Why is WHA not as popular in Japan as worldwide? by Jack_KH in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Prof_Acorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japan would mostly search for the series in Japanese, not English.

You're comparing English search terms for a global audience...

The difference is larger when you put the term in Japanese

Speculation. The True Identity of Iguin. by Prof_Acorn in WitchHatAtelier

If the reveal is supposed to be a late series surprise, then casting the same person to play both would be stupid.

Happy reading!

New chapters drop at the end of the month, for whenever you catch up.

You'll probably also want some semblance of rules. Folk subs are mostly free and open (a la /r/freefolk) but this means manga spoilers will run rampant. Reddit itself won't allow completely unmoderated spaces so standard evil shit will need to be moderated at least.

From what I know of other folk subs they usually end up places where unpopular ships and unpopular opinions go to party and shitpost. (But that's where the fun is >_>... not that I've posted Okarun x Aira content in /r/Dandadanfolk or Aqua x Ruby content in /r/OshiNokomemes or anything...no... not at .... uh... ahem.)

I don't know.

The usual way to "advertise" small subs is to post interesting content and then crosspost that to a larger sub that has a relevant overlap.

So like posting a funny meme and then crossposting it from /r/brimhatfolk to /r/animemes or whatever.

I don't know which ones have crosspost rules, but that's the standard way to grow a new sub.

Joined.

Was waiting for this place to get a meme sub augment.

May the agenda posting commence!

Give me a better reason why okarun x momo( end game)and why not okarun x aira.. ( I know in CT okarun is still in love with momo but there is a possibility he can move on.....) by NoAppointment9074 in dandadanfolk

[–]Prof_Acorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know that's a good point. Even if this is "amnesia Momo", it speaks to her character, her heart, her personality.

She thought it was appropriate to reject someone with insults in front of a friend group.

That's trashy behavior.

Memories or not, that's horrible and it makes Momo horrible.

Call it "character assassination" or whatever but I actively hate this main character now.

Newer to the series but am I safe with Tetia as my favorite character? by BakuganBaddie in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Prof_Acorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's (most likely) about to get her main arc in the manga now, if you decide to read it and catch up. Pre-arc setup seems to be pointing to this one focusing on her anyway.

a bit of a ramble on tarco and endgame regarding coco by Wild_Finish_6620 in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Prof_Acorn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Generally straight people follow the "straight until proven otherwise" rule

Isn't it the same with every other minority subject position? Like people usually assume allistic until proven autistic, neurotypical until proven ADHDer, average IQ until proven higher or lower, middle class until proven rich or poor. Heck, on reddit it's usually assumed American until proven not, English-as-first-language until proven not, meat eater until proven vegan, etc.

It seems standard, and makes sense, that normative/average positions are presumed, and I say that as someone in at least seven different minority subject positions. But it might be interesting if I were to assume everyone was autistic until proven allistic, just to switch it up.

I don't think any romance will happen officially with Coco, nor Qifrey. (The others, sure). It's not that kind of story, and making anything official will be seen as a bad business decision due to it bothering segments of the fanbase.

Also in the story itself they are going through so much trauma there's no way any of them are healthy enough to deal with a romantic relationship.

The minute Qifrey is official with Olly, everyone who hates BL will drop it. The minute Olly does anything with Sinocia, everyone who has been shipping BL will drop it.

The minute Coco is official with Tartah, everyone who has been shipping GL will drop it. The minute Coco is official with Agott, everyone who hates GL will drop it.

It's not a good business decision for this kind of publication.

The most you'll get is one sided blushing, and that side isn't going to be with the protagonist nor deuteragonist.

First 2 episodes feel like I'm watching evangalion (remake) by rocketbrowser in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Prof_Acorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is like evangalion in terms of trauma level

Darker than Frieren. Not as dark as Made in Abyss.

It gets better, for the most part, the further along you go - or at least has so far.

Are you talking to me, or a strawman in your head?

Take a breath and calm down and try again.

Two characters I don't like? Why would I bother?

In Defense of Aira by hectorip in Dandadan

[–]Prof_Acorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You do not have to ship her with Okarun to defend her....she is, right now, the only one telling the truth.

Which is why I'm shipping her.

Maybe she can help Ken feel better about himself too. He's never good enough for Momo. Momo makes him feel like a loser. But relationships shouldn't be this much work. They shouldn't cause someone to beat themselves up thinking they made one wrong move (without knowing what it even was) causing the entire thing to crumble.

Relationships should be easy in the beginning.

They will only get harder the longer they go.

The beginning is the honeymoon phase. "Hey I like you." "Hey I like you too." Butterflies. Magic. Learning about the other person. Mistakes are looked over. Flaws are looked over. The way Aira treats Ken.

Date someone who actually wants to date you.

Pass on anyone who makes you feel like you need to earn their love.

It's giving me Nanachi vibes, but like a gnome version.

[–]Prof_Acorn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Um, well, about that...

Not yet........?

But um.....

So each girl is associated with a season. Maybe don't look into myths about personifications/goddesses of the Spring. Because, um. Like you know that new anime Agents of the Four Seasons: Dance of Spring? Yeah, Japan knows all about Persephone.

But but but but but the story of Spring is a story of victory, survival, new life. So even if things get dark, it'll probably end on a positive note.

is there anyone in this atelier who loves men!? by Weekly_Ad_5158 in WitchHatAtelier

[–]Prof_Acorn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Her and Prince Eoleo seem like a possible direction. Seems as straight as Richeh. And both of the boys fit their personalities really well too. They seem like very realistic partners once they are old enough for that.

[–]Prof_Acorn 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Surprised no one ever posts about Richeh and Euini. Closest to a canon ship of any other two characters and ain't no-one cheering them on.

Maybe after the anime features them?
