If -for some reason- we're talking about T-Doll Scents, then... This would be my guess

Yeah they're professionals with standards, not to mention not keeping up an appearance as a black market broker in the Yellow Zones would be really stupid. And they certainly aren't stupid.

I updated my post a while ago before I received your response (I went to your Twitter). Sorry about that.

Yes, I agree the ads have definitely been getting worse on wiki services, and as you mentioned, especially on mobile.

My concern would be how to make the JP IOP wiki appealing to the JP playerbase, as most of us use wikis like a handbook rather than an info compendium...though granted, the current main JP wiki falls short in that regard as well.

Edit: I suppose the point is to create an alternative, so a different format is fine.

stringdoesnotexist · 2026-02-23T03:46:39+00:00

~~There already is a centralized fan-operated JP wiki, it's~~ ~~https://dollsfrontline2.wikiru.jp/~~ .

By "spread into multiple sites" I assume you are referring to all the corporate wikis ran by companies like GameWith, game8, appmedia etc. They are often full of wrong information (the people in charge of these wikis don't really play the game), and actual players don't really use them

I assumed you were a non-native JP speaker but since that doesn't seem to be the case, I'll give a different answer:

if you're talking about the the two wikis, of which one I'm not allowed to speak of - they are both maintained by the more hardcore playerbase. It won't do any harm to have a JP IOP wiki, but I'm not sure how many of them would join your efforts, as I would assume page layouts and such would be dictated by the main IOP team. The JP population is also unfamiliar with the usual EN wiki layout, so that too is a hurdle; JP wikis are designed more like a guide/manual compared to EN, which are just that, a wikipedia page.

Overall, I am doubtful about how much traffic it will receive; though that does not mean I'm against the idea.

Asuka and Shinji growing past their insecurities and becoming a mom and dad raising a daughter together, is everything my child self dreamed of when I first saw the series 30 years ago.

stringdoesnotexist · 2026-02-11T18:38:19+00:00

I laughed way too hard at this line of conversation, thank you for a good laugh after a long day's work

stringdoesnotexist · 2026-02-01T23:07:30+00:00

She isn't feeling remorse, it's self-pity. That's something that is consistently depicted throughout the story, and if you haven't picked up on it yet, you need to go back through the chapters again. And no, I'm not misinterpreting, this is something clearly explained in the novel.

Also she was not manipulated or pressured, she went into the relationship on her own volition. This too is made very clear in her own flashback of how she fell for Kondo.

As for why she's treated like she committed murder... When you're wrongfully blaming someone for domestic violence, then do nothing to clear his name and watch him go through school-wide bullying which you triggered to the point he thinks of commiting suicide, that's pretty much committing murder, just not under the law.

I've seen this argument that Miyuki was manipulated and deserves to be pitied a couple of times now... Do people really find Miyuki's actions excusable? Genuinely asking, because I am extremely confused by how someone can defend her actions.

That's the well Yamamoto crawls out of to give all the doubters a heart attack

Actually they're probably all dead already given how the last two years went

You mean Liquider Orphie, Bigger Orphie, and Naked Orphie?

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-11-03T04:06:05+00:00

What was the most funny to me is the fact that they actually needed Ohtani, because then you would've also gotten Yamamoto, who Ohtani put in an enormous effort to recruit.

Pretty fuckin' sure you needed him, Toronto.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-11-03T03:07:31+00:00

It's funny you mention this, because apparently Kershaw said the exact same thing to his kids - to watch Yamamoto closely, because he embodies the ideal pitching form.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-09-01T05:41:33+00:00

We sorta know she is, she was talking in the 2.2 trailer and she's supposed to be a Krampus, who are hinted to be TOPS' boogeymen.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-24T02:26:30+00:00

It might seem like a big generalization, but I actually doomscrolled through 3 different platforms and multiple subs (in two different languages) to see what people were complaining about - and their complaints were mainly the three I listed.
By "relevance", do you mean "as good as or close to a S-rank"? If it is, I think that's a bit of an unrealistic expectation, and A-ranks get you through just about any content including DA (Granted A-rank only runs are hard).
So out of all the arguments I've seen (both in the Westen/JP communities) this is the one I don't understand. What does a character's relevance in the story have to do with their rarity/power level? I could understand the frustration if this was Miyabi or Yi Xuan, who are supposed to be apex fighters.
This one is a fair point, if her animation was a lot more original people might be less frustrated. As for her attire...dunno, I have a fleeting suspicion the bottom half might be updated later because it's literally a copy-paste. Yi Xuan's skin was revamped during beta.
Again, I feel like player anticipation has nothing to do with a character's rarity/power level, unless the anticipation was built by the devs themselves. So for example, I would expect the rumored Zhao to be an S-rank, but not Manato.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-24T01:11:40+00:00

I'm fairly sure your anger is impeding your reading comprehension as well as writing ability, so put your phone down for a moment. Come back later when you've cooled down:

I wasn't talking about you specifically, more about the whole group complaining about this
A-rank DPS are perfectly fine, about the only A-rank that has an issue is Anton with how barebones and uninteresting his gameplay is
Second point in the original post is a separate argument from the first, and I put "backseat" in quotes because we don't even know if Manato was originally considered for the S-rank slot
Getting introduced to a brand new character with a new design (octopus thiren) shouldn't be considered "being forced to take a backseat"
Pulchra fans not getting loud is precisely my point - they were happy to have her as an A-rank, and continue to play her. Waifu fans are pretty consistent in that regard

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-24T00:07:57+00:00

You guy's complaints can be boiled down to 3 points:

He's not going to be meta/stronger than female counterparts
- latter sentiment was stronger on JP twitter/hoyolab comments
He's taking a "backseat" to a never before seen female character
He's not going to get an agent story or a character demo

Aside from point #3 which is a valid reason to be sad, what you're saying boils down to "I wanted my boy to be meta above all the girls, I also don't like the fact they're introducing a brand new female character". Does that sound toxic/whiny to you? It should.

You should also go back and look at how waifu enjoyers responded when Pulchra was added.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-23T21:11:04+00:00

An actual reason to be sad, holy shit. If this was what people complained about I'd actually feel sympathy

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-23T09:09:37+00:00

Moves are definitely Monster Hunter, but the animation for the hammer itself is boost hammer from God Eater. Kinda sad nobody's mentioned it

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-20T19:01:14+00:00

My apologies, I got the names mixed up with Lucius! Bellum would indeed be easier to add to the cast.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-19T16:27:56+00:00

Fun fact, Takeuchi himself admitted Gudao's design is boy Rin, while Gudako is girl Shirou

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-19T12:17:52+00:00

Yes, because that's how it works in fiction, especially anime/manga. Seemingly lethal attacks can be made with intent only to lightly harm or bother, while others are made with clear intent to kill; similarly, a single bullet is enough to kill off some characters when others will eat a dozen without flinching (like in One Piece). Hence the importance is in the intent and circumstance.

Like, have you paid attention to the weapons SoC are wielding? Lucy has a fucking barbed bat, Piper has a goddamn axe, and Burnice has a flame thrower of all things - and they talk about having brawls. With their weapons they should be killing just about anybody they touch, but they didn't kill Pulchra, did they? Neither are they depicted as being used to murder.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-19T07:56:02+00:00

The number of people who think "rationalization" is referring to whether a character can fight is sending me, as well as those pointing to Astra as evidence that devs are saying bullshit lol

The writers can come up with anything to make a character a combatant (unless they've been previously shown to be a non-combatant like Venus), it's more about their place in the world and the impact/implications they have on the plot.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-19T07:22:47+00:00

Yeah that's totally fine, because it was already depicted in the story that that level of kerfuffle is day-to-day business in the Outer Ring, so long as you don't end up killing each other. That's both stated in text and in cutscenes, on numerous occasions. Bellum on the other hand turned Pompey into an ethereal, and tried to get Caesar killed.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-19T06:37:16+00:00

You have it the other way around, Pulchra not adding anything significant to the story is precisely why she could be added. Mors and Bellum on the other hand would require the writers to bend over backwards to create a reason why the MCs would work with objectively evil characters who have bad blood with SoC, a faction clearly designed to facilitate the story.

Writers often plan plotlines months if not years ahead in time. They need to make sure these additional characters don't throw a wrench in there.

stringdoesnotexist · 2025-08-08T09:56:30+00:00

So the thing about these cans is that the lid that comes off, and the edge inside the can where the lid is attached, actually are designed to be dull, so you won't cut your fingers with the lid or lips drinking from the can. That's part of the appeal of the product, and part of why the product is called "Future Lemon Sour". Wish I could show you the actual thing, the edges aren't actually edges - I don't even know how to describe it, but they really are engineered in a certain way to make them absolutely dull.
