New thread. Yana.Where is the third novel Yana.Yana pls.
Azul and Jade really are paired up a lot. Tsumsted, Halloween, then another Halloween. No complaints but would love more Azul and Floyd content, they were so good in the Stitch event.
Aw I don't think the sketches on the table are concept art after all, I think they're just line arts for the card art in the middle. Damn.
Ya'll see yana's tweet about going to a planning meeting for the anni and everyone wanted to design the cat's pajamas? It's cute to think that the developers are actually having a good time.
Unlike the previous videos, where I thought Malleus and Deuce were talking to Yuu, in Ruggie's video, he was definitely talking to Leona, right?https://x.com/twst_jp/status/2031233608485319077
>>559882931Those are just clips from the game. If you can recognize the scene you can tell who they're talking to. Malleus is talking to the prefect in Book 3 about resting after getting their dorm back. Deuce is talking to the group of Ace, Grim and the prefect in Book 2 about how they have the important job of stopping Ruggie from whatever it is that he's gonna do. Ruggie is also in Book 2, asking Leona if he slept all morning and telling him that his attendance grade is going to drop again. It's right before he gives Leona his sandwich.
>>559882931>>559883516 samefagMy bad Malleus isn't book 3 he is book 7, I found the line
>>559882931Here is Deuce's line
>>559883516Ruggie's line
>>559883885>>559884024>>559884157I guess the marketing team wasn't given a lot to work with. "Happy 6th anniversary, you're going to fail your classes."
Opinions? The scarabia manga Yuuna's nickname localizations:Grim -> Gririm(original) -> Grimlin(EN)Ace -> Acen -> AcesDeuce -> Deucen -> DeucesCater -> Katie -> Cay-DTrey -> Tre-pai (from senpai) -> T-CloKalim -> Kalipyo -> Kalimbro
By the way, the new chapter of the Scarabia manga was released today.
>>559898659Any leaks so far?
https://x.com/roidual/status/2031368052110197038?s=46
Don't forget that this month is the birthday of one of the best good boys!
>>559889251Fun fact I just checked and they kept in Kalim saying that he has 30 siblings. I was 100% convinced that they'd take that out like they did in the game.
>>559900187The scanlation has been on mangadex for over a year. Or are you looking for someone to upload the official version?
He's a big guy
>>559941046I hope Silver will age more gracefully and won't be as round.
>>559944057He should be fine as long as he stays out of Trey's dreams kek
>>559909115His va was so cute on the livestream. He never got to be in any of the anni livestreams before so before he’d like, send in a letter, and have another seiyuu read it during the stream. But this time he got to actually participate and he was like “I am here!! Not a letter!! SEBEK HAPPY BIRTHDAY” it was adorable.
>>559963601Close enough, welcome back Alois
>>559889251Surprised that I haven’t seen anyone accusing “kalimbro” of being racistAlso hot take Yuuna isn’t POC she and her mom are just tan from working outside all the time on the farm. Tans are always used in anime as shorthand for “character who is outside a lot.”
>>559900187Haven't seen any yet, everyone is still chattering about RSA and all the people who do leaks have lost interest in Scarabia apparently
I could watch 900 hours of just Azul and Jamil being catty bitches to each other
>>559977247Found itfacebook dot com share 1Bxc9Ri6w3
>>559982046You're a star anon. Their obnoxious watermark means we can't use it on mangadex but I'll get started on translation for when we get some clean pages.
When was the last time twst received these many likes…
>>559988263When they revealed Skully I think? Not sure.
I know ya'll like pretending that other platforms don't exist but on the subreddit someone made a "would you play the game if the characters were all women?" thread and when all the responses were "hell no" they downvoted everyone and deleted it. I laugh.
>>559989771No he only got over 100k
>>559988263I saw that they went to the top of the chart for most popular app but didn't they also scoot way way up in revenue on the first day of the anni? I saw jpsisters sharing screenshots like three days in a row but forgot to save any.
Scanlation done, awaiting upload.And I think we see Kalim fall a lil bit in love with Azul.
>>559997442You sent me the wrong files anon.
>>559998046Goddammit, every time. I'm sorry, resending
Resent. I'll stay up until they're safe and uploaded, just in case I did another silly thing.
>>559998362Here you go, the chapter uploaded. Enjoy!https://mangadex.org/chapter/8b98b35e-f559-46ef-8ef1-4377d81b95a3
>>559998821You're a saint turtle, thank you so much. Sleep time.
>>559998821Ty based anon
>>559993123I got one https://x.com/aogiyuki/status/2031203025604456496?s=46
>>559998821Thaks!
>>559988263not surprising that jp is going crazy over rsa, they love disney princesses over there and rsa has always had oc designs being made of them for years
>>560006493I wonder which RSA is going to be the most popular in JapanI can already see them going gaga over Alice and Meg
>>560008478My bet will be Jasmine, Rielle and Alice
>>560008478Rielle because he'll be associated with the fish mafia and Alice because jp loves Alice in wonderland
>>559997442Me too Kalim. I am also falling in love every time I see Azul. Thanks for the translation again. I'm the one who gave the raws
>>559998821Will the next chapter already have the Overblot?
>>560029562What's with sand people and fishes being attracted to each other in twstverse?
>>560036445Seems likely. Maybe overblot and blasting into the desert.
>>560036529Dry/wet dynamic?I don't know but I also know besides shipping Azul with Jamil and Kalim I also ship him with Leona because I love the ragebait dynamic
>>560038528>Dry/wet dynamic?That's cute cause the reason Azul gives for not wanting to pair up with Leona in book 6 is that Leona's dryness magic wouldn't be good for a mermaid. You might be right, Yana might just think it's funny for mermaids to have so much overlap with people from a desert.
Bump
>learn that rsa got revealed >goes to look up news >there are lesbians and pickmes begging for rsa to be co-ed Why? Do these retards know what a joseimuke is? There's like a billion waifu and omnislop games but they chose to shit up a joseimuke instead of just playing those?
>>560055823Main character syndrome. "If it doesn't cater to my specific interests it must be wrong."
>>560056819You might be right. I saw so many beggers saying stupid shit like "adding women into the game isn't going to ruin it" or "it's misogyny to not want women in twst". It's retarded how these fucks won't just play other games with women in them and it's always joseimuke they target. Cowards won't try this shit in waifu games because the know the waifukeks will murder them so they go after joseimuke because they think the playerbase is easier to harass.
>>560058513On the plus side it’s like a neon sign that says “block me please, I have no opinions worth hearing.”What are your thoughts on the silhouettes anon? I was convinced that the animal boy was twink Nala but the pumbaa people have been gaining steam.
>>560062787Yeah, you're right. As for the silhouettes i might be a minority about this but i hope it's not a Lion King character and instead it's Beast from Beauty and the Beast. Really unlikely but it's one of my fave disney movies and i think it would be interesting if the rsa dorms weren't a 1 to 1 parallel of nrc. It'll probably just be twink Nala or Zira tho.
>>560063958Oh yeah I saw the beast people faction too, people pointing out the ribbon on the tail and that kind of thing. It could possibly be the beast, no harm in dreaming. The third and fourth dorms are identical mirrors but Twst does like to throw us curveballs sometimes.My favorite reaction was someone like "I am so glad that mermaid and aladdin dorms are 1 and 2 and they're changing up the order" but then you look at the website and mermaid is 3, aladdin is 4 kek
>>560066782Kek people really think the rsa dorm orders are going to be different? The reveals are for building hype and probably have nothing to do with the actual dorm orders
>>560070878Makes me wonder why they chose those two specifically to reveal first. Maybe they’ll be appearing before the others in book 8? I’ve seen people saying that all will be revealed at anijapan later this month but dumping them all at once would be kind of a waste. As much as I’d like to just see them already Twst can ride this hype for the rest of 2026 if they want to.
>>560071724The reveals of twst Jas and Rielle first were probably because they're based off 2 of the most popular and recognizable princesses plus if the theories are true that it's Kalim's cousin then he has a connection to existing main cast member, same with Rielle who used to go to school with the fish mafia.Meeting them first would be interesting since it could establish new dynamics, as for riding the rsa hype..i doubt twst will do that since unveiling all the princes would mean more fanart and discussion once people get their designs. But they could just milk it like they did with the mainstory
>>560075548I thought they revealed those two first because Jamil and Azul will be in a team together in the first round of the competition and they are most likely going up against their counterparts
>>560075548Yeah those two having a pre-established twst connection pushing them to the forefront makes sense. I wonder if they’re gonna retcon stuff or figure out a more natural way to weave people in. I trust Yana so I’m sure it’ll be fine but the doomsayer in me is like “is Leona or someone gonna suddenly be like ‘Oh I haven’t told you about RSA-character? I’m pretty sure I did, we have this huge history together that I’ve never mentioned until now but is actually super important. Anyway,’”
>>560077619That too, but it's also a good way to build hype since Jasmine and Ariel are insanely popular
I dunno if I trust twst to wait until anime japan silently. They love dropping crumbs. Especially on random tuesdays when everyone least expects it.
The little polaroids for the 6th anni are so great, what a cute idea.
>>560089392I wonder if they're gonna drop a new background again, like the pom basement. That was such a random revelation for an anniversary event. Not complaining, it just came out of no where.
>>560094109Kalim stop cock-blocking the man he has earned a good fucking
>>560029562>>559982046>>559997442>>559998821I'm not sure how many of you there are but thanks /twst/ scans team, that was fast
>>560077619So it’s gonna be Neige, Jasmine and Rielle against Vil, Jamil and Azul?
>>560100802I wasn't referring to the training teams, I meant the last chapter of the recent main story update Azul reveals he's in the same team as Jamil for the first round of the tournament and we don't know what event it is yet. Vil, and also no one else was mentioned here so I'm assuming it's just Jamiazu for this one, I'm guessing they'll probably go 1:1 of who they're up against and that's why they show twst Ariel and Jasmine first. There's a main story update at the end of the month after anijapan too. If they are going 1:1 then yes Vil will probably be going up against Neige, but most likely in another team with other people for a different event
>>560084852Do you think there will be any news about the anime?
>>560103983>Vil will probably be going up against Neige if Vil loses to Neige again onscreen the melty will be worse then the VDC, bonus if Neige doesn't do anything wrong and is just vibing like in the VDC
>fallen down the Maleace rabbit holeAnd here I thought I was done with rareass Ace ships christ >>560118579I hope they do just so we get more fics of Neige railing the saltiness out of Vil
>>560120880there's a good chance the rsa arc could revive NeigexVil because i miss all good porn from the VDC arc, a lot of NeigeVil artists have pretty much vanished or moved on but we did get something during Diasomnia
Wump
>>560120880Maleace? Any good fanfiction or fan art of this ship?
>>560109554Probably not. Last year Twst had two entire stages at AniJapan, one for the game and one for the anime. This year they just have the game stage.
>>560143420All are on pixiv, so you'll need to use Unique Magic [Google Translate]but that's where the only twst fic worth a damn is anyway https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/71179889This enlightened being is the only one sailing the good ship over there but all their stuff is 10/10. There's s a few other authors in the tag but personally they're not for me. >fanartnever ever rip
>>560150172Hot
>>560150172I wonder if Swing is going to be as popular on EN as he is on JP. I saw a few saucey EN'ers claiming that Swing has already disappeared from the discourse but their algorithms are tricking them, I think, cause I'm still seeing the guy.
If you think RSA will have more characters than Silhouettes, do you think we'll have new twin characters? I think Yana loves twin characters, she has a thing for twins, would you like new twins? And would they probably be from Alice Dorm?
>>560167907I swear to god Idia and Ortho were originally meant to be twins. What with that concept art and Yana saying that Idia was supposed to be the youngest on the cast and that's the reason why we know NRC allows for grade skipping and why Trey has that line in Book 1 about the school having a few child prodigies. Yana loooves twins.
Stupid sexy tako
Ok so the new chapter is the 27th, right? And Ani-Japan is 29th? And the hosts are Kalim and Azul's VAs? So they're definitely talking about Riele and Tiger-cousin, then. I bet right now they're both gonna show up in the next main story chapter.
New rarepair dropped. Official train ads say FloydxKali.
>>560188424I think Floyd would get bored too fast. But he is up there with leona on the list of people I bet would be great at sex.I wonder who would suck, actually. Probably Kalim. Maybe Jamil, they might both be the selfish type. Maybe Deuce though he'd try his best. Probably Jack too. Idia. Sebek.
Is there a tag that specifically filters for ships with male!Yuu on pixiv?
>>560196012マレ監
>>560196482Damn the male sign didn't make it to 4chanTry this anon
holy pink
>>560188424>new this isn't new at all since FloydKalim already exist in jp, it's more wholesome then lewd tho
>>560199624Wow, he really does look a million times better with his hair down
>>560199624He has the slick back hair purely to stop the legions of fangirls he'd amass otherwise from bothering wakasama because holy hell.
>>560199624This chocolate host club series is a gift that never stops giving
Five days until blazejewel on dvd I am vibratiiiing
>>560199624My tl is blowing up with thirsty as fuck jpsisters haha
Sexy Sebek
I messed up and thought sebebe’s bday was the 14th and maybe the devs forgot about him but no, dur, he is one day older than the game.

Kek at how happy Grim looks here
Pulled Rollo but it's on my sparkly new JP account so I have no Grims for him to buddy with. Okay.I still wish the Halloween characters buddied with the boys instead of Grim. I've never had any motivation to raise Grim cards on my other accounts since I don't particularly care for him, either.
>>560258625Yeah I’ve never rolled for Grim, the only ones I have are the SRs we got for free. I am leveling him recently but only because I don’t have any other cards worth prioritizing. I’ve seen the battle animations for cozy Grim though and let me say, they are cute as fuck. He makes biscuits.
>>560199624That tongue is dangerous. Love that we have another card with his hair down.
Mourning the loss of the Glorious Masquerade OVA rumors. That was a brief but fun time.
Don't want to front load the thread with too many images but this is an emergency
It is so interesting that EN caught up to JP's events, but instead of matching the release timing they are choosing to rerun other events from less than a year ago to fill time and keep themselves behind. All while ignoring Master Chef, which I can only assume they're doing because Master Chef isn't that profitable compared to stuff like Ridunzel.
>>560297315Catermunk is EN's one and only event for 2026 outside of nbc pt2 and new year's. Crazy.
People predicting peter pan halloween every year since 2023 but by this point the lack of p.pan is practically a running gag.
>>560312478Petitioning for The Mafia Adventures of Octavinelle animated series.
It's ma'am.
I expect a new wave of salt and fake outrage when Jasmine’s full design gets revealed. I will pray for Yana, I don’t want to see her turning like the Gachiakuta author and just ignore those people.
>>560322802>The soundproofing here is amazing, no matter how you scream or cry no one can hear you outside.>Your consultation remains confidential, such a wonderful space to fully express your emotions>Floyd. Jade. Please refrain from teasing the customersWhat the fuck did they meant by this
Bumpy
>>560332862I am 87% sure there is an interview or tweet thread or something by Yana where she said she has realized that you can't please everyone all of the time and tip toeing around trying to make everyone happy is no way to live, so she doesn't. After 20 years of kuroshitsuji I think she, personally, might be okay. Not so sure about the rest of Twst's dev team and especially Disney, but if they trust her it should be ok. Thankfully she is the creative director for the game so she should have at least some authority over how far they do or do not bend to the nutters, I'd think.
>>560332862>GachiakutaWhat happened with that one? I've heard the name cause Ruggie's VA is in it.
Two days to sexy Sebek, three days to anni, 12 days to Book 8 cont, 14 days to Anime Japan. Great pacing, lots going on but not overwhelming.
>>560379891And the Blazing Jewel DVD/Blu-ray?
>>560332862i doubt Yana would care, she's an industry vet at this point and years of writing Kuroshit has made her numb to criticism, not to mention the twst design already go through multiple concepts and test so if people do schizo out it won't be anything big
>>560371176She got tired of the western fandom
>>560381821Vibratiiiing!
>>560384131a lot of jp in general is tired of the westoid fandom and i don't blame them
>>560389459The auto-translation was a mistake."I am so excited to read what foreign fans have been saying about my art, I...uh...huh. Mm. Nevermind."
When the devs have a favorite ship
>>560399358Justice for FloAzu.Similar topic I bought an octa doujin that starts out with Floyd and Azul at the cabin on the stitch island they're like "time to shag" and go into a bedroom and Jade is just sitting there. And Azul is like "HOW." And he is just like "I figured you two would be getting ready to fuck right about now so I came to join you." And that is it. Never any explanation. It was so funny.
>>560404384>>560399358Too bad that any ship revolving around octa will be killed by Rielle
>>560405106Wait wait waitJamil hates Azul and Azul loves JamilWhat if RSA is mirrored and Jaz-man is in love with Riel and Riel hates his guts. Or at least an RSA equivalent. All we've seen the most of is Neige and he is so bland, I hope the other RSA guys are capable of seething hatred and bitchy cat fights.
>>560405106Oh god, I hadn't considered the impact of a new cast on the shipping ecosystem. This could get messy.
Handsome wani
>>560420178Silver (and Malleus) are lucky.
>>560410359>seen the most of is Neige >Chenya>the dwarves with one of the being angry as shit>Ambrose whose smug all the time Anon, Neige is rare. He barely ever shows up and the ones in Vil and Rook's dreams wasn't Neige, we know nothing about him
>>560410359>All we've seen the most of is Neige and he is so blandfrankly i'm actually anticipating learning more about him, i'm sure there's much more than on the surface and i'm excited to see what it is
So if NRC dormheads will have a meeting, then RSA dormheads will have one too so they can reveal all the designs in one go
Sometimes I wonder how the fandom would react if Ariel Boy wasn't Rielle, even the Japanese fandom hopes it is. I wonder if there's a chance it could be a new character with a new name, and what chaos that would cause?
>>560461919>chaosDepends on your interpretation of "chaos" I guess. It would probably be like, a day and a half of people going "WHAT!?" and then they'd stop talking about it in favor of talking about the new content.
>>560461919Even the thought of it is dumb, why are you bringing this up?
>>560466498I think it's our resident engagement baiter. I appreciate that they try to bump the thread with conversation, but I wish they would be more interesting than "How would the fandom react if...?"
>>560469628I think there are another topics to talk about but this one lost me. Anyways, the 18th is around the corner, what will be Grims groovy about?
>>560472243Since the vignette is a 1st year slumber party I am wondering if we're restarting with the first years, only this time Ortho will be there. Will that mean that the 7th anni will be choco-host-club 2nd years, and 8th anni will be the birthday series for whatever is coming in September? Seems possible.
>>560474242Will be happy for a 2nd-year student host club groovy to be sure, but kind of too bad that it won’t be Idia,Rook, etc. They are looking goood in those outfits. Next year’s birthdays had better be god tier.
>>560483973It is so impossibly to predict, it could be almost anything.Birthday BoyUnion JacketGraduation GownsDisney Fellating ItselfPajamasHost ClubMaybe a long-awaited personal wardrobe series? Ooh, how about a field trip?
>>560487073Jamil doesn't top... stop it... stop it...!!!For the record:>Azul & JamilOne of the few ships where Azul tops>Kalim & JamilJamil has always bottomed, these are the natural roles they've assumed due to their specific master-servant orientation. After Book 4 and/or their dreams it occurs to Kalim to let Jamil try topping and Jamil is like, "Finally!!!" about it but atp their specific roles in bed are too ingrained and it doesn't work out (+100 damage to Jamil's ego), so Kalim contimue topping.>Leona & JamilMy favorite Jamil ship but idk how this one works in bed because they're both bottoms to me. They scissor or something, fuck if I know. Okay, I joke, this is a verse ship because of what both of them have going on psychosexually. They're both annoying bitches when they bottom and it makes whoever is topping fuck like a beast.My takes are peerless under heaven but feel free to disagree.
>>560500771Thank you for sharing your ship dynamics anon it is so interesting to learn about how other people prefer to inerpret the relationships.
From far away he looks like a totally different character but then I zoomed in and it was like nah, yeah, that's sebek.
Sebek liking strawberries is cute
I can't remember where it was but one time I saw a person arguing that Ace and Deuce couldn't be roommates because we know everyone's dorm room numbers and they were in different rooms. And people were like, room numbers? And they were like, yeah. And people were like, where are these room numbers? And they were like, you see them in merch for the birthdays sometimes, they all have their room numbers written somewhere.It was the birth dates.
>>560500771The really weird thing with Twst is it is so hard to assign tops/bottoms to most ships. Some are easy like JeiAzu but Azul and Jamil? I can't figure out a sexy way to make that work in either direction. Same for Trey and Jade. Idia and literally anyone. And you think you've figured it out, like AceDeu or LeoRug, but then someone walks by talking DeuAce or RugLeo and it's like wait what.
>>560518135>Azul and Jamil?It's one of those ships that doesn't have fixed roles, partly because they're both too prideful to fully submit to the other one.
Sexy Leona
Poor Ruggie
>>560458779I wonder if the Megara boy is going to just be sneaky and sarcastic, or if he's going to actually have story elements like being blackmailed/having been walked out on.
>>560545498Maybe
That premise and story was quite funny.https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/142304809
>>560545498It’d be funny if it was like “yeah my ex was an asshole, treated me like shit, ruined my life, I’ll never get over it. Also he’s right over there, we’re in the same class.”
>>560566043Strawbebe
Blazing Jewel blurays are sending out early according to my tl, happy BJ Day to all who celebrate.

The rotating home card thing is fun I just jump scared myself with cleavage malleus
Happy TwstAnni Eve. Ten days until the new Book 8 chapter. It is amazing how we know so much in of that we have 6 years of content, and yet we know so little in of that literally anything could happen and wouldn't really be that much of a surprise. Raverne himself could show up in red pants like "I was mickey mouse the whole time" and it would be just like sure, that tracks.
Pom manga coming soon
Happy anniversary
Not even a 1st years fan but this is extremely cute. I also love seeing Ortho's mischievous side kek.
>>560646251Cute
>>560629473Wonder what the Yuu be like for Pom since this time it'll be a guy
>>560650570Either a very cute and sweet guy or a very masculine, muscular man who doesn't understand anything about makeup or being an actor/model. What do you prefer?
>>560653237A charismatic, very likeable uggo
>>560629473No news…
Gump
>>560629473Never give up anon
Now what’s next, will there be a countdown for the RSA boys?
>>560702725guess it might depend on how big of a role they're gonna actually have. If they're just guest characters then nah, but if they're legit, actually joining the cast, and being on the website gives that vibe...man I cannot believe it's happening.
Happy Birthday Twst
Every once and I while I remember the "ikemen Grim" theory. We can only hope. It would be so funny.
>>560726327What do you mean? Are you talking about Grim gaining a human form? I admit that when I look at his voice actor, I think they plan for him to be able to transform into a human in the future, after all, this choice was made for him to be voiced by this actor!
>>560729108Yah that's exactly what I mean. The more I think about it the more I'm like, wait...nah...but, wait...mmmm no...but what if....no, no no....and yet...
I need Chenya to be Neige's secret boyfriend. I need it. It is a need.
Holy shit the first novel came out four years ago? We've been alive too long.
TWISTED WONDERLAND really loud in public
>>560726327I can't imagine human Grim being anything other than a shota
The real shota will come soon
>>560742249I wonder if he'll be more like Alois? Or if he won't suit Alice at all?
>>560745305If he has to resemble Alois then I hope it's exclusively looks-wise

>>560646251I like seeing the first-year boys together, they're cute and funny, but seeing the group, would you like to see a boy from Scarabia and Octa in the first year with them? And would the group have a representative from every dorm?
Everyone remember to do the special lessons with sebecky for the birthday missions
Now that we know the release date for the Lilo & Stitch 2 live-action movie, I wonder what the chances are of the Stitch event getting a remix, a new version with new characters, and being released in 2028.
i assume like 99% of you are homosexuals
>>560791952Holy crap they’re making another one of those? The first must’ve made all the money. Which is…bizarre.
>>560800469Yes
>>560800469True, after all girls don't browse 4chan.
I really hope the 7th anni is 2nd-year-ccentric. I am full of the 1st years, thanks.
>>560791952We got a second NBC where Jack remembered everyone so it seems possible. It's a 6-member lineup, right? I'd go: Jade, Leona, Idia, Malleus, Vil, Jamil.
Bjewel is so good it’s got me sending clips to my normie friends like “pretend that’s not the sultan and jafar from Aladdin as anime boys and just look. Look at them. Look.”
Do you think Vil would pull a Timothee Chalamet at some point in his career?
>>560835547I have no idea what all that drama is. He made a comment about people not going to operas or ballets?
Sebek has been super nice to me on both servers, at this rate Deuce might lose his top spot to him on my 1st years students ranking.
>>560821212I wish it had Jade, Sebek, Silver, Idia, Leona/Ruggie, or Vil/Rook.
Is this the Yuu that will finally be accepted and loved by /twst/?
>>560847574The drawing is good but why this OC in particular ->that nameOh lol
>>560835713Yup, then after Dune 3 trailer dropped, everyone now loves him after the backlash

Anthology 3…
So it turns out that the main show on the BJ DVD includes the same intermission that was run on Didney, so this one uses the same subtitles as last time.https://we///tl/t-UuSH1Odq9n3-day download
>>560898217You know how those come with a disclaimer that they're not made by anybody associated with twst? But we know yana supervises the main manga and also checked the 4koma? It makes me wonder if one of the anthology artists did something that yana didn't like, but since they can't expect each artist to submit their work for approval and receive requests to make changes and corrections and then redo it and then go through the approval process all over again, they just shut down the whole project as too risky to the brand.
>>560898217Did you see that the first two volumes just got the green light for another reprinting? I'll be honest I don't see the appeal. For the most part the art isn't anything to write home about and it's just square-enix-commissioned fan fiction.
One week to new Book 8 chapter
I keep seeing people guessing that the RSA guys are gonna be next to overblot but like, I don't think so. I don't think they're going to keep rehashing that same thing over and over. The whole point is that overblots basically never happen. And if this game does anything right it's throwing curveballs that no one ever saw coming.
>>560914332Are these en comments or jp comments? I've seen a lot of jp comments more concerning but also cautiously optimistic that twst wouldn't ruin the princesses and heroes image which I feel like if they overblotted would do that since that is a villain thing. I trust Yana to respect the source material though
>>560919051Oops meant for>>560918220
>>560919051You got me, it's EN comments. Now that you mention it it'll be interesting to see the diehards' reactions to the princesses turned princes. No matter what happens, they're going to disapprove. Here's hoping Yana ignores the haters and keeps on keeping on, as she tends to do.
>>560918220>>560921415There is a certain faction of EN fans that seem to prefer and actively desire that the same things keep happening over and over again. I remember when the birthday cards first diverged from the interview style and saw someone say how they hoped that the birthday series would "get back on track" soon and return to interviews. Nothing more dynamic and engaging than a character staring straight into the camera and describing their likes and dislikes, I guess.
So wait if the anni groovies started over with the first years does that mean the year 2029 we will get staff in jammies
>>560902135Oh my god this version cut out Malmal and Lilipi holding hands too, just like the streaming version did. You can kind of see it in the bonus features but I am so unhappy.
>>560909781>>560905685I believe most people bought it because of the Yana cover, not anything else (although I would have loved to see twst illustrated by the Hanako Kun author)
>>560930443I wonder how common it is for people to buy it for the cover, start reading it, go "....wait..." and then put it down like "huh" and never read it again.
>>560928171They took out the close ups of Azul’s hands molesting the mic stand too
>>560902135I still don't know how to use this site, I don't know how this link works or how it functions? I don't think anyone could explain it to me?
>>560954196cute
WAKA-SAMA's number one fangirl is dragging me back into this game by the damn hair, but I gotta know - what's the status with seeing the stories for events you missed and also what's the event schedule like for EN this year? Looking at the wiki I've missed a shit ton of reruns last year, any chance of any of them apart from the Rapunzel riddle coming around again this year or nah?
>>560918220If they're not overblotting, then they're getting a hell of a lotta hype for a bunch of NPCs who get stomped by NRC once they unlock the power of friendship (villian ver).Especially if any of them become a fan fave an overblot ver will print money. (And honestly looking forward to seeing what Yana will do with a dark alice or dark ariel)Plus we never really got an answer for gozilla grim who killed everyone in the prologue and grim eating the overblot stones, right? If the evil plan depends on Grim chomping on overblot stones then I can see influences messing behind the scenes to get the RSA crew to overblot so Grim can eat more (since they're gonna be using an lot of magic during the tournament anyway)
>>560969449>overblotting or NPCsPretty sure that these aren’t the only two options. There are 15 characters on the main cast who never overblot already.
>>560985757Nostalgic.
I didn't notice the ears at first and thought this was SwiSkull art.
Super excited for the new chapter next week but I lowkey bet that nothing is really going to happen beyond the introduction of Jas-man and Ari-male.
Ugh, I fucking hate EN fandom's tendency to exaggerate some flaws (while fully erasing all of the positive traits) in order to turn someone into a caricature so they can shit on them, the most common victims being Azul and Ace.
>>561001935They're miserable people who can only get themselves off by imagining miserable scenarios and then ranting about the voices in their own head. I bet the serotonin hit from all their soapboxing feels real nice.
>>561001935The EN fandom is also the same side of the fandom that wants garbage like "le rsa is secretly evil" or "rsa is co-ed because i don't read the story", just ignore them..i genuinely hope Yana doesn't fuck up the princes but i trust in her writing since the Disney princess are a very big deal in jp.
>>560947042I wonder if we're ever going to be blessed with official depictions of the characters wearing each others dorm uniforms.
>>561007583Happened once. It can happen again.
I hope Yana's doing well. It's amazing that she's been doing twst for 1/4th of kuroshi's entire run.
BlazeJewel is so great you guys. I am enjoy.
I forget all that we're counting down to, is this everythingChapter 8 installment/RSA revealAnime JapanAnime Season 23rd Novel3rd Anthology (not gonna happen)
>>561025606I still don't know how to download the video. Do I look at that link and try to put it on a website?
>>561029318Is that in presumed order of release?At this rate it's never going to happen, but I would love a fourth novel. And a fifth too, but I bet that Book 6 in novel form would be especially amazing.
>>561029318Is anyone else surprised that Twisted never had a stage play? Several less popular games and franchises have had them. Do you think it's because of the voice actors? They don't want to hire actors for a stage play yet, and after all, BlazeJewel was only last year, a 3D music show like that.
>>561033778Maybe voice actor issue, maybe Disney issue? I wouldn't be surprised if Disney-main doesn't want to sign off on a musical spinoff of one of its, uh, less-mainstream properties when they already have musicals for stuff like actual-lion-king, actual-beauty-and-the-beast, etc.
>>561033778Question: does anyone even want a stage play? I kinda feel bad if they get new actors for them and have to be compared to the voice actors some of which are already stage actors. The poor guy who has to compete with Kazuki Kato
>>561034564I don't, but I think I'm biased because I don't like anime/video game musical adaptations at all. I've only seen them in videos but they look like they have real low production value and I'd be cowering in secondhand embarrassment if I ever went to see one. I've seen other JP musicals that I've liked, it's really just the stuff adapted from anime/video games that I can't handle. Maybe it's the wigs and stuff? I saw a recording of the Campania musical and the actress for Lizzie was fucking amazing but the fight scenes were just so ridiculous.
>>561034564Itokawa, Furuta, KobaTatsu, Ishiya, Komada and Futaba could be their characters themselves, they've appeared in anime/game-adapted musicals already. Kato would possibly do it for the love of the game, he seems to really enjoy his job. Dunno if they could talk Aiba into it, and Tsuchiya is like 6 feet tall so he'd be NG on that alone. So that would be like 1/3rd of the cast with their usual voices and 2/3rds voiced by randos, which would be...odd.
>>561033778I learned the other day that the Lamento musical is still going. A cat-boy porn game from 20 years ago.
>>560902135I still don't know how this link works, where to click, or what to do.
>>561069667Oh my godHigh ponytail
>>561033778Twst is really covering their basis for media mixing.Manga, LN, artbooks, anthologies, 4koma, anime, virtual live, exhibitions, character songs, soundtrack releases, figurines, theme cafes, brand collaborations, crossovers (tsumtsum).All we're really missing is animated OVAs.They had better not get their live-action mitts on this IP.
>>561089301>live-action I'm hoping that Yana was too traumatized by the black butler live action to ever allow it. Assuming she gets any say in it, of course, she probably doesn't. If Disney wants a live action Twst, a live action Twst they will get, but I hope they won't go there. Seems like it would be watering down the stuff that people actually like, and for what? High risk, low reward.
>>561089301But I still want spin-off video games, for example I would love a Musou-style game and another similar to FE Three Houses.
>>561096106I have no idea what any of those words mean.
>>561089301Glorious Masquerade movie, my beloved. I will never forgive the people who spread that rumor and got my hopes up, all for nothing. I weep.
Five days left to the book 8 release, I'm thinking we're not getting a character reveal countdown..
>>561110836The countdown art is of an era where Yana had the time to do what she wanted. I cannot imagine what her to-do list must look like. She needs like 18 assistants who are all very good at their jobs.
>>561113767But what has changed? she is still working Kuroshit and twst at the same pace in these past 6 years
Hey oldfags has anything ever come close to the hype of the bedroom reveals during Wish Upon a Star? I wasn't here for that but I hear it was a wild time.
>>561116332Played this game jp on launch I don't remember that being that huge, sure the Malleus portrait in Sebek's room was clowned on relentlessly but hype was not to the scale of any of the Halloween events I feel? Kinda feels like ghost marriage had a bigger impact than that sometimes people still talk about it>>561116332. I'm assuming we're not counting main story hype in this topic because after Malleus's overblot and that first use of the title it sent jp people on what was like a month-long psychosis trying to figure out what parts of the game were 'real' or just a dream. Theories were wild, non-stop threads of analysis on twt. Good times.
>>561116332Sorry I misread the question. Nothing has come close to the room reveals as of today.
>>561114026Have you seen the tracking over what Yana's been doing from launch to today? When things first started she was doing everything. She was drawing background art and props for gods sake. She did all of the early events like Beanfest and Wish Upon. She wasn't just overseeing, she was in the trenches are drawing out cards art for Rs and SRs, including base art and groovied art. Twst at launch was all Yana.These days all she does is approve. She did the overblot series, but that is actually part of what makes it special, because she doesn't draw card art anymore. She doesn't draw backgrounds anymore, she doesn't plan events from the ground up anymore. She's still the creative director and it's still her responsibility to approve/reject ideas and decide what gets made, but she went from being the person making it to being the person who says yes or no. And that's why we'll never have another beanfest.We got those countdown arts because square enix or somebody asked her to make them four just the housewardens, and she one-upped them and volunteered to make them for the entire cast instead. It's like how she used to post doodles and sketches from Kuroshit to twitter all the time, but hasn't done it in years. Things are not the same.
>>561116332Rooms will be the only thing that will remain as memorable. Since it was an exploration for each character personalities and get to know more about them.But if we talk about Twst revival, of course the Halloween series. Some bits from each book since Book 5 and coming up next RSA reveal. And as for madness at a bigger scale, it was Rollo reveal, seething left and right from ENtards. And for the cherry on top, his card reveal, got them killed.
>>561120189The scandal that was Rollo, that is so nostalgic. And ENserver is run by fucking cowards who took him out of banner ads. Embarrassed by the very thing they were hired to promote. Pathetic.
>>561120189My personal hype day was Cerberus Ortho, I think. I'm not an Orthosis or anything. Idia isn't my boy either. So I'm not sure why, but for some reason that card really got me, like damn, I am glad to be alive at the point in human history when were blessed with Cerberus Ortho.Glomasu was also big for me, when that trailer dropped, the one that ended with Rollo looking back over his shoulder at the camera. Goosebumps.
>>561119071god i remember twst in the early days when hype was everywhere, the servers kept crashing because so many people would log in at once, updates were even slower due to Yana and her crew being horribly unprepared, and my jp feed on twitter being flooded with twst no matter where i went. those were some crazy times
>>561119071As long as it's still her writing for main story and bigger more important events like glomas I don't mind the work being handed off to her apprentices with her still over seeing. I am constantly afraid she'll collapse writing and drawing for both Kuro and twst on top of other projects she's a guest for must be really hard. In the early days one of the biggest complaints from the jp player base was there just wasn't enough cards to pull and updates were too slow, it was a period of time many dropped the game. I still remember the posts comparing twst to mhyk releases and the scathing criticism twst got, people getting tired of heartslabyul, diaso fans leaving all of that. We're more steady now and I'm glad Yana has help. Kuro is in its last arc though I heard? Wonder how long it'll take to wrap up
>>561128134People are saying it's kuro's last arc but people don't know shit. It could go for another 10 years, and I bet it will. It's gfan's biggest draw, they don't WANT that shit to end.I'm glad she has help these days too and I'm in the same boat, as long as she is still writing the main story (she is) and is telling people what to do (she is), I'll take it. Looking at the Halloween stuff, the two Scary Monsters events were 100% Yana. Glomas was 90% Yana, background art and costume design done by her assistants, she said on twt. Playfulland is a little more vague, the only thing she tweeted about it gave credit to both herself and her assistants. I remember a lot of people suspecting she didn't have much a role compared to earlier ones. And the two Nightmare events were the same, she didn't specify "I did this and they did this," she just said in a tweet that they did it all together, so who knows. Maybe more supervisory, maybe she literally gave birth to Skully and Swing.
>>561128134>one of the biggest complaints from the jp player base was there wasn't enough cards to pull and updates were too slow, it was a period of time many dropped the game Remember when we were stuck in the first Halloween event because twst just didn't have anything prepared and things were still being worked on? Or how Pom's chapter took forever to progress so we were stuck doing dance practice for ages, which then lead to that crashout when Neige won in the end? Good times.
>>561132639And then COVID and everything even slower. No voice acting. Really did take years to get this stable. I'd say the early times trained us pretty well though, they can go half a year between main story content installment and no one says a thing.
Don't die /twst/!
>>561134031I do wish that new content would get released faster though. Twst is probably one of the slower gachas I've played when it comes to releasing new stuff.
What are new perks if you pay for the monthly pass?
>>561164442I like the slow pace, but that might just be me. It's nice to be able to just exist in the new revelations that come out and analyze things with people and also work a job and be an adult and whatnot. Then when a new release comes it's like some huge, exciting happening instead of "oh something new is here, I guess it must be tuesday."
I wonder if they'll figure out a way to give us a hyena-based event. A hometown event is unlikely cause we've been there, done that with Leona, but maybe something like Jade or Vil's where it's not actually where he's from but eh close enough.We need more hyena is what I am saying.
>>561192272Are you talking about an event about Ruggie? Ruggie being the protagonist? I would love that, but I'd like Leona to have an important role in this event then.
>>561193924Yes. The best boy. I agree that Leona being there would be a delight, Jack got to be in Leona's event, it would only be fair. But Ruggish being main character and getting the attention he deserves. Baby hyena.
>>561183501It is nice when a gacha is easy to drop for a while and come back to when something big happens, but i'm so used to other gacha always riding their hype trains after big announcements. RSA got announced but we still have a week or so before we even see the full designs.
>>561209950I wonder if that’s the marketing angle they took. By dropping a teaser so early they are allowing time for word-of-mouth advertising. People who might’ve never played twst might see fanart of ikemen-jasmine on pixiv two weeks after the silhouette was dropping and be like “oh?” It keeps people talking about twst. Even if it’s dumbass takes like “the characters should be women,” that’s still free advertising. They’re keeping the game in public consciousness. Then people look it up and realize the character isn’t out yet, they’re just in time to join the hype train, download twst you guys there’s some crazy stuff happening. Etc etc. Kind of like how so many ENers got into twst from that tumblr post calling kalim a twink Iago. That single post was way, way more effective advertising than anything EN’s entire advertising budget could ever hope to achieve. Gotta keep people talking about it, even if they’re wrong.
>>561211890You might be right since the silhouettes did cause normalfags that don't play twst and gacha players from other games to notice all the noise happening in the fandom. You even had retarded post saying "there's no way those 2 silhouettes could be men" from idiots that don't know how Yana draws men and don't play the game. We'll see how well this pays off in a week, twst itself won't be affected since the core fanbase will still spend but the melty from schizos claiming they that "rsa is secret co-ed, guyz" should be fun to watch.
>>561213875Looking forward to it, for sure. But they might just get real quiet and move on to their next soap box. I’m trying to think of an example…when book 6 ended on JP and we got to see the fake-refurbished room for the prefect that was actually just projection mapping courtesy of Vil? There were yumes who, based on nothing but the visuals in that scene, decided that Malleus had completely renovated Ramshackle dorm single-handedly, including renovating the bedroom in green fabrics as though saying “the prefect belongs to me,” because Malleyuu is canon, right? Except then the English dropped and oops, not only was malleus entirely uninvolved in the renovation (even though he absolutely could have done it instantaneously if he felt like it), the prefect actually lived in Pomefiore while it was happening, and the green “property of malleus draconia” decorations? Those were courtesy of the projector, which came from Vil. Malleus was even less involved than any of us could have guessed. And all those yumes just…never acknowledged it. It didn’t fit their headcanon, they were probably embarrassed, and just moved on to making stuff up about something else.I could see that happening with the RSA reveal, too. Everyone who claimed that they must be women, they’re quitting the game if there are no women, obviously these are clearly women and if you think otherwise you’re misogynist will just move on to the next thing to act like a victim about, that’s all. Very unsatisfying, but it is what it is.
God, if you are there, please... bless this poor girl. Make Chenya a massive shotacon in love with twst Alice. That's all I want. Make the blond shota get barbed. I need that so much you have no idea.
>>561217689This but with Twst Nala/Cheka. RSA being extra degenerate than NRC is more than welcome.
>>561218807Ok I'm not into shotabait but that would be fucking funny. "Welcome to RSA the school of wholesomeness and purity. The chesire cat is in love with alice, who is 4 feet tall. Nala is obsessed with a five year old. Ariel is fucking one of our teachers. Neige has a literal harem. What do you mean this isn't what you were expecting I don't understand."
>>561217689I will accept Chenya/Alice as long as it happens alongside Chenya/Neige. Actually, Chenya should just be fucking everyone. He should be the Ruggie of RSA.
>>561219072The thought of Twst Meg being Idia’s nightmare (wet dreams) is driving me crazy.
>>561219072>meanwhile me out here hoping it's not Nala because I want a Beauty and the Beast dorm instead Please, I don't anymore lions. Give me Beast as a sexo twink, Yana!
>>561221383The Beast would be so out of no where but I'm kind of here for it. I swear someone has a line somewhere about how lion beastmen are rare? I think it was Fellow? Or maybe that is something the fandom made up and it was a misunderstanding of Leona's line about how the royal family is lion beastmen cause of scar. Either way, there is a chance that it's not Nala. Fight the good fight anon I am rooting for you.
>>561220286I am all for sexy-man-meg, don't get me wrong, but everyone at RSA being hypersexual EXCEPT man-meg would actually be kind of funny. "Why is the character based on a ten-year-old child humping that character based on a cat, while the character based on a woman who has most definitely, canonically had sex being depicted as a complete cinnamoroll."
>>561220286If they're all each other's opposites is meg gonna be like, a jock. Alice is gonna be Alois. Ariel is gonna be an airhead. Jasmine is going to actually be in control of his own life. Neige. Fairyboy is gonna be, I don't even know what. What is the opposite of an autistic dragon.
>>561215175>moved on to making stuff up about something else.I just saw some of these the other day. One Ener was claiming that it's canon that Ruggie's dad will regularly go back to visit him and ask for money, but this information was removed from the english but she knows about it cause she has a friend who knows japanese and read it on the JP server so it's canon. Which is all complete bullshit that she made up in her head, probably because she was losing an argument.And another person who was arguing with people that Trey's dad is a dentist. And people were like, no, he's a baker. And the Ener was like he is both a baker AND a dentist, you see, that's why trey is so sly and conniving, his dad is a dentist who sells sweets to people to ruin their teeth and then they go back to him to have him fix their teeth because he is a dentist, he and Sebek's dad are both dentists, there are two dentist dads in Twst. Which is also complete bullshit that they made up in their head and just would not stop doubling down on. It was stunning to behold.
>>561226342The sleeping beauty guy is the least appealing in silhouette which makes me wonder if they’re pulling an Azul where his silhouette is meh but the man himself is a delight.
>>561226342>What is the opposite of an autistic dragon.I believe he will have the 3 good fairies personalities crammed up all together. Maybe he will be bossy, kind and outspoken? And of course, very popular to be invited in all parties of the world.
>>561242014>>561226342>What is the opposite of an autistic dragon.I can see him being a goody two-shoes and a bit of a pushover despite being a very powerful mage on his own (not as OP as Malleus but still way above average) and he's easy to get along with due to his warm and approachable personality. Bonus points if he has a soft spot for Silver and they get along while Malleus and Lilia hate his guts.
Twst is doing great https://x.com/game_idaa/status/2035919604481216996?s=46
>>561249295It always does great and outsells its competitors during the anniversary period and Halloween events
>>561241643>The sleeping beauty guyDo you mean the dude cosplaying one of the good fairies? There's a good chance he's a fae or just a funky wizard since rsa guys are supposed to nice funny guys.
So there's less than a week left until Ariel Boy and Jasmine Boy appear!? I'm excited for that, but I'm curious if more characters from their dorms will appear? I really wanted characters based on Rajah and Flounder, for example.
>>561244971>a goody two-shoesChanting "I trust Yana" over and over in my head. If anyone can pull this off, it's Yana. It'll be fine. No big thing. But dear god these guys had better had more personality than "good person" and "so wholesome."
>>561284218I doubt all of them are gonna be as 'wholesome and pure' as Neige, twst Meg will likely be sardonic and twst Alice a mischievous, family friendly version of Alois.
>>561286051The en fandom is giving me an allergy to the word "wholesome." I do not want fucking wholesome, I want catty bitches and unrepentant assholes, that is why we have gathered here today, till death to us part.
>>561286559I believe all princesses except SW snd Aurora have their flaws. For example Ariel, she’s rebellious and if she wants something, she will get it without thinking about the consequences. Alice is stubborn, Megara is cynical. Hopefully Yana took those traits as foundation to create boys beyond the “le cute and wholesome :3” shit. We only stand Neige in that regard. I can only think of Jasmine being like “the most normal” girl, I would say he would be pretty much be like Jamil but without his shenanigans?
>>561289637Since Jamil's thing partly is that he is high strung because of course he is, the dude never gets a break, I am wondering if his RSA counterpart might be super laid back? But like, legit laid back, not pretend-laid back like Leona is. But either way there is no way we're gonna get THAT much depth into these new guys, right? Maybe? I have no idea what to think, this all came out of no where.
>>561289637twst Jasmine and Nala (assuming that's Savanclaw rival twisted from) should be normal guys with grounded sense of values, Rielle I kind of imagine him to be like Starfire from Teen Titans, naive, eager to get familiar with land dwellers and their culture but has a rebellious strike and can easily stand up for himself and others if needed. What I'm saying is, if our guys don't behave like saturday morning cartoon villains, I doubt RSA will be as wholesome and overly sparkly as their Disney counterparts.>but NeigeHe'll get some character depth toom
>>561295325I want to say Neige has potential for actual character depth but judging just on what little we have seen, it isn't looking good. He's not malicious just annoying and shallow, the same thing I hate about Kalim.Chenya is the wild card. He didn't have a question mark next to his name in Riddle's dream, so there are theories that he was actually there and that was the real guy fucking with them. I like his "I might do a thing later if I feel like it but I also might just not feel like it in which case fuck you" kind of vibe but I dunno how far they're gonna push it, he did sacrifice himself in glomasu after all.
>>561296029But Kalim is a great and very deep character, his relationship and dynamic with Jamil is excellent.
>>561299204Based and true. Kalim's life is actually pretty traumatic and horrible considering he's been a target of assassinations his entire life, he has multiple siblings likely because his dad knows if he dies he can always be replaced, and the reason why he gets spoiled and put on a pedestal along with not being allowed to learn skills for himself is due to his father knowing there's a chance he'll die so his life needs to be comfortable. Shame that Yana doesn't seem to play around with this more, she sucks massive ass at exploring characters like Kalim. It's why I hope she doesn't fumble Neige's story because anons here are already judging him from miniscule amounts of screentime he's had. I also doubt twst Alice will be "family friendly Alios" when actual Alice was a good girl but reckless and a bit dumb.
>>561300353>very deep characterwhere>>561300353>poor nepobabyI'm sorry but I have no interest in that character. I want to say that yana dropped the ball, but she was actually amazingly successful in of that she somehow designed a character who is an ungrateful, ignorant, retarded little nepobaby who has never and will never have to try at anything at his life, and somehow, in the current, modern-day climate, there are people who defend him. That is amazing. That character is elon musk. He should be objectively the most hated existence in the game, but she has manipulated the audience like dogville or something into rooting for an actual, legitimate villain. That is yana's power.
>>561302729>comparing Kalim to elon muskratJesus, Kalim haters are a different breed of mental illness. If Kalim was actually awful then JP and EN wouldn't have fanbases for him and he wouldn't be featured in so many events. I swear every time people call Kalim a nepobaby that doesn't try have never read his stories where he genuinely does try in all his classes, he's really generous because he likes people, and he's airheaded due to years of everyone walking on eggshells around him so he loves being at NRC because people don't treat him that way.And do you feel the same way about Leona whose also insanely rich, comes from an influencial family, and never tried because he literally just gave up so he bummed around a school for years? What exactly is your moral standard?
>Kalim is just as bad "insert real life actual scumbag i hate for political reasons"meds this is a disney villian game where a fat tako runs a fish cartel that enslaved a bunch of students, a lion furry nearly turned his hyena whipping boy into sand, a teenaged movie actor almost killed a guy with poisoned juice, and a dragon domain expansioned an island into eternal sleep
>>561303727Terrible characters have fanbases all the time. If that is your argument then I can one-up you: the "Anti-Kalim" thread is the longest running anti thread on 2ch. JP fans know he's shit, they just don't talk about it on main.Did you read the story where Jamil had to ditch his own club meeting because Kalim needed him to do his homework? He isn't generous. Money is like tash to him. If I lived on a mountain of garbage that would never run out and randomly gave garbage out to people because it was worthless to me, would I be generous? No.He's airheaded because he has to be. If he ever expresses even the slightest self awareness of what he and his family are doing to those around him, he loses sunshine status and that can never, ever happen. He isn't ignorant for any reason besides the requirement of the narrative. He isn't a toddler, he is 17. The fact that he has never and will never take personal responsibility for anything in his life and still has defenders is a failure of reading comprehension, that's all.Leona's whole deal is that he actually does try, he just hides it because he doesn't want anyone to know. All his effort, all his fighting is taking place behind the scenes, supporting people and giving advice, and when they thank him for his help he claims he never did anything at all. If you believe the characters like Idia and Vil who say that he is lazy and bumming around school instead of reading the actual content around Leona himself, that's on you. He isn't bumming around school, he hasn't given up. "Appearances can be deceiving" is the entire point of the game. If you're judging on appearances then maybe you're a little too young to be playing. It is for ages 4 and up, after all, not appropriate curriculum for the preschool-level spoon-feeling media you apparently require.
>>561304145Yeah, and they've all got nuance and reasons behind what they do and depth and interesting character arcs. Unlike mr. "born into riches, makes a child cook for me and teach me and get poisoned in my place and sees nothing wrong with this." Everyone else had an actual character arc, kalim has been retarded from the prologue to the end of book 7. He got a bit of a bitch slap in 7.5 and that was cathartic, but it's obvious he still doesn't get it and never will.
>>561304145Just curious does jamil as a child being put to the task of poison tester and risking death for the asim line to continue, not count as a human rights violation?
>>561302729>rooting for an actual, legitimate villainI must admit, during the Book 7 Scarabia fist fight, I was a little surprised when I saw a few people rooting for Kalim. The power imbalance is absurd. Kalim owns the land that Jamil's family lives on, Jamil would be hit as a child by his own parents for refusing to kowtow to Kalim, pressure that has been building over 17 years of his entire life revolving around his ability to protect Kalim from danger, die from poison so Kalim will live, cook so Kalim will eat, teach so Kalim will learn, serve so Kalim will be comfortable. 17 years, the frustration exploded, and people rooted for Kalim. That was a moment, for sure. And in the end, Jamil still sacrificed himself to the abyss so Kalim would be safe. Now I want to reread Book 7.
>>561305539Oo guys let's do a thought experiment kind of thing and approach kalim as his own character instead of someone tied to jamil.New setting is that Kalim is still born rich blah blah but his servants are adults. Professionals who have worked hard to get where they are, they always dreamed of one day earning the honor of being poisoned to death in place of an Asim son or whatever. Is he better without jamil as his whipping boy? He goes to NRC and he has adult servants doing his homework for him, adult servants cooking for him and cleaning up after him and getting him dressed. I wonder if he would be any different at all.
Cute boy
>>561307289Oh my god. I have never wanted anything more in life than twink bambi.
>>561307182>Kalim minus Jamil = Kalim>Jamil minus Kalim = just Some Guykek
>>561304445Anon, I've read all of those stories and Kalim isn't nearly as bad as schizos on 4ch and 2ch make him out to be. Jamil's awful life is because of his parents and their neglect and fear over their son's own happiness, Kalim is just as much of a product of this system and environment as Jamil is. And Leona is the embodiment of "cool, he's a grown ass man in a school full of teenagers", I like Leona and even I know that doesn't excuse him almost killing Ruggie or being stuck in a school instead of getting a job and helping his country. >maybe you're a little too young to be playing Anon, I'm in my late 20s. People are allowed to like characters you dislike and that doesn't mean they are minors. Also thank fucking god 2ch and 4ch aren't the majority of any fanbase.
>>561304685cool motive, still almost murder>>561304837you can blame the assassins for that and the system in the Scalding Sands for allowing this to even exist
>>561308408>Anon, I'm in my late 20s. I was referring to mental age dear, I did not think I was speaking to a literal 3 year old. Just someone mentally three years old. Try to keep up.
>>561308684The murder attempts were fiction. The annoyance Kalim inspires is real.>>561308684It's always somebody else's fault with Kalim fans. "It's not Kalim' fault that he is forcing Jamil to be poisoned in his place, it is literally the fault of everybody else."May I ask if there is ever, any situation at all in which you actually think Kalim should take personal responsibility for something? Why is Jamil old enough to die so Kalim will live, but Kalim isn't old enough to realize that's what he's doing to the person he calls his friend?
>>561308704>you're a minor mentally because you like a character i don't I think you might be too young for this game, anon.This might surprise you but people can enjoy things you don't like.
>>561308970I am truly humbled by your wise and mature "I am rubber and you are glue" response. You are as truly as self-aware and competent as the character you defend. This explains a lot.
>>561308907>the person he calls his friend?Thank God I am not the only person who noticed this. I have always been bothered by this part of his character.
>Kalim gets mentioned in the slightest in /twst/ >shitfling contest about moralfagging and "Jamil did nothing wrong" or "Kalim did nothing wrong" ensuesOh boy! I can't wait for RSA to have a lot of wholesome good boy characters /twst/ will moralfag about because the NRC boys hate them! Yippee!
>>561309370Hey they're keeping the thread bumped without images or stupid-ass engagement bait. Let them fight.
>>561309489I'm sorry but I'm so sick of both sides of this retarded argument. Its funny to watch the shitfling on both sides but if this moralfagging bleeds into the RSA boys later like how people are already sperging about Neige then it'll be even more annoying.You already have retards online claiming Rielle bullied Azul or Neige is "too wholesome and boring", I just want to collect cute boys based off Disney characters, man.
>>561310237>lets have interesting discourse on 4chan>no wait not like thatThese bitches talk about stuff I’m tired of hearing about all the time. I handle it by not engaging, or derailing their little hissy fits with a new topic. Be the change you want to see, anon. If you don’t want to read essays about why Kalim sucks then give us something else to work with.>riel bullied AzulOh god I wish I knew how this one became so prevelant there is NOTHING in the game that even hints at it
>>561310737I hate the Scarabia moralfagging because you fucks just run around in circles over and over and OVER again! This happens every fucking time that shithole dorm is mentioned! >muh Jamil did nothing wrong >nuh uh muh Kalim did nothing wrong >NUH UH >UH HUH >repeat 1000000000000x these past 6 yrs Makes me miss the days when people we were stuck in Pom because of delays so people kept arguing about Epel and Vil and trannies claiming Vil is trans on twitter or Rollo being racist. And as for the Rielle being a bully headcanon...that's from weirdos on tumblr and twitter wanting Rielle to be responsible for Azul's trauma because they're those "RSA boys are all secretly evil" fags. Honestly, I'd rather talk about this then the current boring samey shitfling.
>>561307289I like me more bad cat boys
>>561309489>stupid-ass engagement baitfrankly this is just as bad. look at this passive aggressive little bitch behavior.>>561308704 >>561308970>deari'm embarrassed to share a thread with these fucking losers. both kalim haters and kalim "stans" are retarded and annoying>>561311476right? lmao. it's actually made me dislike kalim and jamil both more
>>561309370I just want RSA to become homewreckers and destroy the most popular ships!
>>561311476I say again, if you don’t like it, then be the change you want to see. We’re not limited to only discussing one thing at a time, believe it or not. And if you can’t come up with something more interesting to stomp out the moralfagging then you’re letting the moralfags win, you’re part of the problem, and that’s on you.>>561311612Oh my GOD yes, I would love the Siamese racist stereotypes in this game to death.
>>561307289>>561311612speaking of possible boys WHERE IS TWST HOOKIT'S BEEN 6 YEARS YANA WHERE IS HE>>561311796based and same
>>561311837He’s locked in the Pome basement
>>561311904I'M GOING IN MYSELFI NEED MORE MEN WITH LONG BLACK HAIR (thankfully swing was a recent surprise treat)
>>561311837By this point there are got to be some weird copyright or IP ownership or fucked up, hair-splitting legal excuse for Peter Pan not being here. It’s like how Warner bros have trademarked stuff like “ruby red slippers” and “yellow brick road” and stuff from wizard of oz, so other people can make wizard of oz shit based on the book but they can’t touch any of Warner bros’ copyrighted elements. Something like that I bet.
>>561311690Kalimfags and anti-Kalimfags are the worst of the worst in /twst/. They unironically make me wish Scarabia didn't exist so I don't have to be subjected to their brain tumor indunced moralfagging. They are retards in every sense of the word comparing trash to garbage for 6 yrs straight. How they haven't gotten sick of this? We'll never know.
Rielle seducing Jamil…!
>>561312049This is the captain you will get and you will like it
>>561313376If a fucking treasure planet character comes up who is somehow even more overt than deuce, then we know that Yana has 100% complete control over everything and Disney is at her mercy.
>>561311612Cute cat twinks but they look too much like Ruggie
now that the Scarabia retards are done sperging about the worst dorm no one cares about, i want to say i wish twst wasn't so lazy when it came to this year's anni vid which just a slide show with no animations
>>561319304I mean, given the choice between shit art that makes the boys look ugly and slideshows I’ll take the slideshow. I get that that shouldn’t be our only options, “good animation and pretty boys” should also be on the table, but it’s apparently not. This year was better than year 2. Flying silver haunts me. Guy who is literally canonically famous for being attractive, looking like shit? an unforgivable sin.
>>561320173i just don't get how much the animation quality has fluctuated so wildly over the years, we just recently had a whole anime come out and we don't get a fully animated pv for a 6th anni? that's depressing
>>561320969Isn't it a different studio that does the PVs? They are also different departments with different budgets, different priorities, etc. Anni 6 commercial could be the most gorgeous piece of art in the world and it would still be a commercial for a game that is free to play. Even if it does indirectly result in some form of revenue somehow, they'd never be able to track it and present that to the higher-ups of proof of why they should be investing more time and money in those PVs. They're a fun little bonus, throwing the fandom a bone. Not a lot of space in the budget for that sort of thing, so a slideshow it is.
>>561320969>>561321626What's funny is I bet they'd get way better responses with just a few drawings by Yana.
>>561321626i think i might be spoiled by how good fgo pvs are, especially for annis because seeing twst 6th anni pv be a slideshow but fgo has fully animated anni pvs and they once did an entire music video that looks gorgeous for their anni gave me whiplash
>>561324018FGO is one of the highest-grossing mobile games in history. It is not even in the same continent as Twst. Twst has barely 1/10th of its profits. So its PCs are 1/10th the quality, I guess. Once Twst's revenue goes from the millions to multi-billions like FGO, we can complain.
>>561321626I'd honestly rather they invest that time and money into the game to get more fun ways to tell the story, the irasutoya video was so good. And also paying Yana more that woman is doing everything. But>>561324172 is right. Twst is massive in Japan, but it still isn't like the mainstream appeal that games like FGO, GBF, Umamusume, HYV etc have. Just the fact it is joseimuke already limits it more and gave us concern for the twst anime because the industry just doesn't have a very good track record of investing more in joseimuke. It's somewhat of a miracle to me we got a decent looking adaptation
Eners are so goddamn delusional lmao
>>561327623I think they’re jelly that Malleus has called one and only one person ever a friend and it wasn’t the prefect, it was Lilia. Which was kind of a hilarious bait and switch from the game, since book 7 opened with Lilia telling the prefect “he needs a friend, please be his friend” and ended with malleus saying “Lilia you are my friend actually.” Love it.
>>561327623>Diasomnia is one of the dorms (other is Igni) that has an actual family dynamic that isn't just headcanon>proceed to fuck that up and not understand how their dynamics work Lilia is both Malleus' uncle and best friend, he also has his grandma but ENfags almost never talk about her. I hope RSA has a character from Briar Valley so that way we know more about the place outside of what Diasomnia tells us.
>>561328395My favorites are the “Sebek is too obsessed with malleus type he should be over that by now” people. Kid was raised surrounded by people, an entire country, deifying that guy as the tragic child and final hope their beloved princess died to protect. That is all he has ever known his entire life. He has been outside of that bubble for like 6 months. He’s basically going to school with God.
>>561328395>UncleThat's never said and I'd be careful with adding stuff like that since the game already explicitly says friend. I feel like with en you have to use and repeat the exact word the game says or anything like that and people will take it if it fits their agenda and parrot it into mass misinformation.
>>561328815I prefer fairy godfather. Saying uncle brings the “THATS INCEST” freaks out of their smelly little goblin hives.
>>561329848ngl I feel like that does it too. En gets really weird with anything close to familial terms. There's already a canon term for how Malleus sees Lilia the game went to the trouble of making it a big deal, I personally wouldn't go around adding stuff that wasn't explicitly said and is just headcanon at most when talking about canon. While on this train of thought though it took years for Lilia to call Silver his son, how long is he gonna take to call Malleus his friend too kek
>>561330421Don’t tell EN that, they think Lilia called him his son during spectral soirée and malleus called the prefect a friend during glomasu because the localization sucks fucking ass
>>561331969I was about to ask, "Do you think they know how badly they mess up?" but I don't think it matters. If they knew, I doubt they'd care. It's just some game for girls.
>>561331969On that topic if someone were to, in theory, combine some fan translations with the official translation for fun, what would be a good format for people? PDFs or google docs or what? Just, yanno, hypothetically speaking.
>>561335920 same fagI mean for the novel, not for the game, I am not suggesting putting all of twisted wonderland in a google doc. But the official English for the savanaclaw novel pissed me off and I am still not over it.
>>561335993counterpoint: what if we were to put all of twisted wonderland in a Google docIs it really true that other games don't let people share screenshots or upload playthroughs? I've heard people say that Twst is generous for allowing fans to do that kind of thing.
>>561312180OG peter pan book? Public domain. The PLAY however is permanently copyrighted under ownership of a children's hospital in the uk, though that's only applies for works released in the uk in regards to royalties. My only guess is that it's connected to the fact the disney film is based on the later novelization of the play, though none of the music overlaps between them.
>>561340147>Is it really true that other games don't let people share screenshots or upload playthroughs?for gacha games? i've seen plenty of playthroughs uploaded to youtube of other gachas, it's usually only exclusive events that aren't allowed to be posted online
>>561313376>tfw we'll never get twst!Captain Hook and twst!John Silver having a cool sword fight
>>561324018It's not really worth comparing twst's pv to fgo's since Fate is a titan of a franchise in the anime sphere and fgo is a very profitable game. But you can compare twst's pv to nu:c's 4th anni pv that came out the other week, which is both animated and has new music.
>>561344393That's a new opening for the game and not just an ad tho. Speaking of I wonder if we'll ever get a new opening for twst, Piece of My World is great but I am greedy and upgraded animations would be nice
>>561345603Where would they put it? The only time we see a PomW opening is at the end of the prologue. What…would be the point of changing that.
>>561349892No no not change PoMW. They could insert it right at the beginning of a new arc, just like PoMW appearing in the main story? Don't think that'd be weird
>>561353681Maybe they could add new footage like obs + rsa boys at the end, keeping the song of course.
>goes to check out EN side of the fanbase to look for fanart >it's full of schizos making shit up about rsa being women because "rsa was never stated to be a boys school like nrc" >schizos calling anyone who disagrees about the silhouettes being women "misogynist" even if they're other womeni now remember why i don't go to the EN side often, the rsa boys being fully revealed can't happen sooner
Not to start a shipping discourse or something but I wonder why RookVil has such a strong grip over the EN fandom when neither character is a mega fan favorite like Malleus, Idia or Riddle. I don't have anything against this ship and I know there's plenty of homoerotic subtext in their interactions (mostly from Rook towards Vil) but their relationship dynamic is very similar to that between a popular high school girl and her gay bestie or simp to me lol; then again, maybe I have such a narrow-minded view because I never paid too much attention to their relationship.
I'm not a mbtifag by any means but>Ruggie>ESTJHuh???
>>561366726My guess would be because it’s the least “problematic.” Those kinds of people lose their shit at stuff like Leorug, SilSebe, etc, but then turn around and headcanon vil as trans, so rookvil turns into an “exact same age, same social class, heterosexual” relationship. It’s the most normie pairing in Twst that doesn’t use a self insert.
>>561387464>Silsebe>problematicWhy the fuck is this pairing considered problematic?
>>561388856Don’t you know? Silver is 3405 + years older than Sebek! A pedo ship!
>>561389020Tell me you're joking and this is not a legit complaint...
>>561389020>>561390642They're half right. It is considered both a pedoship and incest because they are "sibling coded." According to escaped mental asylum patients.
I just thought of something, we don't know Chenya's birthday, do we? Although the teachers' birthdays were only revealed last year, right?
>>561401216Yup and yup. Chenya and Neige don’t have official profiles. I wonder if we’ll get any for the RSA guys.
>>561404783the rsa guys will start getting stuff once they actually release, right now they're just silhouettes outside of Chenya, Neige, and the dwarves.i'm sure merch, birthdays, and event cards will happen eventually since rsa seems to be our next long term storyline
>>561407058Dropping 7 new guys into the bday rotation would be nuts
>>561417206there's probably some kind of schedule played out for them considering how much time it takes to plan and make a character
>>561418402You think they haven’t been planned and made yet?
>>561420687no, dumbass. i meant that everything for rsa has already been planned and schedule because they'll be new money makers for the gamedisney princesses sell especially in jp, Yana and twst staff likely already have everything from birthdays to future events ready once rsa arc starts
>>561423610Thanks for reiterating points from this same thread over again for the third time
>>561423826you asked, i answered.
Poor souls who just started this game and will go through Igni/Diasonmia
>>561424760Hush now, the adults are talking.>>561425870I wonder if there is going to be a resurgence of people who abandoned their accounts back in 2020/2021 with the delays like >>561127218 was talking about, so they’ll have cards from the first beanfest, maybe the first Halloween, and then nothing else. Asking for team build ideas with beans Azul, Halloween riddle and then suddenly bonbon Sebek or something.
>>561426536There’s too much content to catch up and if I were the one who dropped it back in 2021 and see the numbers of chapters that I need to read to be up to date, I would kill myself
>>561426536>Hush now the adults are talking Do you have any idea how cringey and embarassing you sound? I can't believe anyone would type this shit and think they sound smart. At least that anon actually bothered to answer you.
>>561427552I recently started an EN account actually and it went really quick, quicker than I’d expected. I got stuck at Book 4 for a bit with OB Jamil, but didn’t have any problems in Book 6 or 7. I have to wonder at the people who get stuck on the Book 6 minigames.
>>561428820To this day I’ll sometimes see people saying that the Pegasus one is physically impossible or they can’t get through the boat one no matter how hard they try so they’re just permanently stuck in 6. I kinda want to see them play cause like, on the other hand, how? How does one suck that bad?
>>561427716>bothered to answerThe whole point was it wasn’t a question meant to be answered. I forgot that ann invasion of twt-ards always means cute little misunderstandings like this.
>>560902135 Excuse me, was this link supposed to the concert? Because it isn’t working at all. If you have BJ, please share it through a Google Drive or MEGA!
>>561428820>>561430230Didn’t the lady who makes the music for the game get stuck in the river Styx game, too? I swear I read an interview with her where she was laughing about it. She said she doesn’t know anything about how they’re going to use her music for the rhythm games, either. Oh, speaking of, has anybody tried that new level of rhythmical where there are like four points you gotta hit? Shit looks crazy.
>>561427552Depends on the person I guess, for someone who reads a lot and regularly twst isn't that daunting. I saw a wave of new players on JP lately including some vtubers. Last year someone who started when Swing was first introduced was at ch4 by the time tnbc event actually started. I often see veterans offer friend codes to newbies so they can carry them through fights too it's kinda cute.
>>560928171 Hi! If it’s all right to ask, please share a copy of the BJ concert via Google Drive or some other way! I’d love to be able to watch the full concert!Also, doesn’t the BD/RVD have all the variations for the opening narrative by the NRC staff and Grim? Plus all the different intermissions that lol place during the three-day schedule? It should the other characters doing the MC parts.
>>561430395I don't think you understand that people can't exactly hear a rhetorical question through a written post. I doubt that any of this has anything to do with twitterkeks since hype has died down a lot after RSA's reveal with how short people's attentions span are now.
>>561431251I dunno man looking at >>561430921 and >>561431207 I think someone leaked /twst/ to Twitter again, or tumblr or discord or something. People that need sarcasm markers to tell when they’re being poked at with a stick, that type.
>>561431384>I think someone leaked /twst/ to Twitter again, or tumblr or discord You have got to be kidding me...Can people please for the love of Yana, stop telling normalfags about this general.
I had the sudden thought that maybe Arielman and Brobot might have a bit in common, if the mermaid dude is going to be the prankster type.Oh hey what years do we think everybody is gonna be in? We know Neige is 2nd year. I hope Jasman is a 3rd year. And that warthog/lion/beast guy. I wonder if Aliceman is gonna be a first-year housewarden or if they're gonna make him a 19 year old or something for kicks.
>>561434906I can't even imagine how rsa'rs choose their housewardens. Will they even be called that, or called something else? NRC has Riddle and Leona taking their top spots by force but do rsa guys just like...have a popularity contest?
>>561438712Dance off.

>>561439953>Mikey investigation = more 1st yearsThat was expected of course but damn, sucks for me that this group has to be so plot relevant, I'm tired of 1st years wankfest.
>>561440528>tired of 1st years wankfest.Same. The Chapter 1 was great though, with them mostly side lined while we got Cater/Idia shenanigans. Silver VANROUGE being a dork. Leona suffering through Rook, etc. etc.

>>561442082>>561441461The twt dislike button is going to be a dumpster fire but can't wait to start downvoting that shit. Posting their delusions on official jp account announcements like that, the hell are they doing.
>>561440808The blonde guy flying across the screen as Jamil and Azul ignore him was a top-ten-twst moment of all time for me.
>>561442434Okay, favorite moments in the main story, in the order I remember them not a rankingGuy flying across the screen in 8-1Jamil's running gag of "I see nothing unusual about this" in the mermaid dreamsRuggie being like "for fuck's sake" when people keep commenting on the cheka puppet's voiceAzul being horny on main in ruggie's dreamOrtho and Ortho's "nice to meet you, me" moment in Book 6Malleus' I love youVil's "and that's how Rook and I met" line in book 6, that was a brilliant line reading by Aiba, still one of my favorite bitsAlso Idia's "why are you here--HOW are you here" line in book 6, I rewatch it all the time, Uchiyama is a godLeona's "I'm gonna get you out of here!" promise to Riddle in Book 7Punk Riddle revelationCater's tricking card groovy being sexy as hell. Not really a moment but I can't get over it so here we are.
>>561443650>Jamil's running gagI think it was on Twisted Radio, but his VA made a comment about how he never expected Jamil to be this funny. I wonder if it was something Yana planned from the start or if he just sort of evolved into one of the funniest characters in the game on accident.
>>561119071>we'll never have another beanfest.Late to this party but I'd really like another beanfest. I think that'd be super neat.
>>561440808I much prefer random groups over year-based ones to be honest. People are right to complain about OBs overexposure and bias sure but I feel like the game favors 1st years more? At least OBs are a funny bunch of idiots because they're all giant assholes, I personally don't find 1st years that entertaining and their friendship feels a bit forced outside Ace, Deuce and Grim's.
>>561440528Damn I wasn't even focusing on that I was hyped on seeing Malleus and the rest of dia since doragon and Lilia are supervising the investigation
>>561453869Oh shit, I forgot about Malleus and Diasomnia's involvement in this, now my interest is slightly piqued.
>>561453520>their friendship feels a bit forced The first years feel forced outside of the og trio because Epel, Jack, and Sebek just don't bounce off well with the trio at all. Sometimes their interactions can be nice like Jack is a good straightman but Ace already covers that too.Sebek's best dynamic is with Silver and the rest of Diasomnia but he's annoying with everyone else. I think Epel and Jack have a good dynamic though and it works when it's just the two of them.
>>561460386True. I think Epel and Deuce's friendship is cute and has potential, if only Epel wasn't such a bland and poorly written character. Sebek and Ace's back-and-forth backering can be funny but Sebek's relationship dynamic with Silver/Dia in general clears any of his relations. The only times when I find Jack somewhat interesting/fun is whenever he interacts with Vil (wish there was more emphasis on their shared childhood/friendship) and octa trio (his utter and raw loathing towards them, especially towards Azul is soo funny)

>>561483636JP sisters going to town on that post
Saw someone say that Malriel and Jasman are probably just going to show up for three seconds at the very end of the new chapter drop and I’d believe it. Ambrose being in the thumbnail is sus, what he is doing here. I could honestly go three more chapter just watching training montages, the first chapter was so fun.
>>561529930I hope they speak at least so we can have 2 days of people hyping trying to clock who the vas are before anime japan
Where’s our leaker anon
>>561530784Datamine anon, I wonder if they’re still here. It’s possible that nothing has been put in yet though. Maintenance starts in 25 hours.
>>561530561People doing that for Swing were so funny. Multiple times I saw people crowing about their seiyuu-otaku credentials, saying how they KNOW it’s this-guy, they’d recognize that voice ANYwhere, it is so obviously him. And all of them were wrong.
>>561529930Trein had quite a large role in that part. I wonder if we will be seeing more staff involvement, in addition to the princess-men.
>>561535765I enjoy that the teachers got new animations, it's little updates like that that makes stuff so fun overall.
Is Twitter extremely buggy to everyone else or it's just an issue on my side?
>>561539584Might be bugging out. I keep having tweets just completely disappear while I'm reading them and search isn't working at all
>>561540052Had exactly the same issue but now it's working. Fuck Elon Musk anyway.
I was gonna say "less than 24 hours and all our questions will be answered" but I bet we're just gonna be more confused, I am so excited.
None of the first years are a part of the tournament, are they? Is there gonna be a thing where someone happens to the NRC upperclassmen during the competition and the first years gotta team up with RSA or something? I am no fan of the first years but Epel being bitchy about the dwarves in the sledding event was kinda funny.
>>561547335Judging by this cover, I wouldn't be surprised if your speculation isn't that far off.
>>561548162This is exactly the thing I am worried about. Goddammit yana don't do this to us.
>>561548751>>561547335I like the first year students, I don't understand your criticism. It's not like just because some characters are third year students that they're better written. And I admit I thought it was obvious that all the characters would participate in the tournament, that besides the training, there should be something, some reason that will make the first years important and give them a significant role in this book, which seems to be mainly about first-years + Diasomnia + a little bit about the OB Boys.
>>561547335The worst thing would be the first-year students cooperating with RSA and the drama ends with "we aren't so different after all! maybe we should all be friends!" and the hilarious thing would be the goody-goody characters of Epel, Jack, Sebek and Deuce joining Ortho and Ace on the dark side like "so we had to team up with these guys twisted from heroes and it sucked so much ass, now we know why the senpai are all such bitches, we are sorry we were so annoying and will never complain about underhanded tactics ever again. Now let's go set a car on fire."
>>561550090I do wonder if the older students were also naive and fluffy in their first year. It's kind of amusing to imagine that there is just something about NRC that turns even the most judgemental first-year student into Ruggie by year two. Bad example actually I bet Ruggie was jaded long before he got there.
>>561550090I'm confused. I think it's obvious that all the students will work together with the RSA boys at the end of the book, but especially the OB boys, both heroines and villains, will be featured, all working together against the true enemy of the book. Not the scenario you imagined, but who will be the villain of this book? Crowley? Crowley's mask? Grim? Or will Grim only appear in the next book?
>>561550329Is there anyone though of the upperclassmen who seem like they could have been that self righteous starting out and then got knocked down a peg? From what we've seen in flashbacks Rook doesn't seem to have changed at all. I guess he humbled Vil a bit, based on what Vil said. Oh maybe Silver? Riddle has a one-off comment about how he was a lot like Sebek when he first enrolled. He's not one of the saucier upperclassmen though, hm. Maybe Cater got sassier over time?
>>561550329Best boy was born jaded. First words were "you have got to be fucking kidding me." Best boy.
>>561550090>>561551154Okay the "wholesome" members of the cast learning that sometimes you need to play dirty to get the job done would actually be a pretty good storyline.
>>561547335>something happens to the NRC upperclassmenMaybe that's how they'll handle the ticking clock issue that we've got. There is about one month left in the school year. There is no way they're graduating anyone, so they're going to have to either make that month last until the game goes EoS or pull something that none of see something. Which is something they've done before, admittedly. I've still got whiplash from the change in tone from book 5 to 6.
>>561555749>change in toneThat was such a Yana joke. Same woman who interrupted her own steampunk victorian-england story to write a titanic parody with zombies. And then a sports/shounen spin off. And then a nazi-werewolf fairy tale. And then an idol arc. All in the same timeline.
>>561555749You said it already twst pulls this stuff all the time, it wouldn't be too out there for it if they decide to go against the trope, have them age up and still be relevant and working together somehow. Maybe it's a chance to broaden the world and we have to keep in contact with the 3rd(4th) years through twst discord
>>561550083>I don't understand your criticism. It's not like just because some characters are third year students that they're better written.NTA but it's not like I'm freshmanphobic or something like that, it just happens that most of the 1st years are boring or/and annoying to me.
>>561575087>touching gemsYou motherfucker, this is a blue board!
>>561439953>showed image to my irl friend who also plays twst>"who's that old man">tell them it's from book 5, just assume they forgot>"oh I don't read the main story"I have to wonder how many of people engage with twst beyond looking at the pretty pictures
>>561579981Bet you will see ENtards skipping through the story just to screen cap the new boys and farm interactions
Do you think Alice Boy's outfit will be similar to Ciel's?
>>561582340I see it more frilly
>>561531064overly attached seiyuu fans are funny in a very stupid way. once i saw a thread of people talking about how their primary and only criteria for whether they liked a character or not was the seiyuu. nothing about the appearance, nothing about the personality, just the specific voice actor. and those were western/eng speaking fans. these people are on a different fucking planet. can't tell if they're genuine sheep or something was just formed wrong mentally
>>561579981>>561580761>"oh I don't read the main story">farm interactionsi think this is the majority of en server fans actually. they learn the technique from shitter, where neurons go to die. this is why they constantly mischaracterize the boys in the easiest cardboard-cutout basic anime tropes possible. they make headcanons up in their heads, delude themselves into thinking they're the biggest authority on a character, and start pissing their pants if someone who actually read the dialogue corrects them on the most basic things. eg. those idiot malleus yumes, but there are many such cases
It’s time Cast them (except Neige)
>>561589174Idris ElbaChris PrattIdris ElbaIdris ElbaIdris ElbaIdris ElbaIdris Elba
>>561589134Who has the worst EN fanbase and why is it Malleus?
>>561590648Him, Azul and Idia for sure
>>561590648I agree that Malleus has one of the worst, but sometimes Azul bothers me, and some of the Leona and Ruggie fans, which really irritates me, ignore the Leona/Ruggie ship, and I don't think they have good arguments. Leona isn't really an adult or mature, and the age difference isn't that big.It's not that different from Leona/Vil or Idia/Silver or Trey/Riddle. The way they ignore this ship and dislike it is very irritating, and I think it's stupid.
>>561590957>>561593205>IdiaFor sure. Leona fans are either very funny or very obnoxious, there's no in-between. I haven't seen enough Ruggie to form an opinion but as someone who doesn't ship this, I do agree that LeoRuggie antis are retarded. Azul fans are patronizing and often like they're some kind of fandom police but tweels fans are much worse, ar least from my experience.
>>561594589*Ruggie fans
>>561589174Its kinda hard because for being gachaslop this game has some really out there VA picks (was shocked that they managed to get Hiroki Aiba considering he's only done 2 anime roles ever)Not enough of seiyuufag to try to guess every single one but thinking Kaji Yuuki for Ariel.Mamoru Miyano for either Meg or NalaI'll be laughing for days if Alice is an Alois clone and gets Nana Mizuki. Honestly if anyone is getting crosscast roles its gonna be these guys.
>>561560760I still say it's never going to happen. New guys as housewardens at Savanaclaw, Pom, Igni and Diasomnia? Suddenly the first years have kouhai? The second years are the big guys on campus? It would change absolutely everything and would require redesigns. Epel, Deuce and them are not just assigned first-year roles, they were designed as first-year characters. And no one is allowed to come at me with "but when we have flashbacks it's the same sprites," that is different and you know it, Yana has said straight out that the dev team won't let her do significant sprite changes like that with the exception of vacation!suit crowley.It's not happening. If they aged everyone up we'd be getting a whole knew magic archives with whole knew character design notes about all the subtle things that have changed to adapt everyone to the next school year. Yana isn't some hack, she does shit right.
One of the nice things about the tomodachi demo is getting to see people put the boys into it, shame it's just the demo for now
>>561589134And they get really, really mad when you show them screenshots that contradict their headcanons, or ask them to produce screenshots to prove their point. If you show them in-game content suddenly it's "but you have to read in between the lines!!" aka, "make stuff up to suit my delusions," and if you ask for proof it's "I don't play the game anyway so it's not my fault if I'm wrong." I have legit had more than one person go off on me for that, going into some weird victimization headspace after I asked where exactly in the game the thing they were talking about actually happened. You don't have to be able to quote Azul's 49th quip to Riddle in the middle of Tartarus, you just have to not make stuff up. It shouldn't be that hard. And yet, they struggle so.
>>561602461Sucks to be a poorfag and watch everyone having fun with this
>>561601380Don't forget the whole point of the thing is watching attractive guys interact with each other. Losing the third years to internships would take away the game's whole pull. They're gonna graduate Malleus and Leona and replace them with 16 year olds? That would be an entirely different game.
>>561609979>>561601380I don't think the game will go to the next school year, even though I admit that having cards for the characters with their internship looks could be cool, but sometimes I wonder about the future, the chances of the game having a time skip, Yuu and Grim in about 8 years in the future showing the characters as adults, I admit that sometimes I think about this.
>>561611170Yeah it's interesting to think about but I also think Twst is just gonna pull something complete out of left field. A lot of the discourse I see acts like everyone moving up a year is the only possible option, and I wonder if something complete off the rails is going to happen. The rules are whatever Twst says they are, after all.
Crowley will get hit by a car/criminal charges or something at the end of book 8 and they'll use it as an excuse to be like "uhhh that year didn't count towards your grades you have to repeat it" obviously
Pump
>>561595751>Nana MizukiYou know it never occured to me to look up his VA but she did an absolutely amazing job.I kind of doubt that they'd introduce girl seiyuu, though. If they didn't have a chick voice Ortho, they won't have a chick voice Aloice.
>>561625713They are really doing their best to get male-only VA
>>561594589You know it just occurred to me that Leona fans are a lot like that meme about cat owners are dog owners. Dog owners are like "this is my purebred furbaby who has never done anything wrong in his life his name is Neige and he is a beautiful perfect angel" and cat owners are like "This is Leona, found him behind a garbage can, he's an asshole."
>>561628939>Using Neige as an example when Jack is right thereYou had one job
Three-hour countdown. It is coming. The men-princesses.

>>561580761>farm interactionsI saw one of the big accounts a while back vagueposting like "I miss the days when this account was small and I could say what I liked without it blowing up..." Like girl, no you don't, or you'd delete it and make a brand-new account that no one knew about. Gacha are supposed to be addictive for gamblers but twst is addictive for people who are either literally or mentally neglected 14 year olds who finally found a way to make people pay attention to them.

But where is the Chenya card?>>561590648Malleus EN fanbase are full of delusional yumes that somehow believe this character is good, let them have it, it's not like the character himself isn't delusional too.The worst EN fandom is not Malleus, Azul or Idia, it's Vil. They are ALWAYS those weird dykes/poons that center their life around men and call Vil a girl. Literally that one post saying "I love girls in games but I will never never never never never never never never never play a game with girls in it" and " Headcanons men as women award">>561641332You just know Yana was LIVING while making this character and JP sisters will make years worth of content with him.Meanwhile EN will make soooo much drama around him, enough drama that could rival Kalim discourse.>Thick eyebrowsOh he's sexo>>561641436He's so ugly that he becomes beautiful. This design is a feast.
>>561647091He might get dethroned later but today Mina is the holder of the "did not expect that guy from that silhouette" award, damn. Expectations? Exceeded.
Don’t tell me…Rielle could be voiced by fucking Mamoru Miyano?
>>561641332Minajael's expressions when interacting with Jamil made me kek, bro does not like the snek. >>561646968>The worst EN fandom is not Malleus, Azul or Idia, it's Vil. They are ALWAYS those weird dykes/poons that center their life around men and call Vil a girl. Literally that one post saying "I love girls in games but I will never never never never never never never never never play a game with girls in it" and " Headcanons men as women award"I'll never understand people like this. Like, why ask for women in a husbando game when there's hundreds of gacha with girls already? What is even the point of playing a joseimuke if you're going to demand girls in it when it's supposed to be men made by women for women?
Damn that update was really short. More next month, right?
>>561648612The complaint I've seen is "well there are games with girls but they're not good. This game is good, ergo, I want girls in it."The sassy response is "maybe the lack of girls is why it's so good you silly bitches," but the real response is: that's not twst's fault. It's not twst's fault that games with girls suck, and it's not twst's responsibility to break the mold of "games with girls suck" and be a good game with girls. Because it is a good game with boys. If they want to rally against something, their target should be those shitty games that already have girls in them. They should be demanding quality from the places where girls already are, not demanding girls from the places where quality is. They are literally barking up the wrong tree.But they don't care, all they care about is how people pay attention to them when they soapbox. I suspect a lot of them don't actually want girls at all, and if twst brought in girls they'd just move onto the next thing that gets them engagement. They just want to be mad and for people to tell them that they're right.
>>561649210In defense of girl games, I think the problem is not that girl games are bad, the problem is that girl games target audience doesn't want games with complex characters or shocking twists, they want cute girls doing cute things in cute outfits.The fine example of this is Bandori and its (flop but the music is pretty good) male counterpart Argonavis. Bandori rarely does drama, meanwhile argonavis is, dare I say, twst level of character writing because of how deep their struggling gets, specially my cute shota Shu. JP girl game players want to see cute girls doing cute things, JP boy game players want to see is beautiful men being depressed and suffering.These people want one thing that will never fit in the other.The average girl game suffering is "my sister hates me because I am better than her but I'm too moe to realize this" meanwhile boy game suffering is "I will never be enough in the eyes of god, my entire family killed themselves because they hate me. I put all my suffering in my craft, I hope you don't hate me too. {player}"
>>561650361fellowsis what do you say of mina besides eyebrows, people be saying he's a Leona-Jamil-Fellow mix
How is this artist able to create such high-quality art in such a short time?
>>561647091I liked the dynamic between them, Rielle reminds me of Kalim, they seem like JamiKalim from RSA! But Jamil hasn't learned the lesson from Book 6 and he's already greatly underestimating Minajael in this first test. RSA will win, right? Even though I think Ruggie will surprise everyone and do well, that Jamil and Azul will cause their defeat and show how strong RSA is, and Minajael seems really intelligent, and neither of the princes likes to be underestimated.
>>561653979He's gorgeous but I think that will be it. I don't think they'll have the balls to make the princesses into cunts like our boys are, so they'll naturally feel more vanilla in comparison to the boys. His design is perfect, a beautiful mix of the arab culture and modern clothing, the best translation from the source character ever (of course, that can be changed when the other RSA boys arrive but so far, Mina is the best one.). I hope he has more, but I just don't think they'll have the audacity to give them more sauce so they will feel very bland. Dare I say they will be otome level of mary sue boy? Not a bad kind of mary sue, but the intentional type of mary sue. So perfect that even "rebellious" ones like Mina feel too perfect, I believe that was their intention.
>>561644705Still upset that braid is a scarf and not hair but the belly shirt is slowly making me forgive.If someone told me that I may be willing to open my wallet for anything scarabia adjacent before this I would have thought them delusional. >>561647498He is so gorgeous, Neige is gonna have to bring out the big guns with his dorm uniform otherwise he's a risk of being the most boring of the lot.
>>561648612>I'll never understand people like this. Like, why ask for women in a husbando game when there's hundreds of gacha with girls already?The problem here is you're looking at these people as if they're genuine, as if these requests are made in earnest. They're not. These people don't want girls in twst, they want to impose their will on others. These are young women who will claim to be a man and wish for you to refer to them as such, and then not only make no effort to look or act as a man would, they make negative effort by dressing in hyperfeminine styles and acting in hyperfeminine manners and then have the gall to get upset when you do not entertain their fantasies. This is the crux of the whole modern "headcanon" idea, as well. Once, headcanon referred to fan ideas made to smooth out the gaps and holes in the plot that official canon had left out, plausible and unobtrusive. At some point however this morphed into presentation of blatantly untrue and obviously counterfactual nonsense about a character's race and sexual identity. Is Ace Filipino? Clearly not. Is Vil transgender? Not on your fucking life, no matter which way you slice it it's a flat out wrong interpretation that runs counter to what the game's story says. So why do people say such ridiculous things? As an attempt to impose their wills- and often their own identities- onto these characters.That is the reason they want girls in twst instead of simply picking a game out of the deluge of female character only games, Not out of a genuine desire, but simply for the sake of wanting it.
When Fellow first appeared, we considered him an invasive species in the yume ecosystem. Mina and Nala will be literally this again, I can feel it.
>>561655910RSA will probably get an early lead that leads to a come to Mickey moment for the NRC crew, and then NRC will dual wield the power of friendship (?) and dirty cheating EX to clinch the win.>>561655910Jamil hate makes sense because Jafar did Jasmin dirty in the movie I want a sexy red stripper outfit for Mina thoughAlso what's the consensus on the RSA boys over blotting or not
>>561656736>an attempt to impose their wills- and often their own identities- onto these charactersAt the end of the day it comes down to the same thing. The yumes, the Yuu-ers, the OCers, the people clamoring for women, they are all asking one thing and one thing only: "Why isn't everything about me?"
Ruggiesis what do you think of this?
>>561659298Holy shit. I have a new fanfic to write.
>>561659298Funny, Ruggie/Leona never did it for me but I'm on my knees for pauper x prince forbidden love 2.0. Go on Ruggie go steal your man away from his arranged marriage kek
>people can’t tell this is Nala
>>561647091>>561648534I loved his appearance, but he doesn't really have long hair, does he?
>>561625713To be fair, Aoi Shouta has always been the feminine boy role. I imagine it'll be fucking Ayumu Murase for the next character like that. Since he's also, the designated fem male va now.
Do you think they will reveal the rest of the boys in Anime Japan or they will keep hyping up Mina and Rielle for the next 2 months
How would you rank the RSA boys so far?>>561670992The latter is more likely unfortunately
>>561671456Rielle is a cute girl, I am disappointed about a scarf though Niege still the best
>>561671456I wish we got to see Neige's dorm uniform so I really hope he's up next. I'll reserve my rankings until we get more rsa dorm outfit reveals.
These retards are desperately searching for something to complain about
>>561612698>I wonder if something complete off the rails is going to happen. The rules are whatever Twst says they are, after all.this is my guess as well
>>561648612>Like, why ask for women in a husbando game when there's hundreds of gacha with girls already?it's funny that you ask this, since someone asked the exact same thing on twitter a few weeks back about why lesbians play all-boy character games and then complain about there being no girls, and then got dogpiled hard by twitter lesbians who chronically refuse to stop being retarded and loud. but that's what they do
>>561649210>They should be demanding quality from the places where girls already are, not demanding girls from the places where quality is. They are literally barking up the wrong tree.but they don't, because they know damn well the male fans will attack them like wild dogs. so they choose fanbases made up of fellow women to punch down on because they're easier targets.
>>561656736>As an attempt to impose their wills- and often their own identities- onto these characters.>That is the reason they want girls in twst instead of simply picking a game out of the deluge of female character only games, Not out of a genuine desire, but simply for the sake of wanting it.from what i've seen, i think you're right on the money. i have to wonder where did it all go so wrong in western fandoms to get to the point where we are. early 2010's tumblr?
>>561676245>early 2010's tumblr?Yes, as an oldfag who's been very active there during that period, I can confirm it. I blame the Homestuck and to a lesser extent, Hetalia fandoms for this. Danganronpa too but the damage has already been done by the time it blew up on tumblr.
Hmm, not sure how to feel about RSA's houses being full parallels to NRC's, Megara and Nala just feel weird because while their villains are still hall of fame Disney villains, these two are way more niche Don't get me wrong I like them and Megara is particularly loved but... I dunno And I know I know "this is such a nothingburger issue why are you even posting this"
>>561671456Design-wise:Mina >>> Neige > RielleIt's too early to speak on their personalities but I'm loving how Mina defies the RSA stereotypes that both us the players and NRC hold about them; sees right through Jamil's bullshit and places importance on tactics. Rielle is such a delight so far, I'm not usually a fan of 'sunshine' characters but he's shaping up to be a fun guy. Ironically enough, Neige is the most flat between the 3 of them, I'm waiting to see more of him before deciding whether I like him or not.
>>561680780Just find funny the irony that this is male-only school and its historical figures are just young girls.
>>561691941I'm honestly surprised by the color of Snow White's dorm, why red?
>>561695771Snow white was described as having skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood and hair as black as ebony. I'm going to make a guess the lips as red as blood part is why
>>561695771What do you mean why red, the poison apple is the most famous part of her story after the dwarves >Asian artists already whitewashing MinaFor fucks sake the melanin is half his appeal.
>>561696407Speaking of, I legit saw someone today asking why Neige, the character twisted from snow WHITE is so... white.
Do you like hijab Mina?
>>561697382Yes, he's sexy and intelligent, and it's clear that Jamil is underestimating him. With his arrogant personality, whatever Jamil is planning won't work!
>>561702825The callback to Jamil’s conversation with Leona was so great, he’s gonna do his best to prove himself, that’s character development for my boy, heck yeah.
>>561697336To be fair he's so damn pasty it's making Rielle's non-corpse skintone look a bit uncanny next to him kek
>>561687906People have said before that that's the cool thing about twst. No one would blink if the guys talked about deifying a bunch of historical men all the time, but because they talk about ursula and meg sometimes there's a kind of weird feeling about it, since it's so rare for people in the real world to be so openly proud of their respect for historical women. The whole "in this men's dorm we respect the accomplishments of a sleepy blonde lady and that is a completely normal thing to do in this AU" thing is great.
>>561709503If he seduces jamil and therefore wins their little competition I swear to godDo it mina. Do it. Do it. Do it do it do it do it the poor guy is so repressed. It will not be difficult.
>>561709503SLUTTY LITTLE RED OUTFIT W H E NCome on Yana you know you want to
>>561710565I bet his character pages in her notebooks are 95% slave-outfit mina. and then some doodles off to the side of what became his final, killer character design.
>>561709503EN parasites are bashing the artist in the quotes for enabling 'orientalism' btw
Don’t tell me there will be parallels of this now that their counterparts are a thing
>>561711239Now suddenly there’s an influx of Arabs complaining about his name https://x.com/devln_4/status/2037504372553257028?s=46
>>561712180Not gonna click it nope nope nope. I refuse. Literal garbage humans who do shit like that.
>>561712365Did you see the thing about twitter rolling out the ability to block replies from people in certain countries? Can't get here fast enough.
>>561675520This is freaking cute. I like the Mina: babysitter of toddler rielle thing way better than the jamil: babysitter of toddler kalim thing.
>>561715947The funniest thing would be if Rielle is such an airhead that even Kalim is thrown off. "No wait if you do that you will literally set yourself on fire--" And suddenly we got Kalim-babysitter-of-Rielle. Yesss.
>>561674023Technically Tiana came first. It's just that she was mentioned in dialogue before she was seen, but she was first. She never wanted to be a princess anyway, she wanted to be an entrepreneur. She achieved her dream and princesses as a side gig, I dunno why Twst, the game of "dreams and wishes are the source of all magic," would ignore all that. I realized that I am preaching to the choir here though.
>>561719020>the game of "dreams and wishes are the source of all magic"The shit at the beginning of 8-2 with Mickey was so cringe I started skipping through the dialogue. I love how basically no one is talking about it. Maye they knew it was a nothingburger and that's why they glazed over the mouse info-dump with stuff we actually care about, ie more gorgeous men.
>>561721357Nobody really cares about Yuu nor Mickey. Grim at least will play a huge role at the end with his chimera form.
>>561705893>that artstyleHas the artist drawn the other rsa boys yet?
>>561722668Watching it I realized that EN is gonna get spoiled on Anni 6 Grim haha. And sleepwear Malleus and Lilia and probably a few of the others, depending on how long they drag their feet on releasing it. But there is no way they're gonna wait two years for Grim's anni sprite. Or maybe they'll just use old sprites like they did for Ortho's clubwear? It was before Vargas' new movements came out on EN, so JP outdoorwear Ortho has Vargas doing a all his new poses and facial expressions, but EN outdoorwear Ortho has Vargas just standing there and staring at the camera.
>>561683620>RSA stereotypes People really out here forgetting Chenya exist or that our only other exposure to RSA students have been a grand total of Neige (whom we barely know) and the dwarves. The dwarves aren't airheaded either, they're just nice and immediately don't assume the worst of others when they meet them except for maybe grumpy.
>>561716194if the reason why Rielle and Mina are friends is because Rielle reminds Mina of Kalim that would be super cute
>>561723170I believe she only takes commissions and she has drawn porn of Idia/Leona and I think Vil/Mal. This is the first time she actually draws something for twst on her own.
>>561724735Not surprised she drew Rielle, she's a massive ArielfagHope she draws the rest of rsa since they all seem right up her alley
>>561725348Wait until twst Megara is revealed, that will drive her insane too.
Will Yana be brave enough to add this scene with twst Nala and Leona? https://youtu.be/CgqcxYB5brM?si=w268Ey7Ywq54aMhJ
>>561723524Curious, is it common for people who play en twst to be somehow completely detached from twst jp news? That's actually quite impressive to me since jp tweets like crazy. Kinda assumed that en twst players will follow along jp news too for the heads up on what to pull
>>561730032some EN players don't even read the story and just pull when they see a pretty new card, i wouldn't be surprised if they don't interact with anything from jp
>>561730032>>561730679They barely interact with other ENers, let alone JP. They don't care what other people are saying, they just want people to look at what THEY are saying, as the main character of the universe. It's why they don't use tags, or use ALL of the tags. They don't want people to be able to filter them out.
>>561730856You just have to be very gentle when explaining JP tags to Westerners. Tell them, "This tag will make it easier for people to find your content," and they might not make the connection on their own, but say outright, "Not everyone wants to see your content, so this tag will make it easier for people to avoid you," and they will take it as a personal offense.
>>561730032It's kind of hard to judge how much is common sense to know for people on EN. I am constantly seeing people saying that the bon-bon series is "JP exclusive content" because they don't know that EN is two years behind but they know JP has cards that EN doesn't, so they make up a narrative in their head about how EN is treated unfairly when, in reality, they are getting the exact same content at the exact same pace. But asking "why do you think EN is timed with JP birthdays when the server was launched two years later?" sounds mean, cause apparently it's just not common sense over there.I have also seen people claiming that bon-bon isn't a birthday series at all it's a JP-exclusive event, for some reason. They really will say just anything, and when they're corrected it "well sorry I don't play the game," and we're back to >>561579981.
>>561735371Kinda unrelated but I have corrected two different people in the past week who were spreading misinformation about Japanese and both times they were like "well I haven't studied it in forever though" and "well I don't use it at all, so," and I was just like...if you know so little about the language that you are making basic mistakes while trying to explain things to other people, why are you trying to explain things to other people? You literally don't know what you're talking about, and you KNOW you don't know what you're talking about, and you're coming in here like "ackshually" anyway?Sounds like it's the same pattern on en twst. These people who don't know the characters or Yana or play the game are answering questions that they don't actually know the answers to. And it's like, why. Not every question on the internet is aimed at you specifically. If you don't know a thing you are welcome to keep your mouth shut.
What could have been.
Mina is just everywhere I look today, it is amazing, keep it coming.
Neige is so unaware of the world around him kek, i can't wait for him to fight Vil
>>561738015It's the average internet thing of "big discussion about something is happening so i want in on it for attention" even if they don't know shit. Look at all the people who don't play twst but see that it has pretty anime guys as the main cast and immediate label it an otome game then proceed to tell other idiots who don't know what twst is and call it an otome game. That's how we ended up with all these confused and entitled yumes going into twst believing they can date the boys, only to realize they can't and Yuu has no romance with anyone so they complain. I have nothing against yumes or otome games but the amount of people that keep acting like every character is secretly in love with Yuu is weird. I feel like chink harem protag centric gachas have brainrotted newfags, and don't get me started on all the "lesbians" begging for women in a joseimuke.
>>561746163I blame EN's marketing, too. In the early days they absolutely marketed it as an otome. I guess the idea was "If we get 100 otome game players and only 90 of them quick upon realizing the bait and switch, that's a success." Most likely, though, they simply do not know what women want. "Chicks like chick flicks and shit, right? Girly-girl romances about being swept off their feet? That is the one and only thing girls are interested in and here we've gotta sell them some magical adventure, fighting/rhythmic visual novel with zero romance in it? Fuck. Guess we gotta lie our asses off boys, cause the only thing girls are interested in is being fucked by men, but none of these men are gonna fuck 'em."EN made this bed, but we're the ones that have to lie in it.
>>561746163Man I've always wondered about the weird percentage of people in the fandom who don't seem to even like it here, but I think you hit on the exact issue. People go in with the wrong idea and instead of seeing themselves out, they decide to stick around and bitch about it, as if it's somehow the game's fault that it is what it is. "Waah what about me, I mean Yuu? What about me, I mean female characters?"
>>561747449Yeah, twst's marketing for it's early days were pretty bad but I feel like it was before gacha really became mainstream in the west so EN companies would advertise on what they assumed the market would be, unlike in JP where joseimuke that aren't otome are common and people know the differences. To this day we still have people assuming every single joseimuke is an otome game because EN fandoms think "all-male cast = otome game". They even misuse the term, like I've legit had someone call a yaoi game a "yaoi otome" and immediately wanted smack myself. Twst is lucky that the EN fanbase is just a minority whose dramas are contained to just EN since JP is the main audience and the bigger part of the fanbase.
>>561748106I think a lot of the whining and demanding is likely from people who don't even play the game, we even have anons here mentioning how they're people playing twst without reading the story. And self-insertfags have always been obnoxious when they play a game and realize they aren't the center of the universe. That can be blamed on so many gacha these days having "mc centered narrative" where the entire plot revolves around the mc and everyone loves them. Twst was written before this became the norm for current gacha.
>>561748220>yaoi otomeDear lord.>the EN fanbase is just a minority whose dramas are contained to just ENPraying to Crowley that it stays that way. A little cautious of the anime, since they caved and removed Sam's makeup and all that, but at least the game has stayed true to itself no matter what people say in English.
>>561748495One of my biggest fears is that they'll change it up and actually make the player relevant. I hate that we have to poke little dialogue boxes every 10 minutes, it ruins the immersion. The characters mentioning the player in dialogue always feels like sesame street. "What do you think, Yuu?" (silence) "Wow! That's a great idea!"I don't want a "choose your own adventure!" children's book, I want to read about catty men interacting with cattier men and they all hate each other. Thus far the game has been pretty good about it, but every time I see "Yuu should be more involved in the main story!!" propaganda I want to stab myself. No one cares about you(yuu) except cringey, self-obsessed self-shippers who are playing the wrong game. It might've been the marketing department's fault that they got here, but they're the ones who chose to stay.
>>561748495>anons here mentioning how they're people playing twst without reading the story.Trying to imagine a day in the life for a person like that. Do they log on to xitter, confirm that no, there still haven't been any female characters added to the husbando game they have never played, vague post about misogyny and congratulate themselves for standing against the patriarchy? It is fascinating to consider.
>>561749118We've gone 6yrs without Yuu being the main narrative focus. I think we'll be fine.
>>561748495>I think a lot of the whining and demanding is likely from people who don't even play the gameIt's true. For example, the one who said this (and whose post even went viral) >>561674023 has admitted that they don't play Twst and is only familiar with Idia.
>>561749687How funny would it be if the guy we chose at the beginning of the game suddenly became relevant. All of us telling new players "nah the hand you choose or whatever doesn't matter you just get their SR" and then 6 years later it's like "the climactic final battle against an overblotted crowley-grim-mickey-mouse chimera and the only cards you can use are for the guy from the opening, good luck with that."
>>561749836That is especially annoying because when you go at people like that with "If you hate it so much then go do something else?" they hit you with "I don't play the game" and there is just no response to that. Like really? Then what are you even doing here? Get out of my house.
>>561748614>yaoi otomeEvery guy bi and the player gets to choose between plain old straight sex or sit in the cuck chair to watch the guys fuck kek
Yoinked subtitles. This is the intermission with Idia and Leona. Three-day download.https://we///tl/t-3n5Dkw4mAgvG3B8g
I can see the new guys getting unreasonably popular and then staying that way just because there is so little we know about them that they can't disappoint anyone, and it will probably stay that way, cause I highly doubt we're ever getting even a percentage of the depth to them that we have to the main guys.
>>561753987>so little we know about them that they can't disappoint anyoneThe headcanons-claimed-to-be-fact are already starting. I saw an "analysis" by someone of Minajael's character explaining how he is obviously very humble, or maybe very polite, but most likely both. I need a reaction image that is just "You made that up."
>>561751927I've mentioned this before, but I still don't know how this link works, how to download it, and everything else.
>>561753987I've seen the oddest pearl clutching over made-up fears that the RSA cast is going to replace NRC cast and the game will no longer be about heroes. I kind of want to encourage those rumors just because it is so ridiculous. Just like "Yeah, totally. They thought they could get more money by focusing on the princesses so it's Twisted Princesses now, they're going to start retiring Malleus and Vil and all them and change the entire basis of the game, because that makes sense."
>>561758219 same fag>no longer be about heroesno longer be about villains.
I dig the 'Rielle has a one-sided crush on Azul and is totally oblivious to him having a shitty personality' headcanons
>>561755489>MinajaelThat is a sexy fucken name and I don't care what anybody says
>>561758631Can you read that anon? It's rielle saying "you look way cooler than you did before" kekHe's going around JPsisters as popular for having zero delicacy and saying straight out "you have changed a LOT," and all that implies.
>>561758964Kek 0 social awareness whatsoever. Now I wonder if he was even aware that Azul was getting bullied by their classmates.
>>561759068Any follow up on those freaks that were saying that Rielle was one of Azul's bullies? I saw a surprising number of them before the chapter drop. I wonder if they're retreating back into their octopus pots after seeing what Rielle is actually like in the actual game they are presumably playing.
>>561755489>HumbleDid they miss the translation tweets because it's obvious that just like Jasmine he's headstrong as fuckThough I'd 0.1% of twitter takes are decent. Agree with whoever said says his UM is seeing someone's true heart/thoughts
>>561760097It was cause he told Jamil to stop referring to him as 王子. But that's not "oh my, please no, I am but a humble student no different from any commoner, I beseech thee," that is "for the love of fuck Jamil you know I hate that because I am based on a princess who hates that and you are fucking with me on purpose you goddamn bastard." Especially with the way he talks. My guess is the "analyzer" doesn't actually know any jp and was going based off of watered down summaries by people who probably also don't know jp and were summarizing off auto translations. Blind leading the blind.
>>561724735>Vil/MalPlease tell me this is in their twitter somewhere because I have a mighty need. And everyone who's saying they're going to go crackers over Megara is bang on kekIn other news loving the influx of Yuu falling for the RSA siren song kek
>>561760961Best one of the lot
We need more Rielle
>>561760961Is it me or Koreans have been more present in twst for the past few months?
>>561761628I've been seeing a lot of KRsis content too. They can be hilarious, all are welcome.Case in point, link cause it's animatedhttps://x.com/buuufg/status/2037484407771303952
>>561760961>Please tell me this is in their twitter somewhere because I have a mighty needhttps://files.catbox.moe/xk2qef.jpgI had it lying around
>>561758219are there genuinely people who believe that rsa is going to somehow replace the nrc boys? the literal main cast and faces of the game for 6yrs? because that sounds insane and i have no idea what makes them think that will happen, rsa are definitely getting cards and merch tho
>>561768529Kek I was about to post this fanart too
>>561768529>RSA realize NRC is finally locked in so resort to weaponising homosexualityNot that I'm complaing.
Do rsa boys have their own prince in their respective dorms
>>561771150>people have waited years for Rielle to interact with Azul>fanart is already flowing in like crazy from one interaction Now I kinda understand why tweelfags were so paranoid about Rielle becoming the more popular ship choice for Azul. What are the likely chances of a ship war between the fishfags?
>>561773653azul will be claimed by Rielle by the end of their segment and it’s all over for fishfags
>>561773653Japanese IdoAzu and IdiAzu fans can co-exist peacefully despite both being popular ships so I don't think ship wars will occur on this side. EN polyfish fujos seem pretty chill too but I can easily see Rielle and Mina getting dragged into the JamiKali vs JamiAzul ship war.
>>561774141Idia will have Meg tho
>>561774554>Inb4 they turn Meg into a shotacon for Ortho and Idia is jealous (of who? that's up for interpretation)
>>561774726This is Nala! I can see Nala being a good friend who usually takes care of and spends time with Cheka, and who doesn't like Leona very much and thinks Leona is rude to Cheka. Do you think Nala Boy will have a connection with Cheka? After all, the author is Yana, right?
>>561778480Will he be an ara ara wife (male) like Vil
>>561758964It's true that when Rielle meets Azul, his line is the same as when Eric meets human Ariel, asking if they've met before, that he's familiar.
>>561774726Meg's probably going to be a Hercules fusion dance, the jockiest jock who ever jocked. Could probably crush Iida's skull in with a single finger.
>>561782353Imagine his UM is turning him into a Jack tier body type
>>561767078nice
>>561782353I can see him being a cynical jock (kind of like Leona) who's had bad luck with people in the past and is pretty much friendless now (so he can have something in common with Idia)
>people were claiming there was no way the prince shaped silhouette could be Neige even though it has Neige's exact hairstyle >turns out Neige is the leader of his dormI don't understand why there was so much cope on the silhouette being a new character when Neige is literally Snow White, it would make sense he's wearing an outfit that pays homage to the prince from the movie.
>>561785967Quote the anon who was adamant to believe that was Neige
>>561782353Feels like I've gone back in time because this guy has got all the artists I haven't seen since COVID back on my tl again
Nips really need to gatekeep their content, I knew Mina reveal would trigger those noisy ENers but I did not know it would attract Arabs out of nowhere and complain about his clothing and curse Yana. She’s not at her fault that Aladdin was made like that and she’s just putting her creativity on it.
>>561761536Interesting that Azul says he doesn't remember Rielle being someone so cheerful, lively, and energetic, and I also wonder what his hair would look like underwater. I saw some Japanese people saying that his hair probably won't be so red, it would be more like black.
>>561801173>I saw some Japanese people saying that his hair probably won't be so red, it would be more like black.They're quoting Floyd. He says that during the deserted island arc.
>>561774139Absolutely, the seven as my witness Rielle WILL kiss the boy
>>561808036Anons of this shipPleaseTell meWho tops
>>561809384>genki disney princess himbo vs villainous tentacle boyfailure Rielle impregnates, it's not even a competition at this point.
>>561809384Rielle of course, Azul isn't allowed to top
>>561810532See that has always been my thinking too, but then the IdiAzu people come in and make some good points, mostly because Azul topping is impossible but Idia topping is inconceivable.
>>561809384By now you should know that the only time Azul only ever comes out top when is when he's up against another bottom >>561810845
>>561810845Idia is a bigger boyfailure than Azul but at least he's taller, has bigger hands and looks slightly less feminine than Azul despite his lips being blue. He's also extremely rich and comes from a very influential family so there's that too I guess.
>>561811545Idia being the only person with huge feet and yaoi hands will never not be funny. It's clearly an artistic choice, it's not like Yana can't draw hands, she draws some of the sexiest hands known to humankind. It's not a limitation of her skill to draw him with huge gorilla hands, it is 100% an intentional choice. He is the only one. Just Idia. It is so funny.
