vrc is good only in priv or small pc-only public lobbies. i've been to a couple black cat publics and it's insane how many kids there are running around in nsfw avatars, actually depressing.
great pugs are pretty okay for avoiding children on friday/saturday nights but its almost entirely moids, the only women i've seen in there were either normie or tagging along with their bfs lol

I popped in it around 2017 curiously on my desktop and stumbled on what sounded like a 50 year old chain smoker giving advice in a Touhou Momiji avatar without any irony or care. I think at that time it was more small and fun and everyone wanted to help each other. popularity ruins everything.

I have a soft spot for the Uganda Knuckles since I got into VRchat around their peak due to see the ChipsxNuts streams on twitch. The game had some great energy back then

sorry for necro but are there any nonas who still play vrc & if so do you have any advice for meeting anyone other than totally retarded moids and e-girl avis? i've met a few nice people but nobody that i really clicked or kept in contact with.
i wonder if there would still be interest in a cc vr meetup? i have the free rn time to organize it

Try Resonite!

also Woman Eating by Claire Kohda was good, it was less man-killing forward than i liked, but it was good nevertheless

should also have said i'm only really interested in books by female authours

you might like shy girl by mia ballard? i wish there was more man killing but the man killing that does happen is really satisfying

Edible Woman by Margaret Atwood

Kim Kitsuragi

>>37330
What sets you off about him? I haven't played very much of his game but he just seems kind inoffensive at worst?

>>37339
He is very boring yet very popular which personally offends me. There are so many actually interesting characters in his particular game too. And he’s homosexual

>>37340
I think people just associate themselves with Harrier and would like to have a friend who would stoically endure their cringe.

>>37340
omg Nona I get you so much

I don't understand why he's so likeable because none of this personality is actually rewarding in any way besides being kinda responsible with his life. And maybe having some authority and spine?

The reason people like him, in my opinion, is because he's a convenient person. Not so much to himself as much as to everyone else.
He looks after you, keeps you in check, absolving you from responsibility for yourself and certain decision making.
He doesn't allow himself to be expressive, removing the "inconvenience" of dealing with his negative emotions for you. Hell, he doesn't even have any real political opinions besides racism bad and doing the right thing good.
He doesn't have any ambition instead he just resorts to serving others for shit pay really. Because it's noble or something.
But he has high authority I guess which is respectable.

But guess what? Redditors will rave on and on about how wholesome 100 chungus this guy is, but guess what. In the real world nobody actually really likes or rewards this type of person, besides mentally ill people seeing some sort of weird made up fantasy in him. People will go after the fun person, the person with emotions or status or you know someone who will empathize on a deeper level and not just parent them.

I've never seen anyone actually like people like Kim and not being nice to them just cause they are inoffensive.

Where'd you get them?

They got a new song

YOLO is the most similar show to this place that I can think of.

He would but he would run off to his next adventure as soon as he solves your problem

Hey espioyume! We've moved to the 8ch moe /fast/ board in the meantime if you didn't know

>>36958
Dw, I'm well aware. I was on /fast/ before I was on /sthg/. Thanks though!

THIS BOARD IS GREEN
ELPHABA IS GREEN

Making the black woman green seems really weird. I only read the books, didn't see the play, but Elphaba being green was because the Wizard of Oz was her bio dad after he gave Elphaba's mother some green snake oil. She wasn't a racism allegory. The talking Animals were the allegory (worse, I know.) Just looks so uncanny to make her green.

Grande on her way to win Best Supporting Actress awards

WICKED SECOND TRAILER IS OUT!

I think they ruined the final note of the song in the film compared to the musical but otherwise pretty great film.

Kaze No Tairiku a.k.a The Weathering Continent.
Key the Metal Idol.
Arslan, the original OVA.
Anything by Masamune Shirow.
Anything by Leiji Matsumoto.
Anything by Mamoru Oshii.
Honneamise no Tsubasa.
Visions of Escaflowne.
3x3 Eyes.

The list goes on honestly.

i looked some of them up and the first two seem to have a lot of sexualized photos of the female characters. it could just be the official art tho idk

Dororo the Anime isnt old but the source material is. Beautifully animated action. Every few episodes theres a new B plot with some good drama.
Trigun is a classic and has probably the most 90s aethetic you can find if you really that old feel.
FMA and FMA brotherhood have some fanservice sprinkled in but its few and far between
I highly recomend Golden Kamuy if you truly want a unique story that keep you on edge. It has fanservice…but its all centered on the male characters…

>>37301
If you're into historical older animes I definitely recommend The Rose of Versailles. It's a bit cheesy in certain places but it's a cozy watch.

>>37301
Nice thread. I'm also displeased by all the creepy sexual stuff plaguing most modern animes.

.hack//SIGN is one of my top favorite older series. It's an early isekai that tells a very serious, dark story. It doesn't have much action but the interactions between characters, and the mystery they are following, are very interesting. Also it has one of the best anime OSTs I've ever heard.

Overall, .hack is a very detailed series involving multiple animes, games, and books. There are other .hack animes but imo SIGN was the best one. I'd watch ROOTS only if you are planning to play GU directly afterward since it's a prequel story for that game. And the other animes only if you are interested in some additional lore.

>>37311
I've watched the first 3 series you mentioned and they are also excellent recommendations. Dororo was my favorite out of those.

FFVIII for sure! Love the story and how easily you can steamroll everything with good draws. Dissidia was a lot of fun too, once I understood how to play it.
I thought I might go to the FF Magic the Gathering prerelease this weekend, but it was just too smelly…

>>37299
No way, I love 8-bit theater! It's a comedy, it's not supposed to have fleshed out characters or a real plot or setting.
>it is not clever
I think it's pretty witty.

>>37302
okay, it had some funny jokes. but i felt like it beat me over the head with them, or something. maybe its better than i remember.
>It's a comedy, it's not supposed to have fleshed out characters or a real plot or setting.
I know, but felt like I needed.. something, idk. some indication of a progression, of some kind. fwiw i could never get into sitcoms or the like

I just finished the show Shameless off of so many recommendations.
It starts out weak as it is but shows some potential, then it very quickly makes every single character completely hateable and unsympathetic, then by the later seasons it devolves into just a far, far worse Always Sunny. Every Gallagher is the exact same person.
>Neurotic, substance abusing, petulant, selfish, portrayed as "smart" while making the least intelligent decisions possible.
You can't actually create a family dynamic this way because it's all just clones of one person screaming at each other.
I thought Sopranos was the most overrated show I would ever see but that at least has SOME things about it that I like. This show is irredeemable trash.

>>37307
Agreed. I'm sick to death of "mean people doing mean things" shows. Life is full of mean people doing mean things. I prefer media that prepares the viewer to react positively in the face of it. CGDCT anime are a nice relief, but how about a hero? Everyday heroes choosing kindness when meanness would be easier?

>>37146
Same. I really liked the show the first couple of seasons but having to watch Bojack make the stupidest decisions over and over again and continuing to wallow in his self-pity got tiring.

The only saving grace for me was Princess Carolyn who also made some stupid choices but at least remained relatable.
