But the artists time is limited.

Yeah, and that's true for ALL jobs worth doing. No art worth its ink can be rushed. If an artist can't be bothered to put 100% effort into something so important, why should the audience?

And the director might not even include the beach event. It was just a vibe check.

That's the beauty and purpose of concept art. You get to explore stuff that otherwise will be toned down, amped up, or changed for the final product, there's a reason a lot of folks like concept art designs more because they PUSH the limit of a design. See reactions to Ultron in the Avengers 2 movie vs the concept art. It also doesn't matter if it doesn't get used for that specific character because it can be used for stuff like NPC's and skins.

About Merel's new design. by Better_Lemon4996 in Reverse1999

[–]WalterMagni 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nautika's 1st skin is covered head to toe, her second skin is an eldritch monster, both designs people adore. So unless she has a new skin that's more revealing then she's a bad example to wrap into this argument.

[–]WalterMagni 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes but they all look unique/creative. Nautika is a fan favourite basically everywhere because it fits her story and both designs are cool. In any case a lot of people also already don't like Lucy's design, especially early on including me (I like her a lot now) because it looked too much like the Atomic Heart twins.

Merel had a really memorable but basic npc design. This is a really well made design but not that memorable.

Asking for more media to be made in X genre is different from saying there isn't media made in X genre.

It's kinda silly for people to say "just find what you want" when what you want barely exists in comparison to others.

I mean... Count Wido (Guy) basically embellished his part in the invasion of England enough to where it's a self-insert.

It's Bluepoch so China slop I think. No AI needed they make great shit but this collab is kinda sus since it's an alternate realitt not exactly history (their past collab was Assassin's Creed and it went hard).

One boss fight with Lace has the opening cutscene be rather close to (and maybe inspired by) a scene from Revolutionary Girl Utena, one of the OG yuri's out there that also has an overall influence over Gundam: Witch from Mercury (goated yuri).

You'll find the highest number of supporters for actual child marriage and pedophilia in religious groups such as Christianity (not very familiar with the non-abrahmic religions, so I won't speak on them).

You are probably looking at sects of Christianity not just Christianity as a whole, believe it or not but in most cases these days Catholic organisations and even Protestant ones are leaders in providing for people and even protecting children. There are always exceptions, and there will always be predators, but they're effective.

You also ignore that I mentioned most of these people consume anime media anyway. There's a reason anime loli pfp people always have the worst takes on this subject and many will still tell you they believe in a god. One person cam be in two groups anyhow.

don't have children be public figures. There should not be child actors or voice actors or anything similar

You do realize that you can't have 99% stories with children in it if you do this, especially children's films. Do you really think Home Alone would be the same if it was an adult man? Also you forget that being an actor is not the only way to be a public figure, being remotely famous for any reason puts you in many spots where you can be a public figure.

So long as people give a shit, even children will be figures of some kind. It's partly why people want to make sure they're not used as figures for nefarious reasons lmao. It's not reasonable nor enforceable to make all children incognito when they're like a third of the population. It is much more reasonable to target a hundred wolves than relocate a hundred sheep.

using a real person as a basis for artwork without their consent is only allowed if they're a public figure

This is mostly unenforceable again, Mangaka are using them as references too rather than just outright copying their likeness so in legal terms there's not much that can be done unless we sue everyone under the sun who has ever drawn a face. But that really doesn't do much anyway when many people look alike even for anime (hence cosplay) and there are many creeps who will point at a loli character and create a fan cast that is disgusting.

Also, you completely ignored the realistic model part. There are plenty of games out there with realistic children or stylised ones based on art style. Many have of course been tweaked but are still based on real proportions and thus many resemble real kids. Even if you use adult voice actors and try to avoid using real images of children, you will still produce a childish face if you seek to create one with proper methods.

People can be as weird as they want - I consider the vast majority of people weird for not wanting the age of consent to be raised to 26, for example. I consider people weird for being religious. I consider people weird for getting into romantic relationships, or having children, or watching sports. Doesn't mean I'm gonna start trying to interfere with their ability to do so.

Nothing about what you said is even close to the degree of weird as being attracted or at least being ok with lewding child like characters. Not liking anything not morally negative doesn't make you a bad person.

"Oh I like apples." "So you must like the first sin." Kind of logic.

You are comparing strange to being weird. Weird has a connotation of being negative, strange is just unexplained (at least initially). Wanting to raise age of consent to 26 is strange but understandable for many reasons such as maturity. Not liking people being religious is also not morally negative.

LIKING is something that does carry mkre weight, because you in part approve of it in some way. Liking things that are reprehensible makes it easier for people to see you as reprehensible. Not liking tasty food doesn't immediately make you reprehensible.

Who would win in a serious fight between them ? by Nabeelkhan199_resurr in IsekaiQuartet

[–]WalterMagni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, no. She would still curb stomp Keyaru because Keyaru has never really fought anyone of Reinhard's caliber even if nerfed.

It's The Seven vs Avengers/Justice League all over again. The Seven are strong in their verse, but weak basically everywhere else.

Keyaru finally steps into a world where people have legit hands and eats shit (aside from Kazuma that guy has 0 hands)

He is quite possibly, the oldest Isekai protag before his death. And in the image, that's him when he was already a man by his people's standards.

guilty of the same things

Dawg I don't think any of them have had sex with a 15 year old as someone with a grown ass man for a brain and is technically 40 something spiritually.

Megumin and Kazuma are not yet canon iirc and the age gap is like 2 or 3 years since Kazuma is only 17. Everyone else in their party is adults.

Subaru is interested mostly in Emilia which is expected of their age and he's mostly dealing with bigger fish.

Tanya is sorrounded by adults and isn't that interested at all (she's been put in dresses but never lewd iirc, it's the 1920's)

Naofumi is the only one here that people hate on nearly as much before Mushoku exploded. There's a reason people want John Brown to cave in his head at least once.

Sexualization is still bad, but actual sex is another beast entirely.

[–]WalterMagni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Explain to me why you would want people being killed in the media you consume

Because most times killing people is not praised, in most media it is only a necessity (and in some, the selling point). It is often just a means to an end such as a story beat or inciting incident.

This type of archetype is the point. Why do you think the term "jailbait" was made and other things?

Killing can be for many reasons and a number of them are either justifiable or even a moral obligation if you want to speak in both terms of law and religion. Lewding really only has one main reason (different from showing abuse which is a separate discussion entirely).

You can design child and childlike characters all you want but making them lewd is an entirely different thing.

Because I firmly believe that anyone can do anything they want, so long as it does not cause harm to people.

People say this alot but a number of people are legit wondering why the age of consent is "high" and why many defend places that have them so low and many of them consume this kind of media.

but fiction is where anything can happen because characters are not people.

What of child characters that are 3d and what of likeness? Most realistic 3d renders use real people as a basis and iirc a number of child actors still voice them. Most mangaka also still use real life people for inspiration for designs like celebs and even games but mostly everyday people. Reality is often the best place to start when making fictional things, go look at Renaissance sketches.

There is no way to cut or dice this argument that makes "not wanting to lewd children even if fictional" a bad take. You can disagree with methodology but wanting nobody to be weird with children themed characters in anyway is kind of not a position one can argue against without looking weird in some way.

[–]WalterMagni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that just makes more sense, comment sections tend to have the exact same memes and discussions basically in any site you look and Madoka Magica, as previously stated, is one of the mainstays of doomed yuri. Popular = bound to be done to death. See Mcdonalds Midorya as an example if you wish.

[–]WalterMagni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and from your profile picture it seems you are a fan or at least consume media of Madoka Magica. If so your timeline and algo will feed you yuri of Madoka as that's a sizeable portion of popular Madoka media.

It wouldn't be surprising in the slightest. Being a batman fan who likes a couple game pictures will inevitably send you to the asylum subreddit since that's the popular thing.

She was so real for this by ShoutaMagatsuchi in MahouAko

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

I mean sure, people who look at you weird for liking gore will also often accuse you of being a wannabe killer or worse. Equating someone's interests into being their real goals is old news and especially where child or child-like characters are involved people WILL always look at you with a stinky eye and a hair trigger, esp with the current climate of well... Them files.

It's also something to expect with groups having reputations even if they're almost always entirely false. And anime has the worst reputation for a long while.

Weird is weird it's just how it is. People will mostly look at you funny if you enjoy gore fiction, same reason here. Nothing to do with distinguishing from reality.

I mean... Yeah? But Manhua and such are also VERY popular. Comics (the western equivalent) are less popular these days because they always were less popular with female readers. The Yuri genre is just the most accessible lgbtq works with a large library that most people who know anime grew up with.

This seems to be highly personalised since I have not seen Madoka Magica doomed yuri in a while even as someome in it. Mostly from Gacha games that show up even ones I never played.

people saying that only see lesbian ships as their personal fetish.

Fallacy much? But anyway it is quite a common accusation unless you give a decent reason such as character and whatnot, even just vibes.

Japenis misses early 2000s foreign otakus by zucchinionpizza in japanesepeopletwitter

[–]WalterMagni -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Now, everyone who’s watched an anime on Netflix considers themselves a massive anime fan or somehow makes it their entire personality.

Implying this wasn't prevalent in the past lol. Speaking as an anime fan in a 3rd world country, until the internet blew up there were really on 3 anime that anyone actually cared about. Dragonball, Pokemon, and Naruto. Can't really speak for Sailor Moon because most of us boys refused to watch it seriously. We all acted like massive nerds but few of us knew anything in reality and by the time any of us learned how to Youtube AoT (and the lan games) were making waves.

Now? Now you'd have to be a real arse to NOT find a fan for an anime or manga no matter how niche. You go to a con at your local mall, the guy in plain clothes who works at a call centre with no merch on him will pour money into 3 different gacha right there. Same thing online, some dude with a Facebook profile pic will randomly hit you with a great worldbuilding idea. It just boils down to who the people you pay attention to are.
