>>8185I don't think your ships are weird nonnie, but maybe you feel that way because these fandoms you've listed are not very popular. If you commission some big artist to make content for any of them, I'm sure a lot of us /wes/ fujos would love it. Everyone and their mother used to ship a teenage boy with a yellow triangle back in the day.

>>8179>>8185I was actually thinking about how beautiful old school western animation is and how's there's little fujobait in Disney stuff sadly. Disney executives should make a visually beautiful original animated film for everyone and normies to enjoy but with pretty boys for fujos and tumblr theater girls. Spawning a fandom shouldn't be this difficult.
No.8192
>>8191I feel like it's a general symptom of Disney focusing too much on making family friendly
entertainment with an eye to marketing. Older Disney productions worried themselves about fully forming characters and building setting details, and would get so involved in the work they'd let odd quirks remain in. I think that's the kind of stuff that makes it easier to inspire fandom exploration. It's more lively, an illusion of greater depth by having pointless extra traits that achieve little but exist nonetheless. When you cut the fat too much and aim everything at the clearest goals you lose that spark.

>>8194No offence but when ever I hear this, it usually means your inspired by late edgy retelling that claim to be traditional fairy tales, most traditional fairy tales aren't that deep or really that dark, the alleged "darkness" is usually just for the sake of a joke that kids might laugh at
No.8204
>>8203That's exactly what I'm saying, I love the classic ones with very black-and-white morality. Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, The Pied Piper, and Sleeping Beauty are my favorites.
I don't mind the "edgy" dark fantasy subversions but I do wish more modern fairy tale inspired works tried to be more fanciful, the idea that realism = good is what keeps me from getting interested in a lot of newer fantasy.

>>8204I'm not a moralfag, but I'm pretty your just into shotashit with some fairy tale aesthetic which japs seems to love, I'm not going to judge but it's not that deep or based off real fairy tales

>>8205The aesthetic yes that is indeed what my post was all about. I'm not morally opposed to shota, but I'm not sure how you got that from my posts haha, I like men of all ages though.
I wasn't expecting to be disparaged for saying I like fantasy more closely related to Goldilocks than Game of Thrones. No I'm not saying modern stuff is the "real" thing because it's not folk tales. In the same way an Isekai isn't LoTR even though it might borrow elements and is in the same tradition.

>>8203>the alleged "darkness" is usually just for the sake of a joke that kids might laugh atwhat does this even mean? why would the darkness of a story be jokey? wouldn't the tone be serious?
No.8209
>>8204I think I get what you mean, nonna. Actual fairytales are written in a pretty simple and dreamlike way without much exploration of the world or explanation for characters' actions. Realism is best for parodies like Shrek. I also want to see more folklore creatures portrayed as closer to their roots instead of the millionth 'our vampires are different' and 'our bakeneko/kitsune is a generic kemonomimi'. There are some pretty cool elements of some creatures that you rarely see portryed.
No.8210
>>8208Think of it like this, old fairy tales would have things like a child sticking his thumbs in pies and the end of the story would be his thumb being cut off in an ironic way and the village children would laugh about it. These stories are certainly more physically violent but are not "dark and twisted" as some people claim.

I love BL visual novels. I love getting bad endings and seeing different directions the story can take. I also like how VNs are more able to balance story with the romance than most manga or anime I try. Sometimes, when I read a manga with an interesting premise, I'll feel disappointed that the story never fully capitalized on its premise. I find it so frustrating when a story sacrifices the plot for the romance, so I've found visual novels are more likely to have the two woven together in a manner that's more appealing to me. It's nice to have a direct view inside the protagonist's head, too, especially when he's written as his own unique character rather than a thinly-veiled self-insert. I also like how long VNs are, as it gives me more time to become invested. VNs always will be my preferred medium for BL. If you saw me post and delete this twice like a week ago, please pretend you didn't.
No.8459
>>8456I notice that I find myself thinking back to VNs much more than any other BL medium
As you mentioned with the bad endings, the way VNs are free to explore different ideas and outcomes within the same premise allows for some really interesting writing, and I think it's also a great way for an author to spread out lore and arcs very neatly between different options/routes
Along with the point about how long they are, I have a feeling that the way VNs are finished stories at release can really strengthen them
Even if a VN is long enough to be a trilogy of novels, it doesn't matter! The main story MUST be complete before release, which firstly filters out writers that can't finish what they started, and secondly cuts out fan influence in plot progression
BLVNs remind me of indie movies, where the amount of resources and time and effort needed to make a passable product keeps out creators that aren't passionate, but are also niche enough where it allows for uncompromised visions since sales numbers aren't a focal point
