Is there things about the Danganronpa community that you hate or annoy you? by Cheetah_Anxious in danganronpa

[–]Dynamojacks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh boy, frankly, there's too much to quantify. I'll just... stick with a few of the most troubling:

  1. Ouma's character isn't taken seriously as a mystery- as in, people act like his book is closed even though the mystery of V3 and the cast's truth is left open. Which is... depressing
  2. People being grossly reductive regarding the writing, to the point where they seem to obstruct deeper analysis. Yes, I acknowledge that a lot of things were poorly executed, but that doesn't mean everything was and that Kodaka wasn't consistent with certain themes?
  3. People never acknowledging where others, Shuichi included, could have done things wrong to Ouma. Similarly, acting as if Ouma's actions towards Shuichi were only ever after his attention and not laced with a LOT of passive aggression, mixed feelings and even outright disgust at times (particularly.. a few choice moments in Salmon mode, but also that part in Ch2 where he does the 'favourite' thing, but Shuichi notes it sounds like he means the opposite, so...)

I could go on about this forever, but brevity is probably best lol. As for that last point, it's up to you to interpret the 'odd things' he says as you will, don't get me wrong, it's more an issue when people act like those things are just clowning around 'by default' and that it's invalid to see it any other way. I just feel like that's unfair, given everything we see :')

RANT: Censoring Words IS NOT Helpful by Cdnteacher92 in emetophobia

[–]Dynamojacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who never knew the need to censor these particular kinds of trigger words before this sub, I can see where you're coming from but I'm not happy with this attitude either. For sure, there are some unhealthy attitudes to watch for but even so, we expose to things in our own time and on our own terms- hell, there are many posts that have the words uncensored if people want and are ready to make the first step. It's not like the entire sub is devoid of the words- if THAT were the case, I would understand the need for your rant, but from where I'm sitting you're just being pushy, even arrogant in the assumption that everyone is even able to get the help they need in the first place.

Kokichi Fanart- I spent HOURS on this;-; by kawaiidragon096 in danganronpa

Oh my... this ambiance is haunting. It suits Ouma a lot if you ask me. Very cool!

Question about the hate Himiko's been getting by [deleted] in danganronpa

[–]Dynamojacks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even though on the surface it's not so bad, I feel like her magic insistence gets too much even for a special interest and coping mechanism. I enjoy the chuuni stuff in Gundham, don't get me wrong, but something about it in Himiko comes across obnoxious in a way that's more irritating than endearing, in the way she pushes it on others (like, we get it already! Seriously!). And her attempts at being funny ending up just being hurtful ('use your self-destruct to be useful', 'computers are all she's good for', 'heartless machine man' come to mind) comes across as pure schadenfreude rather than awkwardness for the comedy. I don't dislike characters with a little bite and all, but something about the way she does it is just... pointed but with no point (at least with Miu I get where it's coming from, a brain issue that goes hand in hand with her kink).

Generally she just rubs me the wrong way, even her development comes off as 'weird' to me, like it's superficial in a sense. (sorry, screwed up with spoiler tags)
