warriors stories, I was told to do a fourth one.
  • Tsundere: Type B most of the time. For my liveblogs, specifically my Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue one, it's a Type A. Towards a certain actor.
  • Writer Revolt: Even though it was later subverted with me admitting that it's my own fault for doing this, The Prayer Warriors: The Evil Gods Part II liveblog slowly becomes this, telling those who wanted me to liveblog it, simply put...
    "And to those who were like, "oh, you should liveblog this because he went off the deep end!", seriously, the hell were you thinking?"
    • It should be noted that this was spurred by my readers thinking that my reviews are the Gospel, especially when it comes to bad stuff. Another reason for this is because of literally so many of the comments stating that the writer's a Troll—another thing that I was sick of seeing, to the point where I blatantly stated that anyone who makes such comments will be ignored. Why? Because I don't focus on whether or not he's a Troll. I focus more on the contents themselves.
