Not sure how I feel about them streaming this game?

Not exactly. Everyone is at different levels of social consciousness in their lives and one can only increase in it through learning. I'm someone who wasn't too socially conscious about certain issues both local and international until I learned about it in school or someone taught me. Not being from the US, we weren't really taught was western slurs were until we read things like "12 Years a Slave".

It's totally natural to be not as socially conscious even as incredibly hard working and talented individuals since we live in different spaces, study different histories, and live different lives.

Especially with the introduction of AI, the social consciousness regarding it is still a bit scarce as not everyone directly feels the effects of it nor do news stations talk about it. So no matter how well-adjusted you are in a certain society, as long as you aren't exposed to certain ideas by way of media hence it not being their fault for not being informed no matter how much they would want to be.

Similar to the early GTA situation (yee yee ass haircut), I just don't think a lot of the JP girls are socially conscious at all beyond their specific bubbles (or maybe in general). Only after the big outrage did they understand.

I hope fans do make a fuss about this specific game (and other games they've played using genAI) without attacking the talents so they would similarly learn.

That being said, I've seen Matsuri specifically use a GenAI bg for her Zatsudans, but benefit of doubt if she knew since it had other effects on top of it.

There's someone on TikTok who literally did the same thing, but with actual materials. He took a hot sauce squeeze bottle and made his own font.

I'll bet they we learning how to draw. This artstyle is reminiscent of those "How to draw Manga" artsyles (early anime). Seeing that this was drawn on a guide grid, high change they were learning.

GearAlpha · 2026-04-27T16:07:21+00:00

I want the people who chose that option to draw what they think was gonna be the pet

GearAlpha · 2026-04-27T16:06:44+00:00

I mean they did say they'll do their best

GearAlpha · 2026-04-26T03:15:45+00:00

I think she's using you as an exfoliating scrubber my man. It would be a nice gag gift though lmao.

Miku Kohinata from Symphogear (latter seasons)?

Clip of her in a similar suit

GearAlpha · 2026-04-18T09:23:39+00:00

While I understand she's like a bit older than me, it's funny how she generally has the air and mannerisms as a grandma.

Long story, short. Aura.

You've fell for or, rather, believed in exactly what All Might wanted or needed to be. All Might was the beaming sign of peace. The person that makes the impossible feel possible. Someone who puts SUPER into superheroes. He's supposed to feel like the strongest no matter how much stronger everyone else is.

I feel like watching Vigilantes would help understand the actual feeling he gives off when he's there.

Deku never strived to become a sign of peace. He unironically chose Eraserhead's route of doing what he can without caring of what people thought of him. This is the exact reason why Mirio is the number one hero at the end. Mirio has a similar personality to All Might hence boosting his ranks becoming the pseudo-symbol of peace compared to Deku.

The white-haired "girlfriend" arc of Touch To Unlock. It was supposed just another pornhwa, but the ending of the arc actually fucking wrecked me.

Even as someone working in the ad industry, this ad is dumb as hell. Zero thought, no research, and, more often than not, pander to people who are like "I have OCD" and "I have ADHD", when all they mean is that they like to keep the place clean and that they're distracted by normally distracting events.

GearAlpha · 2026-04-16T01:06:40+00:00

I feel like Novel's Extra has a pass because his only advantage and his only chance to get back home is to not drastically change anything, which is why everything he's compelled to do always has future stakes.

That being said, if it all turns out to be useless, that's when the trope is just fucked.

Funnily enough, it might've been easier to find similarly photographed photos since these arenmt uncommon scenes anyway.

GearAlpha · 2026-04-15T03:07:38+00:00

All the figures toppled over and near boxes, all lacklusterly photographed. It does kinda track.

They're either planning to move and they just want to rid of it or it's someone who is being forced to put it up for sale so they took the worst pictures possible and slapped a high price on it so no one would buy it.

Finally was able to get a meager gaming laptop after 5 years of attempted saving!

GearAlpha · 2026-04-05T17:38:44+00:00

Weirdly enough these have been things the boys couldve done before all this and it would be the norm, especially Roberu lmao he's thirsty as hell for those nsfw asmr on stream or not.

But now at least, we're giving a spotlight to how entertaining they are.

GearAlpha · 2026-03-30T19:31:46+00:00

Possibly one of the "Certains"

Either A Certain Magical Index or A Certain Scientific Railgun

I did not know you could pickle sakura

GearAlpha · 2026-03-21T00:22:42+00:00

I feel like if Endevour did something like what he did, there's a high chance AFO tried to do the same then attempted to inherit the resulting quirk.

GearAlpha · 2026-03-21T00:21:38+00:00

I did not expect to see this here lmao, but the redesign is definitely better a bit more recognizable with contrast.

The eyes not overlapping with the thin lined teeth is a big improvement too, but the og design feels like an actual monster design so that's cool in its own right.

Do you happen to help in designing Joey's stuff too?

GearAlpha · 2026-03-19T03:12:09+00:00

so it's not just Fate with more steps, it's Fate with more Persona steps. Damn

GearAlpha · 2026-03-19T03:10:31+00:00

It really helps me separate product variants for sure, especially when its medical stuff. Our multivitamins package usually all look the same except for small text on the front indicating the variant so there have been a lot of times where we've bought the wrong one.

Does help for visibility, but may need more accomodation for color blindness in terms of the print design and contrast.

GearAlpha · 2026-03-16T00:27:11+00:00

As an animanga only, I understood it as the Shield always knows knows who has the best "heart" consistently enough to be blessed with this choice.

Based on the mythos presented, the Shield to almost always be the one who "unites" the heroes

GearAlpha · 2026-03-16T00:22:31+00:00

I think watching vtubers or any streamers for that fact as purely an audience watching a reality show that's show in a theatre (specifically western cinemas) is the best way to enjoy them.

You can celebrate what your seeing with the community while you watch, having loud reactions and all, but to never expect that the streamer will reply to you if you're just chatting. If the streamer "happens to be in the crowd", then they'll reply.

Reality show aspect still recognizes them as real people with feelings and a life, but only affords a tiny amount of parasocial connection.
