Part of it was depression, but even after dealing with the depression, I still haven't been able to really get back into watching anime like I used to.

The weirdest things about yume to me isn't the self-shipping but that everytime I look into one of their husbando/OC fics it's like a whole own setting with no similarities to anything resembling canon save for one character who got transplanted into that story to play the role of the lover and share the name of the canon character.
I could understand the appeal if they shipped a female canon character with their fav or at least an OC that fits into the setting but no. Maybe it's just coincidence that the few yume stories in my fandoms are like this? Like one of the series is historical and the yume stories are full-fantasy and the husbando somehow non-human(??), another series IS a fantasy but THERE the yume stories are mainly pseudo-historic court drama wtf
I wonder if such people are just failed writers that try to get an audience by renaming their male OC with the name of some semi-popular manga character and use that as excuse to add the title of the series as tag to attract a wider audience.

the main driving factor I get from ships in unnatural worlds is how they got together in their current setting and how they persevered through it if its a drama/tragedy.

Not all were caused by ao3 resent, like when that ddos attack happened, people started moving their fics over just in case.

I and a few others in my current fandom are in our 30s now and some 20yo we also talk to found that funny (not in a mean way) how varied the age can be in fandoms and this gave me a flashback to the time when I was a teen and realising that some of the fic writers I adored were in their mid thirties.
I still remember how one of them casually talked about her cat on her blog and how she made tea to sit down and type those stories. Another one had a husband and a part-time job. They must be in their early 50s now it's crazy to think about that but I also want to know what they are doing. Are some of them still into fandoms? Did they all move on?
It's crazy to think that somewhere out there are some 50+ year old women that write fanfics I read when I was 15 and maybe still remember how they wrote all that Guts/Griffith sex and the hate fuck between Megatron and Starscream.

AO3 is updating their tos. Nothing major, just some clarification on wording. Oh and the "Underage" tag will be renamed to "Underage Sex" because it was becoming more and more obvious that people didn't realize "Underage" was for underage characters engaging in sex and not for drinking, dating, etc. It's kinda funny to see comments on the news that are against the change because they were using the tag wrongly.

If someone wants to exclude it from a search they should be able to grab all of those kinds of stories not just ones with penetration.

I really had a yaoi dream for some reason today, and it's about the most 2 random characters ever. Can't bother to mention the show or characters though, they're just some side characters who work in a gang. One of them gets his leg broken and the other decides to take care of him until his leg heals, and he kisses it for some reason, which makes the other fall in love with him, and with time the whole caretaking thing develops into a romantic and sexual relationship and it's genuine, they fuck in the hospital on the hospital bed and the caretaker isn't allowed to stay there anymore for being inappropriate in the hospital, so the protagonist of the show appears out of thin air and is assigned to watch over the one with the broken leg, who decides to ask him for love advice because ofcourse. Dream ends here though.

Part of why I mostly like shipping opposed to canon pairings is that the majority of writers suck ASS at writing romance. And since they're usually writing het romance het is more likely to be shit on principle, all preferences aside.
I watched or read many series where two guys were so close that even 4chan called them gay. They touch or lean against each other, one might hold someone else's face, they do shit together that they enjoy together, they understand each other without speaking and they aren't awkward around each other.
Meanwhile the "romances" in the same series consist of girls blushing like idiots in every panel for.. standing near the dude they're in love with. And if there is any touching at all it's the girl tempting the dude/boy and it's him who makes are retarded face, screams and bleeds from the nose. Wow. What an interesting dynamic bro. I swear you could change the gender and make both men or boys and I still wouldn't give a shit because that sort of romance is superficial and sucks IMO.

Why are fujos so unlikely to upload art to danbooru? Is it out of respect for the artist to avoid reposts even if they link to the source, is it laziness or because fujos view it at useless?
Here is the joke, I don't do it either. I simply view it as redundant in this day and age. If I care about a series, I will search twitter and pixiv etc. for it, follow hundreds of artists and browse the place daily to not miss anything. I only use danbooru when I need some quick access to a fanart of a series I didn't care enough about to google art for. Like when I talk in a thread and think I should accompany my post with an artwork.
My only gripe with the lack of fujo art on the boorus is that casuals and men don't care enough to browse and follow properly so they go to the boorus instead, see the shit there and post that and it's mostly generic coomer or waifu art. Worse, some will believe and say that most of the art for a series got was said waifu stuff because it's the most common thing they see on *booru, even when het art makes up less than 3% of the total of fanart a series get.

Can you imagine that some anon told me (most likely with a straight face) that most of the fanart for Transformers was het shipping for one of the three or so relevant female characters (vs 99% males) when the series gets like 100 BL artworks per day? The character in question doesn't even have much art to begin with, but they only look at danbooru, see the 200 artworks there and consider that the fanbase when the series got like 100k artworks in the last 10 years alone. This isn't even an exaggeration. I bet they also believe that most fans of JJBA and Golden Kamuy were het shippers and waifu fans thanks to booru.

I can't recommend enough actually archiving the art you enjoy. I've been doing it for a while and it's so nice to have a copy of it even if the bad_piviv_id is sad to see.

My biggest folders encompass up to 30000 pics for a single series (and 73 subfolders).
Even a very new anime I got into and isn't mainstream already has a 2000 pic folder for my fav ship alone. I don't think I could scroll past art that I like without saving it.

Now it's far less nice and people delete or private frequently, but I still catch myself not having saved something because I shared the link with someone in the moment.
Also these days you gotta make a "no repost" folder in your series folder so you don't accidentally post one from an artist who threatens to burn everything. I got one small fandom where there were only a handful of artists left and I've been blacklisted by all of them for posting their works on 4chan threads, so now even if I still save their stuff because it's rare it's all "no repost".

>>7093>Also these days you gotta make a "no repost" folder in your series folder so you don't accidentally post one from an artist who threatens to burn everythingOh yeah I hate that paranoia. I am an artist myself, sure, it's nicer when someone links the source, but it also has something cool about it if you encounter some random Chinese fan or discorder who knows your art from some obscure discord or forum that posted it without source and is happy to have found you. I can't stand pinterest repost I admit that, but I deem it useless to get mad about it, there is nothing you can do and SADLY, sometimes, pinterest happens to be the last place that still hosts a certain artwork if the artist has nuked their accounts.
Anyway tbh I still repost their stuff on 4chan and into discords (though with link) and I never noticed an issue. Maybe they don't visit 4chan or they care less because it's anonymous. I think they mostly get mad if people repost it on socmedia since that implies that the reposter was the artist? I don't use other socmedia anyway.
Personally I always save because I simply enjoy art of my favs a lot. It's like merch to me. Especially since art also tells a story or conveys some idea about the characters. I love to own it all and to post it on image boards to shill my favs lol.

I am fine with it and just roll with it. I prefer the character I am attracted to the most as the one bottoming anyway, but it's still funny.

>>7136They're worried someone will repost it to pretend they're them in that case, not just that someone will repost it somewhere else for the sake of it. I saw someone saying they're worried that deleting their twitter art will make it easier for someone else to accuse her of plagiarizing someone else when she posted her art first, and some people on bluesky are trying to take other artists' twitter handle to pretend to be them. I haven't seen that myself because I only looked for links the actual artists posted on their twitter for everyone to find them but I've seen some of them urging other artists to at least make an account on bluesky to hoard their @ and avoid people pretending they're them.
No.7140
There's a JP artist I follow who's doing a free avatar giveaway but even with no money involved she won't do fanart or mmo characters. This supports what I thought in another thread that some JP artists are extremely skittish about copyrighted characters despite doujin culture being a thing.
>>7130Yeah I'm also in a situation where some artists have moved to bsky while others are still on twitter so I'm active on both platforms now. Best case scenario with the watermarks are the variants where they will post the clean version on another platform. By the way, the Grok AI opt-out still seems to be available so it feels like in the end this whole migration and artists throwing away their established follower base was for nothing.

No.7152
>>7141I never liked this argument because the only things notably "male" about men in lateral media is the general shape of their bodies and if they have a romantic interest it's probably a woman. Most writers are writing a character in a story and not something that is supposed to be perfectly grounded in reality. Superman doesn't really act like a man and nobody is constantly trying to sell the idea that every Superman writer was carving out a delusional space for themselves because they felt threatened by "real" men.

>>7138Depends on how it's done. I am too much of an art fetishist to ignore it if it's plastered over characters' faces.
>>7139This happened to me a few times. But I can prove I am the original artist because I keep the psd/clip studio files with all the layers and everything. Some year ago someone messaged me on tumblr and talked Chinese with me lol. Turned out I am not the person they think I was and apparently someone in China reposted my art pretending to be me. I showed their friend the files and shit was solved. I doubt the other one deleted their reposts but I can at least prove who the real artist is in case that someone asks me. So always keep your files!
The most common reposters are pinterest shitters though. Apparently their fanbase is also really stupid. I know some accounts that wildly repost from various artists with completely different art styles and fandoms and yet their pinterest fans always tell them what an awesome artist they are. They see some cutesy pastel artwork for K-ON and sketchy, gory yaoi fanarts for Transformers or something and don't doubt for a second that it's the same artist (the reposters don't even claim it's them, they just repost without commenting).

>>7141> it’s about women making males non threateningNo because I like the threatening ones the most and no I am not afraid of men, neither real ones nor 2D cartoon characters.

This sentence is rather describing trap fags not fujos. And trap fags are usually male lmao
That aside it's seems to be a tranny issue first and foremost. The most paranoid man haters I witnessed are trannies. That aside most fans that uwu-fy their pairings are ALSO trannies. Granted, most trannies are women who ship m/m, but they don't even identify as fujos so it's not a fujo thing and their pairings are closer to doll plays coming from a toddler or hetero sex than actual yaoi (remember all the PIV and trans-headcanons).

>>7144> Seems cruel to say but I simply don't care about career artists Based me neither. Half of all western fans I see and know only draw fanart to eventually gain enough followers to make money of this but I don't like them. Tbh they are the main reason for why western fandoms turned to ass. Once you make it about money every other artist becomes a rival.
I am in a fandom where the Asian part is super cool and the western one nothing but infighting and everybody shitflinging against each other because they get envious if some other commercial artist gets more followers than them and a lot of them cheat like tracing or AI help to draw which is bad already enough, but the moment others notice they start a call out war against them even though they're cheating themselves.
Everybody is out for each others throats it's only me and a few others being spared because we do it for free (lel). Tbh I don't care about these people and I am happy if they delete their twitter accs for good and fuck off to tumblr. Fanart is about enjoyment and love.
No.7158
>>7140>so it feels like in the end this whole migration and artists throwing away their established follower base was for nothing.Many of the artists I've seen migrating to other platforms and deleting pictures on twitter or locking their profiles are Asian and their main reason for doing that was that they really don't like the removal of the blocking feature at all. They tend to block underage followers and people, bots and people who post leaks and spoilers all the time and people who start shit with them so it's understandable, and I do that too so that's also why I'm using bluesky a lot more than twitter now. I deleted my pictures, except for video game screenshots because I don't want all the people I blocked and I know irl to be able to guess who I could be based on what I posted. So far I've seen a lot of English speaking artists who were like "thank god I didn't delete my art, I bet the ones who did feel stupid lol" but almost all of them have horrible art and barely any followers so nobody wants to see their shit in the first place, and the rest are people who make money off their art so they still need to be able to advertise their art and announce when they can take commissions.
>>7141Absolutely fucking not. Whoever says that the characters in BL are basically women are high on meth or exclusively reading cutesy manga where the most scandalous thing that happen is handholding.
>it’s about women making males non threateningThe most popular BL manga tend to not fit that description at all.

'BL/shonen'-like yuri pretty much sums up my taste in yuri, I like rivals/enemies who fight whether it's M/M or F/F and can confirm I also love Madoka ships but I'm personally most into Homura/Mami and Kyoko/Mami.

No.7164

tbh I don't bother to be the change I want to see here because it's too much work with no reward. My current pairing alone already has almost 2k fanarts that I have saved and it's new. Imagine the hours I would waste uploading all of these artworks, each with 100 tags that danbooru demands and all assuming that the mods would greenlight it to begin with (they wouldn't).
Add to that that the artists don't like uploads. I am no fandom cop here and I post their art on anonymous image boards, but this different IMO than uploading them on proper galleries under a user name. I betray their trust and the worst case scenario is that they notice and delete their accounts or use some ugly "no repost" watermark in the future. No thanks.
No.7169

>I think once you up something to the internet it's fair game to archiveYeah this is the real point of the boorus. Artists might nuke their accounts and even places like tumblr might die or delete art, there needs to be a place that archives everything or else it will be gone one day. Preferably a website with proper tagging system, high res versions of the art and no forcing of a log in, pinterest is fucking shit.

There are so many artists who I loved back in 2009/2010 that I have art of in folders but no way of tracking down.
If you want to into-booru:
Danbooru: is by far the best imo just in terms of tagging, filtering, no ads, community (people are actually very willing to help on the forums and discord), but it's drawback is that until you contribute enough you only have 2-tag searches (so "male_focus ikari_shinji" but not "male_focus ikari_shinji mug") and they are particular about sourcing since they want to attribute to the artist. So you can post deleted works, you just need to leave a comment explaining where it came from so it'll be approved. "Deleted" images are still archived and searchable, but hidden by default. I use it every day and am bias towards it lol.
Gelbooru: is the laxer brother, it automatically mirrors Danbooru so everything upped to Dan is also upped to Gel by default. They offer more tag searches but in turn have gross porn ads if you don't use ad-block. Some people do up to it since it is less stingy on stuff like sourcing and quality but it's mainly a mirror.
TBIB: This is a mirror of Danbooru, Gelbooru, e621, and a few other boorus. If you ever need to search every site at once it'll help but you can't actually up to it.
Sankaku: Former booru, now misogynistic AI wasteland. Theres a lot of old 2008 era art on here not archived anywhere else but it's impossible to use in it's current state.
AIbooru: Booru for just AI, you need to post what module you generated the image from. Allows yaoi but not bara.
Zerochan: A booru without porn, there aren't enough tags for me personally so you can't really narrow down specific images with characters but if you just want images of Shinji without any chance of finding him getting raped by Asuka this would a good booru.
Eshuushuu: Like above its a pornless booru. I'd say it's more "girly" than others, has a lot of old art but not enough tags to search properly imo.
Rule34.xxx: You want to post ms-paint porn? This is the site, you don't even need to tag your stuff just dump it all. An accrused booru that allows most stuff that is porn and not lolisho.
Honestly however you choose to save your images I wish you luck!

Wow what an interesting dynamic.
Fuck all this purity shit. Het stuff in anime is almost always crap because weebs can't take actual relationships, it has to be super pure and the girls HAVE to be written as nothing but "the girl" otherwise it's woke or something. Meanwhile the males aren't allowed to reciprocate the interest for some fucking reason. The girl is just a trophy to win. Once the MCs have won them they don't matter anymore.

I remember a time when it wasn't so bad and I and others participated and drew shit. Someone asked to draw Subaru from hack Sign driving a Subaru, it was so funny so I drew it. Someone asked for funny Kill la Kill edits or homages to old music bands and all that. Now it's just retarded spergs posting the exact same shit.
Sorry bro, drawing a generic moe blob with some other moe blob's generic clothes is too boring to me. It seems like others feel the same because I barely see any artist anymore.

An artist I follow on twitter just posted some /ex/ content involving an eye socket in a poipiku log and my first thought was "Haha rock on, you funky little degenerate" but it also makes me reflect on how it'd bother me if it was a female character but I'm cool with it being a male. Of course it makes sense and I'm sure most people couldn't stomach ryona of their own sex that well. I think at some point I'd like to draw male ryona too.
No.7199
>>7198This is really weird for me. I am generally neutral and don't relate based on gender but I judge things differently based on whether the artist is a fujo or a (male) otaku.
I believe it comes from assumptions about the intention behind art. It's surely biased, because I am a fujo myself. But when a fujo does something mean to a 2D guy I assume it was her fav, I assume she genuinely loves that guy and I assume that she has story rich headcanons about him, that she also treats him nicely sometimes and that she just likes to see him react to vastly different scenarios to explore his personality. This doesn't contradict that it's porn. Fujo fics explore characters in PwP fics too to have both.
Anyway, thing is if a guy does the same with a 2D girl I assume he's a brainless otaku lmao. I never met otaku that actually cared about the personality of the waifus or think up cool headcanons for them that aren't tradwife related. So if an otaku does it I assume it's some denerated power fantasy about making waifus their own.
A big difference is that they self-ship or let some faceless rapist do the work, whereas fujos usually use a canon character to fuck the eye hole or do the rape. It's the context and the power balance (girl vs big guy VS guy vs guy) that hits differently for me.
No.7200
>>7199>>7198It's similar to how fujos may write and draw smut about their faves but they'll also painstakingly write 7'000 word au's where the characters live and grow old together and create fanart that explores the different dynamics the characters might have to be in different scenarios which may occasionally feature ryona
Men will draw their waifu of the week getting plowed and beheaded but they don't do it out of a sense of genuinely enjoying the character and picturing different dynamics with her, they definitely don't write au's about their faves unless it's an au where there's no plot related tension so she gets to be fucked by the self insert protagonist without the silly story getting in the way, they just do it because it makes their dick hard, sometimes even because they dislike the character and want to punish her, if you look at the average guro featuring a male character and then the same featuring a female, other than the sex of the character the presentation will usually be incredibly different

I don't know if the artist I'm referring to, @cho_kuuki, is a woman but I get that impression because 99.9% of the artist's media tab is rabbit men with tired-looking eyes making sleazy expressions and being bullied to varying degrees. It gives me the impression of the type of female artist who has a fetish for pathetic men.

Waifu drawthread has always been for waifuposting, some of those requesters have been posting the same girl for almost twenty years and if they ask for anything more interesting than an outfit swap it causes huge infights and accusations of "using her as a fetish vessel". The culture's maddening but there's always the main drawthread, where your options are lewd shit, lewdshit, Shieldherofag, more lewdshit, and that one autistic squirrel guy.
>>7199Yeah, whenever I open a pixiv tag for a series and see some guy drawing violent images of female characters I assume malicious intent, that they hate her and don't care for her as a character, just have a sick fetish for causing distress and pain. But when a fujo does it to a male character it's a fetish for his distress and pain because he is interesting to see react to that. It sounds like bullshit when I put it in writing but I can't shake it. I know fujos who do mob torture shit and are really into abuse porn and prostituting NTR depravity, but I still trust them to actually use the appeals of the original character for that. They still retweet the old men married life art of the same guys and get mad if canon is cruel to them.
>>7201These days it's not about artists knowing a board exists but how likely/quickly the image starts turning up on google image search. Anything you post on 4chan will immediately come up before the original post in reverse image results now and artists don't care if it got deleted when the thread 404'd.
>>7203On that second paragraph, I think it's because you value the emotional pain. You want the catharsis of meaning behind it, the physical is just an extension of suffering or intent. Kind of like even though visually it's "character gets fucked up" it's mental anguish before physical representation. Whereas physical anguish first, or without explored mental anguish, is just… there. It loses track of the character and all you have left is the violent act. The violent act is not the draw but the follow through of what drew you to it. When it's two characters interacting you need to maintain who they both are or it's just the violent act again.

over and over bruh. I did find a prompt I liked, but I think the thread hit limit before I got to it and never saw another prompt I liked again after

>>7204It can be selfinserty when they have the combination of permabottom AND perma trans headcanon for their fave because it's either projection or being a hetshipper at their core but I wouldn't consider this type of person an actual fujo.

>>7206>You want the catharsis of meaning behind it, the physical is just an extension of suffering or intent.I also noticed that porn art like that is usually pretty (and hot), the guy might break and cum but he's still handsome/moe, whatever he usually is. Coomer art is often so fucking ugly and the girls are made to look retarded as shit with the ahegao that all look the same just as the fucked proportions and distorted positions they assume. This is one of the main reasons for why I cannot get into most het porn. Fujo porn is usually on-model lmao

>>7207What I despise most about AI tards is that they are all just people who obsessively crave clout and attention, they aren't willing to put a single little piece of effort into it which is why they aren't artists or anything at all. Everybody can learn to draw, an older fujo friend started to draw with 40(!) and she is GOOD now, two years later. You noticed her getting better every month.
And then there amateurish sketches. I love and save them if someone draws my favs like that. But AI bros don't do that either no. That would require a minimum of work. They don't care about art they just want the twitter clout. If instead of art users would get followers and clicks for posting their turds AI bros would post every literal shit they make. It's solely about the results so I don't give a shit about their whining. If they cared, they could learn to draw. Even that youtube celeb (piediepew?) learned to draw within 100 days I heard. There is no excuse.
