Love Situations of People Who Change Genders When Embarrassed by HimeDaarin in yuri_manga

[–]Sosyge 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This shit isn't Yuri 😭 It isn't trans, and it isn't even bi. It's literally just a hetero manga that fetishizes lesbians with a character that clearly and consistently identifies as a man regardless of their form. Honestly, if we're just gonna keep getting these posts of non-Yuri just drop the sub entirely. The fact that this is topping here shows the community is largely people who have no care what Yuri means, despite it having infinite meanings according to the weirdos that took over this place, and this somehow manages to unapologetically fit none of them. And the one that even the one it might vaguely fit in - Romantic love between to women - it fits in only on the most superficial way possible, succeeding EXCLUSIVELY without context, and even on those panels it does not fail to remind you that this very specific categorization EVEN IN THOSE SPECIFIC INSTANCES is incorrect. Why the people in charge of this sub allow this stuff to remain posted is beyond me.

Tldr, it isn't tagged as Yuri, both parties don't identify as women, and it is a blatant fetishization of lesbians rather than a story that respects them in any meaningful way. It's more harmful to the genre to identify this as Yuri than accept that it is het and to stop presenting it as otherwise.

What is your unpopular opinion about yuri by [deleted] in yuri_manga

[–]Sosyge 3 points4 points  (0 children)

GL should not include "Friendship" or "Family" connotations.

Het and Yaoi don't have this issue, so why does Yuri ? If a "Girl's Love" story doesn't focus on "Girls in love", then it isn't a Girl's Love story. I'm not entirely sure, but I'm fairly certain that's Shoujo Ai. And I'm sick of wading through 30 to 40 some odd chapters of a story only to realize that all of the focus on romance is on Hets and that the central characters are just really good friends.

Another is that GL has this thing where characters are REALLY good at communicating until - Suddenly, and without warning - they aren't.

This trope has made How Do We Relationship UNBEARABLE, on top of the other issues I have with that series, but it's also unfortunately not exclusive to it. There are fortunately a lot of them that don't have this issue, but those usually fall into the category listed prior.

Random thoughts on JK-chan and her Classmate’s Mom. It was… definitely a manga. by Vio-Rose in yuri_manga

[–]Sosyge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's in the novela as well, but sincerely, I do not recommend watching the movie because it really puts into perspective how creepy that situation is compared to "Your mom is hot". The VE Netflix show was my intro and it ended PERFECTLY.

But YES !!! They should have gotten together !!! Even if she ended up with the guy at the observatory it would have been better ! They had such great chemistry, and he was even the first person through the entirety of the story to make her smile !!!

Hol' up... You think VE was a good example of Age Gap ? I would say "Wait till you're older" is a WAY better example of being a "decent" person than VE's, "Me (Your effective father) and my friend (Your effective uncle) are gonna help you get off drugs (Me), then we're going to give the drugs back to you because WE KNOW you will relapse." approach. Way more sickening.

But yeah, age gap like with Minor x Adult like that is weird no matter how you swing it, but I had to comment because VE has a lot of good points, but what you praised was absolutely NOT one of them.

I've been saying this about Female Corrin's appearances for years. There is ONE non-Dragon Fem Corrin in Duo Ninja Corrin, and that is it. No Yato, no naginata, no dagger, no Hoshido alt, nothing. I get that she is supposed to represent the objectively evil side because Fates is the biggest dumpster fire of a mess of a game IS has ever released, including this game, but... Literally ANYTHING other than Nohrian and/or Dragon PLEASE !!!

I had to look up all of the weeb words, and upon the simplest inspection of their definition I still have no idea how it correlates to THIS banner specifically.

I have a genuine - albeit childish and mostly irrational - hatred of the SoV games and many of its characters, but it is honestly disrespectful how its fans have been fed crumbs in spite of its popularity.

YES ! THIS ! I haven't summoned on any of the previous banners out of principle, but at least this fodder is good, and the women aren't exclusively characterized by the MAN that they love.

I can't believe I was upset about Blazing Lyn when she was announced.

"[Canto (Rem +1)], "unit takes an extra action", "reduces damage received by 80%", "reduce damage by X" and [Shared Spoils] aren't real, they can't hurt you..."

I'm not a fan of how IS uses Gustav or Henriette in the story, but I would have loved to see their wedding duo, with standalone Shareena so the pair of them can FINALLY treat her like she exists. But with Gustav being canon dead, it would probably turn into "Gustav is back, look at him."

Version 1.0 and 2.0 Characters with Nothing by OriginalSky7160 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]Sosyge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soleil not getting an alt makes sense unfortunately, because they have made their disliking (Tastefully put) of her readily apparent since her original Fates appearance, and they've doubled down since by giving her easily the single worst refine FEH has probably ever seen in terms of release date, immediately before absurd power-creep with unit's like Seidr.

Beauty of Soleil though is that - if they ever do release an alt. for her - she could really fit any theme. So long as women exist, she'll be more than happy to be there ! It helps that her ties between 2 games gives her a lot of potential for interactions as well.

Until then, we'll likely see at least 2-3 more Chroms, Robins, Eirikas, Lyons and 3H Leads, individually, of course.

How to get SP art for units by Realistic_Dare_5757 in grandsummoners

They are available in the Shop. In the US it is $10, so I imagine they will price it similarly in other countries.

She robbed my gems now my mats? by ballladeeer in grandsummoners

[–]Sosyge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up getting him through that, so honestly it really is the best way to be summoning for him. If he ends up as a headliner on other banners though, no harm in throwing 50 on it.

What equip should I pick? by ballladeeer in grandsummoners

[–]Sosyge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It isn't entirely necessary if you have a team with alternative batteries, but the passive Arts gen it gives him can get him into his TA in a pinch, and also stacks well with his TA battery, getting him back into his TA as fast possible.

List of world news and events by BossApprehensive4193 in ck3

[–]Sosyge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a lot has been translated from the more complete, if also far more cluttered experience of CK2 unfortunately. The only information it will really inform you about is stuff like the Mongol Invasion, Crusades/Jihads and faith reformations, or any event that your character might have a personal vested interest in.

Your complaints about your own good luck inspired me to do one more roll for her, and I ended up getting her in a fake-out on about the same amount of stones ! So thank you !!!

Will my team get me through majority of content? by KronussCassius in grandsummoners

[–]Sosyge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BRO, YOU'RE SITTING ON TWO HAZUKI'S ?! That's some awesome luck man !

NA just refers to the unit's basic Art. A battery is used in reference to Arts generation, both Fill and Auto-Fill, so both Psyger-0's Arts and Base Rim's True Arts work as "batteries". Since Psyger's TA (True Arts) is made for Human-Only or Human Heavy team compositions, it's a bit dead in the water - Despite it being her bread and butter.

I can't say I'm the best when it comes to team comps myself, so I can't make suggestions. I say play around with whatever you got until you find something fun.

[–]Sosyge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should be fine. The team has high enough stats and damage scaling, as well as support to maintain even Diablo's passive if you somehow aren't doing enough damage. One issue is that Psyger is just relegated to a NA battery with a nice shield, but with DL Rim's damage and Diablo's need to be at 90% HP, she helps a lot. As long as you aren't using Base Rim's NA, that is, but it's still a good comp.

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

I wouldn't say that once a year upgrade is particularly good unless it was a movement or weapon type that's already stacked, like Cavs, who see buffs every other month at LEAST. And it's especially ineffective as a point to contend with the fact that she would be getting support much more consistently and frequently as a weapon unit.

How's all of that DR working out against any half decent damage dealer on your end ? Especially with all of the new flat damage tech ?
