Imagining a western media youtuber who makes the same incredulous exaggerated style of videos people do about Kingdom Hearts or Fate/Stay Night but it's like, comic books and cartoons. Five video long series power ranking everyone from the Boondocks and Rocket Power.

I mean there are a ton of those about poo poo like Marvel/DC comics and shows like Steven Universe or Adventure Time.

That genre is in no way limited to JRPGs.

Yeah this is already a whole genre of videos. Except without the "get a load of this poo poo" face. So many videos that are just summarizing various story arcs/issues with the art flashing on screen without any text in the voice bubbles.

Like remember that Jello Apocalypse idiot who blew up his own professional reputation by poo poo talking a translation he worked on? His youtube bread and butter was making exactly those kinds of videos about mostly western cartoons so you too could learn that Star from Star vs the forces of Evil was actually a terrible bitch and the nice guy love interest was too good for her.

Pretty sure the official channel is basically that now. Which makes sense since their last real content was Korra and that ended in 2014 :v:

Don't forget Star Wars, I've never looked at a Star Wars thing that wasn't the movies but I still know the infamous Expanded Universe insanity from all the posts.

Triclops. Trioculus. Tricolps and Trioculus somehow being two different characters.

Idk. Last I checked, all he did lately was asking about gdq and board games. Surprisingly, his latest tweets are not full of people asking about his blacklisting.

the most illustrative change is when the protag gets a crush on her teacher because he looks like an anime boy she likes. this is not a relationship that is taken remotely seriously and just exists as a way to make the actual love interest realize he does have some interest in the protag, since he gets a little jealous. it is treated as the protag being kind of silly but a pretty harmless thing teenage girls do, because, yeah, getting a crush on a hot teacher is actually pretty normal for teenagers.

quote:

Sub:

Risa: Though it might be easier to just fall for him.

Nobu: Over my dead body: I won’t let you date a guy that cold!

Risa: If only there were a “Continue” option in real life…

Nobu: That may have been poetry to you, but to me it was gamer babble. Scowling only makes ya less appealing!

the characters are just joking, and they're dumb teenagers. again, at no point in the actual narrative is her dating the teacher a serious possibility, they're just discussing it as a fantasy.

quote:

Dub:

Risa: Though maybe I should just go for him.

Nobu: Over my dead body! He’s a teacher!

Risa: I guess… But the teacher route is pretty common in visual novels…

Nobu: Oh cool. But in real life, that’s gross, and those video game boys of yours would go to jail. Pout at me all you want, you know I’m right.

we need nobu to turn into a robot about morality to condemn this high school girl for having a dumb fantasy. #improved
