This is the most random combination of sounds I've ever heard

I wish I were cool enough to hang with goths :<

Just go to a goth club, anon, they're great fun

comfy k-indie

Well, I just dived in and got Amnesia: Memories. I hope I picked a good one for first otome, the art style looks pretty nice compared to many at least.

I played Geten no Hana (下天の華) a few months ago. I didn't really like the historical representations except Nobunaga-sama. I really like Nobunaga and I played the game because of him. But when you forget historical aspect it's pretty nice, I guess. Made by KOEI btw.

Are there any good PC otome where you don't have to pick a route from the start?

Hakuoki (Edo Blossoms & Kyoto Winds)
Hakuoki is my favorite otome game. Nay, I dare say, it's the best otome game ever made. It's almost too good to be an otome game. I was happy to see a PC version but unfortunately the PC version doesn't have the original Hakuoki OST from the PSP version, the Western outfits are worse (the PSP ones were intricate and detailed and I wish I could see a higher resolution of those, the new ones look like modern art) and the unique CGs of the default 5 which you unlock after you complete their route.

Hustle Cat (western)
Monochrome Heaven (fan translated)

Most otome games (except from mobile ones) have a common route and you don't need to pick from the start. The only non-mobile ones that I know of which make you choose someone from start are Amnesia games and partially, Nameless.

If anyone is interested, MangaGamer is conducting their yearly survey where you can beg for translations.

Wait for a sale. I don't play this game but I've heard Sims 4 add-ons sometimes get discounts on the Origin website or elsewhere.

And what do you mean by changing locations?

I want to try using VPN to change my location, the prices are different in every country, but I do not know if it is worth trying because I read I can get easily banned.

I made a sort of gallery with nice light references here but I don't know how long the images are going to stay on that site: https://postimg.cc/gallery/1bm51pmrs/

Gah thank you anon and also keep doing your thing! I love how you render the human form

>>4623
You're really skilled, I'm happy I made and bumped this thread. Of course references are cool too.

I know this is a year old, but I randomly remembered posting this today and went to look for a source. Apparently those pages are all there is, it's an original by doujinshi artist Mikawa Miso.

yuru camp's /u/ is pretty subtle so far.

This seems like it was made for this thread/site.

Chikorita.

>>4629
Chikorita will always be my baby. Espeon is a close runner-up

It always used to be Vaporeon when I was younger.
But my favourite real animal has always been owls, so when this cutie came out I was done.

Well, the dudette actually contributed.

>>4556
The question was "Should someone's actions be excused if they make stuff that's popular" and the anon's response was "Anyone who likes their stuff is stupid anyway / anyone who lets themselves be mistreated is stupid anyway". It's not really a contribution because it doesn't pertain to the actual question asked.

>>4557
How are these not on topic though?
>The answer is yes. Art surpasses the artist.
>But yes, I do support boycotting the fuck out of Hollywood. Fuck the actress, fuck the director, fuck them all.

It's an edgy post but it has clearly stated opinions directly related to the topic the OP gave (also the OP's topic is slightly different than yours, it's "do you think the artist can ever be separated from the art?")

What about MJ?
>>>/x/1191

Anyone gonna watch the new doc?

Art is an expression of the artist and can encompass any number of that artist's traits. Had that artist lacked some of those traits, even the negative ones, his or her work might have been completely different.
For instance, Lovecraft's fear of the unknown is what lead him to write his iconic mythos, but it also made him uncomfortable with sex, minorities, and mathematics.

So, if you find something you really like that was made by a not-so-good, or downright sick and evil, person, treat it as a learning experience. The line between good and evil does not run between people. It runs down the middle of every man and woman's heart.

With that said, little of what Hollywood produces is actually worth this sort of consideration. It's garbage made by garbage people to reaffirm terrible attitudes in society. Don't consume it.

perfect timing op. my friend and i are trying to make a "manga/comic" out of a shitty in-joke we had in our circle of friends. judging from the fact that we canceled it 7 times and now only two people are working on it, it's going to be shit.

what are shitty comic tropes we must absolutely
avoid?

i must mention that neither of us actually like reading or writing or comics. don't worry about the art i'll figure something out.

>>4422
i forgot to mention the most important part. there's not much to tell yet but it's about a princess whose family gets overthrown and she loses her nobility, and her purpose is to rise again. btw, since the original joke was about an anime with my friends being as characters, she's my representative, and most characters will be based on real people.

>>4422
>what are shitty comic tropes we must absolutely avoid?
This is broad, I'd just recommend reading the Tv-tropes website.
Look up a comic you know and see how many tropes it has.
Some are positive and you should use them, but others are clearly stupid or weak.
>>4423
>main character is a self-insert
There's nothing wrong at all with this by itself, but since you asked about shitty tropes, I guess avoid any obvious power fantasies or too cleanly 'working things out' for the main character. People like a self-insert if it's real, not half-real half-my-perfect-fantasy.

But yeah you could have it like almost a loose biographical type comic if the characters are all people you know. Those are really popular, even if the setting is fantastcial or something.

>>4424
The character isn't a literal self insert, none of them are. We'd make an RP if it were to be like that. What I meant to say was, the characters' personalities are all based on real people.
>'working things out' for the main character
I'll be honest we kind of did that. We made the protagonist's brother serve the new king who usurped power, but we made a eunuch help the protagonist flee to the countryside. We even made the eunuch give her a blessed lucky charm.

What do you expect from a story that has
1. a female protagonist
2. somewhat medieval setting
3. countries that politically resemble the balkans
4. magic that is difficult to control and mostly exclusive to some areas
or should I ask the book thread instead?

>>4419
that's such a shame! i used to love ksbd, even bought the physical vol 1 and donated to the author's patreon. i guess i havent checked up on it in a while because i had no idea how disappointing it became :/

as for shitty webcomics, oh joy sex toy is hilariously awful

I thought it was entertaining enough, even though it was dumb as fuck in some places. A lot of the stalking was really unrealistic especially in [[current year]] where you can't just keep logging into accounts with a stolen phone on constantly changing wifi networks (considering she got a new phone and SIM so the old one would've been disabled).

Joe was such an incel.

A lot of it was also sheer dumb luck and made it hard to sustain disbelief. Beck was unlikeable to me but I guess that was the point of her character, because so many people in the aftermath of the show were reeeing about how she was a bad person cheating on her bf and being pretentious while that was done on purpose to highlight how little it takes for the audience to justify the actions of a stalker and serial killer.

Peach was fun and I wanted Beck to run off to Paris with her, except she, too, had to be an obsessed manipulator instead of just being a good friend and so it wouldn't have been an informed choice by Beck, just trading one stalker for another..

The entire red ladle subplot was top kek, what amazing bullshit lmao
