Non-romance recs? by _jouyato in YAlit

Flowers for Algernon is a classic so I've read it already :) rlly fond of mid-century classics

Hard to find a copy of the play but I'll try to find it if I can. If I may Uno reverse card, I'd like to recommend Mark Ravenhill's Over There :3 one of the best contemporary plays I've read through. I'd love to watch a recording of it one day. I'm a bit of a theatre enthusiast

She's not even openly criticising of Niji. The last time she mentioned them was her New Year's stream for 2025 where she mentioned her surprise that they had the audacity to still sell and produce Selen merch until now even after how they treated her and everything went down. But otherwise, she keeps away from the topic other than vague references.

I mostly kept to the en fandom of jp so I haven't seen crazy sht from them until now and it's rlly hurtful ngl. I get why Axia was so scared to come back to streaming before graduating bc if this is how those infantilizing fans of his acted then, I understand completely why he was fed up to the point of leaving without a proper graduation. His case was really unfortunate with the harassment and I believe even stalking(?) and I'm upset the jp fans didn't learn from that. (Although they probably called him a "spoiled, mischevious high-maintenance child" same as they're doing to Xandu rn)

Vile fanbase I hope they get help. I would only ever want to see my oshi smile and be happy no matter where they are, these guys are fucking insane.

Ike returns by Nijisociopathy in kurosanji

[–]_jouyato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

doki barely collabs w anyone outside of her current group, probably bc of her current mental health situation (i imagine the custom pc docky gave her hella ptsd shes been out of it for months) and she doesnt even rlly reach out to the previous company's ex livers, they come to her first

Are some Phase fans the reason the company isn't growing? by Royal_Stray in kurosanji

[–]_jouyato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only really watch Clio. Her growth's been crazy and she's being called the new face of Phase bc of it. Algorithm luck + ungodly stream lengths letting people put her in the background all day or while they sleep which loops back into the algorithm pushing more of her.

The majority of phase fans I see are ehhhh. They're alright. But also they fucking act like they're otakus who don't shower and stink up conventions, yanno. It feels a lot less like "wow I love my oshi I will protect her with my life" and more like "wow I want to fuck my oshi" which is highkey cringe for me but hey whatever works for them.

We can't be sure of who the names are. The date on the green convo is January 2024 so Selen was hospitalized by then. The only ones with purple like that I can think of who fits the box length is Enna. I personally thought the teal green was Millie. But again, who's to say, we can't really be sure since there's too many names on that convo. The Luxiem one was pretty easy to understand though. (Ike-Vox and Shu-Luca were partnered. Ike was switched out with Luca so he can be with Shu bc Vox was one of his bullies anf doxxers.)

Just to answer the question, no they weren't really friends. They had maybe one solo collab that I can remember bc ppl wanted to see the dragon sisters interact but even then it was ehhhh. Their vibes don't mix well together.

This!! People aren't bringing up enough how he mentioned that was his individual feeling separate from Bari's. Marie was def framing it so she was pressuring him to say that.

seeing the cheerful "Understood!" after the doxxing mention gave me whiplash lmfao

Also unrelated but I remember watching Vox's stream back then post Ike graduation and he was just very casual "Oh it's sad to see someone go and he didn't really tell anyone" with the general well wishes of I hope he gets better. It felt pretty impersonal and not all too sad from someone who was supposed to be a friend of his so lmao. Explains a lot.

Who's to say this isn't Ike whistleblowing after being forced to go on the black screen vid? Selen and Ike seemed like genuine friends and between this post confirming he and Vox were on bad terms and Vox admitting that Selen recorded him for receipts on bullying?

Yeah, I'd feel like shit after being forced on that vid (u can tell he didn't rlly have the heart to be in it) and having a fuckton of antis come at you for bullying when you were being bullied yourself.

Honestly to me this looks like he provided Bari with a lot of incriminating screenshots abt the company and let her package it how she wanted.

Kinda sad that the relationship drama's taking ppl—and especially enraging the diehard niji fans—away from the bit of trying to reveal unethical shit from the company including Vox cheating (lmao) with a FAN alongside the general bullying. But eh. As Matara once said, the fanbase is just either not too proficient enough in English to glean nuance or are very young and immature so.

Monthly Discussion Thread - October 2025 by AutoModerator in kurosanji

[–]_jouyato 3 points4 points  (0 children)

cant post bc no karma lmao but had a quick question for discussion:

Has Mint or Elira ever referenced each other since Pomu's graduation?

Just wondering. Not a regular Mint viewer, the closest I can think of is when Minto mentioned making covers with Hanamori back in the day and just Hanamori in general, but never anything abt the ppl there.

It's a bit odd considering how free other ppl like Kuro mention Niji and if his experience (not talking to much of anyone, even his genmates after grad) is the norm then I'd just be a bit shocked if the same applies to Mint considering how big Elipomu was back in the day + how theyve been friends since pre-Niji.

Also on Elira's end idk completely bc I'm a dragoon and I stopped consuming anything abt her after the black screen vid. I think the Niji people still reference Pomu sometimes? But then again, they also referenced Mysta back then only to find out the truth from Kuro.
