Do you read them? I started reading .jpg related because of that one anon who loves it so much. I find it very soothing so far.
However this is not a thread for only this one, but for visual novels in general. I thought the board was kind of missing one.

Finished reading uta 1 recently, now I'm planning to read MoD and experience Kuon's story at last. I hope the older cast make a relevant appearance in both sequels. Karalau in particular was my favourite character, it's a shame what happened to her VA

There is a bonus section where you can replay previous scenes in uta 1, I assume a similar feature is also present in the other games
Alternatively, you can extract the game files with something like garbro and view the cgs directly, although I doubt that would be enjoyable without the dialogues, music, etc. Video recording is probably your best bet

Excellent! Feel free to make a thread about reading it with updates and opinions! I'd love to read and comment on it! (but I understand if you don't want to) Something I need to point out is that the the first part of the duology (Utawarerumono 2/Mask of Deception/Itsuwari no Kamen) has a lot of casual slice-of-life stuff in it. It establishes the world and grows you closer to the characters, but not everyone has a willingness to spend 15 hours reading that stuff until it gets serious. The cooking parts are a common complaint, but you could turn on the Skip option to allow you to skip ahead of stuff you haven't read. It has the same "home base" selection stuff that the first one did, so when you see Kitchen you know what you're going to get.
But, as I've said before many times around kissu, I think Aquaplus are the undisputed lords of charm, emotion and character stuff in general. You will smile, laugh, and of course cry. I could read these all day.
Oh, and
DO NOT WATCH THE OP FOR THE THIRD ONE! (Mask of Truth/Futari no Hakuoro)
The spoilers in it are ridiculous. I don't know why creators do this, but skipping the opening has been an ingrained action of mine for a couple decades now for a reason.

Dang, it didn't work on Utawarerumono 2. I assumed it wouldn't, but that's still a bummer. I'd love to have access to source images not just of the portraits but also the UI since it's so good. I guess I have to do things the hard way with screenshots and editing.

Have you seen the storytime generals on 4/a/? I ended up checking out the ShimSim one after the manga ended and it looks like a qualitatively new thing. A new historical epoch.
They're basically a chain of chapter dumps, sustained by a dedicated OP and a group of people interested in reading whatever manga manages to get traction, a notoriously rare thing to happen. At the end, the OP may announce what they're going to dump next, and the community will move on to that as well. They differ from regular ol' dumps in that they carry around in-jokes and all that as well as getting perpetually bumped and remade like a standard general. Right now there's even some friction between /tkmiz/ and the storytime's community, mainly over the former's liberal use of spoilers.

It's like, rather than a segregated topic growing a micro-community, it's a micro-community hopping from topic to topic. Turned the whole thing on its head.

I feel an intrinsic disgust at insular generals from my years of browsing several other boards, but in /vt/'s case the hostility to "catalogniggers" or tourists makes perfect sense to me. I don't think I've ever seen a board with more clearly divided cultures. The kinds of discussions in /#/ (numbers) or drama threads vs many of the smaller generals are incredibly different. And since the only form of interaction many of those generals' regulars have with the rest of the board is having to deal with random shitposters, I'm sure most of them would prefer not to be on /vt/ at all.

>I'm sure most of them would prefer not to be on /vt/ at all
The majority of general posters on any board would be happier having their discussions elsewhere. A site that isn't constantly deleting their threads and having board events shaking things up and forcing them to bump more rapidly would make things a lot easier on them. Even when the mods take their side, forcing all discussion of their topic into their thread and deleting anything that takes up board space unnecessarily, the inherent structure of an imageboard conflicts with what they're trying to do. This can again be compared to people who jump through hoops to write long blogposts on Twitter or creators who complain about demonetization on YouTube. They would be better off going somewhere that is built for their style of community, but they refuse to leave even when a better option is available because they want visibility at all costs.

>This isn't literature, this is fucking blogging
~ /lit/erati No.9221795, March 10th, 2017

I learned recently that there's a blog thread on /lit/. A real, proper, flesh-and-blood aimless blog thread: the "write what's on your mind" general, which, somewhat surprisingly, somewhat unsuprisingly, encompasses even more that the average blog thread. There's a lot of people describing their general state and and ideas rather than the banana they ate. More meditations and discussions over it, and emotional stuff, but still a lot of regular blogs.
It looks like it has been a thing since at least 2015, being remade anywhere from the next day to a couple weeks later:
https://warosu.org/lit/?task=search2&search_text=write+%22on+your+mind%22&search_op=op&search_ord=old
Technically the abbreviation WWOMYN goes back to 2017, but it only really took off as the subject in 2021, and in 2022 it began to be regularly labeled /wwoym/.

It made me ask, are there any other boards with blog generals? Not generals that became blogs or which have blogs pertaining to a project (like those of /fit/), but which work by design as a catch-all for whatever comes to mind. After going throught all of them, I found that /cgl/ has a "feels thread" (the current one got immediately "derailed" by tfwnogf), /adv/ has a kind of vent thread you sometimes see in forums, the "get it off your chest" /GIOYC/ thread, and if you discard blogger universalism in favor of narrowing down the demographic then there's also /lgbt/'s gay/lesbian/etc generals, /r9k/'s /r9gay/, and half of /int/. I don't think that really counts as having a topic.

But furthermore, when reverse-searching some specific terms I learned that there also blog threads in leddit! /r/anime specifically, and they call it the "casual discussion friday thread". They have a link in the sidebar that should send you to the newest one: https://redd.it/1ffh71m
"Casual" here means that you can say anything you want, interestingly enough. Though the OP comes adds some caveats. It's peculiar in that its comments are automatically sorted by new rather than best, meaning upvotes effectiPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

You know people like to go on and on about how villains make a piece of media and whatnot, writing endlessly about them to the point you'd think the heroes are irrelevant. But that's not true, the heroes can be just as pivotal as the villains to a great story, and possibly even more of a driving force behind how beloved a series is. The connection is just more important and thus more complicated for most writers to comprehend how to make the audience truly root for a hero.

 No.133154

It's because usually a proactive villain defines the conflict, and that conflict then defines the reactive hero.
You know, da jokah starts some shit and batman goes after him, an ancient evil awakens and yuusha must search for the mcguffin, aliens attack and humanity puts up a resistance. It's the antagonist that starts off by imposing themselves upon the world and setting the terms of... whatever it is is happening. So the aliens oughta be good. Guts is a great protagonist, but he wouldn't be who he is without the immense adversity he's forced to face, and most importantly without Griffith, one of the most reviled characters ever. There's a ton of examples where the antagonists are some cardboard cutouts that don't get fleshed out and nobody cares about them, but it's the endearing ones that make things dramatically more interesting.

 No.133155

Part of that could also be the recent (as in last decade) reaction to villains in popular media being wet noodles. They talk about how important a good villain is because nearly every big name movie and TV show nowadays has milquetoast forgettable villains barely qualifying as an antagonist.
Villains exist to give the heros contrast.

From pointy sticks to plasma cannons, what are you favorite weapons in real life or fantasy? Weapons are more than just implements of destruction, they represent the culture and time period around them, and many cultures find certain types to be sacred or at least ceremonial. In fantasy they can similarly be an important part of worldbuilding, or more importantly just be really cool. Even wizards often need a good item in their hand to cast their magic.

I've seen that guy posted elsewhere on the internet before (years ago) and his humor really never clicked for me. I remember him as some happy-go-lucky guy that looked like he was 12 so it's weird to see him with a beard and long hair being serious. He reminded me of silly 00s internet humor, although a bit dated by the time he did it. So it's a whole movie of unlinked skits or something? I don't know how the suicide clips relates to an internet song.
Comedians swerving into serious territory isn't something I generally like too much. I've never really seen any of them do it well, they seem to add humor where it shouldn't be and can't take things seriously enough, perhaps because they feel pressured to perform due to their reputation and career. There's the saying about the jester being the only one allowed to speak truth in front of the king (or however that went), but I don't think it really applies to most of these people.

>So it's a whole movie of unlinked skits or something?
Essentially, yes. Typically 3-5 minute scenes, but some are really short, less than 30-45 seconds. I wouldn't call them "skits." There's not really any punchlines. They're all loosely connected in that they're about isolation and alienation. The film is set during the COVID lockdowns and, according to the film, Bo never leaves his house for nearly a year, and doesn't until the very end whereupon he's locked out and wants to go back inside. This was probably my favorite scene. It was completely out of left field, but it's amazing in recreating the exact sort thing he's critiquing.

>I don't know how the suicide clips relates to an internet song.
Between the scenes you would consider "worth watching", are shots of the disorganized and cluttered room Bo lives in. They're moments where you can faintly glimpse into the mind of the author and empathize with the same feelings during the pandemic of loneliness, and cabin fever. Maybe these concepts don't translate well to an audience that wasn't bothered during the pandemic and not being able to go outside or interact with people...

File:Death in Venice (1971) Cri….jpg (505.26 KB,1920x1632)

Death in Venice is the kind of film that people think cinephiles go wild for.

It's about a troubled artist that goes down to the titular city for a vacation and runs into a boy so incredibly beautiful that it fucking destroys him. You'd be tempted to compare this to Lolita, but it's a totally different story: the two never interact, it's more about the mental state of the guy and his reaction to the sublime (done through commendable acting), as well as a depiction of a luxurious setting at the same time that a cholera outbreak begins to tear it down. But it's very hard to say that anything happens, it's mostly walking around in very normal situations with only a couple scenes where the guy actually talks about what he's thinking, there's no narration or anything. Ultimately, he drops dead from cholera, sitting in a chair at the beach, unceremoniously.

One review Wikipedia quotes says that some shots "could be extracted from the frame and hung on the walls of the Louvre or the Vatican in Rome" and given how much they have been reproduced and reposted (particularly those from pic's scene) I absolutely agree. I downloaded the book it comes from and found its rebuttals quite funny:
>Other critics afflicted with private blind-spots have called Death in Venice boring, tedious, slow, devoid of action, pointless, without catharsis, etc. All of which, I humbly suggest, indicates more about the shallowness and obtusity of the individual critic than about the intrinsic qualities of this superior film.
>Death in Venice is not a story about a pretty teenager and a dirty old man. It is superficial to carp about "nothing happening,” "lack of confrontation,” "absence of catharsis.” For here we are faced with a complex and sophisticated mood piece, relentless in its pursuit of esthetic truth. The boy and the man never converse; why should they? Their unique communion is not based on the banalities of social intercourse, nor is it founded on coarse physicality.
Lol, lmao even. It's not wrong, but, you know, it's not a film I would recommend to anyone ever. He also downplays the homosexuality in favor of more abstract ideals, that part I do disagree with. Ebert's review is better.
I also watched a 2021 documentary where they explain how he was impacted by it and the situation in general, how a kid was given global fame and thrust into a situation he didn't understand while Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Do people really not take note of the OST of anime/games while enjoying them? I find it really hard not to notice since the sound in media I find to be one of the more important facets of its enjoyability. Like take this scene from the most recent episode of Nige Jouzu for instance, the OST during bursts with obvious Lupin influence and it makes sense given that Tokiyuki's playing thief and also making his big escape during the scene. The bombastic more samba-ish style fits very well with it and provides a more exciting scene due to it. If it weren't there and it was just some normal epic orchestral soundtrack the difference would be astronomical I feel. You wouldn't have the same lighthearted adventurish feeling to the scene that relays Tokiyuki's own emotions.

Similarly in something like SH2 after Pyramid head kills Maria after you make your escape without her, this plays https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcsySeJSVD0 . It's somber and slow, amplifies the guilt James feels and forces you to dwell on your actions even if it's one of the parts of the game that can't be avoided, you don't know that. The impact wouldn't linger as long without the OST pulling you back into it.

So I really have to wonder if people that say they don't notice actually don't notice, or if they just don't think too much on it.

I'd like to see Greg Egan's Orthogonal trilogy adapted into an anime.
The setting is a universe with an alternate law of physics whose consequences include that
¥ light of different colours travels at different speeds and there is no maximum speed of light
¥ liquids largely don't exist as a state of matter, they're all explosively unstable
¥ temperature acts weirdly (I didn't quite understand it from the books and Greg's website but it seems like the characters use gases as a way to dump arbitrarily high amounts of heat energy from their bodies)
¥ the direction of the arrow of time is determined by local conditions (entropy I guess) and in the greater 4-dimensional universe, the worldlines of objects can go in any direction. You can be hit by a tiny meteorite whose worldline is perpendicular to yours, which you will experience as something traveling infinitely fast, punching a great hole through your stuff and massively damaging it
¥ related to the above, it's possible for time-reversed matter to interact with ordinary matter and both see time running backwards (e.g. objects reforming from a broken state) for the other
and more.

The consequence of the alternate physics most important to the plot is that it is possible for a spacecraft to accelerate away from a planet so that it is travelling infinitely fast, i.e. 'sideways' in 4D space relative to that planet, then turn around and return, such that a short time passes for the planet's inhabitants but many generations pass on the spacecraft. (In our universe, it's the other way around, a lot of time can pass for Earth but the spacecraft ages less)
The plot is a multi-generational drama centered on precisely such a spacecraft, which the inhabitants of the planet built to buy time against a world-ending catastrophe.

Now, a problem I have with Greg Egan's books is that I never really like the characters, I'm only there for the math and physics. The characters tend to be annoying, unlikeable 'Young Adult protagonist' snarkers, and I never care about their stupid emotional problems. The plots mostly aren't interesting to me (Orthogonal's plot is one of his better ones, he successfully portrays the epic scope of tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

this in particular seems pretty fucking trippy
like, how does regular matter interact with time-reversed matter? because of course there's a lot of stuff surrounding the broken object and only one part of a person going back in time i figure it'd really fuck them up
>Now, a problem I have with Greg Egan's books is that I never really like the characters, I'm only there for the math and physics.
kinda sounds like it's the same for him, seeing as he has a hundred thousand words on the topic but i can hardly find anything about worldbuilding, writing characters, or the like

I am a pioneer. One must find new places and tame the untouched virgin wilds. It wont do to explore already plundered temples.

That is to say, I aint about sticking it where someone else's been.

If the guy before you had a smaller penis then it's gay until you penetrate further than he did and then it's straight again.

If you have to pay a woman for sex that is pretty fucking gay.

There are no guy acts, just gay thoughts. Intention is key. If fucking a man's ass while thinking about pussy is gay, then masturbation is also gay

Zippyshare will shut down by the end of this month.
I think the impact is limited since it's meant as temporary file hosting, but a small number of files have survived for much longer due to continued downloads.
If you know some old files you want on Zippyshare like those on some DDL sites, download them now.

On the other hand, if Mediafire was to go down, the impact would be much larger since lots of files on it are now over a decade old. The same can be said for Mega due to the huge amount of files shared on it.

>When I went to startup phase 2, I discovered a most dishonest and hate filled group. I learned that I had been dehumanized for a very long time. My personal details had been given out. Secret deceitful plots had been made to cut me out, and drop a bomb like I am a target to destroy
And this is why the internet would be better off if all people like that were to drop dead

There were people always saying "just post the nhentai link d00d" "use nhentai it's just better" "they even host all the fakku stuff panda doesn't". I am vindicated in my choice to not make it my main source of hentai.

Because there's one huge difference in how they've operated.

People knock on Ex for it, but they do respond to takedown notices.

that's a courtroom defence. It would be brought up in court alongside a set of other evidence

What's with the recent influx of shows using these anime-character-on-real-background OPEDs? I can't help but associate the style with 2000s DeviantArt teens, so it feels strange to me that we've had four or five of them in the last couple seasons.

Do you like the style or does it feel as out of place as the aforementioned internet posts always did?

canNOT believe no one's mentioned karekano although i doubt they were specifically influenced by it rather when doing a hybrid 2/3d vid just moving the camera around is an intuitive way to get some measure of action

looking back at this one it's mega barebones, just still copypasted sprites standing in place while funny moving shapes and a bit of swaying do the heavy lifting
>>132901
you could say it was an eyesore

for me, it doesn't really bother me, you can find the same style of "real but with an amine" from jap artists or even russians i came across a thread once, and something like the makeine ed with its godly beginning and then quickened choppitty choppitty footage, they're heavily stylizing the 3d itself rather than just putting stuff on top of it and i think it they pulled it off quite well

The VNDB tag for it is 'photographic backgrounds' (g433). There's 1758 of them listed on the site, or 858 if non-Japanese games are excluded. Tsukihime is another notable one.

Every time I see an artist that draws Blue Archive it's always lolis. Is the game just that chock full of them that it's all there is to draw? It really tempts me to try it out, but my distaste for gacha is still stronger. Only by a little bit...

The point was that people aren't playing the game to experience the vision of any one staff member, there's no message that will be diluted from replacing them. You can hire new people to draw the girls or write the songs and as long as they're sexy and catchy it won't matter that they're not the same guys because there's no ethos to the work.

you're not wrong, but that generality misses the point that the people who were responsible for doing that just left and are going to set up their own blackjack and hookers, that's what's impactful
