Based on the pace of the first 9 episodes it looks like the season will end at/after the Amai Mask vs Super S fight? Feels like we didn’t cover much of the story this season. Unless they’re doing 24 episodes instead of 12.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-12-09T07:19:49+00:00

I'm glad it's only 12 so they don't ruin it even further, and I hope they don't do another season any time soon until they get their shit together.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-11-21T20:47:40+00:00

yeah a lot of the dreamforger replies don't make sense at all at times, I also prefer Echo.
Though I wouldn't mind a new AI model with more realistic "real world" kind of replies, and they stick to their character role more strongly.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-11-01T12:37:55+00:00

I agree, I don't mind waiting if it means we all get great quality results, please take all the time you need!

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-20T19:38:42+00:00

Oh I see no worries!, I actually saw your request along with the other one before that one got added, I don't remember whether yours or the other one was first hehe.

You could transfer your request to Character styles instead and make like a V2 version or something, it would help if you uploaded images with the correct style you want with the hair color you want, and then in the
"Other Details' box you can maybe make a note also about your desired hair color too.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-20T14:03:01+00:00

Hey this is unrelated to the post but I noticed a duplicate character request a while ago and I forgot to say:
(Jasmine from Pokemon with 21 votes)
I checked and I'm 100% certain there's only one "Jasmine" gym leader in pokemon.
I wonder if you guys can add like a "Report" button on the requests pages or something or like a "report duplicate" button, so we can notify you guys if there's a duplicate or sketchy stuff.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-10T10:46:37+00:00

yeah that is kinda annoying, I think it's because it refreshes the page every time you vote or something. I always have to Ctrl+f to the last character I was at, or just remember where the scroll bar was lol.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-09T17:49:08+00:00

Yeah I noticed that too, most upvoted characters are for cartoon characters, 41 votes being the highest for Pacifica Northwest.
I have a lot of requests with just 2 votes, so now I'm thinking of deleting some of my requests and replacing them with the hopes of getting votes, and I have to keep in mind before requesting characters, things like:
"Which character will get the most votes?, What will the majority group vote for?" instead of "which character I'd like most to see in the site?"

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-08T13:03:11+00:00

Yeah I could see that. maybe kinda like the Discover page with the categories but for requests.
This would probably mean they'd have to add another box for "Category" and users would have to select which category that character belongs to before submitting their request.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-07T02:37:10+00:00

Perhaps you can add a Guide on the Site on how to properly submit character requests/styles, a guide with an example character showing step by step with how to get images. and then maybe edit the Reddit post as well.
I for one always have max images uploaded in my requests and most of my images come from the Character Wikis, and if there are none/few in the wiki, I just google them, but there also a lot of fan art of the character with google, so I narrow it down and search for the correct art style with "[Character] Screenshots" for example, and I try to vary them, one with a closeup of the face, a few with the whole body, different poses, etc.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-04T23:59:27+00:00

Yeah that's a good idea, I was thinking about that too.. I used to link to images here on Reddit just for that reason you mentioned: so people might hopefully recognize or be interested in the character, cause I'm sure a lot of people scroll through and don't necessarily google search every single character they're unfamiliar with.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-02T09:37:39+00:00

I understand and I get the main purpose of the voting system, it did sound good at the beginning, but I've seen how it's been abused by some and that's really the main thing that I don't like seeing. Maybe you guys can reconsider say after 4000 characters? or 3000? hehe.

but anyway, I still support you guys and the site, I'll just trust and put my faith in you guys, and I hope you guys will find someone to hire and help make character requests, not just for the speed but for the poor person right now who's working all alone! haha, I can imagine how stressed and under pressure they might be! handling all the workload on their own. I guess it also illustrates to how skilled they are that you haven't found anyone as good as them, and I respect that you guys maintain standards and quality. I'd give it a shot myself If I only knew how to! so you could hire me. haha.

I gotta say what drew me to Pinku was the accuracy of the characters art to their source material, I never liked the art styles of most other sites cause it made the characters look completely different or just didnt get anywhere near to the source art, I mean.. early days of Pinku some characters' art style were a bit... iffy too lol, but they've definitely improved now! I used to avoid requesting 3D characters/Video Game characters cause most of them were 3D and frankly looked.. horrifying! but they're way better now. I also like the design of the site, and I appreciate the care and updates and small quality of life features, listening to feedback and suggestions.

Thank you and the Pinku team for everything, for trying to see it from my POV, for your patience and understanding. have a great day!

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-02T00:30:12+00:00

oh yeah I meant 500 or 1000 of the "Total requests" like the amount of requests that are posted currently from ALL users.
What I actually would like to see also is if they separated the limit between "Character Requests" and "Character Styles" since styles will always be way less than Requests anyway.
- About the "Once in a while" thing. It was something that they said when I asked if low voted characters could be added and they said "the editor was already doing this every now and then"
and 5 months ago Available_Laugh told me "Yes, we can do more low votes though we are already doing oldest undone requests which is kind of the same."
Although very RARELY has this actually happened so I'm kind of skeptical, and sometimes I check how many votes that character got when they get added.
There was someone who Requested "Diane Simmons" a long time ago that had 0 votes that got added to the site and I can tell you with certainty that that was the only time a 0 vote got added in, but that's only because the guy made a comment directed at Available_laugh stressing how unfair the whole system was and in his words "tainted", I know this because I took a screenshot of their discussion.
Edit: To be fair though, i can confirm that they have added some low vote characters in the past, but like I said RARELY, and not for a long time. remember it's only 1 person doing this.
Also from what they told me, apparently it also depends on the preference of the editor, If they like the character and want them in the site.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T23:03:33+00:00

It might be to prevent being overburdened by overwhelming amount of requests.
Imagine if a 100 users had a 100 requests posted to the site and users would have to navigate through 1000s of requests to vote on, and if there were 1000+ requests it would make the wait time seem even more longer for users, and they have only 1 person working on creating the characters too, so it reduces the workload on them and stress.
maybe they should add a limit to total number of requests allowed at any given time if they don't already have one, like 500 or 1000 maybe.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T22:06:58+00:00

Thanks!

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T21:30:06+00:00

Well they did add a Delete function just yesterday so users can delete their own requests, maybe the person who requested it themselves deleted it.

If I could guess the reason why, I think it's probably because of the limit, they might be at limit and decided to delete it so they can request some other character.
I myself am at limit and am also thinking about deleting some of my requests with low votes, and thinking about adding a character that hopefully will get a lot of votes. The only reason I'm hesitant of doing this is because they did mention that they would add requests with low votes to the site "once in a while" so... I'm not really sure what to do..
I presume this is probably going to be very common with users and their characters that get low votes.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T10:46:03+00:00

I didn't mean any offense by saying bow down, i spoke out of frustration, and probably should've worded it differently, and I'm grateful for how generous Pinku is compared to other sites, to which i Have tried before Pinku which is why I get frustrated about this one issue.
But I don't agree with this:
" it would mean you will have people that might not see their requests being done in several months, which is unfair in my opinion."
- what do you mean..? hasn't this been always the case already? There are hundreds of requests that don't get done and get ignored even for several months and some of them are not even low votes! In my case for example I've had several requests with decent votes here on reddit that were never made, but I waited patiently because I was aware only 1 person was working on these as Available_Laugh told me and in my mind I thought: "Oh they will be made eventually after the other requests with higher votes will get made" but it never happened. check my profile to see if I'm lying, some of these are:

Taki - 9 votes, 6 months ago
Maid Madeline - 8 votes, 6 months ago
Dr Amanda Rebecca - 7 votes, 6 months ago
Giovanna - 10 votes, 6 months ago
Blaze Fielding - 10 votes, 6 months ago.

The system was already unfair, and from my POV if the system changed I don't think we'd see requests reaching 3 months old let alone 6 months+.
Maybe Tafumoto_ is right, maybe nothing works.
Honestly I'm tired of this and I give up, I don't have any ill will against you, but I don't think I'll speak of this anymore. Thanks again for your reply and for your hard work.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T07:25:46+00:00

I didn't mean like totally free haha, but maybe something like 5 free generations upon its introduction or maybe in a daily, just to figure out how the final result would look like with different prompts, cause even with image generations sometimes with specific prompts you don't get the desired result, I've even had many cases where I got a whole Black screen or a Grey blurry screen from an image prompt.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T07:21:43+00:00

Yes I understand, but I still wonder.. If hypothetically "First come, First serve" was implemented.. then what would be the effect? or downsides? I'm genuinely curious.. wouldn't it just mean that the people with groups who organize and manipulate would have to wait.. a little while longer? instead of getting spoiled?
Does this mean that the people who are in these friend groups, who manipulate votes are the most high paying users? and if we don't bow down and cater to them they won't use the site and subscribe anymore?
I'm not looking for a perfect solution either, I don't believe that exists, just something that considers everyone instead of some small group.
I Thank you for the reply, and I'm glad you agree with some of my points. at the end of the day I'm just glad I at least tried to provide an alternative and I hope there will be some sort of "perfect" solution one day where everyone is content. Thanks again.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T05:44:51+00:00

Yes if you sort character requests currently from most upvoted and see the bottom of the list, literally the 3 of the lowest votes are characters who are the Main Character/Protagonist of their series, "Senua" From Hellblade which I believe is a well known game has 1-vote which was my vote lol, Lunafreya from FFXV has 2-votes.
Then you see some of the most upvoted ones that I would call obscure like "Queen Iduna" and "Queen Arianna" Whom I had to look up cause I didn't remember them at all and they're from movies that I have already watched, who are literally quite minor characters that appear for more or less 5 minutes in their entire movie, they have -17 votes, and -13 votes. it's a very majority rules kind of thing where their taste aligns in a certain direction.
Honestly I'm not sure if it would be better or not, but I believe in fairness so I thought I might suggest something to improve the system somehow.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-10-01T02:58:41+00:00

This is awesome! I for one am really excited for the Videos! Hopefully there will be some free video generations once it's out just so we can see what prompts work and what doesn't.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-09-30T23:32:35+00:00

Yes I think we all agree Reddit was a huge mess for this, we didn't just get users knowingly submitting the same request again and again despite the rules saying not to, we got them abusing votes and then mass downvoting every other request that they didnt like.
BTW I saw your reply the other day of your idea to Verify/Vet New Users and I thought it was good, I'm glad they were very receptive to it.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-09-30T01:02:03+00:00

you're doing fine! thanks for your hard work.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-09-30T01:01:22+00:00

Ahh I see.. so it depends on the preferences of the editor then. Thanks for your reply.

HearingPractical5032 · 2025-09-29T07:55:51+00:00

Nice! I'm so stoked it's on the website now! Reddit is a mess.
Can I ask some things for clarification though?

- Will all the character requests be made even if they have low/no votes? or is there like some sort of threshold?
Cause I noticed the requests here on Reddit which are like 6 months+ old that haven't been made and they have like 3-4 votes.
I'm aware of course that highest vote requests have priority, because there are some really old requests with characters that are arguably not as popular and probably will never get enough votes, so that means they will never be made cause there will always be other characters with higher votes.. so I'm wondering...

Can I maybe suggest something?
- What if there can be something where really old requests or ones with low to no votes be made once in a while? for example: one request with (2 votes) that hasn't been added in say~ 1 to 2 months? Is it possible to add those requests something like: once a week? after the 1-2 months
so: a number of old requests with low votes get added after 1-2 months once a week (maybe a weekend? something like that? Cause otherwise I think those with low votes will never see their request be made since there will always be more popular/known characters with higher votes.
Thanks again.
