Getting into the strokes, after my older sister gave me her CDs

I didn't think she would be until she started talking about shipping two of her male classmates together kek.

>writing a ballad for the first time
>add lines about a man (Ravion) embracing another man (Indris) "like a sheath cradling a sword"
>"Day after day, night after night, their shadows intertwined on the training grounds"
It doesn't help that Ravion regularly "pranks" Indris by getting him drunk despite knowing Indris will end up hugging him.

Kimika totally gave fujo vibes.

I read Shota Oni because of the anime announcement and it was really good. I now feel empty without something to replace it

I just saw an Aoba yume in the wild. Yume whoever you want I guess but are you sure you want to yume the patron saint of taking any kind of dick in his ass as much as possible, really? Is this like "I can make him straight" fix-it?

this is from jkk stageplay, huge win for fujos butI feel bad for the top geto truthers, cause like how do you recover from this?

Honestly, I don't mind the dye system grind since it's something to work towards, which the game was starting to lack before 1.5
But we can't even get a basic black dye? We can't dye hair to be Nikki's default color?
There's some good things this update (Serenity Island is fun) but they are just so overshadowed by the bizarre decision-making and bugginess
Hopefully they just throw out the retconned story and go back to how it was, but it's irksome how they put in all the time and resources for an entirely new intro that was completely unnecessary

It feels like something that could've been worked into the plot at a later date but the way it is now, both plot-wise and the sea of stars area feeling undercooked, it comes off as something that was rushed out early because some exec wanted it for the steam release.

it's already pride month let me roll for this homosexual NOW

Not really fujo adjacent but last night I watched this trash horror movie called Funhouse Massacre and thought it was kind of funny that one of the killers that was described as a handsome dentist that mostly killed women was exclusively shown torturing and killing men.

The new Final Destination movie was alright, it wasn't as good as the first two films but miles ahead of the fourth one. In terms of gore and violence, it was kind of all over the place with some nice combinations of practical and cgi effects to goofy full on cgi blood splatters. The build up with the disaster at the not space needle restaurant was good but between Tony Todd's speach and the mri death sequence, the hospital was the high point. The family was likable enough and I loved the dynamic and personalities between the two brother characters with the older one actively trying to help the younger one avoid death. Death derailing a train and destroying an entire fucking neighborhood just to kill the last two family members was stupid and overkill but I guess they wanted to end the movie with a bang. Honestly at the very least it's worth streaming.

Absolutely love that film, the ending still hurt my heart in a weird way. Actually stopped my movie session for that night. I've been meaning to watch the sequel, heard it was good.

Stay strong little kitty, you'll find the BB fans.

That doesn't mean they're not there. Fujochan is unique in that mtfs have 0 interest in yaoi and ftms hate "chan" adjacent spaces.

Genuinely such a great filter.

I found it today. Seems comfy.

Did anyone else find this one super interesting? I absolutely loved it. My favorite genre of documentary is the kind that focuses on some super niche topic like this. Any recommendations for documentaries that also focus on random subjects?

>>9836
Yes Grizzly Man is great! I'd also recommend the rest of Werner Herzog's documentaries all of them are just random topics he personally finds interesting.

Some really random ones I like…

Atomic Cafe (1982) which is a collection of historic footage and propaganda pieces all about atom bombs. It's pretty funny in a dark sense and uses a lot of juxtaposition.

The People vs. George Lucas (2010) a movie about fringe Star Wars fans and their love-hate relationship with the creator. What's interesting is it was made before the sequel trilogy so the "fringe" and "crazy" fans that are depicted in the film are now the kind of people you would find on youtube.

Screaming in High Heels: The Rise & Fall of the Scream Queen Era (2011) movie about women in B movies. If you like Troma and other low brow trash (like me) you'll get more out of it, but even without that there's also discussion of the B movie business as a whole that's interesting.

Tapped (2009) A movie about bottled water, the business, the environmental impact, and companies attempts to market something you can get for free.

Room 237 (2012) Insane documentary which markets itself as being about interpretations of the film The Shining, but is actually a movie about conspiracy theories and how the human brain has the tendency to see patterns where there are none. If you haven't seen the Kubrick film this one will make no sense though.

You went above and beyond! Thank you! It's so hard to find good documentaries, and I'll definitely check out all of the ones you listed. I hate being let down by an interesting premise. There was one documentary I tried to watch a long time ago about how a woman lied about surviving 9/11, and worked her way up to becoming president of the World Trade Center Survivors' Network before getting caught. Somehow, they managed to turn this very interesting subject into something way more boring. It wasn't bad, but it had the potential to be so much better.
>I'd also recommend the rest of Werner Herzog's documentaries
I love all of Werner Herzog's documentaries that I've watched. I love his perspective, and he has such a unique style. That one clip of him talking about the chicken cracks me up.
>Screaming in High Heels: The Rise & Fall of the Scream Queen Era (2011)
This one sounds really cool, as I've also watched a lot of B-movies and garbage of that nature. I actually know nothing about the industry, so I'm excited to learn.
>Tapped (2009)
I just watched this one because of your recommendation, and it's so fascinating! It's personally interesting to me for reasons I can't really detail, but this is a great recommendation. I wish more people were aware of this.
>Room 237 (2012) Insane documentary which markets itself as being about interpretations of the film The Shining, but is actually a movie about conspiracy theories and how the human brain has the tendency to see patterns where there are none.

This sounds like my favorite type of thing. I've never watched The Shining despite loving horror movies because I hate Stephen King. Maybe I'll have to finally watch The Shining just so I can enjoy this documentary! Kubrick did direct one of my all-time favorite movies, and I like a lot of his work, so it won't be too much of a chore.

Oh trust me I agree 100% with you. This manga's success overwhelmingly with women is a huge "told you so" moment for me.

>>9418
I hate office love as a genre to begin with so it's not for me personally, but I can see why women would like it more than men because for one thing the women look like adults and have short hair. Two things that otaku men find absolutely reprehensible.

I absolutely adore calm and relaxing shows with lots of female characters or stylish female characters from vidja.

Anon you make really good points. There are many, many video essays about how every nu-Disney protagonists have the same quirky personality or how corporate meddling scrubs out any slightly ambitious plot point or character (see Wish fandom based on unused cute Starboy concept).

I really love princely characters with light, usually platinum blonde, hair like Eichi or Tadase. It's such a particular trope but they always look so clean and pure and otherworldly especially with the white horse imagery.
