>>4057120>>4057121>>4057122>>4057123I Have tried to get into this game, but i am not sure it is for me. The MC is cute tho.>>4057130Game is called Clash of Critters.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul2W6MLCuo0
>>4057134>cute shota only appears in that trailer>the acrual game is just a shitty autobattler for phonesSad.
>>4057135This is very true anon lol "the actual game is just a shitty autobattler for phones"not the cute anime sho in the trailers but i do see his sprite walking around. I legit played 10~min of this game and gave up, it needs more in game cute sho cutsince's b4 i give it another shot.
>>4057136i mean i lasted all of persona 5 on the pure yaoi of akechi and the morgana and shinya. maybe i should really expect more from my games in terms of fan service.has anyone ever told you you sound like google gemini?
The only type of pussy I like to see near a shota
>>4057138wasn't trying to knock u anon. I truly haven't played the game long enough to know if there is more too it. Lol i cant spell/grammar to save my life, far from AI my friend.
>>4057141sry i was nta, i was more blogging too, just yapping like an unc. fren…
>>4057135>>4057136I dont know what would you expect from a mobile game? Of course it is going to be shit. Even Genshin is incredibly shit and disappointing as a game and only good thing to ever come from it is trailers and art.
>>4057107brat
>>4057136I hope Roco Kingdom World gets a global release soon so I can play as a sho and wander freely capturing not-pokemon.
>>4057153pretty cute nice find anon.
>>4057158I have been following for a while. The game is like Genshin x Pokemon. You play as a shota (or loli) whose appearance can be customized and wander in an open world capturing Temu pokemon and engaging in turn-based battles against them and other travelers. The monsters are average at best, leaning too much on the cute blob side, but they are better than Gamefreak's modern designs at least.
>>4057139Based
>>4057160kill it, but not with fire, fire is cruel, and cruelty isn't warranted for the disabled. He didn't choose to be this way, and he isn't that way on purpose, he just got unlucky.
>>4057159Actually, it looks like it might be kind of fun. Hope it expands beyond China so that we can get it to try it.
>>4057161Only one appropriate method and that is with my cock

>>4057145If only Genshin would diversify their target audience to anything other than straight dudes we could have had way more shota Durin pandering because he's perfect for that. Petting his fluffy hair and draconic features, bringing him fresh meat..He's a handsome young boy but he'd be cuter as a shota.

>>4057212I wish I could like this show
The episode where they went to the aquarium was pure kino
>>4057213>>4057214
>>4057214That's great but I couldn't get past the very first episode. The writing just felt so...off, I suspect it was written by a woman. That wasn't what growing up a fag was like at all
>>4057213I like it a lot. Now I just wish someone would make Nakamura, but shotas.>>4057214That was my favorite one. The ending of that episode got me good.
>>4057217Maybe I'll try it again if it has an english dub so I don't have to read it while trying to ignore the parts that I don't like
>>4057216It is, but it's not like men are making anything like it. Sure reality is 10x worse at best, and i wasn't attractive like he is. Sure it's pure pain trying to conceal your feelings, people figure it out anyway and try to destroy you, and then you realize trying to hide it was pointless because life is all bullshit and you were ngmi anyway, but i enjoy the anime regardless.>>4057217>>4057220<3
>>4057219It does
>>4057221wow anon, you and I had very different experiences by the sounds of things, I found out about myself in 6th grade when I developed feelings for another boy in 6th grade and I was so obvious about it without meaning to that people in class called me gay and even knew who I liked without me telling them, but the strange thing about it was the way they were doing it wasn't mean at all, like "yeah bro, we know, don't worry about it"
>>4057223I'm really glad it went that way for you
>>4057222I tried again, even without having to read it I just can't watch it, it's so insufferable.
>>4057225if you don't mind me asking, when and where did you go to school that you had such a hostile experience?
>>4057223My experience was somewhat similar too but in Highschool, everyone somehow figured out i was gay but literally no one cared, the most i got was lighthearted friendly banter.
>>4057221>>4057223>tfw got called gay for liking anime and power rangers in middle school, and they meant gay=loser>liked girls and didn't even think I was gay until I saw a big dick in a gym shower when I was like 19It's crazy how varied our experiences were.
>>4057212ok now thats just incredibly sweet.
>>4057210I mean, he is supposed to be shota. Mihoyo is just too lazy to make actual shota models because that would cost more money.
>>4057180>that gameplayI am already disappointed
>>4057235The case with Genshin is really shota-erasure.JP Wikipedia cites Genshin as an example of a shota-game and lists almost every character with the boy model as examples of shotas. Xingqiu's design even incorporates the shorts/garter-sock combination which is the shotacon equivalent of to the lolita dress. The boy model, relative to the man model, is definitely also shota-height.Genshin also has a global audience largely composed of people who would rather die then admit they find shota attractive so the terms 'twink' and 'femboy' were used and enforced instead (despite being foreign terms). The existence of the Klee-model gives these people plausible deniability even though Klee is really ~1/2 the size of the typical loli character.
>>4057249That is wrong, though; term twink far precedes the existence of Genshin or the modern internet. >JP Wikipedia cites Genshin as an example of a shota-game and lists almost every character with the boy model as examples of shotas. Xingqiu's design even incorporates the shorts/garter-sock combination which is the shotacon equivalent of to the lolita dress.The boy model, relative to the man model, is definitely also shota-height.How is that erasure? If anything is being erased in the modern world, then it is the term Twunk.
I would kiss emizel
>>4057250Twink does precede Genshin and modern Internet, it comes from American gay culture; which is distinct from Genshin's context and target audience. 'Shota' would be a term Genshin's character designers would be aware of but 'twink' would not.The erasure happens on the side of the global English-speaking (and not the Japanese) audience. The EN audience uses shame and moderation to police use of 'shota' and claims that there are no shotas in Genshin Impact (only 'femboys' and 'twinks').
>>4057255>Shota' would be a term Genshin's character designers would be aware of but 'twink' would not.I will never understand this sentiment. Do you really think cultures exist in vacuum? This is nothing stopping Chinese from knowing what a twink is. Aniki was a big and famous person in Japan. And TNO is a famous mod in China and has strong Chinese community, is also admittedly solely kept alive by the chinese modding. Not to mention there are bunch of chiense indie games that feature twinks. One for example came just this week. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3270550/FCWCLF/> The EN audience uses shame and moderation to police use of 'shota' and claims that there are no shotas in Genshin Impact (only 'femboys' and 'twinks').Mihoyo literally doesnt care for EN audience besides milking them for their money.What they do care about is cutting cost, which they are quite famous for, and more importantly CCP policies which is the main reason for the ambiguity because they know very well that as a big company they are being watched and openly pushing shotas could be used against them.
>>4057256What I meant was awareness as in: 'we are making a product for otaku'. When HYV's character designers invoke shota archetypes it's more likely they are actively thinking (aware) along the lines of 'shota' then 'twink' (a more foreign word and not directly relevant to their target audience). It's also possible that the artists would not know the word though.I'm not sure why you're mentioning that HYV doesn't care about the EN audience; I was talking about the behaviour of the EN audience, not of HYV.
>>4057261First off, what the fuck is HYV? I am always lost when people come at me with arbitrary shorts like this. >character designers invoke shota archetypes it's more likely they are actively thinking (aware) along the lines of 'shota' then 'twink'If we talk Genshin then the designers are absolutelly aware of both terms. Because you have characters like Chongyun or Xiao or Xingqiu who are definitely shotas in aesthetic and on other hand you have characters like Aether, Tignari or Kazuha or Haizou who are twinks. And then you have characters liek Venti or Scaramouche who are more ambigious and could be both shota or twink in aesthetic.
>>4057263HYV is short for Hoyoverse.The characters you listed as non-shotas were all given as example of shotas on Japanese Wikipedia (until the most recent edit), which is the effective erasure on EN side I am talking about.With Heizou particularly, he's likely an allusion to Ranpo's Boy Detectives which were integral to the development of shotacon.
>>4057265It really feels like you desperately want to feel like a victim, which is a typical EN audience trait.Unless, you can provide a proof that EN audience pressured JP wikipedia into something and it wasn't their own perception on what the characters are then I really dont care. Heizou always felt like a twink to me. I am slav btw.
Your pov
>>4057267Hei is so lucky
Boi
>>4057266people are being retarded ITT. how is it a revelation that Heizou is a twink? are we talking to someone using a brail keyboard?
>>4057270It is especially weird to talk about shota erasure when we are getting more shota anime and games in recent years.
>>4057266The JP article (for 'shota') was recently edited to remove superfluous sections. I never said anything about EN pressure on JP Wikipedia.The mainstream EN-speaking Genshin fanbase is strongly averse to shotacon and this has led to some misconceptions on the EN side; I am not sure what the point of arguing against this is and will let this be my last reply.
>>4057272You see, anon. I can't believe I have to explain this. But when you are discussing something. You bring up things and points that are connected together. You were talking both about how EN audience is trying to erase shota terminology in favour of terms like twink or femboys. And about how JP changed the shota wiki page for Genshin.Stop shifting goalposts now.
>>4057273I see that this was a syntax problem.I don't know whether you are Nobimaru-anon and I don't want to continue arguing either.For clarity only, when I referred to the Wikipedia article in parentheses this was to clarify that my source had recently been edited. When I said 'which is the effective erasure' I was referring to how the EN audience accepts far fewer characters as shotas then the JP audience did, and not to fact that the Wikipedia article had been edited. I have not added anything to what was said in: >>4057249 but have only tried to clarify.
>>4057274Please, anon, stop embarrassing yourself with this kind of goal shifting. I can't take it anymore. I will probably have to use slurs if you continue. What is even your point then? I will not even go into how many shota characters are and have been popular across EN side of the anime fandoms over the years.
>>4057180I wish they would go a different route alas it's probably too late now.
Can you guys shut up already?
Sho will fight all of you for being cringe!
>>4057278>>4057279People really can't understand the concept of discussion. I really hate the modern internet.
>>4057279I'm truly sorry.
If anything, a new Japanese name needs to be picked over Shota. Doesn't that word get flagged on Google now?
>>4057288whenever I talk to gemini I use "shounen-con" and "can you recommend anime with shounen in it?" "is being a shounen lover illegal in 'country'?" it works. if I use shota gemini will scream at me TOS!
>>4057290>imagine allowing a corpo and its demonic puppet to change terms you´ve been using for decadesI really am the last one who is willing to stand up for his ideals
>>4057288And get that new term banned? The word isn't the problem. The very concept is embodies is what is forbidden. No amount to shift terminology can undo that. Better to ignore the corporate entities that vie for total control by embracing the underground nature of the interest than to kowtow to their arbitrary blacklist.
>>4057291>render unto caesar what is caesar's(Matthew 22:21, Mark 12:17, and Luke 20:25)>picrelcan't find anyWhat I mean by the quote is that I have a basis to uphold dictum I don't agree with, in public. I will continue what I think is fine (appreciating shotas), while not committing any crimes. Once the Roman government outlawed worship of Christ, Christian's would share the imagine of Jesus with an Ichthus; this shifting/analog was fine for them, it should be fine for us too. if you really wanna pretend that corpos/woke ppl are persecuting shotacons, then why is the cloak and dagger wrong?>>4057293does that mean when they introduce new restriction we will just completely stop talking about it? 4chan is the underground, and it is clearly moments away from destruction. We really ought to tend to different words, while expressing the same thing.Why do I sound so jewish... guys by underground, just no one actually go underground! that'll be reptilian, ahh!
>>4057294>What I mean by the quote is that I have a basis to uphold dictum I don't agree with, in public. I will continue what I think is fine (appreciating shotas), while not committing any crimes.Because there is no crime committed from the beginning. >comparing yourself to a jewish sect that kept and keeps ruining the worldNice try glowfag
To the original point about Genshin, I would say they are avoiding overt shota pandering. There are some, but not all, eastern companies that avoid or minimize depictions of shotas (and lolis) in an effort to pander to what they believe are western sensibilities. Capcom removing them from DD2 last minute is an obvious example. And that's a Japanese company, where there are obviously plenty of other companies that have no problem with it. China's situation is very different when it comes to homo. But there would be no reason for them to natively take issue with shotas. That's not even a real thing in the west outside of a vocal minority. And they have things like the Legend of Hei and that other gacha with the shota healer showing that there is no CCP policy against shotas. The talk about western terminology is odd. The Chinese have had their own version of the bishounen aesthetic, likely with its own name in Chinese, since antiquity. The pretty boys in Chinese media are based on that aesthetic, not western neo-puritans inappropriately calling normal looking boys in their early teens "twinks" and "femboys" in an effort to pretend that attraction towards them is an attraction towards femininity rather than youth. The Chinese know some westerners freak out if they see children and some of them choose to accommodate that. But they didn't need to learn about pretty boys from a culture that has been suppressing them for centuries.
>>4057288The attempt by megacorps to censor the word shota is incredibly retarded and happened far too late to work. The word shota has already undergone substantial transformation from its original meaning and context as it entered English. English speaking weebs use it to describe all anime boys younger than their mid teens, with or without erotic implications.And the vehicle that is being used to try and censor it is also being used to censor everything else, which has destroyed its legitimacy and its capacity to inflict any sort of meaningful chilling effect. You can't even speak normal, human English if you abide by bot speak. So there's no incentive to specifically cut out the word shota.
>>4057235ridiculous gacha designs like whatever is going on in genshit will never have any appeal. they're so loaded with a billion tiny superfluous details they detract entirely from what should actually be the center of focus. they are also devoid of any eroticism. they're basically the antithesis of a platonically ideal character like link. throw them all in the garbage.
>>4057301Agreed 100%. I have never seen a gachashit design i genuinely liked. If there was a gacha that had god tier shota designs like Link or Gon and Killua I'd be a gachafag.
>>4057307all gachashit is inherently soulless, none of it could ever match up to link
>>4057308I want to playfully nibble on his pointy ears!
>>4057301I think maximalism can be nice sometimes. But it needs to be a conscious surrender to decadence. The problem with gachashit is that it has become a mindless standard, ignorant of context.
