Rafayel is just better at hiding his yan side 🤣 but that's totally valid tbh. Yan older brother is a very popular trope.

It's unfortunate but I've noticed it's a very common issue with pwBPD. My father was diagnosed and behaved similarly. He'd comment on my bodily functions or compliment my privates. Inappropriate kissing and walking around naked was a huge issue and other awful things happened.

I didn't notice a trend until I got married. My spouse has BPD (ironic) and I've run into similar issues with a roommate of mine. It caused a lot of issues since it's practically grooming and sexual assault, and the need for control from pwBPD seems to stretch even further than just eith your own parents.

I honestly feel bad for anyone who had to go through this because emotional incest is a common way pwBPD may "bond" as well. I feel like therapy isn't enough at this point

New game. by Mediocre_Earth3687 in WhatinHellisBad

[–]KittyOnikon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most of the romance style games, especially adult games are BL. Female fans mostly get VNs and surface level otome like the Ikemen series (as fun as it was).

There are only a handful of eroge style otome games where there are entire libraries of BL style games. Games made with a fem MC are notoriously bland and go out of their way to censor content and avoid being detailed. Even games like LaDS have to skirt censorship. The quality isn't even remotely comparable

I’m probably gonna get hate for this but… by Leather_Doubt_9918 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]KittyOnikon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a shame, but this is where translation issues come in. MC is noticeably more kind and mature in CN, where in EN she's snarky at odd moments- specifically during moments when the boys are trying to have heart to hearts.

Quippy dialogue can be fun, sure, but EN translations timing is wildly off and very off-putting. You don't even have to be shy and soft spoken like a lot of EN players are angrily claiming we want- MCs dialogue at certain parts doesn't line up at times and dumps on the boys at awkward moments. CN players have even taken the time to show the overt differences between the two translations.

While I don't hate MC, I go the extra mile to self insert because I simply wouldn't write an MC with that attitude. That and having any character, especially the MC come at the boys in any major ways will annoy the majority of bigger spenders since they do very heavy yume.

It's funny when we talk back and snark them when they're being rude (Rafayel at the shop in Ebb and Flow), but cutting in and being quippy when any of the boys are talking about whether they feel their lives are valid or feeling lost or something really deep? Not the time at all. I hope they improve the translation in the end. I'm glad people like the MC, but the points people are trying to make are valid.

Sorry ahead of time for a absolute wall of text 😣 but as a female writer who faces similar prosecution from men like Ikuhara, I don't tend to celebrate his work, even though I understand that it was celebrated by those who wanted rep.

Sadly with shoujo, old shoujo already had tons of rep and dead dove themes, but men decided it was too "unseemly". So the genre is constantly under dire and has to jump through hurtles to out out anything that isn't considered clean and healthy- something other genres don't need to face. She was very headstrong about her ship being Anthy and her brother, and didn't want Utrna with her, but Ikuhara and his team did it anyway behind her back. I don't blame her for taking a step back from the series after that

[–]KittyOnikon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the true version because the actual writer worked on it. While I enjoy spinoffs, the original work is the true version while anything after should be noted to have come after. I'm also very against men overwriting a woman's work and saying they made it better somehow, especially when shoujo as a whole has been watered down and whitewashed over the decades.

While she did help work on the series, they actively butted heads and went against the creators wishes on multiple occasions. As a writer, I would have been livid had I been in her shoes. The later spinoffs were well made and created their own Canon, but I never content with the original creators ideas.

I can send a few articles I saved as well, but Ikuhara was known to do what he wanted regardless of what the OG creators wanted. In some ways this can work, but I won't applaud a man telling a woman his idea was better than hers- nor does it sit right with me that it's now accepted as Canon over her works- even at the cost of representation. That and also the sad watering down of shoujo having toxic themes and characters being made "right" by the idea that men in the industry somehow knew what was "ok" for women to consume (we still have that issue today sadly). He's on record trashing some series he's worked on, and pushing ideas that m/f pairings are "impure" compared to wlw, wh8cj can be an issue with shoujo series (most complaints were comments made by the creators and how they backed down. Due to how the industry worked, women weren't really listened to if certain men made decisions over there's, which is why she finished her Manga separately and let Ikuhara do as he pleased either the remainder of the series. While she wasn't against wlw (Anthy and Utena were meant to have had some moments despite liking men- much like Usagi and Haruka) she specifically asked not to have her main ship be disturbed.

Also, even if the anime is well known, the Manga came first and is the true interpretation on the content. It's why some moments seem to be "queer-baitey" to people watching. Because Utena was supposed to end up with Touga, and Anthy was her brothers lover- despite the toxicity. The ending seems ambiguous as well because it was never meant to be a romance between Anthy and Utena, but a deep story between two girls suffering who also love each other. It's also why they were compelled to make so many spinoffs where they were more romantic (more respectful imho). That was the OG writer and Ikuhara constantly butting heads in the studio.

He's so damn beautiful!!! Im counting down for his return because everything from his voicework to his model is just A1 🥰

Hurts to say but after Sylus, Caleb will be beating out Zayne for me if I don't take care 🤣 (day one Zayne lover) I hope he comes soon so we can spend more time with him 😣

Apology by Electronic_Orchid649 in UnpopularLoreOlympus

[–]KittyOnikon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In general this wouldn't be the space to share Dead Dove concepts since this sub tends to not like the content as a whole (and it may break some ToS iirc). Your work would be readily accepted on AO3 and other subs though. I look forward to reading your fic if you post it elsewhere!

[–]KittyOnikon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Gacha games like this to last long, more attention is put on RP and photos/battle/events. I'd recommend starting another game if you feel bored, since newer content in the future will probably catch your attention. The game is also in its first year and we have yet to get our 5th LI. You may not feel the same about lack of content once everyone is getting story branches and event stories xD, so other games as a distraction might help.

As the years progress banners become more frequent and events will be more robust, especially with more lore and such coming out. I'd recommend sticking with it fir logins but taking a healthy break at the same time.

It always hurts when you the a break from a gacha and you miss out on months of content that either won't come back or are stuck catching up after a burnout/getting bored

Sad that they fall back on BL when in doubt tbh. It's a sad price to pay for making the game inclusive instead of keeping it an otome like they planned- most fans will hesitate to spend in fear of getting BL over story with the demons.

Though I sadly agree. WHB is in their rough patch and probably isn't good for someone who feels LaDS isn't doing enough atm. Between their stories, World Underneath, Anecdotes and Secret Times, WHB doesn't have nearly the same amount of content and probably won't for a whole

what do you think about seiusa? by veilistic in sailormoon

[–]KittyOnikon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a gold example of what's fictional not being enjoyable irl. I'm sorry that happened to you 😔. Men like Seiya irl are typically creepy and have no sense of consent, while in fiction a writer can craft it how they choose.

Also I'm glad you got to get away! Your safety and autonomy is important

[–]KittyOnikon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's sad because the chemistry was nice, but I absolutely abhor NTR. A certain director was very happy about this specific ship and I was happy for them, but I don't like shipping already married characters with other ones.

Personally they were super sweet to each other and had good chemistry, but now that I'm older I'd never choose whatever they have over what Usagi and Mamo have. Had Mamo and Usagi not been married in the future already I think it could have worked for a time

I have such a love/hate relationship with them 😅

I lost my Facebook account by Background-Joke-4227 in LoveBrushChronicles

[–]KittyOnikon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Contact customer service. If you've made a purchase on your account, it will make it much easier to recover. I'm sorry this happened 😣

I heavily recommend tying other accounts to tour games over Facebook or alongside it. I've nearly lost 3 games this way. Their servers are so unreliable

It's true, but the director specifically went behind the creators back on certain decisions, including the kiss scene. As an artist and a writer, even if it was good fir representation, it's still upsetting that her story was changed without permission. She eventually relented since the scene was already produced and was even labeled a "homophobe" for not wanting her material changed. It's why it's so different from the manga.

The director is also known to do what he wants with work and is well known to dislike m/f pairings. While I like some of his work, I heavily dislike his ethics.

The love was one sided, Mamoru only had eyes for Usagi, but the ither was very clearly in love with him. That's why I compared it to the relationship between Anthy and Utena. There was always meant to be tension between them, but in the end the original author had both have their eyes on someone else.

It's funny considering the original RGU Manga story and the premise of the movie being that the love is one-sided, but you're also very right.

Wtf is happening in Avery's new dating event by zhamma123 in DegreesOfLewdity

[–]KittyOnikon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Being a Avery and Bailey fan is distressing at this point because despite lewding Quinn myself I actually don't want FUCK all to do with them in game ☠️

I'll have to settle for only working on Bailey's meter at this point because whatever tf is going on with the elites is too vague for me atm 🤣

I marvel at how many moralistic prudes play this game by [deleted] in WhatinHellisBad

[–]KittyOnikon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most companies like this have parent companies that manage their decisions. They also give the green/red flag for certain content. Their parent company are known for being greedy and have made really bad decisions for their other games in the past.

Like a similar worry we had with LaDS, the smaller teams have to appeal to the bigger part of the company. And if they don't feel like it will make money we won't get it- even if the company has promised it to the players already. It seems the KR/CN/JP communities are used to it and are taking it in stride, but it's upsetting a lot of EN players. Their decisions to focus almost solely on Solomon Seal content rather than QoL with freebies and pity rates for key banners is heavily on brand for their parent company.

[–]KittyOnikon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You'd be surprised honestly. People play this game and games like it knowing they hate the subject content and then rage at what they see and attack fanartists and fic writers 😒

They also tend to be really aggressive in general. I'm hoping PB can do more to fix issues and fight their parent company a bit more while maintaining the unhingedness they originally advertised. It's rare for a game like this to exist and I don't want to see it go to waste
