So since Homestuck is apparently over I'm thinking of reading it from start to finish. I never picked it up before because I had enough things in my backlog that suffered from a hiatus.

How long will it take me to go through? What should I expect?

Don't expect much from the ending.

Just try to enjoy the ride there as much as you can before shit falls apart in during the last few dozen pages.

There might be a good epilogue since the author is apparently planning on one but, fuck, I don't know. Won't be for even more months.

>>81885861

Only semi-confirmed one would be Kanaya/Rose.

Otherwise, it's suggested Calliope/Roxy and Karkat/Dave.
>>
>>81885861
None of them
People will say that they did because they're standing together at the end, but we get no canon confirmation on any of the ships
Except for Davekat which Hussie confirmed in-person, but people will just say "It was a joke"
>>
The Gospel of Hussie is that he died for the sins of his people and rose again 3 days later. 40 days later he ascended into Heaven and will return again to judge the world and restore the creation. The time to repent and submit to the will of God and to believe that Hussie is the Messiah is now.

Dave was left sufficiently ambiguous that he could be with Karkat or Jade, if you're interpreting "two people in the same vicinity MUST be boning".

I'm doing a reread right now, after I'm gonna reread all of the other mspadventures then Homestuck again because this is what my life has become.

Still waiting on my Breath hoodie I ordered the other day. It's a shame it's not the right color, but oh well.

Rereading this gets better each time. You catch a few more tidbits, and I think by my fifth reread in the next month or so I'll fully understand it. This time so far (just starting Act 6) I finally realized that the person who was Jade's pen pal and helped work on Liv was Jake. Should've clicked when I first read HS then saw how Jake typed, but oh well.

it's a shame that Cascade is the climax because I love every part from WV: Ascend up until Cascade. I don't HATE Act 6, however the Alpha kids are kinda boring aside from Trickster, aside from Roxy. Roxy's cool.

After rereading it, I sort of realized why it was quick to fall off it's high horse. The most interesting and engaging meat of the story, sburb is neglected and shafted completely some part through the 5th act. As one of the strongest characters, the setting is severely neglected and by the end pretty much a non-factor. Everything about the planets and world building gets shoddy exposure save for the Genesis frog at the end, and even that we really only see the very end of. Is it any wonder this comic became a slogged out bore?

Don't listen to all the naysayers. The first part of the comic (Act 1) is a bit slow, but by Acts 2-5 are filled with intertwining plot threads along with really funny dialogue and great characters. Act 6 is where many readers feel like Homestuck dropped in quality, but I personally enjoyed a large part of it. The ending is really controversial, though.

Also, DO NOT. SKIP. THE INTERMISSION.

A really slow first 2 acts where you go "I don't get it, this is so boring, why do people like this?" then 2 acts of you going "holy shit this is the greatest comic of all time how have I waited until now to read it holy fuck!"

And then the shipping starts and its all downhill from there.

Surprisingly good writing, a LOT of seemingly-pointless-but-actually-important dialog, lots of callbacks and clever plot stuff, lots of humor, intentionally dated/obscure pop culture references, a shitload of characters, lots of cool flash animation, a ton of awesome music...

As for the length, it took me from November 22 to January 10 to read through it at a moderate pace (not counting the recent updates) yes I'm an "undertale made me read homestuck" baby

You're joking, right?
Bullying isn't funny most of the time and it isn't a good foundation for a relationship.
Of course, the retcon toned his teasing down somewhat, but I never got the impression Dave had a crush on Karkat.

It's pretty fucking long, peppered with Flash animations throughout. You should expect:
-A Zork-like tet adventure narrative for acts 1 through the first half of act 4
-A divisive first part of act 5 with one hell of a finale at the end of it
-An act 6 that goes really downhill and marks the death of the comic, its saving graces include a small similarity to the first acts, as well as everyone's favorite green asshole
-One disappointing act 7

I hope this helps fampire. I also recommend you read problem sleuth first before you touch homestuck. The latter likes to utilize lots of things from Hussie's older works.

Aranea contributes to the timeline pre-retcon, then fades into absolute obscurity.

a couple of years back I read the entire thing from start to the lastest page right after reading PS and really loving it. I never got involved with the fandom, never made a single post in HS general, it was just a webcomic I enjoyed.

I feel like it really became too big a phenomenom and at some point I realized it was pandering to someone who just wasn't me. I like adventure video games and old jRPGs and the 'strange cosmic adventures' vibe and that gradually got phased out in favor of relationships and trolls and fanservice and what not. I just couldn't bother anymore. I haven't read the ending yet and I don't think I'll ever do it since I barely remember the events leading up to it

Engaged, then. Semantics.

Also, Roxy's all about dick and Calliope has one. Confirmed, canon, etc. etc.

>>81897578
Remember that human romance is limited to red romance except when it wasn't, or that all leprechauns are gay except when Jones conveniently preferred Snowbar as a ship so wait no Crowbar's straight now. Cherubs aren't supposed to be social creatures at all, one experiencing and embracing loving friendship is unique enough that it's not unthinkable that red romance could blossom from that.

And they seem to have very specific circumstances under which they assume mating form but they can get turned on by any old thing. Caliborn miraculously didn't destroy their home when he was openly jerking himself off. At worst Calliope at some point in the far future will seriously pine for some red dude cherub and fly off for a few decades of satisfactory blackrom mating then come back to her loving wife who understands it's just a silly alien thing.

I'd even be perfectly fine with John and Roxy dating for sex (even just plain dating) as long as she returns home to her loving wife at the end of the day. They can be open and make allowances for each others' alien needs while still being a legitimate pairing.

I think Roxy and Calliope having to reconcile biological differences while maintaining a happy, healthy longterm relationship is super cute and interesting.

Or who knows, maybe they're all up for a 3-way relationship and John's lucky enough to get the best girls while Roxy's lucky enough to get her ideal dude and lady.

Someone explain the while lusus deal with trolls. I know that their blood determines their caste and can give them abilities but what confuses me is the lusus aspect. Specifically, the idea of trolls of the same blood colour each having a lusus of the same kind.

Like, Vriska had to kill trolls in order to feed her lusus which probably affected her and was a part of her becoming this bitchy glory hound she is today. What about other Cerulean trolls who would also have a spider lusus and would presumably also have to kill to survive? Wouldn't that just mean that there are hundreds, if not thousands of trolls exactly like Vriska?

Another thing, Terezi states that her lusus was distant until she became blind and only then did her lusus take her in and teach her how to 'see' the world. What about other trolls of Terezi's caste? Are they just shunned unless they become blind?

What my issue is that it seems impossible for there to be any kind of individuality in the trolls world.

>>
>>81898823
Lususes presumably vary in species and aren't limited to one per blood color.
Also, they are caretakers, but they do not talk or communicate in significant ways.
The influence a lusus has on a troll's personality is very limited.

>>81898783

How is one allowed to 8e raised 8y a dragon in this era? Let alone one of such middling 8lood, the sickly hue of a gutless civil servant. Those of her caste are typically pleased to mount a sluggish choler8ear, or some 8rainless squawking spleenfowl during petty expeditions to plaster seizure notices on gam8lignant property.
Terezi's dragon lusus is actually pretty unusual, apparently.

I'd imagine the only bloodtype with only one kind of lusus is Karkat's mutant red, because the Signless/Sufferer's followers specifically bred a lusus for the coming of his offspring. Maybe there would be offshoots of this single kind of crab lusus if they were given enough time to evolve. Who knows.

It still feels like that the trolls characters embody their sign so much that it'd be impossible to create a character of the same blood colour that doesn't seem like a Blonic of the original. Granted, Hussie wasn't planning on showing more than two trolls of the same caste so he could ramp it up with the symbolism.

All of the humans in homestuck were white.

Now if you mean making them Caucasian, I wouldn't complain as much, because they all look light skinned, judging by the mostly monochrome palette they all have. It would be easy for someone to assume that they were supposed to be caucasian.

I wasn't even the guy you originally responded to. I just saw you essentially trying to throw out a few 'RACIST!'s because someone thought it was odd to make one character suddenly black.
This is the same fucking 'If race is so unimportant than why make X black' and 'If race is so unimportant than why NOT make X black'
