Why do you have to keep acting like having no principles is a good thing? You do this shit every single time you post...
What connection to principles? Who is he betraying by making a hentai commission that nobody would have known about without people too attached to media raising a stink? It's not in any way comparable to other cases of a person ruining his own series due to being butthurt.

And if you want to argue that the issue is the guy doing NTR, then there is no shortage of way worse shit that famous authors have done.
 
Somebody say NTR?

While I agree with most of your post and thinking on it more it's better to forgive and forget, if you write a story that has nothing to do with NTR and then happily start writing your own in-universe NTR doujins featuring your own characters because someone paid you some money, there's definitely a lack of principles there towards anything except cash and making a quick buck. Audiences don't actually like that because it's dishonest and they can smell it.

Maybe his next work will be alright, but I've seen authors do this before and it never ends well for them. Either you lay all your cards on the table at the start so everyone knows exactly what kind of a person you are, or you have two sets of cards which you keep separate and don't let them mingle with each other, lest you wind up alienating your entire audience. It's customer retention 101.

This is a really naïve take.
 
Nobody mentioned it, but apparenlty Vinland Saga is coming to an end after 20 years of serialization.
I won't be surprised if Einar loses his mind and goes on a killing spree considering what happened, Thorfinn tells him that it's wrong, they start arguing, Thorfinn kills Einar and BOOM the cycle of violence
I expect it to be heavy handed and infantile moralizing. Have ignored the series since tranny Thorkell, decided to thumb through the new one and it reeks of Einar nooooo you were supposed to be a magical pacifist like meeeee!
For those who don't know Vinland Saga eventually gets a character who amounts to a Transvestite version of Thorkell. This isn't hyperbole, it is a Transvestite bastard son of Thorkell, and it's played like an American HR department would give it to you, accept the man in the dress. Shit falls off hard after Thorfinn gives up being a Viking Chieftain.
Series has been shit since the farm and Askeladd died.

On the Oshi No Ko front, second to last chapter, so next week it ends. This one confirmed that Aqua is dead for reals and everyone being very lesad but his sister and the girl that liked him are totally strong and won't spiral because the plot demands it! He wanted a "tragic ending" with stupid amounts of drama and he will go through the pretzeliest of pretzels to get it. also, all according to keikaku girl is still showing everyone how much of a psycho she is.
 
The best part of this chapter was reddit fags sperging out about Kana slapping a corpse, which is just the blackest of comedies at this point.
Yeah, read something of it being very disonorubru when we all know is they are angry that it seems she was really the chosen one and not incest.

I get that you probably think I have no idea what I'm talking about but I've probably been on the internet for longer than you've been alive. I've seen what happens when you throw your fans under the bus for a quick buck too many times to count.

Based.

Vegeta, what's the scouter say about his power level?!

Just because someone's "principals" don't perfectly align with yours doesn't mean they don't have any.
 
Hoo boy, the new Aquarion anime looks insane. Kawamori really overdosed this time. I have no idea whether they're going to pull a Bravern and have some crazy twist or whether this is Panty and Stocking/Watamote-style or whether they're all normal anime characters stuck in an alternate dimension or whether this is just going to be a kids' anime. Also the Vectors are all recolours of the original Vectors, and the new Aquarion is a recolour of the original Aquarion. At least the launch sequences are Eldran-esque!
 
I remember when I tried to whip the people on /a/ and /v/ up into making an RP chat on the day SAO was meant to have been released two years ago. I had a bunch of fun with the RP chats on Ace Attorney case days, and wanted something around to fill the time gap between 2019 and 2026.

It failed because somebody labeled the thread for it a "general". Fucking mods.
 
When the original Abridged ended with the joke of the quit button just being a missing feature I laughed at how it's a funny exaggeration. The state of modern gaming is so bad it can legit happen.
No, the joke was that the game killing people on character death was a bug, and disabling logout was Kayaba having a mental break and preferring to act like a mastermind than answer to criticism.

Hey, if you like the NTR chapter and want to keep following this guy's work then don't let me stop you. Maybe if you pay him enough cash he'll even do something special just for you... as a treat.

I have no idea who this guy is or what his story is about. I just know you're acting like a faggot because your ecchi waifu who isn't real got NTR'd and your only recourse is to bitch about someone else not living up to your principals and trying to flex how long you've been on the internet.
 
I just finished watching Look Back, it was really fucking good. I already loved the one-shot, and this movie felt like the best possible adaption.
I love how it was able to recreate Fujimoto's art-style so perfectly, the big panels were all adapted so well*. They nailed the body-language comedy (something the CSM anime completely failed at), and the emotional scenes were also very well paced and edited. The music was also really good.

I enjoyed seeing all the Fujimoto references, I believe that in the manga the only "reference" is the Chainsaw Man clone, but for this movie they really crammed in a lot.
They were watching Goodbye Eri in the cinema, which I hope it means this studio is planning on adapting it next.

*My only niggle is that the "dancing in the rain" panel, which is my favorite panel in the manga, wasn't adapted 1 to 1.
The scene itself was incredible, but they went with a really animated scene, but I'd have loved to have this particular panel as a still or a slow motion scene.

I was waiting the entire scene for this pose to pop up but it never happened :(
