I wrote this letter a thousand times but, I could find the right words. However, I do want to say that ever since the Sycorax incident and moving away, I kinda lost a lot passion for bio-tech; I’ve been a little paranoid and little traumatized.
My parents have more overprotective than they usually were but, how could I blame them after what happened that night. A lot of things changed but, not for the worst, in fact, for the better. I love my new home. I have a bigger bedroom, a nice neighborhood.
My grandma moved in with us to help; I love my grandma so much that I got excited when she decided to move in.
I also made two new friends close to my age; they’re fun, nice, funny, and supportive.
My new life is great and my family have gotten closer than ever. I am going to miss San Fransokyo, especially SFIT because, it’s where I get to meet my first real friend, you, Hiro Hamada.
Sincerely,
Karmi

Before season 3 is going to start, I decided to make a headcannon about Karmi and her new home after City of Monsters. I like to think that Karmi is doing really well in her new home with her parents yet still misses SFIT and decided to write a letter to Hiro because, he’s like her first friend ever.
Hey guys, when I look up at Tumblr about season 3 of Big Hero 6, I decided to look up it’s wiki page and the description on season 3. Guess Noodle Burger Boy will be the main antagonist for this season (or for an arc at least). I’m kinda excited for this because Karmi is coming back.

Some early designs I did for Obake, the main villain in Big Hero Six: the series. Some of my ideas made it through to final. Props to the team for making him look great!
I was lucky enough to do some early designs for Globby for the Big Hero 6 Series. These were pretty early and it felt like we were trying mostly to figure out how this dude will work. The final design looks great and I’m happy i got to be a tiny part of it.
Watched the new episodes of Big Hero 6 the Series today with my daughter and we loved it. I was lucky enough to do some early development for the show. Here’s my first pass layout and color treatment for good luck alley. More Big Hero stuff soon.
Some thumbnail sketches I did for disney tv’s big hero 6 series of good luck alley. I had a blast working on this location! Color stuff and some character work i did on the show coming soon.
There was a low thrumming sound in the air that grew louder and louder as they neared the university campus. It reminded her of thunder, but it was more rhythmic and.. metallic? That wasn’t the best description for it, but it was all she could think of to describe it.
Soon, other sounds joined in with the thrumming noise. She assumed that it was music playing… there was certainly a melodic quality to the combined sounds, but it wasn’t like any music that she had ever heard before.
It was faster, more rhythmic, more aggressive, and louder than anything she had ever experienced. She couldn’t even recognize the instruments that were playing, though they all had that slight ‘metallic’ quality to them, the same as the thumping bass, that now was so loud that it resonated in her chest.
Her and her friends followed the crowd as they shared confused looks.
It was now dark out, and all the oddly dressed people that they had seen parading around all afternoon were also heading towards this party.
Some of them carried multi-colored glowing sticks, or wore jewelry that flashed with brightly colored lights. A lot of people had those same thin boxes that Aunt Cass had used, and these had glowing screens as well. They would peer at these screens, as if reading something upon them, or talking into them with disembodied voices answering back. A few pointed the boxes at themselves or their friends, struck a pose, and then a bright flash of light would surround them.
Not that anyone needed the light. The city of San Fransokyo shown as bright as day under street lamps, lighted windows, glowing headlights from the horseless carriages, and various Halloween decorations that blinked with strings of lights. None of which burned with flame. It was as if the whole town ran on magic.
'Or science’, Rapunzel thought.
She had assumed at first that it had to be magic just because of how fantastical everything was here, but now she was beginning to question that assumption.
She knew magic well. She herself was magic.
While she didn’t always understand it, it was still an integral part of her, since birth, and ever since leaving the tower, she constantly came across it. Each and every time she could sense it. It almost tingled, at the back of her scalp, at the tips of her roots, like a shiver or a chill, but not quite. She really had no words to explain it, but it was almost like the magic would pull her towards whatever new magical object or creature they came across and it towards her, like a magnet. And nowhere was the attraction stronger than when facing the black rocks and the moonstone that created them.
Yet, she felt no such magnetic attraction when surrounded by this city’s wonders.
"Oh excuse me, can I take a picture of your costume?“ A voice called out, startling Rapunzel.
It was a tall man, dressed inexplicably as a canister of oatmeal.
"Oh… I’m sorry,” Rapunzel tried to politely excuse herself, “but we really don’t have the time to pose fo-”
"Oh it won’t take but a moment. I’m gathering images for a scrapbook that I’m making for a friend.“ The tall man explained and held up another one of those thin boxes and pointed at them. “Say cheese.”
"Why?“ Lance asked.
The other man frowned… "Uhmm… it’s just an expression… just smile real wide for me.”
Everyone did so, and a bright light flashed from the box.
"There, I got it.“ The man cheered, his own smile returning. "It turned out pretty good. You wanna see?”
He flipped the box around to show them the picture. It was a near realistic image, even more detailed than the most famous royal paintings hanging in the castle halls back home.
"Hey, look at that Blondie!“ Eugene enthused. "Instant portrait! Oh can ya take another of my profile?” He asked the man as he struck another pose.“ This is my good side.”
Rapunzel fought back the urge to roll her eyes. Usually she found her boyfriend’s antics amusing, but the weight of their mission was bearing down upon them. “As amazing as this man’s artistic skills are, I’m afraid we really don’t have the time, Eugene. We need to find Varian before it gets too late.”
She began to pull him away when the tall man interrupted.
"You guys are looking for Varian?“
Rapunzel felt a rush of adrenaline as her stomach flip flopped. "You know him?”
"Sure, I know him. He’s one of my best friends.“ The taller guy laughed. "How do you know him?”
"Oh… ummm… we’re researching some of the same things he is.“ Rapunzel quickly said. "and we have a major scientific discovery to show him.”
It wasn’t a complete lie, but after their run-ins with Aunt Cass and the police officer, Rapunzel was now wary of giving out too much information.
"Really? You guys are studying portal tech too?“ The man asked. "Where are you from?”
"Coro-“
"Europe.” Eugene interrupted Lance. “That’s right, we came all the way from Europe, just to talk to him about portals, but we have to return home tonight. His aunt told us he’d be here.”
"Oh, Aunt Cass sent you.“ The man smiled with recognition.
"Is she your aunt too?” Lance asked.
The guy laughed, “No, but we all treat her like she was. Anyways, Varian’s busy playing on stage right now, but if you’re willing to wait, the band should go on break in a few minutes.”
"Oh well, thank you… uh…“
"Noel, but friends call me Wasabi.” The man answered Eugene with a smile. “So, what’s this breakthrough you’ve discovered?”
All three of the Coronians shared awkward looks.
"Well, ummm….“ Eugene stuttered… "what do you know about projections?”
"Oh quite a lot. I’m a fiber optics major.“ Wasabi explained.
"Oh wonderful, so you’ve heard about long range projection then?” Eugene bluffed.
Wasabi looked thoughtful. “Long range… you mean like for communication? You you’d have to make some pretty big advancements in holographics then.”
Eugene snapped his fingers. “Holographics, yes! What if we told you that we found a means to travel by using holographics. Project yourself to wherever you want to go without ever leaving the comfort of your own home.”
Wasabi looked thoughtful again. “Hmmm… what would you use as projectors? They would have to be portable somehow… unless… Are you using hard light technology as a base or traditional fiber optics? Do you need a solid surface to project onto, or are the portable projectors concave to reflect the light and hold the images steady so as not to project the particle beams out into the stratosphere?”
"Uhh… yes!“ A dumbfounded Eugene stalled, "Yes, to all of that. You’re a real smart guy. I can tell you really know your stuff.”
"Ah, well lasers are my specialty.“ Wasabi blushed. "Man, I would love to chat with you all night about projectors, but Tadashi’s birthday is tomorrow and I need to get all these pictures taken tonight so I can finish his present. Do you guys know Tadashi as well?”
"Umm.. no, we haven’t met yet.“ Rapunzel honestly answered.
"Oh, well, he’s Varian’s brother and is running this whole event. If he’s not working at the haunted house attraction you can either find him at the concession stand or the ticket booth. Just tell him who you are, and I’m sure he can take you backstage to meet with Varian.”
Seeing their chance, Eugene started to push his friends along, “We’ll do that. Thank you.” He lied.
"Nice meeting you.“ Lance called back.
"Yeah, nice meeting you too.” Wasabi waved after, before asking another couple of teens for their pictures as well.
Rapunzel couldn’t resist casting another glance back at the curious young man. He had described himself as Varian’s ‘best friend’, and he certainly had seemed friendly. But so had Varian, when she had first met him. She wondered if this Wasabi knew how volatile Varian could really be.
Eugene had a different opinion. “Man, this whole place is full of eggheads. No wonder Varian decided to settle down here.”
They turned a corner and started to head up a sloping hill. The paved sidewalk was trimmed with flower beds and there were rolling fields of freshly cut green grass that stretched out and led to the various buildings that made up the campus. They were impressive looking structures as well, full of character and stately importance. They weren’t as massive as some of the mile long high towers that they had seen in downtown, but they were still very large, just more wide than tall.
The university was more spacious than the previous city and so the buildings had more room to spread out, and its inhabitants were more free to roam the lawns. Rapunzel spotted many couples cuddling under the large oaks trees dotted about or laying on the grass wrapped in each other’s arms as they used their coats for blankets.
Rapunzel longed to find a more secluded spot and just hug Eugene and enjoy the night. Anything to avoid the nervous churning of her stomach, but she needed to keep going. Corona and Cass were counting on them to succeed.
They crossed a short wooden bridge over a babbling brook that fell into a shimmering pond that reflected back the rainbow of lights surrounding them in a whirl of color. The pond surrounded another impressive building, this one with a red tile roof and a black marble monument that stood in the center of the pebbled courtyard in front.
Rapunzel involuntarily shivered. The black stone jutting out of the ground, breaking up the serene landscape around it, reminded her of the horrors she had faced with infamous spikes that ravaged her home. Though she was sure this particular rock had been placed there intentionally by people, though she knew not why.
"Ooh! Ooh! I see him!“ Lance shouted, breaking Rapunzel out of her gloomy thoughts.
She looked to where he was pointing. There was Varian, up on stage, playing what looked to be a guitar. Only the sound that came from it was more jagged and, once again, metallic like, than any guitar she had ever heard before.
He hopped around, completely lost in the music as he played, oblivious to their arrival. He wore a purple cape, and a dark blue vest with a high collar. He had leather garters on the sleeves of the white linen blouse he wore underneath, and his neatly pressed pants actually fit him for once. His polished black shoes trapped in time to the rhythm of the backing drums and his signature striped hair fell across his face, his bangs threatening to block his line of sight at any moment, but somehow never quite getting in the way.
"I wonder who he’s supposed to be dressed as?” Eugene questioned out loud, and Rapunzel only shrugged her shoulders.
It just looked like he was wearing regular clothes to her, but she found out that even regular clothes could be costumes on this night.
Yet it wasn’t his choice of dress that had snagged her attention. Her heart pounded in her chest as she intently watched his face. From far away, he looked just like the little boy she had met all those years ago; silly, carefree, and happy to help, and not the vengeful rebel that glared at her with such crippling hate.
Another girl joined him on the stage with a guitar of her own and he flashed her the biggest smile. She wore a black leather jacket and had short purple hair. Rapunzel has never seen hair that short on a girl before. Half her head was practically shaven.
Behind them was yet another teen with a set of drums. She had her dark brown hair tied up in a ponytail and wore a jacket similar to the first girl, only hers was a deep blue and made from the same material as the pants she wore.
Then beside her, another girl, with dark curly hair, began to sing. She wore a fairy costume with wings, and was playing on the smallest piano Rapunzel had ever seen.
They were all clearly very talented artists, even if the music was a little too loud, and had circumstances been different Rapunzel probably would have jumped right in with the crowd of dancing people that hung out in front of the stage. Even Lance was snapping his fingers in time to the music.
"It’s certainly different, but it’s got a nice beat.“ He mused.
"Different is right?” Eugene complained, his hands over ears. “How is this even music? It’s just noise.”
"Naw man, you just gotta chill and go with the flow of the rhythm.“ Lance said as he started to shake his hips.
Eugene was not amused. "Will you please stop dancing like that? We gotta figure out a way to get backstage and talk to Varian.”
Rapunzel barely noticed their argument. She was still staring at the goggle-wearing teen. A million scenarios ran through her mind. Would he try to fight them? Insult them? Would he call that chief policeman on them, using one of those thin boxes? What if he was sorry? What if he had a change of heart?
Rapunzel doubted this, but she remained hopeful anyways. After all he seemed happy, for the moment, and perhaps being in this new kingdom had given him a new outlook on things? Either way, the one thing he couldn’t do was refuse to help them, otherwise they were all doomed.
Rapunzel was so lost in her thoughts, and so fixated on the stage before her, that she hardly watched where she was going and very nearly ran into a table.
Fortunately, a voice stopped her from walking through the display.
"Hi! Welcome to SFIT’s Fright Night. Tickets for the haunted house are five dollars apiece.“
Rapunzel blinked in surprise at the girl who had spoken. She was another teenager, with long straight brown hair that was cut right at the shoulders. She wore a red and blue suit of armor covered in white stars. She didn’t look much older than Varian. In fact most of the people here seemed to be near Rapunzel’s own age or younger.
Eugene quickly stepped in to navigate the situation. "Hi. I’m sorry but we don’t have any currency on us. We’re actually here to meet with someone. But thank you anyways, miss…”
"Just call me Karmi.“ The girl smiled. "Who are you here to meet with? Are you here to help out with the event, or just expecting more to join your group later?”
"We’re wanting to talk to Varian. The guy up on stage right now.“ Lance said.
Karmi shrugged. "Well, they’ve been playing for a while now. They should take a break soon. I can’t get you backstage, but knowing Varian he’ll probably use his break to dance with Honey Lemon.” She gave a little snort.
"Dance with honey and lemon?“ Eugene echoed with confusion.
This caused the girl to laugh harder. "Honey Lemon. She goes to school here with us. Everyone knows that she and Varian are 'a thing.’ Everyone except Honey Lemon herself that is.”
Karmi good naturally rolled her eyes as she imparted this juicy bit of gossip.
'Uhh… huhhh…’ Eugene slowly answered. “And where might we find this, "Honey Lemon.’”
"Oh she’s running the concession stand with Gogo.“
The girl pointed to a couple of tables covered in food where two women were selling treats. One was tall with strawberry blonde hair and wore bunny ears on top of her head. The other was short and had equally short black hair with a purple stripe in her bangs. She seemingly wore no costume, just a short sleeved blouse and those blue britches people tended to favor in this city.
Rapunzel and her friends shared a questioning look at each other. They couldn’t tell which girl was meant to be which.
However, before they could go over there to ask, a new voice joined the conversation.
"Hey Karmi, Tadashi sent me over here to give you a break.”
They all turned to see a young man with black hair and dark eyes, dressed as a spider. Lance let out a little shriek before fainting. Eugene had to catch him.
"Err.. my friend here, uh, has acute acrophobia.“ He explained.
Karmi took her notebook and started to fan the unconscious man with it. Lance soon came back around.
The young gentleman who had caused the incident looked a little sheepish. "Sorry for that.”
"It’s okay Sam.“ Karmi said. "After all, what’s Halloween without a few scares?” She stopped fanning Lance and pulled out her wallet. “Speaking of which I haven’t walked through the attraction yet. Do you guys wanna go? I’ll pay.”
"Oh, thank you, but you don’t have to go out of your way just for us.“ Rapunzel tried to politely turn the girl down.
"Oh it’s no problem.” Karmi insisted. “I get a discount since I’m working the event, and besides it’s no fun going through a haunted house by yourself. And that should pass the time while you’re waiting for Varian to go on his break.”
Rapunzel thought the matter over as she cast another glance back towards the stage. The band had finished one song and were starting on another. This time it was Varian’s turn to sing. They played a creepy melody about a headless horseman, suitable for the macabre night. Rapunzel shuddered. It was the first time she had heard his voice in over a year and a half, and she found herself mentally retreating from it.
okay but everyone saying they hated big hero 7 entirely because they don’t like richardson mole is whack. just because you don’t like one character doesn’t mean you should hate the whole episode. have all the opinions you want but those too things have no correlation. i dont like the mad jacks, i find them annoying, but did that ruin the impatient patient?? no.
Agreed. The episode was good, but not the best in my books. (That one is a tie between “The Impatient Patient” and “Small Hiro One”, with “Mini Max” as a close second.)
ID E S P I S E Richardson, but his presence didn’t make the episode any less interesting.
Though this episode was supposed to expand on Fred and Richardson’s hatred for each other, I feel as though Barb and Juniper stole the spotlight.
This episode captures the logical fact that Mother-Daughter relationships aren’t all sunshine and rainbows. There are fights, silent treatments, and a whole bunch of other things that can cause tension. But in the end, they see each other through and still love one another to no limits. (At least that’s what I saw.)
Anyway, don’t bash the episode for the fact that an annoying character was part of the main focus.
(Also, I love Barb. She wants what’s best for Juniper, even if what she thinks the best is crime dancing. She may be a villain, but she’s a good mom too.)
yes fam i will literally stan high voltage until the day i die
So Liv Amara did have something to do with Knox’s mutation. Begs to wonder if she’s done the same to her other investors and may try to do so with Mrs. Frederickson.
I’m loving Big Hero 6: The Series, and I say my favourite villain has to be Obake, alongside Momakase. When you think about it, He’s kind of like Slade from Teen Titans.
April 19, 1905: My friends in the arts know nothing about my scientific endeavours. They would not understand what drives me, I’m not sure I understand. Until I can be certain of success, I decided it best to keep my scientific work secret.
August 27, 1905:I’ve begun studying localized mutations in the Orchidaceae family found around Muirahara Woods. Traditionally small and and pink or purple, the archetypal flowers of the amitostigma keiskei often reach no more than 1mm long and 4-5mm wide with square-shaped, evenly spaced petals. However ideal growing condition (the concentration of moisture in the soil and particular breeds of____land moss that thrive the middle elevations of Muirahara Woods) has given rise to some flower sizes of 10-11mm as well cider, much more closely oriented central petals. These isolated populations of the amitostigma keiskei have also resulted in some plants with completely white flowers, as well…
…As those boasting distinct patterns of spots, magenta lips, color gradation in the throat, and a gentle rounding of the traditionally square-tipped petals. Can these flowers still be considered the same species, or has evolution in this distinct climate given birth to a new orchid completely? Further research is required to verify.
September 28, 1905: Each and every day, mankind seems to be racing towards greater and more complex discoveries. A mere two days ago, a much-anticipated paper published on special relativity has potentially opened up an entirely new framework for all of physics, and could perhaps change our existing concepts of space and time.
November 11, 1905:While my research has been fascinating, my isolation grows more stifling.
April 3, 1906:I’ve made a ground-breaking discovery too big to hide! Indeed I believe I have created a true light for all mankind, one that shall pave the way for generations of scientists and innovators to come. But in order to gain the attention of those whose authority and support I need to further my research, a demonstration is in order. In this vein, have made the necessary preparations and used every resource at my disposal to plan a truly unforgettable event! Tomorrow I will show the city and change the world!
i just realized that since big hero 6 takes place in 2032, if it was real hiro’s parents just recently died or would soon because they died when he was 3 and he would be turning 4 in 2022
let’s not think about the 2019-2022 pandemic going on
let’s not think about how such a pandemic causing his parents’ death would make Tadashi grow up to want to provide better free universal healthcare and lead him to majoring in engineering to create a “personal healthcare companion”
let’s not think about how Cass relies on her cafe to provide for her family and that maybe she was so unwilling to close was because there was a time when it had to be closed and it was difficult to take care of a 3 year old and 10 year old
let’s not think about how they are canonically a low-income partially poc family (reasoning: hiro received a full grant instead of full scholarship (honestly he probably got both and used the scholarship money for his projects); grants are for low income students.)
