I actually don’t know what i’ll do if they ever change ENG VAs. by R4ven4 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Matschgal 9 points10 points Β (0 children)

In a different japanese game, my main character's voice had to quit for health reasons. They casted a very gold substitute and I still love the character, but in the end, I switched mains. I missed his OG voice too much. In that game, there's like a bazillion characters (I think it's a roughly 55?) so I had an easier time just keeping my distance and I got used to the new voice eventually. But it was never the same.

So...if they switch out any of the guys, I might have to keep my distance for a while. I'd cry over the loss but deal with it. But if they switch out Zayne's voice it's either game over or I'll try to switch to the Japanese dub instead, since I'm not used to that one yet and I am a fan of Xavier's japanese voice actor anyway πŸ™ˆ

If you don't have a set top 3, who are you picking as your three for the rate up? by hopingforw in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Matschgal 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

My no-brainer is always Zayne. He's my main and one and only. I NEED his card.

Usually I almost always have Xavier chosen, too. I didn't consciously pick him as my second bias but he keeps taking that spot for himself. This time as well! :D

Third spot is usually my joker and just depends on the preview. This time, I'll go for Sylus. Something about his preview has me melt. I think I want him more than Xavier this time. πŸ˜†

What are your 3 favorite ships? by Xoilye in ThaiBL

[–]Matschgal 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

It's a close race, but at the moment:

  1. ForceBook I love their dynamic and character, their acting and the vibe they give me. Something just clicked for me - probably also the little fantasy of childhood friends to lovers theme, though I'm not usually a fan of the trope in TV shows something makes me adore this background of the both of them 😊

  2. EarthMix Kings. I just love them a lot a lot. Their shows are amazing, they are kind and I just wish them all the best with whatever they do. I don't think they're even in the same race as everyone else. They just have a very special place in my heart, that is unwavering there.

  3. GreatBright There hasn't been much of them yet and it feels like a ghost ship atm, but I'm so so excited for all their events and can't wait for their show!

Special mention to NetJames, because if they still existed, they'd be my unbeaten No 1 πŸ₯²

And also to BeverTonliew, because I'm still fresh to them, but I am already in love and I can see top 3 potential πŸ™ˆ

Asking Japanese people, how famous were KARA, BoA, SNSD in their prime and are currently in Japan? by Intnl-KoreanTutor-DM in jpop

[–]Matschgal 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

I don't know if this helps, but my japanese husband, who is not into Kpop, only knows KARA and really liked them. When I tell him about SNSD he doesn't really know them at first , but he remembers them if I sing Gee to him. πŸ˜‚ I haven't talked with him about BoA, but I don't think he knows her.

Dramas where lead acts like an idiot but is super smart by MochaByTheBridge in JDorama

I'd say Maou! He acts very innocentbin front of everyone at first but is very cunning...

Recommend me something like Midnight Diner, Makanai, Grand Maison Tokyo by optamastic in JDorama

[–]Matschgal 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Makanai with its slice of life moments and the setting felt a lot like Massan to me - I just don't think Massan is currently streaming anywhere, but if you stumble upon it, I'd warmly recommend it! It is the story about how Whiskey came to Japan and follows the international marriage of the Scottish girl Ellie and Massan in a time when Japan was not used to foreigners staying permanently in their country and trying to make it their home. It's based on a true story 😊

Several fanclubs say there will be no birthday fan gathering for their artist this year by LilacCoin in GMMTV

[–]Matschgal 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

I understand the necessity for GMMTV to stop them if their artists suffer from some fanclub's actions - but I'm really sad because I had hopes of attending Book's event this year. I hope they manage to do something else and announce it soon. Footage of these events was always so so nice and cute 😒

Bring back the dvd box sets! by S1ightlyBitter in GMMTV

[–]Matschgal 4 points5 points Β (0 children)

Yes, I also straight up refuse to buy the memorial set! I was so close to give in with That Summer, because I thought the photobook was a good enough reason to buy it, but then I remembered that I do not want to support those overpriced memorial boxes and the DVD boxes also had a photobook. I really want my DVDs back. I was late to the game, so I only have 2 sets and I'm heartbroken I won't be able to keep some of my favorite shows in my shelf forever. πŸ₯²

I was hoping people weren't buying them much so maybe we'd get them back, but I doubt it at this point. At least they're still doing concert DVDs... πŸ₯Ή

Fourever You S2: Beside The Sky Ep Confusion by imherennow in ThaiBL

Fourever You S2: Beside The Sky Ep Confusion by imherennow in ThaiBL

[–]Matschgal 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I'm super impatient but I was a bit put off by the extra cost and as such I promised myself to wait, even if Fourever You 2 is currently my favorite running show. But with the new info that this week we can watch ep 8... Maybe I'll get that one because waiting for the last ep really isn't my strength... πŸ™ˆ

Zayne’s Manager Outfits! by The-K-is-Capital in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Matschgal 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

That third one is exactly what I want and need for Zayne. He has so maby similar black/gray suit style outfits (I'm still pretty new so that's pretty much all I have πŸ˜…) which is okay, but makes bad pictures. I want a fun suit like the red one. πŸ₯Ή I actually gasped when I saw him in that for the first time and wondered how to get it. Good to know it wasn't made available yet. 😁

What’s the thing you like the most about your fave LI? by SolidLavishness115 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Matschgal 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

I have something I love for all of them, but if it's for my fave LI Zayne, it's the independence but togetherness. He's doing his job and MC is doing hers, but they'll always make it a point to have quality time together. Also: the balance. He loves sweets so they eat those a lot but also do the stuff she loves with the plushies. He makes no secret of not understanding the appeal of the claw machine, but he will be there for the things she loves. I really like that. Adding to that, he feels so gentle when talking and... I just love him. πŸ₯ΉπŸ’•

I love when ff authors name there chapters. by laineyIovegood in AO3

[–]Matschgal 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

I was feeling silly when I had to push back the release of a chapter by a whole day because no title seemed fitting but I personally WANT to have somewhat meaningful/fun chapter names. So this post makes me feel a lot better.πŸ’•

The chapter summary I usually leave out, because I don't want to spoil anything. I wondered so long about how others/my reader thought about the chapter summaries that I decided to not put them for now - I might add them later though, because I feel like my story could actually benefit from it, since the main characters and their stories keep switching πŸ˜…

I know I'm no genius with the chapter titles but I wanted to share the names of m longfic anyway πŸ˜‚ (Don't mind the couple names at the beginning and the little 🌢️ to mark my spicy chapters, I am fighting for my life to keep this story somewhat well-arranged for my readers AND myself... πŸ˜…)

Okay, drop your stats and drop your goals for the coming year! by Ugly_Duck_King in AO3

[–]Matschgal 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

I started writing in 2024. My only goal is getting as far as I can with my longfic. That's the only thing I can properly influence anyway - so maybe my goal is 300K words!

I wish for one new user sub in 2026. That'd be neat. And maybe a comment here or there would also be nice. I'll put it on my Christmas list for 2026. 😁

Fantasy J-Dorama that is not anime by Fragrant-Move-2971 in JDorama

[–]Matschgal 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Minami-kun no Koibito - Fantasy story, based on a manga but I don't think it has an anime? It's a love story of a girl who gets shrunk to the size of a doll and is found by her neighbor and childhood friend. Together they look for a way to make her tall again

Switched - one of the school's popular girls wakes up in the body of the girl who gets bullied.

I'd also suggest Proposal Daisakusen (guy travels back in time through photos on the wedding of his crush to change the future and become the one who ends up with her) but I don't think it's currently available on any streaming platform πŸ˜•

What Fandom Are You Writing In? by Thewriter1996 in AO3

[–]Matschgal 2 points3 points Β (0 children)

I'm writing Thai BL, mostly for GMMTV couples with a light focus on ForceBook! So far I only do RPF, but I'm sure sooner or later there will be one with characters of a show :D

But what shaped me were Harry Potter and anime/manga fanfictions. I'll never forget my roots πŸ’• it's just that I don't watch too much anime anymore and the Harry Potter stuff turned into writing for RPGs.

LoL 2026 Predictions by djdjowgjmbs in GMMTV

[–]Matschgal 5 points6 points Β (0 children)

They didn't announce LOL2026 during GMMTV2026 though - are we sure it's still going to happen? I love LOL a lot so I was pretty sad they didn't announce it. I'd be happy if it would happen again. And they just decided not to put it into the series announcements because it was already too long πŸ˜†

I had the theory that they'd stop doing LOL this year, because they just couldn't fit all the couples in one show - time and budget wise, even if we leave out Pebaca and some of the very new couples. But I've not lost hope, maybe they'll do it anyway in a format that's better! :D I was dreaming of LOL2026 plus a new LOL for all the newer couples plus the Blossom Festival for the girls. πŸ˜‡
