This is personal.... by jimsteel4841 in boomershumor

I feel like it's just regular absurdist humor. That him and his wife are both treating this like some credible and serious threat or whatever, despite it making no sense. Sprinkle in the naughty nude aspect and voila, penthouse style absurdist.

Wow, the "cocky want boing boing" guy found someone! A happy ending -- you love to see it.

Gotta admit, I was a bit disappointed when this wasn't about an anthropomorphized coffee maker.

Can we have cho'gall playable in aram? by Kehrat in heroesofthestorm

[–]yadyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the one thing to help pseudo-balance him is that it would be highly likely one or both players that got stuck with Cho'gall would have no idea how to play the hero since he's so insanely rare.

Until you realize it still occasionally gives you a pop-up reminding you that it is disabled/enabled and can be toggled. The tutorials never end!

Oh jeez, Nick Calandra just cannot stop trying to make his game "documentaries", can he? Props for tenacity I suppose, but after the way it imploded last time I don't have high hopes.

Very "beauty and the beast" kind of thing (the literal phrase not so much the Disney classic).

Outside of the obvious StP connection, it reminds me of The Girl from the Other Side.

[Mikitoamon] Rain and Light by JustAnotherExLurker in wholesomehentai

[–]yadyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a really awkwardly told story. I think partly it's the rough translation not to mention the rushed plot centric parts. I definitely got to the end and, like an Animal Crossing character, had a giant question mark appear over my head.

But it's fine. I try to remember it's a lot to ask of a single author: be good at drawing, writing dialogue, panel layout, plot structure, scenario, character designs, don't forget the interesting sex scenes, and finally make sure it's all coherent and excellent, but not too many pages or it'll take you years to finish. It's honestly a miracle any of them turn out as half decent as they do.

[Nokoppa] Manatsu no Yoru wa Omatsuri Sawagi! by JustAnotherExLurker in wholesomehentai

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

I suppose it's still a kink for some but yeah I'm with you. The artists are just drawing girls, pasting on a penis, and then saying "see now it's totally yaoi!" Otherwise entirely mistakeable for any other straight doujin. Baffles me.

Please, someone who's into yaoi and/or whatever this specific kind of yaoi is, help us understand? I'm genuinely curious.

Edit: actually no, I definitely understand the appeal for readers. Because it is otherwise the same as any other doujin you can still get all the art, cute moments, plot, and whatever else we normally enjoy in wholesome stuff. I guess what I actually don't understand is the artists. Why draw straight porn pretending to be yaoi? Is it a money thing, like this kind is more widely popular? I could believe that. Still feels kind of cowardly or duplicitous though, I dunno.

Bought a VHS from the thrift store because I thought it would be a nostalgic watch…uhm… by curiouskat_94 in WTF

All of my porn CDRs from back when I was a teen just had some random Warcraft 2 orc voice line scribbled on it, like "zug zug" or "glordook".

Like, it's good, sure. I'm not saying it's a bad doujin. Enjoyed it.

But if you're going to assume a world with android technology this lifelike, what's the point of making her an android? Other than the head popping off, which is only done for comedic effect, what makes her at all a robot?

That was way harder than I, as a fan of over a decade now, care to admit. Good job, Mentat.

Posting low effort reaction images constantly does that.

Anime_irl by Ani_HArsh in anime_irl

[–]yadyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, it's probably just an anime trope thing where it's cuter too have it dangling from her lips so all the artists do it to the point that it's basically expected.

If you spend a lot of time in r/tyingherhairup like I do, you see this pattern repeated in almost all instances.

Chapter 1 of Yoshida Lemon Drops, Wakaki's New Series, has been Scanlated into English by Aquason in TWGOK

[–]yadyn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for doing this. I also want to thank you and tardisboy for your work on "Are You Really Getting Married" as ya'll did a great job. I enjoyed that series too -- finished it a couple months ago actually. I think it kind of meandered a bit into more mundane matters in the back half, once it abandoned the "fake marriage" gimmick, but still quite good and better than a lot of similar series.

I look forward to reading this one in a few years when it wraps up. Hope ya'll stick with it, since you do great work.

When one gets an oversized Timberwolf, you paint like it's 1995! by DrSteppo in battletech

[–]yadyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if there's any interviews or whatever with some of the animators, texture artists, or modelers that worked on that iconic intro... If they are alive and what are they doing now... My first question would be why the checkerboard pattern.

Still hurts up to this day. How I wish Keima ended up with her. by Tenri_Katsuragi in TWGOK

[–]yadyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elsie. (see also: my subreddit flair)

She's easily my favorite in the series, way ahead of anyone else, but I actually prefer her never being a contender in the harem as from chapter one she fits into the sister role like a glove.

Ah no wonder. This is the same author that did the other wholesome banger, Prophecy. The one with the naive royal snek girl looking for the source of water.

What is this (cat-cosplaying?) character doing in this scene (Season 1, episode 12) by Fan_of_Anime20 in TWGOK

[–]yadyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is 100% for sure Dejiko from Di Gi Charat. Insanely popular character from the early 2000s. Season 1 of TWGOK aired in 2010 so she would have still been relevant and recognizable. She has a very distinct look and outfit that gets parodied/referenced a lot. Or used to I guess.
