       @nine2fivestudio "Opposite of grimdark" is a start.

       @SuperSnekFriend yeah, I figured. Idk if I've read any grimdark. Does Clark Ashton Smith count?

       @nine2fivestudio Maybe, the whole dark fantasy sub-genre typically, though not always, fits a grim dark aesthetic.

       @SuperSnekFriend I guess, but if that's the case, why invent a term like "grimdark"? Why not use " dark fantasy"?

       @nine2fivestudio Because "grim dark" can apply to more genres than just fantasy. It's more like a general nihilistic aesthetic outlook.

       Yeah it's really edgy and dumb. While rarely a nihilistic aesthetic works (pic related) because it secretly has something meaningful to say (and not in an arthouse "my French pervert movie is secretly about the Holocaust so you should take it seriously" way), usually it's just self-indulgent edge.

       grimbright. everything is terrible and shitty right now but through valor and hope a new dawn can emerge. Like when the eternal night of Sauron is repelled by the charge of the Rohirrim in the third lord of the rings book

       basically the standard plot point of any adventure movie where the heroes are at there darkest hour then everything turns around. but extended to be the whole plot

       I blame reading and writing comprehension for this victory.
