/f/ - Fandom Generals

I genuinely worry that Rowling has become increasingly politicized on issues other than tra's and I think some combination of wokies and right wing GCs she associates with will give her completely wrong impressions and she will make public comments about how disgusting Fujos are

>>3308
I mean does her opinion on fujos or shipping matter? JKR is way too late to stop the fic train, and honestly considering how loud Anne Rice was back in the day I think if she had a serious issue with it or the personality to be swayed to dislike it she would have already spoken on the matter.

>>3308
If I recall, Rowling made a statement years ago about how she was okay with fanfiction, and understands it's an integral part of fandom. Plus, even if she did have a problem with it, she'd probably also have an issue with Dramione shippers and such. Like the other anon said, Anne Rice was very vocally against it, and even that did little to deter the fandom. I really wouldn't give it another thought.

>Favorite Pokemon boy(s)?
Bill is my all time favorite! Picking one from each other region though I'd choose: Bugsy, Maxie, Looker, Colress, Clemont, Nanu, and Avery. Haven't played SV yet, but my Pokeani choice would be James.

>Favorite game/region?
Favorite game is FRLG rare good remake and I like the expanded content added like the Sevii Islands. I think Kanto might honestly be my favorite region as well from a purely layout/gameplay perspective, but ignoring that Hoenn the best aesthetically with the tropical beach vibes.

>Favorite male protagonist?
Red or Hilbert, both are cute and work equally well when interpreted young or old.

>First Pokemon ship?
Probably Red/Blue? I'm almost positive it was my first brush with Pokemon yaoi but I don't know if I ever earnestly "shipped" them or if was more me being a young ravenous yaoiholic.

>Current Pokemon ship(s)?
I ship best boy Bill with Surge because of Pokespecial characterization. I like Nanu x Guzma because of police/hoodlum dynamic. Colress/Ghetsis might as well be canonical evil boyfriend as far as my delusions are concerned. And recently I've been rewatching the anime and my interest is peaked on James/Brock since they have a lot of similarities and seem to get along on the sideline while everyone else is bickering.

>Favorite Pokemon boy(s)?
N, Hilbert, Steven, Volo (even though I haven’t played his game kek), Ethan
>Favorite game/region?
HGSS
>Favorite male protagonist?
Hilbert
>First Pokemon ship?
Can’t remember kek
>Current Pokemon ship(s)?
Isshushipping, Reguri, Steven x Brendan/Ruby
>Do you ship the Pokemon themselves?
Nah. If I had to pick one to smash though I’d go with Deoxys

I miss the real Mantis every week, he was just a chuuni boy.

Also the second pic awakened something in me, Azi x Ansatt or reverse would be cash.

Ooooh, that's an interesting thought. This demon world arc has been great for these new interesting character designs.

>>3234
Well damn, these demons sure have been getting killed off quickly. Kind of a shame.

Ishikawa pushing through with more story bangers even when shes no longer the lead writer, bless her heart cause dawntrail msq is mid and it really needs her blessings!

that new gathering top instantly cancels out everything that went wrong with dawntrail hot damn

>>3290
Yeah it's been a big hit with the artists I follow on twitter. It also bears an uncanny resemblance to a modded top that I've seen around. I really need to get it for my own viera once I get in the mood for crafting and gathering again.

im really basic but i love usuk

Do you think Hetalia will ever get a reboot/continuation or would that be too risky at the moment?

>>3143
Nothing wrong with a basic ship, but I prefer America with Canada.

long shot but does anyone have a folder of twitter & pixiv fanart by this artist? eji_gakuki

Everything except for the last 4 or 5 posts are gone on their socials.

I'm giving the manga anothe try after giving up on the anime because the pacing felt weird to me, I didn't realize I dropped the anime so long ago kek.

>>3279
The anime actually cut out a lot of manga content and had to adapt them later in the form of OVAs which explain the weird pacing. IIRC they only intended to animate 12 episodes plus 1 OVA to be sold alongside a manga volume but the anime was well received which allowed them to greenlight a 2nd season.
The Barato arc is highly underrated and is best appreciated if you've seen the movie Yojimbo. Plus I love me some Ogata and Hijikata screentime

I'm not surprised, I suspected this because of the pacing. That's a shame because iirc Golden Kamui is a very successful manga and it's long enough to have longer seasons imo.

The first two solid games are pretty difficult but starting with MGS3 I think they are pretty standard difficulty even if you suck at stealth. Honestly if you're the kind of person who wants to play them chronologically you'd start with the easiest games and work your way up to more difficult ones.

Granted thats not counting the original 2D ones which are miserably tricky lol.

The old man yaoi is peak though and the games are insanely homoerotic, there's an hour compilation sonewhere on youtube of nothing but gay MGS moments.

Is it this one?

That's the one! Even longer than I remember, and most of this isn't even taken out of context the series is just unabashedly homoerotic.

Granted I think a lot of it is played for comedy, but a gay joke is still gay I always say.

Yeah, he's a character from CCA. If the AU Kamille joined Char in CCA, he would be working alongside him. A love-triangle involving Char with lots of backstabbing would be even funnier.

>>2865
I never even shipped Kira with anyone. He was just too bland, especially in Destiny.

In an alternative universe, CCA is a TV series and brings back Kamille as Hathaway's antagonist.

I've always wanted to get into Enstars but don't know how especially since I am really bad at rhythm games, any nonnas have recommendations? Are the specific stories to read or anything? Is it one of those fandoms you can enjoy the content without playing?

>>3249
There's an anime by David Pro which is fun and how I got into the franchise that'd be my recommendation for a starting point. Besides that check out the official manga.

>>3251
The anime was surprisingly engaging even with a bullshit setting and no characters I particularly liked, I watched a whole cour of it before I knew. I thank Hishida for it.

I've been so obsessed with him for so long! There is literally no other character that's perfect for me. He's charming, powerful, sadistic, and loves cats.

>>2561
Haha sorry I never saw you response nonna. You should totally read Afterschool Charisma though. Even if you don't find ship/husbando fodder its just plan good.

>>3220
Sebastian really is the perfect butler-type character. Man has style, and is easily the best part of BB.

>>3220
I don't think there's a butler character in anime that's as iconic as Sebastian. Yana's a genius. He's cool, beautiful, cunning, he is the "butler/servant is a demon" trope but he's not flat despite us not even knowing his backstory.
