Dragon Ball Z FighterZ ran out of Raid Bosses so Lythero and his friends fought the 3 Idiots and I was stunned how funny they were off the cuff. I assumed most of it was editing streams down to the highlights.

I haven't watched every single thing he's made so I don't have a great grasp on his work but Patrick H Willems goes over movies and themes and stuff and this one he made 5 years ago about the marvel movies still sits in my head.

Cosmonaut Marcus does the same and reminds me of how frustrating and weirdly restrained the X-Men movies are. They weren't Avatar or anything but at least the Fantastic Four and Ghost Rider movies could commit to having people in the outfits.

didn't we have this convo in the season thread

I'm pretty sure it was still this thread where it happened last time.

I'm lost on what's bringing this conversation on twice all of a sudden though. Are people just now encountering anime with hurricane category devestation level paragraphs explaining who the new guy is and how he could be a threat after the last guy had a shotgun in his arm and being utterly lost in what's happening? Used to more natural explanations on why someone's Bad News like they're a serial murderer or just rumors around town of them putting 8 guys in the hospital with all of their testicles obliterated?

Did Videl ever learn how to blow up a planet like everyone else except for Yamcha and Chiaotzu?

Aurora posted:

yamcha most certainly can blow up planets. chiaotzu probably can't?

videl never really learned ki attacks and wasn't able to beat up spopovich so i'm going to say she can't blow up planets

I didn't watch Super so if they ever decided to have Videl back as a character and do training, I'd have no idea. I saw the Ultra Instinct clips, and that was it.

most of it for me in JoJo is the characters. the Character designs for baki are just ... bad? like the other end of the ridiculous body proportions/anatomy spectrum from jojo, where both are ridiculous but one is kind of hideous and the other is just goofy and weird

I have that problem trying to read it compared to something boring and safe like Kengan Ashura or Record of Ragnarok. It's too exaggerated, makes me uncomfortable to look at it.

waypoint published a decent amount of fanfic as some sort of Exploration of Fandom or w/e, but I'm pretty sure all of it was wacky crossover pileup stuff, which is the most stereotypical image of fanfiction you could possibly project and is pretty indicative of their whole attitude as far I was aware.

Being genuinely sincere here, what would've been better examples of fanfiction to post instead?

one that isnt softcore fetish pornography? stuff that was sincerely written instead of written for the purpose of making waypoint seem Quirky?

Well yes, if you want anyone to write off anything just show that people are writing/drawing/voice acting/animating porn about it. I was just asking what would be a good example of fanart since 'wacky crossover stuff' isn't it.

Like, is it just making everyone a dad and seriously trying to imagine how Alucard, Trevor and Sypha would handle raising a baby or just doing a Mandalorian? Another Superman deconstruction for every possible superhero ever? I'm not someone that reads fanfiction so I don't know what actual quality looks like.

i

i mean that stuff exists but no that isnt what fanfiction is at all. im also not saying porn fanfic existing is bad, just that you shouldnt put it on your mainstream gaming site with no warning.

fanfiction is like, anything. there's stuff that's just a single romantic scene or series of events between a couple characters, there's stuff that's alternate retellings of the source material with different circumstances (what if this character died, what if this character's evil plan succeeded, what if two characters swapped places), etc. Comedy or over the top crossover stuff exists but it is a fairly small minority of the content that exists. Most of it's like, just sincere explorations of one singular source material and its characters and setting. Fanfic is useful because it lets you A) skip past stuff like character setup or worldbuilding and just get to the stuff you want to do, B) have an audience that comes in with extremely obvious expectations that you can either play with or lean into, and C) guarantees you at least some audience.

Plus obviously if you like something there's a desire to explore it in various ways.

Okay if I'm getting the concept of fanfiction explained to me then I spectacularly failed to explain my point. I think- not that I know for sure- that if you're going to talk about fanfiction in a way that shows that you don't care you'd pick the porn as a cheap way to point and laugh at it.

Like even though the internet was flooded with people being egregiously horny over Lady Dimitrescu I don't think a majority of people would be self aware enough to remember that if they read the phrase 'Resident Evil porn' on a newsite.

Touhou doujins.

Hey, now that's an example I can sink my teeth into! I never got into bullet hells myself but I know vaguely enough about how vast the library of fan material is to know that people are making levels, music and stories on that franchise. Not to mention the games in entirely different genres too.

Because I still think of Fanfiction.net instead of Ao3 I keep thinking of fanfiction as just written stories instead of manga and music and all of the other stuff I should include.

another reason why jump force sucks is because it doesn't have any gag characters (arale, gintoki, bobobo, luckyman) and no kinnikuman. like for some reason they thought that jump force had to be 100% serious and no fun allowed

And if the Alpharad video of playing the game is accurate, it's mostly just One Piece with a smattering of other characters having stuff going on.

How you create a game with, Freiza, Light Yagami and DIO as major characters that could acquire the Dragonballs and still have an original villain that everyone's teaming up to fight.
