Oh you're right, I guess I associate it more with resurrection but that definition fits.

>>4392
I saw someone calling it Persona 4 Rewind as a joke before the real title was announced and after the remake was leaked, it would have works as well imo.

>>4361
super excited for the remake. my only concern is the soundtrack, i hope they don't remix the original osts too much

not a big yu/yosuke shipper myself but having a romance SL would be a step in the right direction for the franchise. it would be great if other males were romanceable too though. not that i have high hopes for atlus doing any of this though

fandom are sleeping on more
i need to see him fuck and be fucked

Gonna check out this game, anything I should be aware of before going in?

>>4454
In what regards, gameplay? I'd say having a good archetype lineup is good imho, always level your archetypes no matter how useless you think they may be. Also, personally, I'd advice against converting MAG to Money as a newbie (I did this a lot) because MAG is quite scarce.
For fujo stuff? It all depends on your tastes really, a lot of people tend to like Strohl initially and not move from him. He cute though.

So girls how are we feeling (lol)

>>4452
I'm following a JP fan who is retweeting every shipper cope post and they're sounding a little desperate.

>>4110
Lockon was such a waste. Another character that was made for fujo tastes and got hijacked by the loli fanbase. He was gorgeous. He needed to teach Tieria about love.

>>4413
Who is the wolf nonna?

>>4414
Faramor from AFK Journey. TBQH he's not my husbando but I thought it'd be funny to see what the AI has to say. Seems like someone's been training it on gay furry twitter kek

I share it. Was not expecting to come away shipping something after watching it but they are just so good.

I got a warning saying my images were over the file size limit so I guess that's an excuse to post October's popup art with the Draluc birthday pic.

6/10 is Ronadora day so might as well make an update post. The 10th Anniversary exhibition opens on the 27th, Yokohama advanced tickets are sold out, Tokyo have not gone on sale yet. We've had hospital merch, Holmes merch, JRPG merch, suspiciously wedding suit anniversary merch with flowers meaning "companions for life", a rerun of the ostrich hula daki merch in Toho Cinemas for no apparent reason (https://x.com/emuzu100/status/1923190377693184390), definitely not condoms (https://x.com/johnwakawaii/status/1929115715082076623), and the best John tshirt (https://x.com/johnwakawaii/status/1931184342753284468).

A second drama CD is on preorder for September, again two acrylic keyrings as bonus, and Animate preorders get a bonus track but the price is 1300yen more than other stores. The blurb says some hunters that didn't make it into the anime will be featured this time, and a small murmur got excited that we might get Helsing cast, but if they have any intention of a third anime season they'd be saving the full sword/Tama arc for that and using Her Majesty's request as a half episode flashback at most. I'm still hopeful, there's enough manga volumes to advertise even while Bonnoki is on medical leave, and the merch is still making money.

Tickets for the Tokyo exhibition opened today, and the site broke because there were too many people. Tons more merch has been added to the listings, including Draluc cookies, which has led to tweets about licking and swallowing your oshi. It's stupid but what I want most are the tiny prints of Bonnoki's sketches of the old blood trio and the guildmaster. That art is really neat. The Nagiri shirt is cool too, we need more serious Nagiri merch, but the text is embarrassing out of context ("World's Strongest Vampire").

Man… ;-;
Ike was so sudden I'm more numb and shocked than upset. I wish him the best. It's heartbreaking to see how many people are mocking him.

I'm so proud of Fuuchan though. He handled graduation the best I've ever seen. I had trouble being sad until after the final stream. Now I just feel melancholic since I watched him every morning. Forever my kamioshi. ❤️

>>4127
I was really truly in love with him and I feel sicker and sicker each week as it sets in, especially because I'm too selfish to accept it's going to make him happier in the long run.

>>4271
I'm so sorry that you're suffering so much anon. I'm not good at comforting people myself, so I'll share what Fuuchan said on his graduation announcement.
"Let yourself feel it. You're feelings are valid and you should let yourself feel them. You're feelings are valid, even if others might not understand why it means so much to you." You might not feel so right now but I'm 100% sure Ike cherished the quildren and enjoyed streaming for you all. It's okay to feel sad and mad he left and that he should have stayed. I know it's not the same but watch other for his pl account Xanadu and of course, there's the youtube archive ragtag, some videos work still.

Just think this is all thanks to a certain someone who couldn't be more mature and responsible lol. I'll never forgive her for what she did to everyone. The holo livers are so lucky they have considerate co-workers and a toxic fanbase who won't let you say anything bad about them

Father x son?

Welp, Thunderbolt fantasy is officially over. Just watched the finale movie. I know the time loop ending with Shou was already set up previously but it was still wild as hell that he's just confirmed to be the time traveling child of his two best friends. Also my fujo heart soared when he and Rin had that final banter moment as they descended into the demon realm. All around I had a great time. I'll miss my puppets but I know all good things must come to an end.

>>4349
That concept art made my day wow
>I'm continually let down by what happens to the "main girl" in shonen-tier media
Same, I'm also tired of really lame useless female characters. I just want a good story. I would rather just have female characters not exist in situations like this vs them just existing to be love interests on the sidelines. Imagine how much worse Hunter x Hunter would be if there was just two girl characters waiting around for Gon and Killua to return from their adventures or something lmfao.

>>4350
I like SoRiku stories that go into Riku's jealousy and even superiority complex over Sora kek. I want to inject internalized homophobia and denial of his attraction to Sora into my headcanon narrative
>there's no way I could be attracted to Sora
>Sora's worse than me
>but I wish I could be like Sora
>there's no way I could be gay
this makes me want to write fic again with some sort of Giovanni's Room-type style headfuck kek, but I'm not super great at writing

>>4342
>The Sora, Riku and Kairi trio is slightly better simply because it's carried by Sora and Riku's dynamics.
That trio is barely even a trio. Riku and Kairi are not friends and their relationship revolves around Sora only. They are both too jealous of the other's bond with Sora to be friends properly. Riku was worried about her in KH1 but only out of guilt over what he's done. In KH2 he helped her out but was not agonizing over cutting her off from his life like he was with Sora. He could have visited her anytime at the islands, but he only did so when Sora woke up. In the paopu scene in KH3 she disregarded Sora's worries that Riku was distancing himself just so she can have her special moment with him. If Kairi and Riku were actual friends she wouldn't let Riku isolate himself like that. When Riku thought he wasn't worthy of being around Sora anymore and was fine with never seeing him again, Sora searched for him everywhere, reassured him that they're still friends and dragged him back to the islands. Riku and Kairi never go to such lenghts for each other.
Sorry nonna but the BBS trio at least care about each other equally.

>>4350
SoRiku are the central relationship in the series (not SoKai).
Days/KH2 is my favorite era for them because it's so angsty. Anytime I think that Sora doesn't know that Riku spent an entire year keeping watch over him, sacrificing his body in the process, I want to cry. Riku's love for Sora is so big and Sora will probably never know the full extent of it. In KH2 Mulan's world, Riku seeing Sora and not being able to resist sparring with him because he misses him so much just fucking gets me. Sora recognizing Riku just from his presence in that fight because he knows him so well… tell me that's not true love.

>>4351
Sometimes I think I wouldn't mind SoKai being canon only because that would intensify Riku's jealousy and quiet yearning but then I stop myself because it would be too cruel for him. He should enjoy beautiful lovemaking with Sora everyday of his life.

>>4351
Exactly, when I think of games with solid romance, Final Fantasy X and Shadow Hearts come to mind right away. The female leads in those stories play active roles, which really helps the emotional arcs.
In general thou I think the Final Fantasy series does a better job handling female characters, even though I still really like Aqua and Namine.

I also like to imagine that when they were younger, Riku was a bit hesitant about letting Kairi into their friend group. It always felt like Sora and Riku mostly stuck to each other, and Kairi was kind of the newcomer. So it's fair to say that, with all of Riku’s jealousy toward Sora, he never fully embraced that trio dynamic Sora seemed to want. It’s kind of funny how both Riku and Kairi just want Sora for themselves, while Sora’s just off being his usual clueless self.

Holy shit, thank you. I'm actually the person who posted the original source image, but I lost track of who the artist was. I also owe you my life, kekk.

To KaiLen shippers: what are your personal headcanons for the two? I like how they look together but for as long as I've liked Vocaloid I still struggle to come up with scenarios for them. Due to the lack of canon my interpretation of their relationship varies from song to song and I can't really think of anything. I would like to hear your thoughts..
