Gacha games are products. Not every game is made for every audience. The banner schedule, the protagonist setup and the character marketing usually show who the game is selling to. Canon and design first. Fan interpretations second.

Friendly reminder that these people don’t simply want to just enjoy their headcanons They want them validated, normalized, and then promoted. They want to be the majority & the authority in a fandom, to change the narrative around the game They can’t help themselves

I see people saying Lily is already gone, but aren't the official stories on the Wuthering Waves website kind of hard-spoiling that she has returned to the world, likely thanks to Rover?

To people who defend the headcanon guys, please understand They are gatekeeping their ships. When you say "NO" to them, and they victimize themselves They are protecting the Headcanon, Not the original work. They aren't your friends, they are NOT fans, they don't keep fandoms alive. The fandom they keep alive is: (Popular IP) themed headcanon fandom. In most cases a Zombie of the original fabdom
"NIKKE yurishippers are innocent and they are not like hoyoverse players!!!"

r/HonkaiStarRail_leaks, r/HonkaiAgendaRail & r/Queensofgacha are run by the same circlejerk that bans anyone who doesn't play along with their LGBT narrative.Pure fascism. For example, a power-tripping Mod u/PastSelfInMirror in r/HonkaiStarRail_leaks tends to get pissy over jokes and bans you for frequenting particular subs while hiding his own profile using the profile curation settings, so no one finds out where he's been hanging out. Meanwhile, the Queensofgacha sub has a flair called "Straggottry". Question them and risk a sitewide ban for “promoting hate based on identity.”

This is such a bad take. My second language is one of the hardest language to learn (Cantonese. Because of the tones) and yet I’ve not seen the same level of botched translation it has compared to Japanese Cantonese is WAY harder than Japanese. Ya’ll just have skill issues
People who complain about localization must take a Translation course in Linguistics and understand why Literal one-for-one translation is not always the option - Said by the guy who is majoring English Linguistics

As you can see, the yuritards have nothing but sheer contempt and hate for your medium of entertainment. They foam at the mouth at the idea of pushing their disgusting gender ideology and ruin your enjoyment.

Sorry but if your "headcanons, fanarts, fanfics" and other shit completely change premise, story, personality of characters or characters as a whole of your "favorite" media, then you're not actually a fan of it, you just want to engage in fandom activities.
Extremely hot take but, if you can't handle other people's headcanons, AUs, fanarts, fanfics or anything created by fans that differ a tiny bit from the canon or what YOU think is canon, maybe fandom spaces aren't for you.

So, notes in color theory, particularly when it comes to character design, because I find it interesting! Purple, in particular deep shades of purple, are traditionally considered a regal color, historically its production was really expensive which created the association between richness and the color. However, due to this rarity, it also gives an off-putting impression, like being the color used for venoms and dark magic, acquiring then connotations of subtle, deep-rooted corruption: the shades of the untrustworthy and decadent. A character with purple eyes, or purple accents in general, could therefore embody both sides of the color: a regal, aristocratic appearance, but one that hints at something corruptive and subtly malicious beneath the surface. Red, on the other hand, carries way more straightforward symbolism, for the most part, it is the color of intensity, blood, and passion. However, it can be regal too, but in a more outward, assertive, and honest way. It can also signify corruption, but unlike purple, it rarely conceals its nature, when it does corrupt something or someone, the effect is quite visceral and unapologetic. But red (alongside its neighbors’ shades of pink) is also the color of love! Where purple suggests something rotten beneath an immaculate exterior, red suggests something that burns openly, whether that something is hatred, wrath, lust, devotion, or love. It is a color of extremes, capable of representing both the most destructive and the most beautiful aspects of nature. The selfsame red spilled in violence also flows through an enamored heart That’s all for now, see ya!

good we better get more 2x2 love events. Hmmm, so the 4 beasts were originally supposed to stay as enemies and get killed off, but then they became really popular. Is that why the 4 beast arc took forever to complete? I mean cmon the 4 beasts have unique personalities and are beautiful. It shouldn't be that much of a surprise that everyone loves them. I want my levi gawd damn it
