I am feeling a bit angry about the Danganronpa English translations... V3's specifically.
really devastating to realize that my belief that “there are some things you can never to do to another person, regardless of who they are and what they’ve done, because they are a person” is held by so few people. they aren’t upset by the unjustifiable, they’re simply unhappy that it happens to the ‘wrong people.’
What do you think the age range of the Hundred Line cast is going to be? I'm nervous that most are minors, and then some have weird scenes X(
this feels a little like a bait question and if it's not, i apologize. regardless, Kodaka's stated he doesn't really do "ages" as he feels they're limiting. we'll probably never know for sure how old they are.
and if you want a random Kuma's take:
they're not minors. to me, they're 18 and in high school, which is a thing a lot of people seem to forget is very much a real possibility in many countries. same with the Dangans. same with some of the younger Rain Code characters.
why? because i'm an old person and it saves my sanity. i don't want a game where a 15 year old falls coochie-out twice in the first three hours (Danganronpa 2). i don't want a game where one of our heroes is an extremely adult man trying to get with high schoolers (Rain Code: Desuhiko being 18 and out of school is not great, but loads better than if he's like, 25). i don't want a game where a minor is openly telling me about, and quite possibly climaxing to, her kinks on screen (V3).
contrary to popular belief, older fandom folk are not automatically predisposed to wanting to see underaged anime boys or whatever. (how about that.) i widely prefer that if Weird Fanservicey Things and other Weird Shit are going to happen to these young folks, then at least they're adults.
people can view these characters how they want, of course. i always say i am not an Arbiter of Fandom. i think if you see them as minors people should respect that, and those who don't see them that way should be respected, too. so in the end you'll have to make your own decision. me, though, i'd rather like to play these games without feeling like i accidentally stepped in on my little sister's strip poker game with her 10th grade buddies. it's uncomfortable otherwise.
AU where Rantaro entered the killing game because the Powers That Be said that they'd help him find his sisters if he did. AU where Rantaro discovers his sisters were all tapped for a killing game together and entering Danganronpa to destroy the Mastermind was his revenge. AU where Rantaro doesn't have sisters, the Flashback Light just scrambled his brain and he's remembering the girls he outlived in the last killing game
there was a great study a few years that went into the whole "ppl online are bigger jerks than irl cuz theres a virtual wall and no repercussions" and the researchers were expecting to see that be the case but it turns out that people who were really angry or argumentative online were also found to just be assholes in person and people who were pretty patient and nice online were found to be patient and nice in real person as well
and it just debunked that whole cynical idea that people will naturally be mean if theres no punishment for it
opinions on a device that would squeeze someone's testicles? it will not be using generative ai to achieve the squeezing.
Well, I'm sure someone would enjoy that. I'm not sure how generative ai even would do squeezing. Also, I think that exists.
ah im glad your day is okay! ^^
