Since Everyone Seems To Be Talking About The Gba Faithful Thing I Want To Take A Minute To Share A Hot

Since everyone seems to be talking about the gba faithful thing I want to take a minute to share a hot take I've been thinking about for a while now

Gba among other VAs (including scythe audio who I'm gonna talk about to cos I think he's very important to this conversation) aren't actually "asmr boyfriend vas" their creative people working with a budget

There's something that sets both these creators apart from the typical "asmr rp boyfriend va" and it's the fact that they both clearly would rather their work be a series, a comic, a book or even a movie but their working with a budget so they use a fairly cheep medium: youtube asmr rp

When you listen to gba or scythe your not listening to "asmr rp boyfriend #comfort #sleep aid #hot british" your listening to a story with real narrative and real talent

I bring up scythe because he's expressed multiple times his resentment for typical asmr bf rp audios which is valid because they get more views despite the "lack of talent" also because he's faced similar criticism for the villan series

However with gba it's harder to notice but it's very clear that he's jumping through hoops to try and please the audience that sees "asmr bf #british #enemies to lovers" and clicks because of that instead of the actually genius story writing

While I do think it's kinda dishonest to put those things in your video thumbnail in order to attract a bigger audience I don't in any way condem gba for doing that and he made a smart move making the "albus ending" and "devlin ending" for all the "romance starved" fans but to somone like me who recognises that the romantic aspect of a lot of his story's are only their for viewers sake the albus ending felt very dishonest to what gba actually wanted and felt very pander-y which again I don't condem him for cos if he hadn't made the albus ending yall would have pissed and moaned about it!

And lastly to say that gba "can't write romance" is blatantly dishonest. He has said before that he dosnt like doing it as much but the people that say that he straight up "can't" are clearly just pissy about the whole faithful thing. Like did yall just collectively forget about space pirates?

I think it’d be interesting if cheeky somehow got into a mini coma or got really hurt to the point of being our for a few days and V pulls the “it’s supposed to be me in the hospital, not you”

the audio rp fandom has a massive issue with favouritism + double standards.

like if your not “popular enough” or joined a fandom late you have no chance of getting any recognition

and that pisses me off bcuz this fucking fandom is really talented

Cheeky will only lay on the left side of V so she can hear his heartbeat.

If she holds his hand, she makes sure she can feel his pulse point.

It’s not intentional

She just wants to make sure he’s alive.

I am a grown ass adult and I still get nausea when I feel like I'm in trouble. They're gonna send me to the principals office and take away my toys for a week. Can you just fucking kill me instead of making me stew in my fucking anxiety

The misuse of the M4A tag is a huge issue within the ASMR community, but the one that mainly comes to my mind, is scythe audio. Now before I continue, two things: one, this is my opinion; two, this is out of the people that I watch; I'm sure there are hundreds, if not thousands, of people who do it a thousand times worse than he does. I don't want any kind of hate pushed towards him; he's an amazing VA, and despite this, I do enjoy his content. I just wish he didn't misuse the M4A tag. With that done, I will continue. From what I've watched of his content, the worst example of this is in his series: Beyond the Stars. because even though all of the different points of view have been tagged as m4a. (except for one, which is tagged M4f). Despite being tagged as m4a, they clearly aren't. If you look at the designs of the characters that are supposed to represent the listener, they are clearly extremely feminine and meant to look as such, and the writing that is used to describe the listeners as well within the content itself also shows that it's not exactly meant for listeners that aren't female. If it was just stated as such, just straight-up tagged as M4F, I wouldn't care; if he's not comfortable voicing and/or writing for non-female listeners, that's fine. it's his channel; he can post what he wishes. not my gripe at all. I just wish, as I said before, he didn't misuse the m4a tag. because if you look at other VAs with truly M4A content, and you look at his "M4A" content, there is an obvious difference. the only series of his that I have seen that doesn't have this issue. is where the listener is a literal cat—it's kind of hard to gender that. Like I said, I don't want any hate towards him; I do genuinely enjoy his content. I just wish he didn't misuse it, as I said. (sorry if I'm repeating myself, and sorry this is long.)
