/ffs/ - Fujo Fandom Sperging

You didn't answer my actual point, but oh well. I've already accepted there isn't a good term for the archetype I enjoy. And with that we're at Bumplimit and need a new thread.

>>6250
in my life i saw more on the left side the yuri community than the yaoi one lol and usually people who bring up "canon this and that" are a) haters of the ship or the manga/anime b) chuds bothered by gay fanart

Where is the megane option?

Having a comment option on a bl appgame sounds so fucking funny lol, petition to implement this for all blvns

Please tell me someone else remembers this shit, the way this abridged series literally shaped my humour for the worse during my formative years lmao, every other day shit from this series just runs through my head and I have literally no one I can explain it to, I remember being distraught when the whole series was removed from YouTube, the first part about junjou egoist seems to be actual lost media as though the other parts have been salvaged that one is no where to be found

For anyone who cares, here's a YouTube video archiving a very short BL VN that was considered 'lost' until the video was uploaded. If anyone has an interest in it, you may want to save the video in case YouTube ever takes it down.

Sometimes you're perusing the bottom of the barrel of your fandom and see some wtf crossovers.

To be honest I could never get into crackship since the dynamic is all that makes ships attractive to me and you basically have to make up the whole dynamic yourself for crack and my autism won't let me drift away too much from canon anyway.
I am usually indifferent though but I can dislike it if it blows up like in one of my fandoms where crack stuff has overtaken the canon ships and the heavily hinted ships and none of the crack makes any sort of sense. It's entirely OC and headcanon based with the skins of existing characters so I cannot even view the characters as the ones I like. Maybe I lack the imagination, no idea.

Do you think if there was a perceived dynamic in a crossover ship you could get into it? Say criminal from one series, police officer from another, or is that still too far removed from source?

I don't hate Souda but so many people have this opinion it's pretty funny.

>What a cool design
>Dudebro personality

Lol

He could have been chill or a fun yankee but he was a comedic relief simp instead… I will say that I found his backstory kind of interesting though, I remember filling out his free time events and him being an annoying scamp and then suddenly hitting me with crazy shit about how he actually looks bland and his dad beats him

Both would be the best, but I care about the characters being interesting more, for me personally the characters being engaging on their own is more important than interactions, especially if most of the interactions are cookie-cutter, if they don't have an interesting story or origin even, I am not really going to be into them.
My favorite dynamic is antagonist/antihero/antagonist with redemption arc with hero, and often thankfully the nemesis gets a great design, even better than the mains.

What Garma clones are there in Gundam other than Gaelio?

There's Noin. She's female though… and in love with the Char expy

(Mods can delete this if it's against the rules)

>>5490
I forgot about her (since she doesn't die/have a fake death or gets betrayed).

I download a shitton of stuff everyday since.. 2002? or whatever and never used a VPN. Especially if it's anime stuff there is a 0 chance that anybody will ever give a shit.
They can't even do shit. 2004 or so I got a single letter from a attorney trying and failing to scare me because I downloaded actual new games so he told me I should pay a few thousands or will be sued. I googled it, google said it's a legally gray area, threw the letter into the trash bin and he never fucking replied.

I don't get this modern fear of piracy. Nobody gives a shit if you download subbed anime or manga or anything like that and most of the attorneys that tried to get you if you downloaded cinema shit are long since gone since they usually seeded themselves to even get the IPs, making them participate in the alleged crime.

Anyway I will never pay for a VPN.

>>5428
Only thing I got nabbed for was torrenting a recent Hollywood release one time. You don't even need a VPN for anime shit.

>>5428
>Anyway I will never pay for a VPN.
You don't need to. There are plenty of free ones, like Proton.
>the good old days when ban evasion on 4chan with VPNgate https://www.vpngate.net was easy

i like when the guys are portrayed as straight or on the asexual spectrum until they meet the other guy, so no…
the idea of them being gay isn't attractive to me. but to be fair i don't like when they act too moidy in general so the turn off is not appliable just to them being homosexual. i guess i just want an unrealistic and idealized version of guys. it makes things more romantic and hot

It's all about gap moe and well-rounded personality for me. I don't want them to come off as girly but for the sake of making myself clear I should mention that I don't think of coomer behavior or macho when I say "manly". The real hotness comes from contrasts. Like a serious, honorable and sophisticated dude that values etiquette but then over-reacts or gets emotionally confused when things don't go his way or when his potential love interest approaches him. Or super serious tradition-loving guy that throws an autistic tantrum sometimes.
A bit like the cartoon villains from the past to be honest lol. Threatening at first but then they turn out to be naive and do dumb shit or throw a fit until their super loyal totally not gay sidekick calms them down. Or an allegedly unemotional scientist with hidden insecurities.

There is a lot. But them being outright feminine/boyish kills my enjoyment since cuteness and emotions should be the top on the ice cake not the defining trait everything else is based around. That aside it's just cute and hot af seeing some scary dude softening for a certain other dude. It hits very differently from a blushing insecure softie being lovely dovey. That aside I cannot even relate to those types. Like I don't self-insert or anything but I at least have to vaguely understand a character to like him and I can't with those male and female moe blobbs anime use to have.

>It already happened that well hinted/pandered ships were erased and nobody here was shipping them because the official TL simply ungayed their dialogues and I believe that it wasn't even because of a homophobic translator but simply a BAD translator.
Do you have examples? I can't think of any but I English isn't my first language so I tend to only check English translations if there aren't any in my mother tongue.

>How is it possible that out of all these people they manage to fish out the few memetastic idiots respectively why is it only them applying for these jobs?
Blame Crunchyroll, they basically have a monopoly on Anime distributions in America and they work on the cheap, so they refuse to work with with union voice actors and dub directors and instead hire people from the Internet who who can afford to treat this like a youtube parody series instead of a job, kyle mccarley(a voice actor) talks about this and this method basically set a precedent for other companies as well

Damn, I know this was posted 2 years ago but this image sums up why I don't like typical seme/uke tropes. My ideal dynamic is for both of them to have dick butterflies *and* stomach butterflies. They're both men so I don't want one dude being like an 'innocent maiden' who doesn't get horny.

Buddhist clergy members are supposed to take a vow of celibacy, but I don't think a Japanese author would make much angst about it if they have such a history with prostitutes. But yeah Taoism and Shintoism would be pretty boring in terms of angst. If you really wanted angst and taboo, Islam would be the choice, but I think their fashion is ugly compared to Catholic Priests.

>>4726
Which is a shame because Middle Eastern style clothes that aren't rooted in religion are quite sexy imo

It's funny, just yesterday I was reading someone on another site shitting on Nu Carnival for being "male coded" and that only gay men could love it so it was clearly some kind of trans psyop.

>>4694
Because they simply can't explain in clear terms what their issue is. They just rely on value judgements they insist are universal.

>every fan who watched it on first airing has had ten years to level up their art
This'll be nuts.

>>4689
Trying to 'reclaim' a game, which was made made by the fujo menace, from the fujo menace is absolutely unhinged. Nu: Carnival is pretty upfront about the type of game it is. If you truly find fujoshi that offensive, then why are you so obsessed with a game made by them that specifically panders to them?

>I'd love to see how you'd grasp at straws, cherry-pick, and use mental gymnastics to argue why yuri is so "pure" and yaoi is not.
I've always found the mental gymnastics these types perform when justifying this belief to be frustrating. Like you, I've seen the argument that yuri is somehow more 'pure' and focuses more on the relationship development or whatever than yaoi, but I only find the relationship thing holds true if it's written by a woman. Most yuri I've read that's written by men has been… not that. The comparison feels so disingenuous because the women in yuri aren't any more realistic or well-written (unless, again, it was written by a woman); it's just that the person making the comparison has a vested interest in seeing their chosen genre come across as more respectable.

The word 'gross' is so funny to me. I think asparagus is gross, but I don't go on social media to complain about people who eat asparagus.
