Thanks for the thread vilsisAlso putting vil in the OP instead of skully is a power move
>>541354705>Also putting Vil in the OP instead of skully is a power moveI would never pick an event character over my beautiful queen.
This graph was put together by calculating backwards from May 2025 and would need to be updated every year to remain accurate
>>541353563
>>541357789Twst came out in 2020. Why would they work back from 2025? If anything, the range should be from 1999-2004, and that's presuming that Twisted Wonderland even follows the same calender as us, which it logically shouldn't considering jesus wasn't a thing there.
>>541359218I think it's because it's the current year, anyway it's just increasing or decreasing the year from whatever starting point you want.
>>541359218Nah man then you'll get a bunch of weirdos like "This is PROOF that Deuce is actually 21-years-old in game"Who has time for people with zero reading comprehension.
>>541359218>presuming that Twisted Wonderland even follows the same calender as us,>Yana Toboso: Jamil is the oldest sophmore cause he was born in septemberSounds like the same calendar to me. Hell it's even the same calendar to Americans instead of Japan. How much more catering do people need.
>>5413613543rd year baby Vil
>>541362369>How much more catering do people need.Evidently a bit more for you because any logically thinking person would gleam from the mention of jesus that I was discussing years. Many calendars do not use AD/BC and instead use a different year zero e.g. we are in year 6 of the Reiwa era in the Japanese calendar. As far as I am aware, We do not know the year zero of Twisted Wonderland's calendar, thus we cannot assume that the year in Twisted Wonderland is between 2020-2025, when it could just as easily be 4386 or 890.
>>541364078Oh I get it, you need context. That image is from a tumblr post where someone specifically asked what the calculation would look like if it was the current year.
>>541363513That is so freaking cute. Makes me love Vil even more. Rolling up to the older guys like "Absolutely not."I saw someone say once that they'd thought Sebek would be the oldest first-year but I think his position as the middle child of the first year set is actually perfect. Middle children are loud as fuck, usually, trying to get people to pay attention to them.And Deuce being the baby and Ace being the big brother is on point. Dear god they put so much thought into this.
>>541364561It's cause of those stupid as shit kalimsisters who are dying on the hill of "kalim is older than jamil" cause they can't count for shit.
We died…
>>541365036I see where you're coming from, but I suspect it is actually the Jamil-sisters trying to emphasize his suffering to the point of creating non-canon struggles. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.From what I've seen the common argument is "The only reason Jamil's parents had him is because Kalim needed a personal slave, that is why Jamil is 9 months younger than Kalim, he was born to serve Kalim." The actual timeline and Yana's Twitter disproves this, so they stick their heads in the sand about it.Graphics like >>541357789 are nice to have but they're never going to convince people of things that they don't want to believe are true. Welcome to fandom, I suppose.
>>541366290Don't worry the anime is coming soon!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6K9xUt-EvQ
>>541366290Expected, can probably count the number of posters still here on two hands.
>>541372675We did a role call once and I think there were like 12 of us? But that was before the big 4chan crash. Figures that some gave up after that.
Oh god with the anime coming are we gonna have to migrate to /a/
>>541376494I can't imagine us surviving in /a/. Kuroshit threads were dead as fuck and archived quickly, and that series is far better known.
Who else is excited for the first themed Christmas banner?
>>541376156I miss the tulpa anons
>>541378948I remember Yana tweeted this thing once when the Public School arc came out. Said she was talking to someone and they were like "hey I saw your new anime, yeah, yeah...so, uh...are you just really into Twisted Wonderland these days? Cause this new season seemed really Twst inspired..."And she was like "I am the creator of Twisted Wonderland."Poor lady. I wonder if there are legit people out there who think she's stealing ideas from Twst or vice verse.
>>541367705Reminds me of riddle's sleepwear dropping and en twit/reddit getting flooded with people like "omg the poor bean he was studying until he passed think of how abused you have to be to believe that's normal!!" cause they looked at the groovy and just made up stuff in their heads.And then you read the vignette and it was like no, he went to bed exactly on time. He is buried in books and tired because he knocked them over on accident waking up an hour earlier than usual. Wrong, wrong, all of you are wrong.
>>541381031I would be if it weren't a sequel to last year's event. NBC doesn't interest me at all.
>>541357789Why are Americans obsessed with age?
>>541392764They need to know who they're allowed to shame. Americans love scarlet letters and burning people at the stake. Always have.
>>541393494I hope the image-OP makes it again for 2026 and then the freakiest of the freaks start witch hunting anyone drawing Azul porn before February. And then February 24th they announce that it is okay to sexualize the octopus pixels because he is canonically 18.And then maybe they gain a little self awareness about how batshit insane they are. But I doubt it.
Novel 3YanaYana pls
>>541402573Recently watched a jp youtuber get into twst, buy the manga and the comments are 90% people telling him to get the novels too. The novels are really good huh.
>>541402990I haven't read the english one cause I'm worried it will taint my experience of the Japanese one but yes. Both are really, really good.I'm hoping the lady who wrote them was too busy writing the screenplay to the new kuroshi musical and now that it's done she can get back on track.Jun. Jun pls.
Rereading lilia's dream and legit wish they just let the characters drop in swear words and stuff. "Lord Henrick is after that egg, and he is such an asshole." - Dawn Knight
>>541385490A dance music video based on a couple of Kuroshitsuji characters made by a fan once went viral in the japanese online community and I remember how most of the comments were like 'Huh? The author of this manga is the same person who has created Twisted Wonderland??' I also found out that TW is apparently more famous with the general public than Kuro despite the latter being a much older series.
>>541412736I wonder if it's not so much twst vs. black butler as it is disney vs. black butler. Yana's baby is big for what it is, but it is also niche compared to the big IPs.Child rape and murder and brainwashing and whatnot. It's just never going to go mainstream. Which is fine of course, she wouldn't be writing a story about the organ harvesting of orphans if she wanted to be the next Demon Slayer. I guess Twst is proof of how big black butler could be if she ran all her stories through a Disney-fying filter first. But she'd rather write about gorgeously dressed people dying in horrific ways, and good for her.She has a whole essay out there about how she got tired of walking on eggshells to try and make everybody happy and now has just accepted that some people will always hate her stuff, and that's fine. Based Toboso.
>>541402573It will be announced along with the release of the third season of the anime in 2027.
Thread-bump anon here clocking out after a hard day's work. Let's stay alive people, there are only 25 days left until anime day.
>>541393494Actually, America never burned its witches. Hung a couple and crushed a guy under a door yes, but burning has always been distinctly European
>>541432000Is this guy Sebek's new boyfriend? I'm curious about their dynamic and relationship at the event.
Who here is gonna roll for Scully boy? I'm saving up for OB Azul but I can afford going for him, just hope he shows up before I hit soft pity.
>>541443464Coming Soon! Next month
>>541425823Those weren't Americans. America as a nation didn't exist yet and everyone in the colony at that time would have considered themselves English.
>>541456464Even if it started before America Revolution, people still think it is still Americans because they were still living in said North America continent.
>>541354360underestimated relationship and not much explored by the game's creators
>>541437442It's gonna be a great bait and switch.At the moment ENers are flipping over "otome bait" skully and they're gonna get in there like "he kisses my hand!? this is gonna be all about me!!...he kisses everyone's hands? Oh...kay...he ignores me at the end and falls in love with Sebek while I sit forgotten in a bathtub with a talking cat...?"
kinda surprising we don't know the dub cast yet
>>541475323There is some guy on xitter claiming to be a part of disney+'s dubbing dept and saying that an en trailer is coming in a week or two. That is prolly when we'll know.
>>541475323Do you think they'll already choose voice actors for all the students? That all the characters will have at least one speaking scene in the anime?And I don't know much about English dubbing, almost nothing, but if Chris Hackney were voicing a character, who would you choose?
>>541467973Off screen. Don't forget they're not actually there for the climax because they're irrelevant.
When did we collectively stop mocking and shaming self-inserters anyway? Was it when yomejoshi became popular within japanese fandoms? Or is it a gen z thing because, while they were definitely still around back when millennials were ruling the internet, self-insterers used to be bullied and shooed away when they couldn't manage their autism/cringe or when they were straying too far from their contaminated zones.
>>541484708Self-inserters are still cringe as fuck, making everything about themselves, denying canon to make themselves feel important, me me me, it has to be about me or it isn't fun, everybody has to pay attention to me. The secondhand embarrassment is real.But letting them wallow in their mental illness does a lot more to damage to them than mocking them for it. Being ignored is the one thing they can't stand, after all. Even negative attention is still attention, and they thrive on it.The best way to deal with them them is to pretend that you don't see them. Being reminded that they're not actually the center of the universe is what they hate the most.
>>541497048Cute Azul?
>>541501909Cute tako!
>>541478634what does disney tend to choose anyway? do they grab whoever or do they have a bunch of their own VAs?
>>541508373>>541478634>>541475323I graduated from caring about anime in high school so I am out of touch these days but since when do people actually care about dubbists?
>>541510898People are curious, maybe a little more for twst because the Japanese seiyuus are so iconic to the characters. Who can en possibly get to attempt to replicate them. Is that even possible, there's no way they'll get a deep voice musical theatre singer like Kazuki Kato for example
>>541512319I feel bad for dub-only watchers. The manga is already not as good as the game. The anime isn't gonna be as good as the manga, because animated adaptations are never as good as their source material. It's just how it is.And the subbed version isn't gonna be as good as the original, and the dub is gonna be even worse than that, just because the two languages are so different there is no point in comparing them.The worse version of a worse version of a worse version of a great thing. Whatever they need to get themselves off, I guess.
I give no shit about american VAs, they hire failed actors who do silly voices willing to work for minimum wage who aren't good enough for spongebob, no shit they're not gonna be like Kato or Uchiyama. I bet Ortho is gonna be voiced by a girl.Am more interested in the bonus content. Please god let it be vignettes, please let whatever lowest-bid studio made this project by outsourcing to north korea, please let them have at least a passing familiarity with the game, oh please.
>>541417752Thank you optimism-anon, always appreciate your support.
As long as the en version of the game sticks to using jp voices I don't give a damn about the dub. Never asked for it and will never want it. Not looking forward dub VAs pushing their preferred headcanon since they voice the character and saying ooc yume lines to appeal to their fanbase.
>>541515824Is that something that dub actors are known for doing?The original cast never does that kind of thing, from the interview translations I've read. There are some who are deep into their characters and seem to legitimately enjoy the game like Lilia's and Malleus', and then there are those who are clearly only here for the paycheck, like Idia's and Leona's (no judgement, it is just as job to them and there is nothing wrong with that) but I haven't ever come across Twst-seiyuu-planted yume bait.
>>541517060Idia's va is so funny to me, he's just here for the job but honestly gives one of the best performances of his career and clearly doing extra. Or is this a case of the voice director being really good again, we don't credit the voice director enough
>>541517406Credit also goes to Yana. When he showed up on twst radio he said that he gets a tone of notes from Yana on his scripts telling him what to do, what scenes from the original movie to imitate, etc. Yana herself said that she will gives instructions to the voice director.I had no idea the role of "creative director" included giving directions for vocal performances but apparently it does. Yana is a god. She even helped write the lyrics to the songs iirc.
>>541518712>When he showed up on twst radio By "he" I mean Idia's VA. Yana isn't credited anywhere for giving directions to the seiyuu but both Idia's and Ortho's guys said that she tells them what to do, and Yana said in a tweet that she writes notes to all of them and Idia/Ortho just get a ton more notes than the others. It makes me wonder how much other uncredited work she is doing behind the scenes.
>>541511845>>541512257Shut up you scammy fox
>>541518920I've seen fewer people trying to spread rumors that Yana Toboso isn't involved in the game anymore since those interview translations started going around. Not only is she still involved it kinda sounds like she's in waaay deeper than anybody assumed.
>>541521290I consider myself a Yanafag but if someone had told me "Yana Toboso has the authority to tell the music composer to redo songs when she doesn't like them," I would have doubted them on main.But she does. And not even the music in the game, which I would kind of get, but the dorm songs being used as the ending theme in the anime.I am a failwife of a Yanafag.
>>541518920>>541525184Makes me very happy that Yana is allowed to make these inputs and her team and colleagues are respecting it. I remember she tweeted about Idia's 3 minute explanation video that she just mentioned how nice it'd be if they could use irasutoya for it and wasn't expecting aniplex would approve it. They do seem to try as hard as they can to stay true to Yana's vision, probably why twst is that good in the first place. Hope burgerland Disney never interferes with her
>>541525831Her manga editor from Square Enix is on the Twst team too and I wonder if that has something to do with it. Just like "guys, let her do her thing. Trust me. We all saw the shitshow that was season 1 of Kuroshitsuji. We do not want a repeat of that. Stick to the goddamn script."
>>541521290Reading through that interview she did for the archives guide is insane to me like what do you mean Yana Queen Toboso was drawing backgrounds and props, writing scripts for R card vignettes and shit. Hire an intern for that grunt work stuff. But no, hand-built from the ground up. Damn.
>>541515824anyone who believes anything a voice actor says is canon is a dumbass and should be mocked accordingly and that goes double for dub actors, like guy you were hired for an afternoon of work voicing a character you've never heard of and will forget by next week, stop making stuff up.
Alright night shift keep it going
>>541535319What are the twins talking about with Idia?
Speaking about Idia's dubbing and his music, remind me of this:Ozawa: After hearingUchiyama in Ignihyde’s dorm song I thought, “Ah, this person can really sing.” So when it came to the solo song, I didn’t hold back. I had the mindset of, “He can probably handle this, right?” But since it’s a solo without Ortho or anyone and he had to sing entirely alone I avoided making the melody overly complex.Uchiyama was highly praised by the English-pronunciation coach when he sang “This is Halloween,” to the point that she asked if he was fluent. That’s how good he was. I hadn’t started writing the solo yet, but I had the thought, “I’d likeUchiyama to sing in English someday.” That’s why I packed so much English into the solo song. I kept thinking, “Wow, his English really is good,” and “This sounds so cool,” while working on it.Ichikawa: The idea of Idia being able to speak English just makes sense, doesn’t it? Gamers play a lot of overseas games, and a lot of them don’t get translated. So you have to pick up the language. Idia seems like he’d be good at that.I thought this song would fit a rhythmic really well. There’s a part where it slows down, and then it builds up again. That section feels like a rest break, and then suddenly it goes dadadadadadada! I thought it sounded like a fun rhythmic.Ozawa: I did the lyrics for this one, and since I focused heavily on wordplay I was changing the melody and rhythm bit by bit as I wrote the lyrics. I was told, “Pack in a bunch of complaints about extroverts.” And I was like, “Complaints about extroverts!?”
>>541550436Aozora: Do you have any complaints about extroverts, Ozawa-san?Ozawa: I don’t—I don’t have anything in particular against them. So I was stuck on what kind of angle I should take. But I figured I’d try writing while aligning myself with Idia’s perspective, and suddenly it all just came pouring out, complaint after complaint. It was so bad I ended up laughing at myself.It seems that the kind of people Idia dislikes are those who push their brightness onto others, like over-muscular, meathead types. So I wrote the lyrics with that kind of hot-blooded, pushy personality in mind, with a kind of revulsion toward them.Once I had a draft of the lyrics I had it “Idia-ized” with help from Toboso-sensei. I got tons of suggestions for expressions and ideas, and that’s how it all came together. I never could have written lyrics like this on my own. Toboso-sensei’s word sense is seriously amazing.Ichikawa: There’s even a part with rapping in it, right?Ozawa: Yeah, that was fun. The lyrics just keep going without a break, to the point where it’s really hard to sing in a single breath. There’s almost no place to breathe.During recording,Uchiyama said: “Is this really something a normal human should be able to sing?” He was like, “Uh…this is impossible.”I told him, “Normal humans can’t sing it. Don’t worry.” I sung the rap part myself in the demo and had to break it up into pieces.
>>541515824yana toboso retweeted the english-subbed trailer saying that she’s looking forward to the english dub and can’t wait to compare the differences with the original jp one, just like what the jp disney otaku would do with the jp-dubbed disney moviesi’m probably in the minority group who is looking forward to the english dub. twst is based from an american ip after all. the english voice actors should use that to their advantage.
>>541552930Can you name one recent modern English dubbing/localization in any anime or video game that has been praised being better than the original JP language?
>>541552930Couldn't really imagine giving a shit about the dub, honestly. Not because I hate dubs, I really don't, I just don't see the appeal in it, listening to a character having the same voice for 5 years and then suddenly some dipshit from California is now doing a pretty poor job in comparison.
>>541510898my main concern is how fandom involved they'll be, I don't want them putting their opinion on headcanons
>>541564658Funny
>>541552930I swear to god you people are so naiveOf course she is going to promote the dub anime. That is her job. It is her project. She might even be getting a cut of the profits if it performs well.She could not give a shit about EN. She could actively hate it. The fact that she has given a subtle jab against how they changed the food makes me suspect she might not actually like what they're doing.But she can't say that. She has to be disingenuous because if she is anything less than 200% enthusiastic about everything that Disney does, she is risking her reputation in the industry.If she posts anything less supportive than "the english dub is the most amazing thing in the world," no one is going to want to work with her again.And the more Eners listen to it, the wider the reach, the more it sells, the more money for Disney, the happier her employers are.She posts shit like that exactly because of idiots like you who will go "well yana says it's good and if Yana approves then it must be good."It could be dogshit and Yana will be promoting it like it's the best thing she's ever seen.That is the industry. That is social media. That is marketing. That is one of the reasons they hired her.
>>541584931Turns out I'm not done yet: shit like this is why Eners spread rumors like "even the OG cast said that the dub is good!! so it HAS to be good!"Like no fucking shit. If a voice actor says anything less glowing than "I have performed as this character for the past 5 years of my life and I put a lot of hard work into the animated performance than has been so eagerly anticipated worldwide, but yeah, the guy they hired to record over all of that as if it never happened, he did a good job," then they will be blacklisted. Who is going to hire a voice actor who would dare say anything negative about the decisions made by the parent company of the people who give them money and a steady job?But Eners see a media-trained professional giving cookie-cutter responses in interviews and go "ah yes, the original cast approves of all their work being deleted because foreigners don't want to hear it, and they even said we did well, this proves that it is true," and it's like grow the fuck up.This is a job. Maybe they care, maybe they don't. Maybe the dub wasn't audial poison, but maybe it was. Either way, these are people who know what they need to smile and say to make sure that they keep getting work. It doesn't mean your dubshit is actually any good, and anyone who believes that the original VAs/Yana are posting sincere opinions about their employer's choices to Twitter is an embarrassment to the concept of critical thinking.
>>541488431>>541484708kind of ironic to talk about wallowing in mental illness and cringe whilst on anime imageboard sis can't stop bitching about yumejos unprompted
>>541511845>>541512257keep spreading love you scammy fox
>>541584931I was talking to someone the other day who was wondering why Yana keeps praising the new Sebastian actor in the Emerald Witch musical.Like, darling. Sweetheart. Lovely. If she doesn't say exactly the right things all the time, her livelihood is at risk.She has over 700,000 followers. I wouldn't be surprised if praising every new announcement from Disney headquarters on Twitter is literally written into her contract.
>>541577496If they've gone through proper training, they won't. But Disney is not exactly famous for not cutting corners, and american voice actors know they're bottom-of-the-barrel "talent" and need to do whatever they can to stay relevant. This includes posting whatever might cause a reaction on social media so that people keep talking about them.
Are there any seiyuu-sisters with thoughts on why the industry developed so differently in the two countries?I was looking up Floyd's seiyuu and I learned about "roudokugeki." He does them a lot and they're like, live script readings? Just seiyuu reading from a script in front of people? No blocking, no costumes, they don't even memorize the words and read from the script on stage. It's like Dogville but with less theatrics. People do them for screenplay adaptations of like, novels, but also for anime/video game promotions.I can't imagine anything like that being popular in the US.
>>541599020Can't answer the question but if you're into that kinda thing you can see the Twst boys doing it in the Twst Fes dvd.Also asking dub apologists about that kinda thing will make them real mad real quick.I asked about dub actors doing drama CDs and got hella downvoted on Reddit. "Are you saying that dub actors not doing other media is proof that dub actors are bad??" Nah man you said it, not me, but maybe you're onto something.My own fault for posting in r/anime.
Fuwakororin and Tetekore Dorm Uniform version coming soon. Premium Bandai having Crowley as bonus
>>541550565>>541550436I missed a lot of these interviews, glad that anons here talk about them sometimes, love the info from them thanks for sharing
>>541607380The interviews with the compsor have been fucking treasures.Here is one of my fav bitsAozora: I conferred with Toboso-sensei a lot about the lyrics for this song, about how to put across what is intimidating about Octavinelle in words. Ozawa: She said, “Unsettling.”Aozora: “As unsettling as possible,” she said.and special shoutout to Ruggie's guy being so shy he refused to sing in front of people and closed the curtains in the recording booth so that no one could see him. Best-boy coded.
>>541607380And here is the bit that I bet >>541525184 was going off aboutOzawa: That was the third dorm song that I made. Compared to the rest, I really hit a wall with that one. I started making it in Spring of 2024. I went in kind of a cute direction with it, and Toboso-sensei told me, “No, it’s not like that. I want you to put more playing-card soldier feeling into it, to make it cooler.” So I changed it to adapt to those instructions, turning it into the “Obedience” that it became.
>>541584931Came back after months, but someone update me what food was meant here and what did she not agree with?
>>541615017The meat sandwich. She went to Disneyland in CA and was like "they changed Leona's meat sandwich for EN, but I'm in California and they're available here..."It's not a blatant condemnation of the localization because of course it's not, she absolutely cannot say anything that could possibly be perceived as anything less than a glowing review of anything that EN does. That is her job.Which is why I found that unusually "neutral" comment so interesting. Like an unspoken question of "if they have it in america why...did they need to change it." They systematically removed all of the japanese food from EN outside of new years and I wonder if Yana isn't too happy about it.And it wasn't changed in the tsum tsum x twst collab iirc, says minced meat right there. EN players like "what the fuck I thought the sandwich was supposed to be cheese," and it's like no, but tsum tsum showed a graphic of the sandwich, which was obviously minced meat. They didn't change it to cheese because they couldn't. So it looks like a continuity error to Eners. But it's not.
>>541599020Years ago I was reading a blog by a person who worked for Disneyland and they said there was a hierarchy with Face Characters at the top (Cinderella, Belle, etc) and at the bottom were the Mascot Characters (Mickey Mouse, Goofy, etc). It reminds me a little of the voice acting industry in the US.If you can't cut it as an actor your agent tries to get you work in voice acting. If that doesn't work out, maybe they'll be able to find something for you in dubbing.Voice acting is seen as a backup option, an entry-level, low-tier field that you take because you have to, not because it's what you actually want to do.Meanwhile, in Japan it turns you into a literal celebrity. That means more people want to do it. A wider, more competitive pool of talent. Only the best of the best manage to succeed. That is why they were able to get a guy who performs sold-out, stadium-level solo concerts to voice Ortho.There's just no equivalent in the U.S.
>>541584931>>541586930jokes on you anon, i don’t give a shit about what yana truly thinks of the dub, and i’m well aware that it could just be all a marketing thing. i’m not even an avid dub watcher since they keep butchering the pronunciations of jp words.like i said, i’m part of the minority who is looking forward to hearing the boys in english because i admit, as much as i love the original jp cast, they sound cute yet awkward trying to say english words. i remember seeing a tweet that wataru komada should dub jade and i kinda disagree cause i think he still needs to work on his english since he sounds a little off despite being better than his co-seiyuus. and yeah, i don’t give a shit if the dub will suck or not. all dubs suck anyway so mignt as well enjoy the ride. anyways you’re free to just ignore dub and stick to the jp one, no big deal. if you’re worried about the drama it would bring to the en fandom, that’s on you.
>>541609469Best booooooy hell yeah that's my rugbert
>>541621616So you used ‘Yana is promoting the dub’ as your opening to your main point of "I don't care what Yana thinks?" This kind of dumb flip-flopping is exactly why people get so tired of fandom takes. But you do you man, dumbassery keeps the thread bumped like nothing else.
>>541602143>drama CDsI got a CD with Yuuken's voice actor on it the other day and I think I like him. Had never heard of him before but he did a great job in the story and in the cast talk at the end he actually tried to talk about the characters and the genre and whatnot unlike his costar, who kept trying to talk about himself. Dunno if the other guy just sucked and made him look good by comparison or what, but I'm looking forward to his Yuuken now, for sure.
>>541599020>Are there any seiyuu-sisters with thoughts on why the industry developed so differently in the two countries?Japan's animation industry is a lot larger than America's. So there's a far wider pool of VA talent than in America.>I can't imagine anything like that being popular in the US.They used to have them at conventions, at least.
>>541639541>a lot larger than America'sThat is so odd, it seems like America's should be more expansive. They've got Disney, and all the other kids channels on TV, and even stop-motion animation which almost no one else does. America has so many more people in it, seems like every industry should be larger just to suit that, if nothing else.
>>541641464>They've got Disney, and all the other kids channels on TVAnimation being viewed as mostly a medium for children, is why it's smaller than in Japan, it's considered less respectable. In turn this leads the voice acting industry to be smaller because the only real avenues are for kids shows and video games. This isn't to say that American voice actors are bad, mind you, plenty of them are absolutely the equal to top level seiyuu, it's just that the talent pool is much smaller than Japan. Also a lot of voice actors are regular actors, too.
>>541643017I'm gonna level with you: animation is viewed as a medium for children in Japan, too. The weebs don't like hearing it and I don't mean EVERYthing, obviously Berserk was not for children, but neither is Family Guy.That's why we get wacky censorship when things are changed from manga over to anime. Manga is read by salarymen standing in convenient stores, but cartoons need to be accessible by children. Not only in America. In Japan too.
>>541645096huh, weird image to use an example. that's what I get for trusting the first result on google images.
>>541625909awww anon, don’t get your panties in a twist. I’ll give you a kiss and even bump the thread for you because you’re so smarter than us dumbasses here on 4chan of all places
>>541517406Uchiyama-sis, we got a new lore drop today. Apparently there were new seiyuu interviews published and he says that when he was hired, he didn't actually know anything about Ortho and Idia's relationship. They had those guys go in and audition entirely on vibes, apparently.
twstjp holding my wife hostagegive me the skeleton
What is this? What do you think it will be?
>>541654697Probably something related to the anime? But they already announced what they have in store to celebrate its debut so maybe it's going to be about this year's halloween event.>>541654152His banner is gonna be released in the middle of this month, right?
>>541646153It's funny when I remember that Ace is only less than a month younger than Riddle
Boyfriends
>>541693691Pretty
>>541686798Everybody zooming in on this for the blurry pictures of their boy have been adorable
>>541670836these interviews were kinda weird cause like what do you mean Yuuken's seiyuu made a deal with his actor buddies that if he gets get too haughty the others have an obligation to remind him that he ain't shit. Cater's seiyuu not being able to sleep at night cause of anixety, trey's seiyuu crying when he fails auditions. Wild.
Medium-sized version of Fuwakororins are also coming out. Someone must have really liked Trey's dream section a lot in Book 7 to make this possible.
>>541716587Pre-meditated merchandise
>>541682691Cute
>>541716587I love how Riddle has one unhappy face and then another, slightly-even-unhappier face.
Do you guys believe that the twst boys are white or do you subscribe to the theory that they're inexplicably westernised asians
>>541753137I subscribe to the theory that as they do not exist such debates are held exclusively amongst the mentally ill.
>>541753137That's a pretty stupid discourse but given their names and the sources they've been twisted from, most of them would be white, yes.
>>541738521Cute?
>>541763580Confirmed.
>>541648876I remember the diasomnia gang mentioning something like that too, they knew nothing of the plot and just followed instructions. Devs are so secretive not even the vas know where the plot was going until they have to record for it.Speaking of, I wonder how we're supposed to handle spoilers now with the anime coming and probably netting new fans. Part of twst being so enjoyable is we didn't get spoiled by leaks for all the surprises
>>541771418How do other fandoms handle that? I’ve seen some people branch off into different zones like manga-onlies, anime-onlies, etc., but others where everyone just gets absorbed and if you don’t want spoilers then the game has been on YouTube since 2020, either get real caught up real quick or stay off the fan spaces because no one is catering to you.
>>541731271Cool image of one of the best clubs!
>>541753137Most are white, but Kalim, Jamil, Leona, Jack are not white
Jack Birthday card when?
>>541797646There is a line at the end of book 4 about how jack got tan while skiing and people sometimes use that as proof that he's not supposed to be dark he is just tan as visual shorthand for being outside a lot, just like the savanaclaw mobs.
I wonder if we're gonna get a dvd of the blazing jewel concertlike on the one hand I bet the 3d models are going to look stiff and lifeless and watching them will give me secondhand embarrassmentbut on the other hand I wanna know dammit
>>541635859Funny
>>541797646Jack is from twst scandinavia, he's white
Gump
>>541833613But I think the American voice actor won't be white.
>>541844853who cares
>>541833613He's a cute wolf beast man!
>>541833613I have was always imagined Shaftlands to be their equivalent of North America, with Jack specifically being an indigenous canadian but that's purely my headcanon.
>>541829081This is pretty much guaranteed. I think the website says no recordings allowed for attendees and mentioned only their own camera crew there are allowed to film, why else are they recording if not for Blu-ray release
>>541864562I'm juice brained I meant dvd
>>541833613hes okinawan
>>541871539Sorry jacksisters but it looks bland

>>541879395Jamil's promotion going well
>>541872207I think this batch in general looks bland
>>541871539God I love it when the beastmen open their mouths mm fangs
>>541879608Well, sometimes they alternate between Kalim and Jamil, since they mostly choose the dorm leaders, but other times they choose the Overblots boys, where it's Jamil instead. Which makes me think Scarabia fans tend to have more variety when it comes to official merchandise and materials, but I wonder if some people find it annoying that they're more Kalim or Jamil fans, instead of always having the same character featured, as it's not always the dorm leader! You can even notice how the cover of volume 1 of the Scarabia manga has both Kalim and Jamil, unlike the other volumes 1 of the other mangas.

The English dub cast and trailer will be announced on Monday the 13th.And I admit I'm curious about them having voice actors for all the students. I remember Yana saying that there will probably be new, never-before-seen scenes in the anime, so all the characters will have dubbed scenes.
>>541879395Is there going to be a new event in the Japanese game based on the songs tomorrow?
>>542049609TWST tunes, most likely.
>>542049609>>542053164Announcement says there is going to be a four-part story that is going to be released on the 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th.
>>542057813And do you think it will be a continuation of the Blazing Jewel story? I remember the story of this event, which I think ended without a finale, just the boys practicing the songs and preparing for the show. I wonder how the show was and what happened afterwards.
>>542060029What I think doesn't matter and we're gonna find out in 9 hours anyway. But for the sake of bumping the thread, sure. Maybe since the first Blazing Jewel thing was practice for a live event, this time will be aforementioned live event, with both the Twst players who can't go to the physical show and those who can all enjoying the songs together.
>>542060709Yes, ok
>>542071886Cool
Anybody wanna guess why the anime waited for the manga to come out? Why couldn't they just base it on the game, where all the actual information is? If they wanted Yuuken that badly then fine, put in Yuuken, but the rest of the story could just follow the game, right? I feel like there's something I am missing cause I'm dumb.
>>542084084Visual aid most probably. If they used solely the game, they will have to sift through a lot more text to see what they adapt for the run-time and also storyboard the whole thing from scratch. Manga is better inspo visually as important parts are already picked out and they have a pretty solid visual base to imagine how scenes would look like and expand from there into animation
>>542087172That makes sense. Another question, is manga that comes after anime/video games always weird? Twst's manga isn't super weird, I guess, but stuff like the Sk78 the Infinity manga, the kingdom hearts manga, something always feels off to me. Like you can tell it's not an original thing. Lifeless, I guess?Twst manga kinda has that problem too in my opinion to be honest but that might be because I read it after the game so it reads like they're just going through the motions rather than trying to tell a story.
>>542024778if they get married will rook ever get a job
>>542095305They're both unreasonably rich.
>>542096095I wonder what his family does for a living if it has ties with governments and they have so many houses around the world.
You guys got your Skully bookmark, right?
They're already promoting an original soundtrack for the anime season 1 lets gooo
holy fuck jack
>>542109418Yep, his groovy art is better
>>542109319What where, are we even getting any new songs I thought they'd just reuse game music
>>542119502Original soundtrack my dudes, Twst's music lady has been working overtime. Get that didney money.She posted that the anime does have music from the game but also new, original tracks.
>>542121378Good
>>542121378Oh hell yes, somehow this is what's gotten me most hyped for the anime
>>542139494Cool
>>542167915Cute
>>542180140TWST nui fanarts and photos are so cute.
Everyone shut upYana said she made Skully's card herself. I checked the other halloween guys and Rollo was "Yana and my company" and Fellow was just "My company." This might be the first Halloween character card that Yana did alone.
>>542185215So cards are basically a guaranteeCome home grumpy cat pspsps
>>542121378Isn't she literally the only person who worked on the game who is also working on the anime?Glad they got her at least, but still.
I love seeing all the bouquets for the live, what a neat thing
I wonder if tomorrow and thursday will be short chapters in the jewel event too and then after that a rhythmic reveal or something. I'm not a rhythmic person but if I can listen to Hanae Natsuki sing as I do a thing, I will do the thing.
>>542225494I don't know why I wrote thursday. Meant tomorrow and the next day.
JPsisters don't forget to invite the wolf in your room. My finger slipped and now I have Bloom Ace wandering around and can't kick him out for another 10 hours.
autotranslate turns Yuuken's name into "male sword." Gonna start telling people it's a dick joke.
>>542225494I don't have high hopes but a rhythmic reveal would be perfect, if only to make it make a little more sense when en gets Blazing Jewel. It's kinda awkward without the actual 3d live tie-in
>>542230435Yuuken was a Touken Danshi the whole time...
So what were the general impressions of the jpn fans who went to the concert?
>>542235851Haven't seen anything in-depth yet but lots of crying, generally really loved it. MC changes every showing apparently? I think the afternoon session had Leona. Jp sisters loved seeing how the boys interact with their height differences, saw a bunch Mare-sama DEKAAAII
>>542235851I'm reading all good things but the thing with JP fans is they generally will say good things. No one wants to be the little bitch that complains when everyone is trying to have a good time.Especially cause it sounds like several VAs showed up, too, for like half the cast, as emcees.Now that you mention it I don't remember seeing any bitching about Twst Fest either when people went to that one.
>>542236549I guess if you want to see raw, unfiltered opinons you gotta check on the 2ch threads
>>542237003I went to look and the threads are kinda dead. The most recent twst content is a Kalim-anti thread that hasn't any new posts since september.
>>542237631Huh? Where did you check, most of the twst threads, including the anti-Kalim one and the one for complaining are pretty active, the last posts were from today.
>>542238538I'm in 携帯ゲーキャラ am I looking in the wrong place? Kalim thread 156?
>>542239630https://find.5ch.net/search?q=%E3%83%84%E3%82%A4%E3%82%B9%E3%83%86
>>542239768Thanks, wonder if I got stuck on one of the older pages and forgot where I was or something
The fact that Yana just...shows up. At these events. Just walking around. Vibing. I cannot handle it. Would lose my mind to know I was under the same roof as her.
>>542240182Well the platforms are outdated so it can get confusing to find something specific.
>>542243550Ace with three Deuce!? Lucky?
>>542259061Forgive me for using twitter zoomer lingo but I like how cunty chibi Azul looks.
>>542246184So she was walking around the place and no one recognized her?
>>542283627That's what it looks like. Looks like there's people in the background and everything and she blocked out her fingernail polish so her hands can't be recognized. But maybe the people in the background are just staff, who knows.
Did anyone else love looking at the different character-themed flower stand pics? So many incredible and fun flowers and combinations! And really pretty, right? I wonder which character or group had the most bouquets?
>>542291273welcome to yesterday>>542215880>>542220583
New event when
>>542303965next month...

>>542243550Hot
They could've made bank on Blazing Jewel if they did a paid live stream
>>542331894Do DVDs return better profit? I don't have a DVD player. Or TV. Or a player for discs to go. Had to buy one to watch the Twst Fes DVD on.I guess they don't want pirates ripping the stream and selling it themselves? People are gonna do that with the DVDs anyway, though. Hm.
I enjoy how the US’s promotion for twst is “come to this one bookstore in New York.” I think their marketing budget is maybe $20.
>>542351721Surprised there's even any promotion at all
>>542361784That's very true. I mean it's great but lowkey confusing. I guess they're banking everything on Skully bringing in the cash.
According to jpn fans, Tako's performance during the concert was very sexy and erotic... ugh I'm so envious of them.
>>542373501Japan's love for fish knows no bounds.
>>542377868Japan has taste
Do you think they will release the blazing jewel cards?
>>542410393The chibis are already designed and implemented, the character art for the base cards is already done. I'd say definitely. Probably gonna have groovies of moves from the live event.Wonder if they're just waiting for halloween to end or if we're gonna start getting them even sooner. Maybe after club cards are done? Or maybe a Blazing Jewel mini game will replace Master Chef after reruns finally end?
As a secret twstfag it must be surreal to be in the area around that concert and hear people dropping words like “Octavinelle” and “King’s Roar” and whatnot in casual conversation. Must be what it feels like to be isekai’d into a world where you can say “stupid sexy octopus” and everyone knows exactly what you mean.
>>542426635prolly just like being at a con
>>542426635>stupid sexy octopusYeah from the descriptions people are sending out I think this game is a lot hornier than en is letting on. Or at least the fans are, and the official is taking the opportunity and ruuunning with it.
Today’s the day that guy in xitter said the dub would be revealed. Batten down the hatches.
>>542443850Last chance to predict the vas anons
>>542443850>>542459285Sorry but I barely care about the anime itself, much less about dub. I don't give a fuck about dubs in general outside two exceptions.
that event thing looks so fucking fun damn
Disney Twisted-Wonderland: The Animation - English Dub Trailerhttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7T2mPYn0zPs
>>542475510I don't usually pay attention to dubs in general but it's honestly better than what I was expecting.Not sure about the choice for Trey's VA though.On the one hand, if this was in a vacuum and I'd never heard the JP voice I feel like it'd be perfect, but it's so different from the original that I dunno about it...
>>542475510Man, it fucking sucks. Who could have seen that coming? Me, that's who. I saw that shit being bad a mile off.
>>542475510Why do Ace and Deuce sound so similar, it's like they're being voiced by the same dude.
>>542481389>>542482764Give it time. Just like every stupid thing EN does, it's only a matter of time until the americans gaslight themselves into thinking their shit sandwich is actually delicious.No, not just delicious, it is actually a great improvement on the original, better than anything that any other country could ever hope to do and everyone who disagrees is a commie or whatever.
I wonder if there's gonna be a nightmare christmas x Twst collab cafe next year

>>542488705>>542490552It's times like this I feel a tiiiny bit bad for EN.They translated the PV into English, they forced a bookstore in NY to give away paper bookmarks with Skully on them, the dub is here and kinda weird but whatever and they finally drop what is maybe the game's biggest Halloween event, and JP comes in with fucken Book 8 and a side of BJewel on streaming.Never stood a chance.
>>542490680As long as someone bothers to upload it, sure.
>>542490552I hope the pre-order bonuses are good.
>>542492692True, I'm 100x more excited for Book 8, the Skully card and BJ being on stream than for the english dub.
>>542492692>they forced a bookstore in NY to give away paper bookmarks with Skully on themAnon here believes that EN is holding a bookstore at gunpoint rather than it just being a mutually beneficial if small-scale collaboration
Fucking love this silly game, they sure do love their surprises and keeping things fresh
Why is this octopus so lewd?
>>542506546He's a gay fish.
>>542496449well some anons here are stupid doomers
>>542513430>>542513658The only one I know is Michael Tatum
>>542515838Not Matthew Mercer or Johnny Yong Bosch?
>>542513430Huh, so it is confirmed J. Michael Tatum does Crowley. Ironic since he did voice as Sebastian in the Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji dub. Ben Diskin does Numbuh 1/2 in KND and Joseph Joestar in JJBA Part 2. Kellen Geoff does Funtime Freddy and Glamrock Freddy in FNAF series as well as Diavolo in JJBA Part 5. Alejandro Saab does Yuri in Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Julius in Re:Zero, and Shallot in Dragonball Legends. And of course, AJ Beckles did Okarun from Dandandan who if you haven't heard from drama spaces, supports blackwashing Asian characters.
>>542516987Nope, I'm not familiar with english anime dubbing at all
>>542513658I'm glad all the characters are voiced by men and there are no female voice actors, but is it true that Epel's voice actor is trans? What do you think?
>>542513430>>542513658I recognize some of these names from Genshin. And trey and rook have pretty famous vas.
>>542520042Yeah, Jesse Nowack is trans. If the name rings any bells, originally, she was Jessi Nowack aka Nowacking. Yes, that one for TF2 Hellsing Ultimate Abrdiged as Seras.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZN3gMhDq8U
>>542506546
>>542528370What's his end goal?
>>542520042Well if one of the voice actors is a tranny then they're clearly not all voiced by men are they
>twst has lived long enough that i'll now deal with dubfags toonoooooooooooooooooooo
>>542529606You ready for people saying people should watch Dub instead original JP because Disney IP started in English?
>>542528736He's Malleus's father! Remember that Diasomnia will play an important role in Book 8
>>542513430>>542513658Not that I particularly have a problem with dubbing in principle, but you can really tell it's the dreg work of voice acting. I knew none of these people and quite frankly from sampling a few of their twitter profiles I can see why.
>>542513430>>542513658>Hunter McCoyAlso did Polyester of the Backshot Boys, Twin Tweaks, whatever you call them in the New PSG dub>Zeno RobinsonAce Defective Stupei in P3RE>Aleks LeEmo MC in P3RE and aura farming MC in Solo Leveling>Max Mittelman>Ben Diskins>Crispin FreemanIf you've played your share of dubbed JRPGs you've seen these names>>>JYBJYB>>>Matthew MercerMatthew Mercer. Troy Baker's #1 replacement but also long cemented his own spot in EN dubbing for weeb media>Alejandro Saab>Khoi DaoGot famous from hoyoslop but have had other breakout roles Looking shockingly decent, desu
>>542535962So a bunch of failed actors who couldn't get work doing actual voice acting and are stuck doing the leftover roles nobody else wants, gotcha
>>542534812That's probably the most popular theory about Crowley and yeah, being familar with Yana's writing, I could see that happening. That shady crow is definitely related to Malleus in some shape or form at the very least.
oh my god the EN dubbist of kalim is posting to reddit? are these guys desperate?
>>542513658>>542535962Oh yeah Michael Sinterniklaas too. Fire Emblem, Persona, Tales, can't speak for Final Fantasy but these JRPG franchises are all pretty well known before hoyoslop sweep so /twst/ not recognizing any of them is a /twst/ issue, lol
>>542536828I cant believe the dub casting, something that has no effect on the canon material, is getting more reception than the book 8 trailer (in which it's heavily implied that finally Crowley will get to play a major role) within the EN fandom.
>>542539148Wonder why
>>542539416>EN fans are not familiar with VPNWow, color me shocked>CAPTCHA: GAYKD
>>542539616Anon I am a tourabu fan you do not need to lecture me on the use of VPNs. It's quite as simple as most people in the EN fandom are playing the EN version of the game which has not yet finished book 7 and thus going out of their way to set their VPN to Japan to watch the region locked trailer for book 8 isn't on their list of priorities
>>542542112I wasn't dissing you though, I think it's a bit of both what you said and zoomers (aka a good half of the english fanbase) being a bit tech illiterate seeing how pirating is quite a difficult task for them.
>>542534812>>542536567Sorry Mal won’t be alone in this game https://x.com/amoaimer/status/1977722343276347400?s=46
>>542539148EN VAs are actually acessible to the EN fans and will give them the fanservice they crave.
>>542552810Is a good or bad thing they will do BL audio for us?
>>542553037No no, these are americans. They're going to be explaining how actually their character hates that other character and has probably had a few girlfriends in the past and the shippers are sick in the head.
>>542553037You're more likely to get the EN fanbase pushing LGBT propaganda than proper BL fanservice. At least the male VA's don't seem to be as prone as to delcare x character is trans/binary/etc.
>>542558330Entards have been hit on the guts after Vils VA used he/him pronouns. Talk about le queer or whatever flag they represent, is “misgendering” him.
>>542558306Finally a CD release!
>>542559101I saw that it only has the dorm songs on it, not OB songs.I wonder if they're hoarding those for another 100+ track multi-CD release like last time, or going to make them a part of the original anime soundtrack or something.
Placing my order for the blazing jewel dvd heck yeah
>>542513658>>542537126Oh shit Carter is Dean Venture

>>542513658>Malleus VA is a literal whoYou know what that's fitting. He and Mercer feel like the strangest choices here (on opposite ends of the spectrum)>>542535962>If you've played your share of dubbed JRPGs you've seen these namesHow old does it make me if I remember Crispin from the digimon dubs
>>542579870same here, also Zetta and Alucard
>>542487673They just announced a Twst anime collab.What is this cheap-ass merch, cutting off everyone's arms and legs? I love how you can always tell when Yana isn't involved. The platinum cafes had multiple merch fuckups.

>>542569272vilsis the concert fanart is dropping, must be like christmas for youvilmas
bone daddy took me to soft pity
>>542592096Got Skully at 70 pulls and since I was close to 100, I went all the way to hopefully get a dupe, which I did. The leon mobster was a lot meaner though, I got him through soft pity.
>>542593748Wow we flipped. I got Godfather Leona at 90 and then went 10 more for a dupe at soft. Also got dorm Cater, Dorm Riddle and Dorm Ortho along the way.
>>542594429You had a bit more luck than me, an Idia dupe is the only dorm SSR that I got, which I don't mind per see but I hope I can get dorm Riddle/Azul/at least one Pomefiore student before I reach chapter 6.

Episode of Octavinelle manga volume 3 cover

Xitter retards calling Epel trans now because of the VA
>>542597113Clever
>bday 7/24 >same day as Jacks English VA
>>542597113So he's like a ghost, right? I wonder his reaction of the many OBs going on.
>>542608423Why do they like to apply this retarded logic? I've seen a couple of idiots saying Azul is south american because so is his english VA and I was this close to facepalm irl.

>>542603037You can tell the mangaka is a tweelsfag
Poor Skully
>>542597113What are your thoughts on Skully's vignette? I loved the story! Poor Skully was lonely, everyone thought he was weird and annoying and avoided him. Until he arrived in the book, and even without his memory, how he changed and became much more lively and hopeful! And he dreams of finding people who understand him, and he knows he will find them one day? And I found it really interesting that he became a ghost, is that new information? And that he regained his memories after dying! And he wanted to meet the students and characters again one day. It was interesting. When he remembered the students he knew, in the Sebek part, did it last a few seconds longer? It's quite groovy. Does that mean Skully was observing the characters during the Halloween Event? Pretty sweet, but I hope he can interact with them in the future, right?And it's funny, I saw another Japanese person saying that Skully/Sebek is now like Onishota!?
Yana is curious and confused about the English dubbing, it's funny, she didn't even know the English dubbing was announced, she wants a link and knows who the voice actors are and talks about how things are done differently in America, it's funny
>>542647537Was Yana informed of the dubbing of Kuroshitsuji throughout the years?
Are dub Riddle and Crowley really Bri'ish, I get terrible secondhand embarrassment from listening to bad accents
>>542657608I mean british Riddle has always been a popular headcanon so it's kind of fitting in his case but bird man having a british accent is indeed weird.
>>542659752I never thought it made sense, that people only mentioned the British Riddle, but I always thought that Trey, Ace and Deuce also have to have British accents too!
>>542662958I mean, Alice in Wonderland too is a story made from England too. And in history, England and Japan have a decent history together.
>>542513658Is Kalim the guy that made everyone on Japanese Twitter hate him for being annoying about black Okarun fanart
>>542667069Yep, same guy.
>>542620234What's the joke behind this one?
>>542668752No pets allowed
>>542647537Right before this in Japanese she quoted the guy who announced the dubbers and said "This is official, apparently" Understandable confusion, like why is official cast information being announced via staff private accounts, she must have thought it was fake
>>542662958>>542657608If they had put some effort in the dub, they could have hired VAs with different accents
>>542671603That requires budget. They're not about to actually put any money into an anime dub, or else they would've hired real actors and not dub vas.Even the EN game has shoddy quality control. It's not like this is anything new.
>>542670980Even before that she asked Twit in english what official disney account made the announcement. She legit thought the staff member's private account was fake and couldn't figure out where the official information was.
>>542672675Oh my god the more I look the better it gets. She literally posted "The information shared by the dub senior manager's personal account is apparently official. Sorry for doubting you"
As expected, Skully revived the game
>>542676043Broke the server, too. JPsisters are posting screenshots of a “server is too busy to connect” error like “wow it’s been a while since we got one of these”
>>542671953>>542672675>>542673235Wait is the EN game twitter ignoring the anime? And Disney+ USA? Nothing?
>>542676043It's a combo of Skully, BlaJewel performance+stream announcement, Ch8 and anime hype probably. It got a lot of newbies and players who left coming back, jp is very happy with management at the moment.
>>542687006EN staff are subfags and they hate the dub
>>542689495They could at least promote the sub, then. Or even a generic "this is a new show that will be airing on our streaming service." The silence is bizarre.I'm guessing EN-game account isn't talking about it because it's run by Aniplex USA and Disney is basically a rival in the anime-import department, so they can't.
>>542691407>bizarreAnd yana toboso is just as baffled which is hilarious"thanks for all your character designs and ideas and creating the whole thing, we'll take over from here. Wait, you thought we'd actually promote it? Haha. Know your place."
Got me my skellington husband and all is right with the world
>>542612603Honestly idk. Back then voice actors only used to be someone's voice
>>542612603They would also say that Azul has memory issues because he is the only one who had Rielé written in his dialogue on EN instead of Rielle and he called Ruggie a vice housewarden.They will get a gold medal in mental gymnastics before acknowledging that their version of this series is a fucked up imitation.
someone get me this goddamn bluray dear god was the entire concert just constant fanservice that sounds amazing
>>542711978They're gonna stream one of the performances on D+ soon, maybe someone will rip it
>>542713818They said it's only a section of it that they're gonna show I wonder if it's gonna be one whole performance or like a cut and paste of different parts like a movie trailer.
>>542718725Oh really? The post I read from D+jp said 10/13 evening performance, so I thought it was the whole thing from that slot, my bad if I misunderstood
>>542720247Oh nice, where was that? The only thing I saw was the twst-jp account, my info might have been incomplete
>>542720502>https://x.com/DisneyPlusJP/status/1977706799274074300?t=Irbt1DM_WuR5Brp16v3sjA&s=19 I only saw this one, and found the twst jp post you said right now, damn that's confusing. But maybe they just meant 'one of the performances' instead of 'a part of the performance'? Someone with better jp help?
>>542721203Nah man I think you're right, I think that's what the twst jp thing meant by "one part," cause there are different patterns and the dvds and whatnot are gonna have all the different variations but I'm thinkin that the didneyplus one is gonna have only what was shown the third day.A full show would be amazing there is so much fanart I have seen that I have GOT to see moving
JP version of Manga Up! seems to have updated Chapter 7 of the Scarabia comic. Has anyone read it?
What is all the shit that is happening right now I lost trackanime comingNBCSkully4koma book thingnew scarabia chapterbook 8octavinele manga vol 3did I miss anything
Looking respectfully (lies) at Jamil
>>542724939>>542731982So Manga Up! has already posted chapter 7, which should be the same chapter that will be in the next issue of G Fantasy, right? And in this issue, Scarabia manga will be the only manga from Twisted, right?
>>542734201>Scarabia manga will be the only manga from TwistedAnon I'mma be real with youI have no idea what the fuck you are saying here
>>542734739I was talking about the next issue of G Fantasy, but I forgot to finish writing the sentence
>>542735085Oooh, you mean is there going to be any other Twst content besides the new scara chapter. Sorry, I don't think I've ever seen someone refer to Twst as "Twisted" before and was like wut.Anyway I checked amazon and yeah, only scara is listed there.Also, looking at the mangaka of the other stuff in Gfan, all those guys are from the Twst anthology comics. Square Enix just assigned their usual mangaka extra homework and made them draw twst fanart kek
>>542737201About the anthology comics, there's still a volume 3 missing with the third-year students + Ortho on the cover, right?
>>542741071Nope. It's been 4 years since vol. 2. The general belief is it's never coming. Vol. 2 had fewer artists than vol.1 and even used one of Yana's kuroshi assistants to fill up space. I'm guessing the mangaka did volume 1 and went "this sucks eggs, do thanks," they barely managed to fill vol.2 and vol. 3 was dropped.
>>542742629Besides wanting to see 3rd years on the cover, I prefer 4koma over the anthos. Sad that it's finished. Also curious, is it even worth it to read the manga if you play the game especially in JP? I know the novels are peak, but what's good about the manga besides pictures
>>542731982Hot and cute
>>542761538Can't wait to see what this fucker has in store.
>>542724939I saw someone posting the raw on Twitter but the image quality is not good.
>>542772608Can you post the link?
>>542773445It's easy, just search for Scarabia and select "lasted" and it will appear easily.@hinochkka
>>542774240thanks
>>542743689The manga is different from the game in a lot of ways so if you're up for little variations in the story like deuce wearing a kendo helmet then that's there, and then there are the Yuus, that get kind of shoehorned into it to try and make them relevant. They're not for everyone but some like them.I used to dislike the manga and read it out of spite but the octa arc has some cute points and the artist they got for Scarabia is top tier, it might be the most fun arc of the whole manga in my opinion.
>>542632228Canon!
>There's already drama involving the english VAsSighs
>>542789289Is it Vil's VA and the thing he posted of Vil twerking or the guy who misspelled his own character's name
>>542789792What you said + dumb bitches already sending nsfw twist content to the VAs and asking them to validate their headcanons
>>542792252Xitter is such a hell hole
>>542792252Haha love it. I hope they regret the day they made those fandub demo-reels in a desperate bid to get that disney money.
>>542789792>>542792252Sounds like they got what they deserved. Shouldn’t have been posting to xitter like a bunch of hyperactive teenage boys promoting their high school’s drama club. You reap what you sew.
>>542794340Agreed, seeing some of them attention whoring on twitter and trying to form some kind of parasocial relationship with the fandom when they didn't even knew TWST existed until very recently is extremely embarrassing.
>>542795269Can you imagine them trying to address that? Suddenly trying to pull out the professional actor card like “Please do not contact us via DM with your fanart and theories we have been hired to do a job just like any other job, that is all.”Fuck all of them. Except the ones without sns presence like Leona’s VA. Guy must feel like the only goddamn adult in a room of literal children.Oh god, life imitates art.
>>542797275>>542795269The bigger the whore the more desperate they are for work. Leona’s guy is a Broadway actor, he doesn’t need to pretend to give a shit. Kalim’s guy is a nobody and is posting to Twitter, Reddit, just everywhere in desperation to become more relevant and more employable.
Datamine anon if you’re still alive, is there any minimal hint for the next event?
>>542807569Datamine anon man that is nostalgic
Living for art of Azul molesting the mic stand
>>542845364Wish I was that mic...
>>542853621Waiting for people to complain about creeps sexualizing the octopus only for the concert to drop like “nah man twst is sexualizing the octopus we are just here for the ride. Sexy fish canon.”
>>542845364On the 24th we will be able to see the show, right?
>>542860354That's the word on the timeline, yeahThere seems to be some debate on exactly how much we'll get to see tho>>542718725>>542720247>>542720502>>542721203>>542724725
>>542855956Isn't Azul 18 as of now? There shouldn't be nothing wrong with sexualizing him according to these moronic puritans
>>542866613That's true, he turned 18 at STYX, didn't he. "We're allowed to sexualize the cephalopod cause he reach fuckable age while being held captive by, according to this doujinshi, his own boyfriend. So fuck off."
>>542866804I'm not into IdiAzu but for that storyline I really wish I was. Azul realizing that Leona actually knew more about Idia this entire time. Azul being the only person who expected them all to get through unscathed because Idia would look out for them and being proven very wrong. Chef's kiss.
>>542868570Do you think he felt inadequate after Vil saved Idia
>>542869231Damn you're right. Book 6 was basically the story of their break up, wasn't it. Or the end of what could've been a thing but then Idia blew it up by being himself and now they have joined the ranks of "divorced but never married" with Vil and Leona.
>>542870929Epel always seemed like Leona and Vil's son while they seem like a divorced couple, while Rook is Vil's obedient and obsessed husband and Ruggie is Leona's wife and housewife?
>>542868570I'm an Idiazulfag and I don't mind the lack of relevancy Azul had in book 6 outside his duo shenanigans with Riddle, this pairing seems to get more fanservice during the events than in the main story anyway, guess it has something to do with Yana favoring other pairings involving these two like Malleus/Idia and Azul/Jamil but thankfully I'm also a multishipper that likes these couples as well.
>>542871894I can understand you saying that the game's creators like Azul/Jamil, but I also think they like Jamil/Kalim. In the story of Book 7.5, I had the impression that these two pairs were the only ones who really interacted with each other, with scenes of only two characters and some provocation of the ships. The other characters were only scenes with several characters together in a group and not individual conversations and characters provoking each other, only these two pairs having unique scenes and ships. But did anyone have this impression in 7.5?
>>542877471>these two pairs were the only ones who really interacted with each otherMalleus and Lilia are right there, same magic wavelength, 'your touch heals my pain', a whole heart to heart talk as friends and equals together in a room. I laughed hard when they showed how good a friendship those two have now and then cut straight to Jamil and Kalim's mess
>>542877471I mean, there was also Malleus/Lilia if you don't view them as being platonic but yeah, I get what you're saying and I agree that the canon content seems to favor Jalim/Kalim too. But man, someone from the team really enjoys 2-C because they got some fanservice even during the Blazing Jewels concert.
>>542880120*Jamilsorry snake boy
>>542880120Who's this artist again. I'm just getting back into this series and I really liked their fatass azul scamming men drawing.
