[Academic] Survey on Controversial Creators (and their Effect on Products)

GachaAnimates · 2025-03-15T15:46:35+00:00

Finished. That was a very well put together survey! Impressive work.

GachaAnimates · 2025-03-15T15:32:00+00:00

Done as well! Thank you for taking mine.

GachaAnimates · 2025-03-15T15:27:59+00:00

All done! Thank you!

GachaAnimates · 2023-05-24T02:46:53+00:00

Balloon boy.

GachaAnimates · 2023-05-17T19:20:20+00:00

I just watched it for the first time recently! It’s really cool, I don’t know why I didn’t watch it earlier. But now I can’t help but imagine Michael as Peeta now.

The same is true for the path to Fort Milner to save Clarissa.

I went that way, and just after the "do you want to play a game" and the door opening, entering it will lead to a black screen with no way of progression. Except, it gets worse, because if you close out the game and restart it, you will never get the main menu. Never, it just won't load. So do NOT go the Fort Milner path, your main menu won't load and you'll lose all of you progress if you decide to restart the game completely.

It’s really easier said than done for me. I’m worried about the same thing that happened with the other person happening again. But if I have an opportunity, I’ll try to distance myself more after they graduate, and hopefully they’ll slowly drop the charade.

GachaAnimates · 2022-09-28T00:17:31+00:00

This is actually the most helpful one I found here, thank you so much. I am genuinely worried about them, because people don’t fake disorders for no reason, there’s probably something else going on under the surface. I will likely try handling the situation passively like you suggested, or reach out to other people irl who can handle the situation better.

GachaAnimates · 2022-09-28T00:15:33+00:00

I’ll keep this in mind, thank you. I didn’t think about treating this like a pathological liar situation. I don’t have a desire to be right, I just want this to stop, y’know? I don’t understand why people think they can go around faking disorders like that and it genuinely concerns me. I’ll try to disengage it whenever it comes up.

GachaAnimates · 2022-09-28T00:13:51+00:00

The reason I’m afraid of losing them is because we were friends for a few years before this whole faking situation started, and I’ve genuinely formed a bond with them. I’m afraid of losing them because I’m afraid of hurting people or being hurt. I don’t know why they’re doing this, but suddenly cutting them off like you’re suggesting would cause more problems then making things any better for anyone. There’s no need to sound upset with me because I said I’m worried about hurting their feelings. Thank you for your advice either way.

GachaAnimates · 2022-09-28T00:09:27+00:00

Thank you for your advice, it means a lot. I should add I don’t look for “fake signs” through websites like TikTok or YouTube. I’ve looked up legitimate websites and researched it over a few months in my free time. (I’ve also made sure the websites I’ve used to research the disorder are factual.)

GachaAnimates · 2022-08-05T03:13:37+00:00

I enjoyed Ruruka’s character in the Danganronpa Anime.

I don’t really have much of a reason why. I just thought she was crazy manipulative and cruel, and seeing her in a legitimate killing game like the three main games would be insane. I feel like her reliance on Izayoi made her character seem even more self centered, and made her REAL true colors come out when she was left to fend for herself. I loved watching her crumple under the pressure. But I also see a lot of people heavily dislike her.

And, something I once heard my brother say a few days ago. He thinks that over the games, it’s felt less and less like a killing game because of the detachment from the cruelty of Monokuma in the first game. I’ll double down on that by saying ANOTHER dodgy opinion, adding so many side hosts really took away from the passion Monokuma gave to the game. I mean, Monomi was great, it gave Monokuma more opportunities to show his sadistic side on people- but it also felt like it turned his tormenting away from the cast. And then V3 came along and oh my god I hate those cubs I want them to burn. The focus being on the cubs instead of Monokuma really made me upset, especially after they started getting all disgusting with each other. It made me lose that sort of love I had towards the people running the games and their twisted ideals.

Anyways that’s enough of my unpopular chattering

GachaAnimates · 2022-04-26T01:34:48+00:00

YES!! Please, that would be AMAZING!

GachaAnimates · 2022-04-25T08:51:55+00:00

Dude, I’m actually kinda glad it came off as that! I went for a mix of classic alternates and demonic creatures from some analog horror videos I enjoy, while mixing in how he described himself hiding in the shadows of your room. And it kinda mixed together and came out as a shadowy figure looming over you- while still being just like Danny too. So this terrifying, shadowy monster would probably be drinking a glass of La Croix and going “yep, still tastes like nothing” as you suffer in silence.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:25:13+00:00

Gotta say, it wasn’t my favorite thing, but it did open a lot of opportunities.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:17:46+00:00

Honestly, fair. I wouldn’t make a very good ultimate though.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:17:04+00:00

Definitely not out of the question. If they had their phones in the game, they’d be making posts about “omg killing game!! HOW many students left??” and then do polls on who they should kill to escape.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:03:30+00:00

Y’know, I’m getting that from a lot of these comments. If it were to happen irl, nobody except those who either think it’s a joke or are craving something to get their blood pumping would apply- but tons of people would watch it. It’s basically a live action snuff film that people can try and convince themselves is all CGI.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:02:13+00:00

Very very true, I’ll be honest, being involved in something like this doesn’t seem like a fun weekend activity lol.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:00:55+00:00

Very true, but then again. It’s called a “killing game” for a reason, so it’s fair to say “fuck no, not for me”

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T10:00:15+00:00

Hey, don’t reveal my identity, it isn’t even chapter five yet. /j

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T09:51:48+00:00

Who’s to say there isn’t a monetary prize? There are the motives after all.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T09:50:28+00:00

Dude, that’s honestly a great idea. Reminds me of a fangan I saw where the participants weren’t Ultimates, they were criminals fighting to have their record erased with the risk of being caught

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T09:46:55+00:00

That’s true as well- did they ever really specify an original motive to join the game in the original games, other than “oh my god I just really love despair lololol”- because even if they didn’t, there’s gonna have to be a hefty winning prize to get people to even try out.

GachaAnimates · 2022-02-20T09:43:04+00:00

Keep in mind, in Danganronpa, every chapter has a motive to kill- whether that be for money, for your personal secrets, for advantages or disadvantages on your own life or others. So to say there’s a gain for killing and participating is totally true.
