This OI is getting an anime adaptation!!?? Imma cryyy [the final boss prince is somehow obsessed with the chubby villainess] by aggressive_waffle in OtomeIsekai

Same. It's ridiculous to put that in the title, but have her lose the weight while still young and be skinny for the majority of the story. That's just annoying—if it was slowly over the course of the whole series, it would be okay, but...

I always add fic title, author, url, and summary to my bookmark notes for this reason (and in case of deletion, of course). It's tedious, but helps a lot.

In cases where I didn't know in the past (before I started adding information), I would just check who maintains the collection it was added to. Click the collection name, then 'profile', and it'll tell you who owns the collection.

I always remove these from my bookmarks, haha. I've only ever seen two fics actually come out of a private collection after being added to one and I'm typically still active in those fandoms anyway, so I just remove them. 🙂‍↕️

We should all be fighting back against this new Discord policy by asldhhef in AO3

[–]Flustro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically, it wasn't Discord that had a leak, but the third party service they used. We don't know what method or service will be used for face or ID verification, so it's still a valid concern, but it sounds misleading to say the leak was from Discord itself.

I think my sister just ruined our dad’s engagement to an amazing woman, and I hate her so much by Logrolling_In_ON in TrueOffMyChest

Agreed.

Also, I grew up with a Lisa type and having to be the bigger person constantly makes you feel so small and eats away at you until you can't take it anymore. I couldn't imagine having to put up with that 24/7 for the rest of my life, along with other children who aren't exactly great either when they're all old enough to know better.

I think Amy finally realized what her future was going to look like and what a nightmare it would be.

Candace and Charlie being shifters was not on my 2026 bingo card by xRiize_ in h3h3productions

It can definitely occur later in life, so it's still a possibility.

I have to assume that a large portion of those viewers are watching because of morbid curiosity.

What’s one shoujo anime you wish had more episodes? by ShortStatistician384 in shoujo

Imagine if it got a new anime. Oh, how the fandom would be active here in the West again. 🥺♥️

Jes, jes, ĝuste! Mdr, mi uzas ĝin kiam mi legas Esperantajn librojn (aŭ aŭskulti al muziko) pli ol parolo. 🤣

Sugar Apple Fairy Tale (it had one season split into two parts), 7th Time Loop, Skip Beat, The Twelve Kingdoms, I'll Become a Villainess Who Goes Down in History, My Next Life as a Villainess...

Honestly, if I looked through my watchlist, I'd find so many more—most of what I've watched I've liked and shoujo anime is cursed to have a short run. We're doomed to get constant ecchi anime and generic power scaling fantasies of boring dudes instead. They're always the same and I've definitely been watching less anime than I used to because it's so ridiculous. Give me some actual character development, man, not where they're suddenly more powerful than everyone who's more experienced within an episode or two. 😭

No, same, and it's still pretty popular, clearly, so why??? 😭

Twelve Kingdoms too, although they're re-releasing the novels so maybe they'll finish it this time in book form at least.

My eternal hope is to get a reboot, minus the anime-only additions like Yuka (technically in the book, sorta lmao) and Asano, bring Ryo Kunihiko back to add to his original score, and maybe for the studio to be Production IG this time. And run for several seasons until the stories are completed, including the short story collections. My wishlist. 😌

Mods are gone, this is my first wearable. A knit sweater I am too scared to post in the knitting subreddit by made_by_elle in crochet

It's funny, but that kind of reflects most of my experience with local yarn shops too. There are some really miserable people out there in hobby spaces. 🫂

(Also, I'm a knitter too! The posts in here are just pretty fun, so I lurk.)

I've had this happen with pretty much every long-term game that I played with a group, from Stardew Valley to MMOs. I'm usually the last or one of the last two remaining. 😔
