I hate how emotional I get when someone doesn't like the same series or characters as me. It's so childish to feel embarrassed and shut down when it happens.

I may genuinely stop watching seasonal anime. There's stuff airing right now that I like but despite having a pretty cozy job it still feels like I don't have enough time to do everything I want and I find myself way more drawn to my gaming backlog while weekly episodes are piling up unwatched.

I've read a translated fic from pixiv of a ship reincarnated, and they meet when the mastermind guy is 16 years old and the other guy is like 30 something. So the older guy "trains" the younger guy by playing with his nipples and all, it's pretty hot. But I realized I always clown on men who do that "100 year old in a loli body" bullshit, but I'm literally the same. I don't feel bad though.

I'm trying to consider why I like the Shantae series even though I'm not usually into a franchise that so obviously has a waifu coomerbait element. I think in the end I don't mind it here cause the games go about it in a cutesy lighthearted way and that doesn't make me uncomfortable like the bath scenes in Persona 4 do for instance.

I think if I posted this on /rps/ people wouldn't see it in time but free stream of Charisma de Stage ~Okaeri~ at 9PM JST tomorrow.
https://www.youtube.com/@charisma_de_stThey delete the stream really fast after the video ends so there's no replay but it's HD and the live chat goes nuts. Okaeri adapts more episodes including cycling to the sea, Ohse's Christmas tree, and Amahiko's penis pressure problem, but it also has part-adlibbed variety games with voice actor guests and more original songs. The bluray recording has Fumiya's break, kind of wish it were Amahiko or Iori's because I think they go down better for newcomers.
Ashflow looks much better in the Festival stage, but the vocals were rushed and out of rhythm. Honestly the song only works if you're already invested in Fumiya as a character and even then you need the lyric booklet to catch most of the lines. RAT BAD END is truly the lyrical genius of our time. No.10996

My OTP are twins but I can always tell just from how the artist draws the faces which one is supposed to be the seme. And when it's my fave, he almost always looks less attractive than his canon on-model version. Or maybe I'm just not into that Nagatoro-looking squinty smile type of expression kek

Also I think that in general the standard of media literacy has only gone up, people love to harp on growing puritanism and people harping on authors for their political/social standings, but I think people forget that our standard for media "analysis" 15 years ago was Nostalgia Critic and TGWTGs dude bros screaming at a camera about children's movies for having a dark moment or some shit. Fandom psychoanalysts and general analysis now is much more common and I enjoy seeing other peoples perspectives even if I don't agree.
I don't really get deep into that labeling either (yume, hime, ect) so I think that helps I like yaoi, you like yaoi too? We're good.

>>11073Oh shit what a coincidence. I started playing limbus again just recently, fully caught up with the story now.
Who is your favorite that you are worried about?
Hong Lu has always been my favorite and I was satisfied with his story for the most part (even found a homo ship I enjoy with him), but I also started to like Gregor more and he feels very neglected which makes me a bit sad.
No.11077
>>11076meursault has been my favorite, but i feel like i'm thinking too hard about his novel, projecting unrealistic expectations onto limbus, and ruining my own fun.
hong lu's canto was very enjoyable to me but seeing how almost all the women weren't really explored, and how daiyu's role in hong lu's life was downplayed made me feel ominous about how marie will play into meur's canto, because she was a huge part of his novel but then project moon doesn't really adapt romance. it doesn't help that meursault doesn't get a lot of lines or screentime per canto, which is alright because he just isn't talkative, but he hasn't done anything huge since the heathcliff moment in canto 6 and the rest of his characterization is very easy to miss (uptie stories, egos, the french letters in the back of the checkup intervallo).
on a more fujo note i'm glad kjh keeps throwing heathcliff and meursault crumbs into the story.
No.11078
>>11077I'm very interested in meursault's canto but yeah, it's better to not expect it to resemble anything from the original book. I've been thinking recently about which books that inspired limbus I have read and realized that it didn't even register to me that Gregor is from the Metamorphosis which I read multiple times, because his story barely had anything to do with the original.
>and how daiyu's role in hong lu's life was downplayed made me feel ominous about how marie will play into meur's cantoI went into canto 8 blind (didn't know the original story or spoilers) and thought "I bet Daiyu was his love interest in the original", checked wikipedia later and turns out I was correct. I think Daiyu might get more focus in the future, she is the one Hong Lu seems to care about the most along with his little sister. PM does seem averse to romance and I think it's fine, for me the way they write love stories is very hit and miss. Loved Angelica and Roland, strongly disliked Heath and Cathy (just my personal taste).

I think what's compelling about 3914 versus a lot of other questionable age gap ships is that Satomi controls the pace. I sort of wish karaoke/famires was more popular with EN but understand that it is a complete monkey paw scenario in 2025.
No.11089
>>11088>I would love to see what jp fujos in general think about the western fandom's puritan problem.They know and they think it's totally insane. Regular Japanese nerds read a huge thread written in English on tumblr about it that warned them about it, it was from 2023 iirc. Several of them have been harassed for shipping stuff or "you whitewashed this character so you're racist" stuff. When it comes to professionals I think the guy who made Trigun retweeted some of these tweets. And plenty of mangaka, game developers, anime studios, etc. have complained about being sometimes forced to adapt their works for an "international" audience but it's less from regular western fans and more from western companies so that's a bit different.

For anyone who's been on a bluesky, what's their thoughts on fujos? I don't often draw bl so I've got by far but still, it's becoming hard to find a presence online as more sites get shafted by censorship laws.
No.11104
>>11103A lot of the EN fujos over there are the annoying "unironically talking about 'his pussy'" types but otherwise there is no drama. The lion's share of the good yaoi is still on Twitter, however. I wish I could make more artists migrate because the tag system actually works and the mute/block features are much better.
However, bsky has recently updated its policies and artists are already side-eying the wording. I honestly think we're all going to have to suck it up and go to baraag at some point in the future. I hope by then there will be a fujo-only equivalent.

No.11107
>>11103in my fandom at least it's cozy, although i'd say a larger majority of asian fandom still prefers twitter. there are no locked accounts on bsky, either, so if you want to shittalk someone or a pairing it's less easy.
No.11108
>>11106Yeah that's why I have yet to even try to move over there and consider it a final resort. I don't like sharing space with art I can't even find aesthetically pleasing or feel like I could learn something from the artist and that is like 80% of the porn I see over there every time I peek in to see if it's gotten better.

No.11141
>>11139that's an interesting take nona. im picky with fics and porn too so i get where you're coming from. i can only enjoy fics that are well-written and in character, and i can only find the smut hot if in addition to that it also sprinkles at least a little of my kinks… so when it comes to my otp, i usually end up using other methods to get off
No.11142
>>11135I'm usually into the more popular m/m ship anyways so odds are I'm more likely to find in character content, so yes I am. Especially since multishipping has just turned into making a MC harem even for series that don't have the protag halo, and it pisses me off to see a canonically socially inept autist whose also said to be the least good looking who has been unable to talk normally to his love (for a girl) despite knowing her for years be made into some charismatic uke that for whatever reason no one can resist. That being said if an author has written decent enough content for my ship before, I'm more likely to give their other fics a try.
No.11143
>>11135No, because the internet gave me gross kinks I wish I could delete from my brain and they're the only thing that gives me the urge to fap. I don't want to ruin any character I actually know and like so I can only fap to random fandoms or ocs.
But depending on where my period cycle is sometimes ordinary smut does get me horny so maybe there's hope.
No.11144
>>11137Yes but I only get horny around ovulation anyway so it's rare. During that time I tend to think about my OTP but sort of… loosely, if that makes sense? I might read a fic or see art that is hot but I don't use it as masturbatory material then and there. I might reference it later and then make it more attuned to my tastes in my head.

>>11140>what do you look for in a ship for that to work?There’s a lot of ships with similarish dynamics to my otp out there, the only downside is that most of them don’t have the exact configurations of my otp. Like another ship will have one aspect but not the other aspects. But even with just a little similarity, I’m happy.

No.11153
>>11147agreed but there are a subset of fujos that seem to have a mindset along the lines of, "i would never desecrate or demean my favorite characters by thinking about them fucking because i only care about them in true, meaningful ways!"

No.11156
>>11155>Why do you think that this would ruin a character?NTA but I get it. If your otp is more vanilla like destiel, then it’d be hard to imagine dean or castiel doing something extreme like necro, torture, kidnapping, etc. Some ships just aren’t suited for certain kinks.
No.11157
>>11138>My otp doesn’t have much art and is pretty small in its fandomFunny that you say that because that's what happens with my OTP too but I actually am loyal to it so I have to make comissions of them. If I can't draw at least I'll pay someone for it.
>>11153This happens to me with SOME characters, but with others I want them gagged and raped and destroyed. It really just depends. Some characters I just can't think of sexually (I'm not opposed to seeing fanart that happens to be nsfw if I see it).
I often find myself in this dilemma
>>11156 that some ships I DO like, just kinda don't have ways to actually fuck without it coming off even if at least ooc. I know all fanworks are ooc to some extent, some people go "fuck it" and write it/draw anyway but I just can't do that. I can't just plop characters into a modern AU and call it a day.
Actually, this happens so much in the Orb fandom where 90% of works are AU. I mean, I get it and it's fun, but something about Badeni being a chaste priest in his canon is a little more appealing than average normal guy No.11158
>>11157>comissionsI honestly forget this is an option. I don’t use socmed for fandoms outside of ao3 so I’m not even sure how I would go about commissioning art for them.
No.11159
>>11157>This happens to me with SOME characters, but with others I want them gagged and raped and destroyed.are you more attached emotionally to the characters that you *don't* want to see fucked up? or is it just that there are no in-character scenarios that allow them to get that way?
i've been trying to understand why some people think like this if they aren't opposed to that content in general. i enjoy seeing all my favorites raped/tortured/etc., just on a purely selfish and horny level
No.11162
>>11155>Why do you think that this would ruin a character?Because I already know from past experience. I learned that shit a long time ago and it has 100% ruined fandoms/characters for me. I have plenty of kinks that I'm cool with and happy to make content for, it's just the specific ones I hate that hit the 'time to fap now' button in my subconscious. Who the fuck knows why.
No.11163
>>11135I'm impressed by your loyalty to your OTP but I will get turned on by any fantasy that turns me on kek. Characters I ship are a definite bonus though.
>>11136No hate to the OP at all but goon / gooner just annoys me because people label anything from suggestive material to just masturbating as gooning. An annoying label. Masturbating and having sexual desires and fantasies is normal despite what some on LC may think.
>>11153>>11157>>11159I love my favs so much that I do want to see them destroyed as the ultimate form of fan love. But they're all happy in my head, and the version where they get destroyed is an alternate scenario.
No.11164

No.11166
>>11162Do you want to apply these kinks to the characters you like and are holding back from doing so? I'm not meaning to sound judgemental and you ultimately know what makes you happy the best, but I do not see any harm being done by indulging in kinks privately.
>>11163The word sounded like silly fun to me at first but now I wouldn't use goon if only to avoid associating with the other people that use it. Now I need some other word to describe overactive masturbation.
No.11167
>>11163saging my post because it's irrelevant to the discussion.
i think gooner/gooning is mostly used ironically tbh, like it's considered a haha funny word. in the few instances where i saw it being used in an actual denigratory way, it was deserved, such as zombiefied men with porn addictions that warped their views of sex and women and made them potentially dangerous individuals. even then, the men calling them that way seemed to have more of a sense of camaraderie and misplaced endearment towards the guy than anything
No.11168
>>11164Yeah, no amount of emotional introspection is going to make me stop being disgusted by literal deviantart-tier cringe fetish shit. All I can be glad for is that whatever shitty diceroll decides your mental issues at birth didn't decide to make me a scatfag.
>>11166>Do you want to apply these kinks to the characters you like and are holding back from doing so?If I happen to run into such content by accident of a character I like, it's a conflict between lizard brain that wants to fap in the moment and rational brain that is grossed out. Just awkward and uncomfortable overall. But no, I don't want to see it and I don't want to write it. I wouldn't write it as origfic either.

Does normie want to go for walkies? Yes he does, yessh he doooess…>>11143>>11168I get what you mean, nona. I'm not in the same situation exactly, I do let my mind indulge a little, but once a month my brain loses its standards for my embarrassing fetishes and will imagine shit I am deeply ashamed of. The worst part is I daydream long plot situations about characters I like, and my fetishes will worm their way in quite easily and ok, I can let some of it slide. Then bam, it goes TOO fucking silly and I think I need to backtrack this story and pretend that never happened or I can never tell this story to another soul in my entire life. The real problem is that part of me is proud of the things my brain invents and wants to share them, but when you're super zonked with exhaustion or cramps, my personal judgement dies.
>>11172True story, I was in a discord server with a guy who was a self proclaimed gooner. He treated it like a life style choice and told stories about using multiple PC screens to have porn videos playing at all hours, day and night, to overstimulate himself while he wrote self insert fiction about himself fucking a prostitute Miku clone from the planet Zod. Even the other men in the server thought he was a mad degenerate but kept voting not to kick him because his deranged ramblings were entertaining. He was desensitized to a point that he didn't seem to know what was normal or not to talk about with strangers in a sfw channel, and whenever he didn't talk about porn or fapping he would go into rants about real women destroying society so spiritual connection to anime through dick was the only option.
Until that I didn't realize people took the word's meaning seriously. I thought it was just an accusation aimed at anime fanboys with too many titty retweets. I wonder what he does now the word has spread.
Also while typing this I realized that in many cases it could have just been called Solo Competitive Edging.

I'm not someone who demands realism in gay anime porn, but certain touches of realism balanced with fantasy make the brst BL imo. I get especially annoyed when the seme sticks his dick into an unlubricated asshole. Even worse if it's during noncon or something. Can he at least spit on his dick and show the uke magically getting lubricated with yaoi juice? Idk why this bothers me so much but I always feel obligated to research everything for my own writing.

Over the past few months, I've noticed that many Eastern European artists are increasingly focusing on politics. They've stopped posting their art and are now posting about politics full-time.

No.11313
>>11312That makes no sense. How can something created by women for other women be called male gaze? It can try to imitate it, but it's female gaze by default. Trying to define it by how much body it shows or whatever would be relying on things that are entirely subjective
No.11314
>>11313it's just the official definition.
male gaze is not about who the product is for or who it was made by, it's an approach to how a character is represented. when you represent a character by sexualizing his or her body, you're operating from what has been officially defined in media studies as male gaze.
it is not implying that as a woman you can't enjoy a man or a woman being depicted in an objectified way though, it's just what the women that were studying media back in 1970 noticed as a strong trend when it came to male directors whenever a woman was on screen.
female gaze is associated with when a character, male or female, becomes attractive to the audience, male or female, by virtue of what they are doing and what that reveals about their personality and worldviews.
so semi-naked closeups of male/female characters on screen = male gaze
a guy or a girl who beats up the bad guys and then says somethijg like "no one messed with my friends" = female gaze
these are academic definitions that arent really up for debate in what they mean. what one can and should argue about is how they seemingly imply that both genders arent able to enjoy both types of fanservice. i wouldnt hold it against the women who first explored these terms though since it was a different time and they were among the first to openly criticize how overwhelmingly male-oriented pieces of media were. it was the first step to popularize sexy guys on screen too and the reverse for women (actual characters with depth instead of pin-ups)
No.11316
>>11314Ok, I understand what you're saying now. I didn't know there were studies done on this. I agree, both genders can create and enjoy content for both of these types, so it feels weird to see the words "male" and "female" used to define them. There should be a word used for media made by women for women, it's a huge part of what makes yaoi so unappealing.

Then the Lego Batman Movie literally made it the main focus of the film, and it's been going strong ever since.

>>11365The scary part is that it didn't look cheap from the video clips. I think it's that the romantasy girls weren't raised in the nerd fandom crowd where we always got warnings about not behaving in a way that feeds into bad stereotypes. None of us wanted to be gross nerd creeps like in cartoons so we tried acting cautious, but they think they're normal and whatever they do is just having fun. It sounds like some of them treat convention parties like a nightclub, but unlike a nightclub you can't just go to the next one down the road if they kick you out. You have to take responsibility for your actions.
>>11362I think the 00s and early 10s were the first time many weebs actually met irl for fandom stuff, so it was a crazy learning curve for a ton of dumb hormonal teenagers. These women involved in the current drama are much older so they have no excuses.

>>11368> I think it's that the romantasy girls weren't raised in the nerd fandom crowd where we always got warnings about not behaving in a way that feeds into bad stereotypes.Romance as a genre has always been a ghetto and unlike SF/fantasy or furries, it hasn’t had decades of an established con culture so I can give organizers some benefit of the doubt. If they were more experienced, they would’ve have the foresight to enact guard rails to prevent inappropriate behavior. There was also an instance where someone whipped out a strap-on and someone else started fellating it in public and no one had the sense to stop them. Furries have had decades to perfect their con culture and you end up with spectacles like Rainfurrest, whereas I’m assuming the average romantasy fan is more normie and so probably better socially integrated. So in short, I think the organizers are mostly to blame.

For some reason, the trap fantasy is more of a male-oriented thing I have no idea why. It's more so for bisluts/bicurious guys who aren't willing to go full homo "I love men" but want something that still looks like a woman without dealing with an actual woman.
In practice, it can make for some cute BL but it's usually never done for that purpose.

I'm trying to save money because the economy keeps getting worse and I developed bad habits, and when it comes to entertainment it became very easy. I check new releases for manga I like and there's almost nothing interesting or sequels are released so slowly I have no idea when they will be released in Japan, let alone where I live. I don't spend a cent on subscriptions except for the library.

So I have a couple of ships I like from novels/book series, but I don't look up fan art of them because they are canonically average to ugly looking middle aged men and obviously the fanart will reflect this. But in my head when reading I just imagined them as handsome anime men kek, so I can't look at the art since it will shatter my delusions. I feel kind of guilty about this since I dislike it when anime fanart goes off model, but I just really don't want to see realistic ugly moids.

>>11609>i feel like having the uke seme roles reversed became a lot more popular in recent yearsThis is me, sorry not sorry, but I love feminine/pathetic/small etc semes as well as dominant ukes.

No buff ukes for me though, both the seme and the uke should be twinks with negative muscle on them.
No.11619
>>11611>precocious shota egging on an older guilty uke?Nope. Don't like it. I find it an affront to god actually, but different strokes for different folks.
Jokes aside, I feel like a lot of people try to balance out the taboo nature of shotacon by giving the shota some control over the relationship (having him be the seme). Like saying 'see, he's not a victim here, he's the one doing the rape' or whatever. But I personally find it more interesting to play around with the taboo and fucked up scenario of a shota getting groomed. The further the boundaries are pushed, and the more squimish the audience feels about it the better. But this is how I feel about all yaoi tbh kek.
No.11620
>>11619Dang, you nailed me lol. Yeah I think the main reason I prefer manipulative shota/guilty uke is that I want it to be balanced a little. If it's just unambiguous rape I don't find it interesting or appealing. It's still fucked up regardless though, especially if the shota threatens to turn over the guy to his parents if he doesn't fuck him or otherwise threatens and blackmails him. Like the fact that it's taboo is the appeal.

The more fantasy elements you add, the easier (or situations like
>>11628 mentioned with immortal/nonhuman shotas)
But sometimes it can be a very fine line, like how nonnas elsewhere on here have discussed before, with ships like SebaCiel. It's easier for me to accept a demon not having human morals but 'Sebastian is just a mundane human pedo in modern world' isn't interesting.

I've lately been thinking about how I grew up being told that pregnancy was the worst thing that could happen to me and now I spend time imagining it happening to men for my own sexual gratification.

When you sell me on a ship I want you to tell me what kind of dynamic they have and how they react to each other, just spamming "THEM" and "THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SOOOOO MUCH" doesn't do shit. I can't get horny off of people shouting "WIFE" and "WOMEN", those are
single fucking words. What happened to making sentences and constructing your own meal.
This is coming from someone who's been ostracized in 4chan adjacent groups for "being a prude."

>>11619Taboo has never done anything for me. My fetish is some sense of danger or being taken by surprise, so when a younger guy turns the tables on his senior, that works for me. A non-human shota character being treated as a threat is good because it suggests there's some hidden danger that the older party has to be wary of, but can't necessarily predict. There's a level of persistent tension.

People just seem to not think of shipping as something to actually take seriously in any shape or form or just have no passion. Everything boils down to RTing fanart or saying "wow I love them so much" and that's it. Whenever you push someone to speak they just go "w-well what if I don't know what to say". If you don't know how to say why you like something, then you don't actually fucking like it. It's incredibly easy to explain why you like something, whether the other person agrees with you or sees your point is entirely different and people are afraid of being scrutinized for being "cringe" or "wrong" but if you never say anything how the fuck am I supposed to know?

Reading the manga afterwards was a big disappointment, as a shonen it's meh, very rushed last third and didn't feel gay at all tbh.
I recently gave it a quick reread to see if my younger self missed some subtle homo (and because I remembered how beautiful Shirogane was and wanted to see more of him) and it was still painfully meh…

Then I was headficcing timeskip marriage and the whole nine yards. (But I think I could only ship it because neither of them showed any canon romantic interest in each other while at the same time the dynamic was genuinely shippy.

Why make all those eggs? Because he can't stop getting fucked by other creatures who see him as prime material and his body keeps trying and failing to make children out of those encounters. Meanwhile the eggs are highly sought after by mages and other monsterboys for their high magical nutritional value, so it's in someone's interests to capture him and keep bringing him to orgasm.

>>11863I've become some kind of a seiyuufag recently because of concerts that are half-in-character but clearly just the actors holding mics. I couldn't imagine having any lasting enthusiasm for English VAs - ignoring that I'm not American and find American dubs really hard to take seriously - the actors just don't do the same job as these Japanese ones do. They provide voice recordings and turn up to convention booths but that's it, the connection ends there. There's no stage persona act to project the 2D character on, they're just some real dudes. I don't know shit about what the Japanese guys are like at home or anything, I just know the silly shit they wrote during a comedy gameshow bit while pulling a smug face and that's enough for me to have a favorable impression.
>>11873Having taken the donghua pill early on Hoyo VA debates are so strange to me, because English speakers will fight over playing the game in either English or Japanese. Nobody ever mentions the Chinese dub, and every time I've looked at trailers I've found the casting in the Chinese version felt more like the character archetypes than the Japanese did. Japanese casting for Chinese series always feel off to me.

Stupid question, but do active forums still exist?

They just don't want to see their shit sold for the equivalent of hundreds of dollars on Yahoo Auction or Ebay. That's why during events they limit the number of doujinshi to one or two per person regardless of how many doujinshi they will have to take home with them, they know they can sell their stuff on toranoana later or to the next events anyway. Nowadays a lot of them repost their older doujinshi for free on pixiv and I don't know if it's to prevent scalpers from selling them online for way more than they should or if it's just because they don't want to print them again when they already have to print a lot of more recent stuff.
No.11963
>>11961>>11959>>11958It's genuinely not for the sake of scalpers, it's because of the boogeyman copyright law. I've had a lot of djs that say "burn it once you finished reading" wtf?
It's because they fear that if the work gets "put out there", they'll get hit by the copyright notice by the original creators.
This ever-constant fear of the boogeyman is present in every fanartist, hence why they censor character names when talking about ships, NEVER post ship art under official tags (this is a capital sin), and be as secret as possible when it comes to doujin distribution.
The boogeyman problem only really applies to Nintendo properties (after all, they did sue someone over pikachu porn) but for every other thing? Not really.
The thing with doujin making and doujin production (and all fanworks in general) is that companies understand that they need to give fans a leeway of delusion hence why they don't impose stricter laws over fanwork creation but a fanwork shouldn't ever be more profitable than the original property or a fanwork "distort" the original property (not any more than it already happens anyway), so they allow people to make things with the knowledge that they (understand) that it's not inherently allowed.
No.11966
>>11963>hence why they censor character names when talking about shipsNo, this one is mostly because they don't want to be harassed by other fans who don't like the ships they talk about. They also use code names like the ship numbers used for the Reborn characters back then. It's the same thing as when tumblr was the new big fandom website and everyone was begging others to use missing e and then xkit to block tags and to not tag how much they hate a character or pairing to not ruin fans' search results. It's true artists are worried about copyrights and lawsuits but they display that they're merely fans in other ways. There's how dirt cheap doujinshi can be compared to the amount of effort and means it takes to draw, print them and include free goodies like tote bags, stickers, keychains, fans, etc. with them on top of these disclaimers that you can do whatever you want with their doujinshi except reprint/post them online and sell them online.

Also not sure if this is a common pattern or my mind making it up, but I noticed original BL/manhwa readers are more likely to lust over and only care about the seme and self-insert into the uke, whereas primary ship fujos mainly "lust over" and care about the uke while treating the top as a personality-less dildo. But for the latter, I'm not even sure if it's so much lusting over the uke but more like paradoxically self-inserting into the uke with the ship being some wish fulfillment thing (with the seme just attending to all your needs and fulfilling all sexual fantasies while still not giving a shit about said character).

I don't feel like this is on topic anymore in the friend finder thread but I don't think we have a thread for cons and events so I might as well as here. For French anons, why is the Ycon in Paris? The first times happened in Lyon, then the organizers moved the event to Paris. This year in May they planned a special Ycon in Lyon again for the first time in 10 years at the exact same time as the local con in Lyon, and now they announced the next special edition will take place in… Paris again. Is there a specific reason why they keep doing this or did they just come to the (wrong?) conclusion after a lot of people chose the other con in Lyon and not theirs in May? I assume it's a business thing and they just expect more people to be willing to go to Paris but last year we all know what happened with trains in the Marseille, Lyon and Paris line so I also wonder if they just keep making bad decisions over and over again. Also, I saw people online arguing over whether minors should be allowed in the venue and to me it's insane older teenagers are allowed even with adult supervision. I didn't even know that was the case.

i'm browsing twitter and after seeing a shitton of yumes, i'm wondering how yumes engage with fandom as a whole, ESPECIALLY those who don't share their husbandos and block others who 1) also yume him or 2) ship him with canon characters.
for example, fujos who share the same ship have a strong sense of community. we can discuss the ship and both characters themselves, how they interact, and why it makes sense to us. we're invested.
but for yumes, isn't this discussion lopsided? discussion can only be about the GUY in the yumeship unless other yumes are willing to give a shit about someone's personal OC lore. and do they care? why would they? and in the case where a yume is "non-sharing," then they can't even be friends with other yumes who like the same guy… so they're in a community of other yumeshippers for different characters, just talking about themselves and to themselves, but no one really cares or is interacting on a deep level? seriously curious how these communities interact. they seem very siloed to me, as an outsider.

I guess it just becomes a scenario where you talk with your pre existing friends about how much you love your husbando in a "back off bitch he's mine" kind of way. I don't know, I have a husbando but he's from an otome game and isn't a terribly popular choice at that so I've only run into one other person who liked him and we had a pleasant conversation about why we like him so much (maybe otome fans are just less crazy than the typical gendie selfshipper type?)

>>12084From what I've personally observed, most yumes either have a personal clique of 3-4 friends who just egg them on "wow I love your ship of charaxyou" and that's as far as their interaction goes. Some others REALLY want you to give a shit about their OC, and I think people who are open to OCs in general are the ones that care about what yumes have to say.
Yumeing is an inherently selfish thing, you basically ignore everything about the source material just to think about yourself being with your fav and nothing else. For some people, that's brave because "the source material sucks anyway" but if you think that way did you even like your supposed husbando at all? It's just shallow.

>>12078Instagram used to be good for posting fashion photos into the void before it changed the way tags work so no one will see your images if you don't have a high follower count. I end up putting the most effort into dressing up when with friends.
No.12089
>>12086>I can't ever find a place where they actually discuss anything? The only yume community that I've ever seen has been on reddit of all places, and it was basically just people making posts about their ships/self-inserts. There was very little discussion.
>>12087>For some people, that's brave because "the source material sucks anyway" but if you think that way did you even like your supposed husbando at all? It's just shallow.I can understand not liking every plot decision made in a story, or thinking that a great character is trapped in a terrible piece of media, etc, but I will never understand the complete disregard for canon that some yumes (and other fans, tbh) have.
No.12090
>>12084Observing online I think the yumes in Japan tend to use online communites just to organize meeting up and going to events IRL
I figured they just want to enjoy being fans together without being judged for being in love but maybe I'm reaching with that theory
Otherwise agree with western communities and the weird push for OCs over talking about actual canon.

>>12085I was thinking of this guy as I read the previous post lol. IMO the key to yume/OC acceptance is to be an objectively good ARTIST (writers will never reach this level of success no matter how good they are). Also because of the WoL's shared story path XIV lends itself to OC shipping in a way other fandoms typically don't–WoL/NPC shipping isn't on the same level of "girl what the fuck are you doing" as, like, OC/Bakugo.
No.12092
>>12084My friend is a non-sharing yume engaged in yume Discord servers and from what I've seen, yumes just interact with each other like they would "obsessing" over a ship like fujos do. They read about or ask each other about their yumeship's lore, make fanart for each other, etc. I was in a server for a hot minute just to see what it looked like and imo interactions are heavily based on reciprocity. It's more or less unsaid that if someone's commenting on your yumeship, you're expected to talk about theirs too which makes the whole thing inauthentic compared to actual shipping circles. And yeah no one's really talking on a deep level because they're all non-sharing and they can only bear talking to people with husbandos from other media they have no interest in kek.

>>12092When I was in a husbandofag space that also allowed some fujoshit for a while it was mostly just people posting character thirst and 'imagine Husbando doing this to (You) or (You) doing this to husbando' prompts, OCs were only mentioned rarely. But I guess that must be only the type of people who are cool with 'sharing'. I enjoy character thirst too, it's only when it gets into involving (You) that I can't follow along and start secondhand cringing or trying to imagine my ship. I don't so much mind non-romantic imagines, though.

>>12078I'm in the same boat, nonna. I love dolly kei, but I wear scrubs for work and don't really leave the house. I'm trying a low and slow scheme thought, where I replace one of my clothing items with a cuter version every time I wear it out (ie, free tshirt gets swapped for a blouse). Hopefully this will force me to dress the way I actually want to dress, rather than the way that I'm used to dressing.

>>12091You make a good point and that makes me wonder if this is also a thing in other MMO fanbases or whether XIV is an abnormal case. I don't play other MMOs so I have no idea what goes on in those fanbases. Would be funny if there's an equivalent artist in the World of warcraft community.
No.12097
>>12096I've seen people hardcore yume for Teldryn Sero from Skyrim and Margit/Morgott and Messmer from Elden Ring, all with relatively good engagement on their art (tumblr, so like 30-50 notes). But, I've also seen similar but slightly less levels of engagement with male OCs (or 'male' ftm OCs, which is just yumeing with a coat of paint) for both characters.
I've seen doujinshi about Skyrim OCs that seem to sell fairly well, but these aren't usually that shippy.

Do any nonnas here have an ita bag? I collect pins and would love to display them, and my otp kek, but I am 30+ and taking that to work would be insane.

It's kinda throwing me for a loop how I've heard two younger-seeming review/commentary youtubers just flat out saying the word retarded. I know two isn't a lot but there's an unrelated video I watched where as a joke the youtuber briefly flashed an article onscreen about the word retarded making a comeback and now I'm starting to wonder if that's actually legit. I dunno, I just find that fascinating.

I ended up buying the goth clothes I was eyeing and they arrived today. In the end I'm glad I did it cause I felt very happy trying them on. The corset dress was something I should've thought harder about, though, because I quickly realised I am incapable of actually adjusting the corset without help.

I totally understand why the discourse around 70/80 dollar games is a thing but it recently occurred to me that I don't mind that much on a personal level because I'm used to dropping hundreds of bucks on art commissions so in comparison a videogame isn't that much.

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to ask, but there's this private X account that posts nsfw bakudeku fanart and I've tried requesting a few times. Is there any way to circumvent this and get access? They make really great art on their main account so I don't understand why they're being so private with it.
