>>34447
love ur taste nona, similar to mine :)

This song makes me emotional.

When I listen to this song I do a dramatic performance in my head.
There's a massive side of me that wants to do a drag performance of it at a local gay bar I frequent kek. It's so embarrassing

some real emo

just finished this, thanks for recommending

pretentious main character but good.

worst book i ever read. couldnt even finish it bc it was so bad. i had high expectations bc everyone was praising but it just sounds like its trying so hard to be deep and profound but fails miserably. plus i hate it when u read a book and can tell it was written a few years ago by the vocabulary and the way the writer forms sentences. it has absolutely no substance. to end it on a positive note the only thing i kind of liked is the portrayal of the failed american dream and how western societies became so individualistic to the point where they become kinda non-human and dystopian. i felt like there should be more focus on critiquing that, but it was just so dry. u learn nothing from the book. a waste of my time. theres so many good books to choose from and idk why so many people landed on this bs. no hate to anyone who liked it, i just personally found it dry

>can tell it was written a few years ago by the vocabulary and the way the writer forms sentences
Haven't read it, but what do you mean by this? Unless period slang was used, how is it different than a book being written 10, 15 years ago? (instead of just a few)

not exactly consumer media, but workout influencers who are obviously bored rich narcissists

there's a great amount of influencers who are nice people with good intentions that look great and everything, who have great development stories and helpful information.
But there's just a great amount of douchebags and lying animals occupying the fitness sphere I feel is more prevalent this decade due to the ease of social media presence/attention.
the worst ones are the ones who have barely any skin in the game and have just maintained a vain body most their lives and then after a little bit of exercise and development they feel entitled to spew garbage and toxic material online. Lord knows daddy bought them a branding line and everything. I hate how superficial everything is

Honestly, a bunch of my friends started playing it. And I thought that I would try it out because of that. But every single character has literally the most nail on chalkboard voice, I can't listen to them at all. Everyone sounds like they have 10,000 pounds of phlegm up their nose holes. They talk like Victorian British freaks from the 1800s. Simultaneously bored and offended. How can you take any character seriously?

I played BG2 and I don't remember any character sounding this bad. Also all the freaks wanting to fuck the vampire? I don't even know who the vampire is! I just know everyone's running around wanting to fuck it. It just gives very Tumblr vibes

is that the one with the geriatric haired mfer being memed as the next sexyman? he is being astroturfed.

Bruh. Romancing the vampirefaggot (don't judge me ok I hadnt had a vidya romance since Solas in Dragon Age 3 and really wanted to lose my vidyavirginity and he was the only 'evil' option for me) was SO ANNOYING i had to use a fucking walkthrough to basically do a bunch of boring sidequests just so I could pick a specific dialogue option to get him to like me. OVER AND OVER AGAIN. By the time I got to the sex scene I didnt feel any satisfaction whatsoever.

Plus, the level designs suck, the characters are so boring that I didnt even give a fuck about the weak ass plot, and even with tutorial mode on it doesn't tell you that you can manually disable turn-based mode. Which resulted in me being stuck in turn-based mode AFTER having completed a particular quest which was REALLY annoying to do in turn-based mode bc there was no combat, we were rescuing some people from a fucking fire.

Honestly only got the game bc it can be played co-op and my bf and I like to play games together. Turns out our characters couldn't even interact with one another, much less have sex. Meaning if we wanted to see a sex scene, we both would have to cuck each other. This led to us referring to the game solely as "CucksGate3".

0/10, not only the least fun ive had playing a game but also probably the most irritating game ive ever played. DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE

I watched helluva boss because of the shock value. I liked the first episode then just lost interest. Its too 'vile' (I know the main theme is hell and its supposed to be vile and vicked but to me its just bad taste) and the show reminds me of what I hate in people.

Utena becomes much easier to understand, if you think about it as
sort of metaphor for Japanese society and generally modernity; it's really quite the worthwhile show.

Rose of Versailles and Oniisama E are also quite worthwhile ones, especially if you want similar to Utena shows, which are sometimes referenced by Utena very obviously.

Can you explain in depth

Thanks for this!

This post is perhaps of use:

and this might be of interest also.

The latter unpacks many of the referenced and their relationship to the show, although one can disagree on some of the takes on themes.

Enjoy!

The 90s musical is also online publicly, if anyone would like to check it out.

I'll try it out. Im used to just watching the things that are the most shilled so finding some potential hidden gems is awesome.

I love Tangomushi! She covers old Japanese horror franchises with great retrospectives and commentary. Her videos are long and well researched so they don't come out too often but I'm always checking to see if she's posted something new. She takes these games from an unabashedly woman's perspective too which is nice to see cause most of these games deal with female-specific horrors. Haunting Grounds is an example of a game where her commentary exceeds anyone I've seen cover the game cause she had read so many more sources and being a woman she discussed the scares much better.
Another game channel I really like is "fakegamergirl" who does sims 4 content. It's cute and hilarious. She reviews dlc and creates cute builds and things

>>33113
This is what I was looking for. does anyone know any others like this one?

>>32911
is other forms of media less paraditic for you?

https://youtube.com/@CreepPodcast?si=cy_QAXXDyAYfJ4NM

I have been really liking creepcasts content, wendigoon & papa meat are a funny combo + chill long form videos

i love watching mina lee's and olisunvia's video essays, i also watch cody ko's reaction videos that he uploads daily. also watch not even emily, kurtis conner, tara mooknee, vlad ncl, chad chad when they upload

>>30253
This. I also hated the change in Testament's design to appeal both to Twitter users by making him some non-binary shit and to horny-ass man by making him have a more female appearance.
This change was completely unnecessary, he had a much more androgynous appearance before.

Based.

Also based. It's so cringe and disgusting to see so many coomers simping to this bitch even though she's a horrible person.

>>30195
>pixie dream girl
I agree, but I don't necessarily hate her for that.
I don't know if I'll continue reading the manga, but as far as I've read, all she does is act like some pixie dream girl and doesn't contribute anything to the cosplays while Gojo works his ass off on everything. This bitch doesn't even want to learn a thing or two from him and that's the most frustrating part for me.

The best part of this manga is the useful cosplay tips, I would love to read more manga on the subject.

>Can't believe this shit was made by a woman. Goes to show that women in Japan are being brainwashed by mysogyinsts and sexist men to be their sex dolls and doormats
Nah, buddy. It's simply a reflection of the otaku industry that shows how resorting to ecchi and waifubaits is an excellent old tool for gaining great popularity and sales.
Furthermore, there are also women who can be sexist as much as some men, even more so, as absurd as it may sound.

>>31093
Thank you! I never understood her appeal, I guess her design but even then I felt like Ann, Haru, and even Futaba are cuter and have more personality even with Haru’s shoehorned and sped through story.
It’s supposed to be a bikers outfit hence her persona but it didn’t make sense if her inner rebellion is that and she becomes a fucking cop.
Tbh she felt like a copy paste design of my beloved Akira

I hate the entire cast of this show as well as everything related to Vivizie Pop. I also can't stand her fans everywhere on the internet.

>>27039
It's so bad, I argued with a "friend" that wasn't even into kh because she wanted to defend the opinion of her weeb friend who just found kh and was so into Xion lol
Kingdom Hearts had so much potential but was pulled apart by pickmes and cringe fans, I only liked the fujos in that fandom.

Okay DDR Exreme for PlayStation 2 and you can do the dance and see the music video sung by “her” (really Mary McGlyn but she lip syncs) for “You’re Not Here”. There’s also a song from SH4 and other Akira tracks.

>1-3 are probably the only games worth their salt
I know this is an old post, but for me 4 is pretty good. For me it was the one that scared me the most. The bad part about the game is that you have to go back through all the maps in a scourt mission, but the game and story are good

>>24582
The only people who treat SH2 as the greatest thing since sliced bread are the game jouros, the same morons who think TLoU2 is some empowering story. Everyone else treats the first or third game as the best, with honorable mention to The Room.

>>24636
>I've seen a lot of people say sh3 is shallow and basic in comparison to 2
The only context I've seen that comparison being made was in regards to how you explore the same area of Silent Hill as in the second game.

SH3 is the best! I love Heather so much

>>24730
They did, horror games have always been extremely popular with women but the devs don't know that so it's marketed towards teen boys like always

>NOOO YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO SHOW YOUR REAL FACE!!!
Moids would experience existential crisis if they discovered that a real living human being is behind their fictional parasocial girlfriend.

>>32563
Most of those comments seem genuinely worried about her not upset about the real girl.

Though you're probably right that most of them wouldn't care without the avatar.

I’m a VTuber. I hate moids even more since I started, I’ve never been that close to a male community before and sometimes I can’t understand their logic and how they act. But it’s good money, and I actually have fun playing games and being silly.

>>32563
>most of the comments are expressing concern for her privacy or employment
I don't understand what this picture is supposed to demonstrate.

>>32552
There's a niche for most. Botan and Selen (now Dokibird) have plenty of fans, and they're absolutely cracked gamers
