Hazelst's question page 1 (46)

talk about something in your native language and then another user can only respond using their native language. to make this more interesting for anglos you can talk like you have an accent to distinguish which anglosphere country you're from.

just watched a video of a guy doing multiple english accents and the brit one just did something to me.

could be great characters stuck in a shitty series or characters that grew on you but you're just not into the type of series they're in.
for me it's yuuji kazami from grisaia. he's cool, competent, and has a sense of humor. too bad i hate ecchi harem which is what his story is about.

what's your favorite game/what's the best game you played recently. i just played elevator hitch from itch io and it's so good. my favorite will always be ace attorney though

any predictions? which characters would you want to survive?

What is your wish?

I stopped reading it years ago, but i used to be an avid reader. It feels weirdly melancholic knowing it will end soon. How do you think the story will end, do you think hori is going to take the naruto route and pair up everyone with everyone?

what manga/manhwa/manhua/anime/novel etc. that has been discontinued, cancelled, axed, or abruptly stopped that you still grief about to this day. mine will always be YOI, mappa never made an announcement but there's no doubt they've definitely dropped it.

does anyone have a recommendation for historical movies with bromance or no girls action like Lawrence of Arabia

Regarding the syundei incident a while ago

- if you're out of the loop, long story short : ganbare nakamura got adapted to anime. The anime basically "sanitized" the story. Some people found out about the source material and went up to the author's twitter profile and harassed them while calling them a pedophile. The author ended up deleting their account.

Personally, i joined fandoms way before pro/antiship bullshit was a thing. But i'm starting to get annoyed with these moral police. Especially if they started harassing artist/creators just because they don't like something about them. Idk maybe it's just a cultural difference here in asia, but everytime western fans start moral policing fictional works it just feel so hypocritical. Like why are you so worked up over a nothingburger and harass normal people but stay silent towards your actual pedophile leaders (also those files were so bad it brought america's reputation to a whole new low, kids in china unironically think you guys eat people now).

thoughts on the newest black hair/white hair doomed yaoi? do you think the studio handled the adaptation well?

What's your weirdest, most unthinkable ships that needs to be heard

-X uses AI (elon even added a button where people can instantly feed your art to and desecrate it with AI)
-bluesky uses AI
-tumblr uses AI
-pixiv and deviantart are just full of AI arts now
fuck i feel sorry for artists there's genuinely nowhere else to go. I'm not an artist myself but i like indulging in fanarts of my favorite show. It's grim how niche sites like this, AO3, and a fucking alt-right site like 4chan are the only places that are
safe from AI (for now).

i don't go here much anymore, just an observation i've had from skimming the questions

I feel like this site is heavily dominated by korean manhwas now. Do you guys still read mangas (even non bl)? Why is it not as popular as korean manhwas here? I remember when at least some manga titles were equally very popular here like finder series, yarichin bitch club, koisuru boukun, megumi tsumugi, etc. But now there's only like one or two mangas that only shows up for a couple of days on the front page. Even on the feeds section i see more people talk about manhwas than mangas. Why is that?

the best is madhouse for me, from the eccentric way they elevated death note to the crazy good animations they're able to make like one punch man s1, this studio is just legendary.
while the worst is mappa, i don't even need to elaborate on this one.

Something that's widely hated, disliked, or controversial that you like.

For me it's
-hetalia (i've always liked geopolitics so anthropomorphizing a nation's characteristics and relationships is an interesting concept for me. It made me want to learn other countries' culture and history just so i can understand the characters better).

-hazbin (i've always liked musicals thanks to mamma mia, the writing could be better but everything else have insane production quality, and since it's openly queer it feels so refreshing to have characters you ship have moments showing them attracted to or yearning for another without hiding behind labels like 'brotherly bonds' or 'attracted to their powers only' you often see in shounens, also they have vox)

What's your favorite character/unit? I just got into es and valkyrie became my instant favorite. Their songs are a banger and i love their dynamic so much.
https://youtu.be/0xdUNS5_JF4?si=YbjNoISibBmB8z9J and https://youtu.be/iu5UOufN4XU?si=br3CyjQKWaGHy1kX is my favorite songs of theirs

Happy new year. What was the last pair you shipped/currently shipping from last year.

Uh.. i know about alien stage though i can't say i'm a fan. But i've seen some interesting reactions from the thai QnA on twt and wanted to know how people here feel about it. Especially the pissed off ones notably with
-vvmeng avoiding any questions about ivantill as a couple despite answering for the other couples (for example https://x.com/atotalhassle/status/1946538388086980840)
-familyzoned
-they're not together even in the AU
-hyuna's death was for luka's character development
A lot of people seem to be pissed off from how ivantill brings the biggest support but gets barely any crumbs. Even saw one who said they already spent like a thousand dollars for ivantill merch and considering leaving the fandom.
