Can you find those comics?

No I'm sorry I genuinely wouldn't know where to look anymore. I think I might have actually seen them in the thread that was made on this forum about the Paper Mario TTYD 'Remaster' but that's only my best guess. What Retarded Weeb said sounds about right though.

I don't believe so... but it has been a while since I even thought of paper mario. Nintendo I think had official comics referencing that Vivian has like 5 o clock shadow and stuff like that so I think the implication in original Japanese is that Vivian is a crossdresser, or was possibly forced to crossdress idk.

I think I know what comic is being talked about since I saw the page posted in a /v/ thread recently. I looked and found it in the archive.

(that "I like guys, not girls" line is kind of wrong, he's saying "there's no men or women when it comes to love", basically a platitude that gender doesn't matter)

Aku is generally treated as a threat in the narrative's grander scope, despite a proportionally small handful of goofy moments. That he was kept off for so long over being made of evil, specifically, is stupid. Does pure water not count as water because it can't be anything else? Any sapient creature has automatic "moral agency" per definition. Magnifico's point is more that someone so controversial most viewers don't even interpret him as a villain, should not be haphazardly slapped with a pure evil beyond redemption label.

Magnifico I am sure is just so stupidly written because Disney spends more time going woke than to write a coherent movie. That sort where they try to portray him as a legitimate threat in the narrative but failed spectacularly in it. It's the presentation that is the problem.

Aku also isn't just kept off for being made of evil, the more concerning points are those goofy moments which are really off-putting like the ones from Him or Big-Jack Horner. This is why they really only voted when the people who would object are gone because they can unaminously vote yes to strike their own ego.

I find funny their comment on the start of how Xenoblade 2 Localization change all biblic references to greek ones.

Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Europe has had a long-standing history of changing religious references in their games, and while the English script of the game is no exception, the changes are unilateral and not necessarily a bad thing.

Lets argument its not a bad thing, but why its a thing? Why change the biblic motiff in a game where the final character got a biblic passage on her chest and is named after the Breath of Life God gave to Adam?

I mean, this is still an era where people airbrush queerbait out of video game dialogue. Translators still seem to be governed by the same old habits, whether because they're paranoid or because the guys funding them are sensitive.

Huh, maybe that's part of the reason Evangelion and Xenogears left a lasting impression on people - they heavily relied on all kinds of Biblical and Gnostic terminology and shorthand in their storytelling rather than just the usual posse of Norse, Celtic and Greco-Roman stuff, and the translation left it mostly as-is.

People like the trappings of Christianity but when you actually start putting the teachings into the dialogue or themes of a story, those same people get all weird. I've seen it before in the Hazbin Hotel fanbase.
 
God the wiki has become insufferable to read lately. The forum fags have leaked into the actual wiki spaces and their attempts at contribution just ruins what could be potentially useful information into just complete fucking gibberish.

Especially the Just For Fun and YMMV pages. I absolutely loathe the existence of these pages because it exists solely as an outlet for a TVT user to air out their disgusting and spineless thoughts about a certain piece of media that they utterly adore. These notes have slowly slipped in the main pages and now the website is filled with this disgusting form of babified TVT newspeak.

If I could pay the Sharty to fuckup the website like 4chan, I would. These nu-TVT fags have destroyed what little credibility the website once had and now there is nothing to replace it with. They have essentially become Fandom/Wikia but for storytelling devices.

On mobile sometimes I am now getting adds that force me to restart the page, since it covers 40% of it, and its not even consistent, it happens from time to time.

TVT posters would actually go postal if they were forced to vacate their website for a day or two. I try to stay away from the RP section of the forums but if there's one thing I do know, it's that those guys are not in touch with reality. I remember a few months back, I was browsing the suspension thread for laughs and I saw a guy demanding to be released from bondage so he can go back to playing with his e-friends. Clearly he's never been put into time out before.

Now imagine a hundred more of those guys being forced to leave the goon cave.

Seriously, fuck anti-ai “artists.” If they're so scared that they can be replaced by a glorified TTS program or a chatbot, then they probably deserve to lose their source of income. Automation is the future after all, so they should've learned to code like those stupid coal miners were told to do.

Late but so true. If your shitty art is so soulless that a robot algo can do better then you should be replaced. Nobody is obligated to pay you 200 dollars for a commission you won't do because of a "mental health crisis" (mom asked for help with chores)

I would love to see that as well, Preferrably not kill them in a single hit but vandalize every single article first with stuff like "TV TROPES ADMINS RAPE TODDLERS."
 
They changed the image for World's Strongest Man from the strongman drawing that's been there for years. I have no idea why they felt the need to do that or what they think the new image conveys that the original didn't.

Can anyone parse this tech mumbo jumbo for me because all those things sound like a nonissue
