Hey, I have a Retrospring now so you can ask me random shit and I'll respond.
I love questions about 13 Sentinels, Persona, Umineko, Zero Escape, TWEWY, Danganronpa, & Final Fantasy 12-14! Probably more too, just ask!
@Qwerty_Soda
All the people posting examples here don't get it, stop posting subtext. Every shounen is ridiculously gay when you look at the subtext, but that's not good enough. It needs to be text.
@cyyberstar
@strwblitzy
rapists are not always physically ugly, morbidly obese creeps who live in their mothers' basements. attractive people can be monsters too, and to insist that depicting rapists as attractive is glorification, is highly dangerous and legitimately problematic
@ViavaV2
who transitions *from* Persona *to* Danganronpa? Isn't it like, always the other way around? Danganronpa is almost exclusively played by 12-14 year olds, then people move on to other franchises like Persona.
@hates_place
I've watched the original and I'm genuinely confused at what the fuck I'm even looking at, like, what is this direction? this acting? the effects? I almost never complain about effects but these just look so strange to me
@VAsonicmega
@3ccedenteslast_
love how most of the "problematic" stuff is also literally from a decade ago because they had to go digging that far to find anything they could do enough mental gymnastics on, and expect you to be the same person after all of that time.
@jhonpl55
@Qwerty_Soda
yes but they're never blatantly gay either. Naruto doesn't wanna rail Sasuke. If there is even 1% plausible deniability it isn't good enough
@VAsonicmega
the way I went "holy fuck is Sean Chiplock a Zero Escape fan I didn't think he could get more based" and then I remembered YOU VOICE SANTA
@CptAstro
honestly with how difficult they can be to handle in comparison to most other bosses, I think I can agree with this. It would also further incentivise people to deal with them faster, not just because they're dangerous, but also valuable.
@LZeePZee
I mean hey, P5 was arguably the single most culturally mainstream JRPG since FF7, at least here in Australia. It was the JRPG for people who hated JRPGs. It makes a lot of sense for people to have only played P5 and not much else. We all started somewhere.
@acervolipsync
One of the all time best lip syncs and it has no tricks, stunts or extreme choreography. Willow won the season here. Absolute fucking QUEEN shit.
@VAsonicmega
literally every performance in 13 Sentinels is criminally underrated and I sincerely believe at least half of the cast could've won awards for it. a lot of spoilers abound unfortunately so providing clips is difficult please just play the game it's phenomenal
@saposaki_
actually they should put speedo akihiko with no shirt in an advertisement at the start like Rise, and make him fix the cast's issues with the power of homoeroticism and seducing villains until they don't want to be villains anymore
@aniki0z
It's cause most americans only think about America, and forget that the rest of the world exists and is different. You'll never see them talking about indigenous representation for the cultures of other countries.
@akechigoroboy
multiple universes exist, and always have existed, and they're all canon.
Trinity Soul and Detective Naoto are the only Persona media even *debateably* non-canon.
@aniki0z
every Miku Hatsune is in every universe, meanwhile universes get one spiderperson, which is why Miku Hatsune is stronger than spiderpeople and also god
@McSquirrely_17
@RobinStonez
Gurren Lagann is a Gainax production, the reason the style is the same is because it's directed by Hiroyuki Imaishi, that's who you're actually praising.
@TanukiGirlMichi
Did you actually watch the show?
The reason he's in women's clothes is because the two need to synchronise enough to be able to fight together in Angel combat instead of just bickering with each other, this is part of a montage of them hating each other.
@drrksaturday
As someone who no longer ships Nagito and Hajime, Nagito is canonically gay for Hajime and it's really not subtle as long as you have media literacy above that of a 14 year old...which, well, most DR fans are 14 year olds.
Just cutting your leg in the wrong spot is an almost certain death sentence, are you so braindead you actually think this is something you can do outside of a hospital without dying? And do you think any medical professional would be willing to cut off your leg for no reason? 🧵
@Sora_FinalMix
@AyyTeeNormEee
@StellaNoxEclair
or! we could maybe not beat up a survivor of abuse from both his father and teacher for literally no reason and leave him passed out in the middle of the night nowhere near his home after he just saved the lives of his party!
of all the jokes to defend this ain't it chief
@ijaybol
S13 was so messy lmfao but most Drag Race of the VH1 eras has been, the production is distinctly worse than the Logo eras.
The editing may have been more unfair in Logo times but they tried way harder for storylines and engaging television than they do now. It's sad really.
@persona3makoto
Shoji Meguro is unfairly put on a pedestal when Atlus has had plenty of other extremely talented composers over the years, both on Persona titles and other franchises. Ryota Kozuka, Toshiko Tasaki and Hidehito Aoki are just some of the names you should seriously check out.
@Schaffrillas
I think 3 has the highest highs, but 5 is the best overall experience. Lol not 4. 3 Reload has potential to be the new best entry in the series depending on the gameplay and story changes/additions
@xdorKusmaxIMusx
@nooodle_bath
To add onto this the code has romance flags left over in his confidant that go unused. He was very obviously canonically bisexual and that can be easily seen across his characterisation in almost everything Persona 4...except for Golden's new content, which is why Golden is worse
@mageknight14
NEO is a game that really needs to be played twice in my opinion, it can be really easy to miss a lot of the characterisation and growth on the first read because of how subtle a lot of it is.
@WesleyW626
@DomTheBombYT
@thegameawards
NaughtyDog is incredibly abusive and exploitative towards its staff. At least Vanillaware who made 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim (the game my pfp is from) aren't, and they made a much more ambitious, much better game to boot! Almost like respecting your staff makes good games~
@itsbelakboy
tbh as much as Art slayed this episode it might as well have been a top 1, considering Karen and especially Scarlet were never going to win, and Art had been eliminated and had no challenge wins.
Elektra deserved a shot at the crown I'm still mad she's the most robbed queen ever
@kettakujo
Yuri so bad I wish it was written for straight men because at least it would be SOMETHING
I think a lot of it is because Vaggie is like...not voice acted? I don't know what the fuck the deal is with the voice but I really don't like the performance.
@aatracoes
don't diss MMORPGs they have some of the best UI in the industry because unlike most games they're usually insanely customisable to the point you can do basically anything with them
@vaxznas
the fandom has fucking destroyed Nagito when he was genuinely a phenomenal character and far above most of Kazutaka Kodaka's other characters.
@armormodechang
I don't think anyone talks about Sazh in FF13 which sucks because he's probably the one consistently well written character in that game lmao
@fatalattracion
@acervolipsync
you can tell the only reason they didn't save them was because:
A. They didn't give a fuck about Marcia Marcia Marcia
B. They were doing damage control after S14 had 5 episodes that didn't progress the competition
@didyaknowtensei
the best atlus representation is probably Persona 3's several bisexual characters with Kotone, Aigis and Ryoji, unless I'm forgetting about some across over other MegaTen franchises.
the real best atlus representation isn't even theirs though, they just published 13 Sentinels
@ScottFalco
my question is how hard are Nintendo riding Illumination to force them to actually do a good job, because knowing Illumination...there's no way they're putting this much love into the project without heavy supervision and quality assurance
@VAsonicmega
@SarahTheKitty7
man I'm so glad you just don't give a fuck
99% of these puritan fuckwits would know next to nothing about your actual career. They probably have no idea about some of the spicier characters you voice like Aiden and Ace. It fucking sucks to see people try to cancel over nothing.
@M7_Reaper
@lucisev
@PGalaxyPurple
except that she literally tried to get a divorce and he wouldn't let her? also at this point she thought he was potentially cheating on her with his second phone? she made it very clear she did not want to be his wife anymore. Breaking Bad is a media literacy test at this point.
@TrashKing_01
He was also very disappointed that Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition didn't even try to get him back, considering Yuri Lowell is one of his favourite roles.
There are multiple instances of him returning to roles in Japanese games.
@sonicmega
I hate that people refuse to just, actively ignore shit like this. The best thing to do if you don't want these games to be successful, is to actively avoid talking about it and prevent it from getting any traction. Hate-playing or hate-clicking is still playing and clicking.
Even without the obviously fucking moronic idea that they cut off their own leg for a fetish and survived that, are you saying you're not allowed to be attracted to disabled people? Because that's ableism. Like straight up that is discrimination against disabled people.
@thenickofit
I believe in this specific instance this is actually a content farm that does dozens of worthless "react" videos like this a day and they're definitely not actually going to watch the show
@ProChara
tbh it'd be interesting to see a meta where shooters are the worst weapons in the game and everyone uses the actually creative and interesting weapon classes instead
@het3rophobic
@PeachiieKeen
There's literally a cut confession scene with voice acting in both languages, his closeted bisexuality and internalised homophobia are consistent traits in almost every official depiction of the character and he still has romance flags in his social link code. Yosuke is canon bi.
@lucio_soliz
@_LaraJenn
it's almost like piracy is a crime and directly linking to piracy sites in public spaces is a fucking terrible idea because it means it gets taken down, are you dense?
@Exellocks
not semi-canon, explicitly canon.
also we've had a fair few with P3 specifically, even if they're one sided. Ryoji and Aigis each love both gendered protags.
You harassed someone off the internet over, at best, shit that doesn't fucking matter like drawing art of topics so taboo they're featured regularly on one of the most famous TV series of all time, Game of Thrones, and at worst were obviously fucking impossible and moronic.
I understand that a lot of this puritan, neo-conservative movement is either underage or otherwise inexperienced with the world, but you need to understand that you're behaving exactly like the conservative and religious organisations you hate. You just use different vocabulary.
