Macaque sounded so scared tho.
-
The golden cicada flying in during Tang's explaination was so good
-
The scene is about Mei but everyone keeps talking about literally anything but Mei,lol
-
I like that it was Tang who stopped Monkey King from killing Macaque.

Monkey King DOES care about his friends. But his oldest friends are gone now. And he is still learning to let new people in. Especially since he keeps making mistakes that wind up hurting those around him. He knows that he has been cocky in the past. That's why he is trying to protect everyone. Plus, the Monkey King started his journey on his own. Hatched from a stone with no parents or people to teach him how to control his powers. All he had was himself at the start and his self-confidence. He eventually got instructors to teach him how to do all the amazing things he can, but that wasn't until he was almost fully grown. Monkey King knows that he has hurt people who were close to him. So he is distancing himself from others to prevent any more harm from coming others way.

This is kind of what makes Wukong in this series interesting. Everyone holds him up as this hero, and even he might see himself as such, but that doesn't make him one. Even in his legends, he's as much a trouble maker as he is a saviour. In the Amnesia Rules episode, he even seems aware that he'd make a terrible mentor. But here he is, having taken on a leadership role. He's a mentor to MK. He's taken all these people on as his own responsibility. And he's bad at it. He's confronted with his mistake, and having to come to terms with that. That, even immortal and ancient as he is, his actions have consequences. That little look he gives Macaque speaks volumes. MK would never abandon his best friend. Would Wukong do the same? Maybe he doesn't know.

Also during the Spider Queen special episode, when the city was attacked, Mk responded immediately with something like; "The city is in danger!" while Monkey King said; "Oh no the fireworks!". Monkey King does care about protecting people but it's not his priority it seems.

0:38 the scarab is i think meant to be the main protagoniste in the journey to the west
-
Macaque does care but because of his pride and stuff he always manages to ruin a relationship. which is why he doesn't like getting too close to ppl now.

Stop drop and roll may ššš

If you put on captions tang says āI mean yeah my cat forced me to do itā in stead of macaque
-
Wukongā Wokongā
-
Power of friendship
-
I know theyāre the same voice actor body really does sound like Goku 0:15

Desperately telling myself every fan interpretation of a character is valid, it doesnāt genuinely impress me how people refuse to read In between the lines of a character that clearly hides behind masks of humor and has trouble letting people in due to past experiences of all his friends being dead or having abandoned him in some form, and him having hurt them in some way being a major reason of why he didnāt want Mk and co. To get involved in the first place. You know, thats why he said āyouāre not going, IāM going!ā At the very beginning of the journey and all, because he didnāt want them to get hurt-
-
Why nobody mentioning the GOLDEN FUCKIN CICADA?!!
-
āThatāsā¦ NOT a good planā gets me everytime
-
0:27 I can't stop repeating this part. That high pitched noise Macaque made was so hot- Side Note: Wukong, my guy, beating up Macaque isn't gonna solve anything. The damage has already been done.
-
0:39 Wow, that's not even subtle.
-
2:35 this is a real powerful shot. that pan to SWK when MK says "I'd never abandon her when she needs me" tells everything about what he KNOWS he did to Macaque
