After some philosophical musing from Leon, we cut to...a classic Akino fakeout.

An FBI office is talking about mysterious deaths linked to a Chinatown pet shop. "Orcot" yells that he'll take the case, and charges out the door. We see the Count D sign, but never get a look at anyone's face,--

46. Giant Robo (ova)

i think i went in with too high of expectations. its got definite style but the drama of the plot is just a bit underwhelming, retreading itself often. really gotta appreciate them going for as many fakeout deaths as they do though, i think every character gets one

Do you think Charlie Kirk would've thought Kirby and the World Beyond was a fakeout for Smash Bros?

DoD made some interesting attempts (American Nazis, KKK, Greek artifact, Longinus fakeout) but ultimately it crashed on the same shore as Abrams' Star Wars garbage: caring more about the aesthetics than the meaning

Like you set up a character who has a crush on another character spend multiple episodes building that up just for it to be a fakeout feels pretty strange to me.

//the energy level skyrocketed so hard when this happened

I got to witness the original fakeout like, 20 years ago, so this was an insane payoff for that long term investment

I'm kind of furious they didn't even get an "AN X-MAN DIES TONIGHT" cover copy fakeout out of it. It's a shock ending twist that doesn't even last four pages into the next issue

chewie fakeout death was baffling work

All those fakeout silver age Superman covers are finally justified

Goodbye Lara ending basically.

Goodbye Lara × Cosmic princess Kaguya meme. Let's be honest Goodbye Lara's director probably thinks CPK should've ended at the fakeout ending lol

No AI was used, just my stupid hands (and Clip Studio). References included in the last image.

(SEPTEMBER) DANG! (Season one, 2026)

There's a character in this show whose design I can only describe as "What if Wierd Al was a beautiful transgender woman?"

Rating: 3 fakeout Jared Leto deaths out of 6

I immediately scanned for jm’s 2019 fakeout bday video for jk only to fly around the world to surprise him and it’s not?? there?? Top 5 moment imo.

chrono cross does such a good fakeout with fate the concept and fate the being

they just don't make em like they used to

like sort of a fakeout? the buildup goes and goes and then it just crashes into a big breakdown for a tiny one before actually going into the drop?

Outplaying the fakeout brothers with milotic and indeedee is perhaps the single most satisfying thing in vgc
September 28, 2026 at 10:45 PM
yeah the pre-release stuff I heard feels like a fakeout, really scrambling my september roundup at the eleventh hour

makes sense holding the real fight for after ch2's fakeout. does that early skirmish cost the cast anything, or is it purely there to set up the escalation later?

False alarm (this time)! It was a book-long fakeout.

Annoying, but not as bad as I feared.
Man, I HATE IT when authors do the whole "two people who are more or less perfect for each other finally get together after a few books oops it's time to kill one of them off" thing. Like, I understand all the reasons why they do, but it hurts every time.

EUR/USD bulls are sweating today. Are we breaking parity or is this the ultimate fakeout? 📉👀

The first appearance of the MZ universe is actually in the Ultimate Universe, in an arc by Mark Millar and Greg Land called Crossover. It's a good fakeout--you think it's leading to a MU proper crossover, but no--it's zombies lying to Reed to trick him into getting them off the dead planet.

considering that there's been no explicit mention of it in the games, it'd be wild angsty if this is ghost's first run 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️👀

i predict they're gonna do a fakeout on the in-fighting and work together to go after makarov and mads mikkelsen

And then they had the GALL to not only do a fakeout death(twice) but also try and give him a last minute redemption out of nowhere? but also seemingly give up halfway through the execution while it still felt unearned to do the second fakeout?
