Go support them! It's a WIP so hopefully they get enough encouragement to make a full one!

Wasn't Ikura suppose to "get shinji!" to be a transgender? Because there is offical fanart where Ikura becomes transtender.

Also why does the angles look like Deathnote characters? they're like gothic sort of characters, it's like the poeple killed in Deathnore became angles, where they male?

/jp/ , Otaku and weeb thread.

This thread is to talk about things on Japanese culture, and the good and bad of it

ITT We discuss about our favorite Vtubers, corpo and indie alike. Liveposting, (Spoilered) Porn and Rateposting are all encouraged.

I'll start with my own recommendation:

Rie Himemiya from Phase Connect [EN] Gen 2 Phase Alias. A Vsinger with great covers and original songs such as Love Potion #520 and ゲテモノ (Bizarre Food) / Utsu-P ♡ to give you two examples.

Her streams as of now center around variety gaming such as her recent playthrough of Pokémon HG/SS as her first Pokémon game although she is mostly focused on Limbus Company and Library of Ruina as well as community projects like Date Ideas for Valentines season or making a love song out of Schizophrenic Maros.

However I do recommend her older VODs as well such as Sandtrix or Gayraoke for her humor and great chat interaction. If you want something more recent check out her 100 songs for 100k Christmas Special from last year. Remember to do your reps and backreading

Let's see
>Guts is a low ass commoner bastard born from a corpse, meant to die, raised in a hellish world (that's literally just the same as our own before Guts encounters any actual demons) so harsh and cruel he likely has severe PTSD by the time he's 15
>Best friend Griffith is a social climbing piece of shit who has to murder and scheme to almost make it to the top, even then the ruling class tells him to go fuck himself and he has to sell his soul to the devil and murder all his friends to finally make it
>The ruling class are mostly monsters; the King is a pedophile nut that tries raping his own daughter, the "nicest" nobles were wrapped up in a brutal inquisition
>The whole world is ruled by an impersonal, most amoral entity created by human will but superseding all humans, controlling their lives based on it's own whims which are of course encouraged by the worst human impulses
>The thing everyone worships is literally evil itself
>Even the leaders of the apostles are pawns of the Market, err…."Idea of Evil"
Fuck it
The godhand are the bourgeoisie
The apostles are the petit bourgeois
Fuck yea

We need more stories where the villain is never redeemed (at least, not explicitly), but does not die either. Instead the hero makes peace with them, accepts them for the vile assholes they are, and begrudgingly respects them for it once the hero had grown powerful enough to stand up to them and prevent them from hurting innocents (or at least hurting innocents on scale).

The 3rd and 4rd POTC movies had nailed it with their depiction of the relatonship between Jack and Barbossa before the fifth movie had to ruin everything.

The idea that every antagonist should end up either "redeemed" (read - unilaterally and uncritically submit to your notions of morality), either dead is very reactionary actually once you think about it.
