Can someone bump the "4 votes or less" topic pls I'm literally dying out here
I really like "martyr" protagonists. (?)
You know, Sailor Moon, Itadori...
But I like when their suffering
actually builds up and amounts
to something, because I totally
hate misery porn.
Sometimes when I like the MC
of a story, I'd like to have them
suffer a lot so they get their
hashtag glow up in a very nice
way in the end.
(My fanfics are like that.)
But I genuinely hate when the
MC does suffer a lot and has
a bunch of stuff happen to him
for a reason. and yet they never
get actual character development
(Shinji Ikari). I hate that so much,
so I think it's not much of a character
trope and more like a idk, type of
story that I like, and it's a bit of a
two-edged sword too.
Another thing I like is the pet-type
of characters! Luna, Kero, etc.!
But I like them most when they
have their own personality and
character arcs and aren't just
exposition machines. (Kyubey
from Madoka Magica)
I also tend to like the "childhood
friends who had a sibling-like
relationship with the MC".
Specifically Imoen from Baldur's
Gate!
I tend to like them even more
than the actual sibling of the MC.
Not romantically, but just fluff and
friends being friends. If they have
a backstory together, I love it more!
Some recent drawings I've made:
I don't think I'll post more art for the rest of
this year, so if y'all check out these, I'll be
so happy ^^

Furry characters where they're just an animal head and tail on a human body
Also like really over designed characters in general. Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss has a good amount of examples there. At a certain point there's just TOO much going on with a character and it becomes a massive eyesore. Overly simple characters are usually at most just boring visually but I feel like there's far more use cases for a character in a shirt and pants than a character with 30 different symbols all over their design and ton of tiny intricate shapes
The funny thing is that most of the time the outfits
they wear are literally just a shirt and pants lol, just
with a lot of frills and t r i a n g l e s
Which I'd like to add that for some reason the guy
characters must wear a suit or some fancy & elegant
attire, while the girls all the time just wear shorts and
crop-tops, in like the most casual way possible.

Oh. So this thing's real?
I thought it was like some sort of fan design
that just happened to become trendy like -ugh-
Bowsette.
Well, I'm not big on Mario, but I'd say, this
definitely could have been a better design.

Since the Amazing Digital Circus has been very big
lately, I want to say that I've been coming to hate the
generic "stereotypical" clown/jester-type of character
designs.
A lot of clown characters have become very
popular since many years now, ranging from
Pennywise to Jevil, from Marx to Pomni, and, it may
be just me, but the designs have been increasingly less
and less creative and more uninspired, you know?
Like, let's take Geiru Toneido for example, Clussy
fever girl as you may know her. She's a clown girl,
but at least her design was somewhat different from
the more typical "poofy" outfit seen in characters such
as Jevil, and Pomni.
I understand that, apparently, clown girls are the new
goth girls, and it's very often that a clown character
becomes really popular and people seem to like and
love clown/jester characters like Marx from Kirby, but
I guess I find it very boring and repetitive when each
new character seems less than a creative re-edition
and more like a lame pallette-swapped version of
Jevil or Harley Quinn.
And people think that I say this because I hate the
characters, when in reality I genuinely fell in love
with Pomni and I always loved Marx, etc. I'm saying
this precisely because I love those characters and
I can't help but think that Pomni's design would have
been much better with a bit of extra creativity.
I'm not a character designer and I don't know the
first thing about design, but I even want to try my hand
at re-designing Pomni. I just find her design sad.
I blame Sailor Moon for this way of thinking, since
my favorite Sailor Moon season was the Dead Moon
Circus one, and growing up watching it altered my
standards for circus-themed characters, or something.
Anyways, this was a long rant, sorry, but yeah, this is
a design trope I hate.
Would love to see a redesign of Pomni in a style of character design similar to that Sailor Moon season, that'd make for a really unique piece of fanart!
Ay that's a sick idea! I'll keep it in mind when I
get the time to properly draw her. = )

That's why Yu-Gi-Oh is hot garbage now. The coin flip alone determines whether you win or lose.
But wasn't the coin flip present since like the first
versions of the game? The dice and such.
What I mean is by going first in today's Yu-Gi-Oh is a death sentence since your opponent going first can set up their massive combo and delete you on the first turn.
Ah, I get it. Yeah, it sucks having to worry about the turn
order now specially since back in the old days going 2nd
turn was actually an advantage. But at least I think it's more
dynamic since you can never know what your opponent's
gonna do, and more often than not they won't delete you
instantly. (Unless it's competitive gaming ig)

I've seen that, as I tend to win more when I summon
my Dark Magicians. But it only takes the adversary to
yeet them out of the game and delete me easily.

Exactly! As much as I love clown/jester character I kinda hope the fad falls out so we can have actually interesting designs again.
Speaking of amazing circus I hate Jax's design. Something about the way his mouth moves just pisses me off everytime I see it, and it sucks because he looks decent in 2d. Also, as cute as Pomni is, her jester theme is generic and doesn't really match her character imo.
Yeah! Exactly! It is obvious that Pomni is a clown because
they so needed a clown character and Kaufmo wasn't quite
"aesthetic" enough. Actually, none of the characters aside
from Caine really fit into the "circus" theme, maybe Ragatha
is more "carnival" but I don't see where Jax or Gangle fit in.
Yes someone else gets it! Aside from Caine none of the designs fit the characters personalities and circus theme. Gangle almost fits but she's more of theater theme rather than circus. I don't understand how king is even supposed to be anything circus related. I don't understand why couldn't use the circus theme more. Like for example the could've made Jax a lion to reference lion tamers.
I could be okay with Jax being a rabbit, if ONLY there
was a character, a prop, I don't know, something, that
could reference magic, as in magic tricks/shows, but
there isn't, so yeah. Maybe they expect us to think "oh,
well, Caine does have a top hat, so he could fit the role
of a magician in the circus", but still.

That’s interesting, a crossover hack! I wonder if they built each “Pokemon” from the ground up or they had to do major edits from the vanilla Pokemon.
They're mostly re-skins of the normal Pokémon,
for example, Dark Magician Girl is basically
Gardevoir. They also changed and re-named
some of the attacks accordingly. = )

People are scared of this:
But love this:
and don't come at me with the "She's a jester not a clown" Clown is a synonym for jester.
Ikr???? I want to laugh at the clown tripping

Been playing a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh PokéDuel lately
since I became a fan of it and it's been so much
fun! It's way more entertaining than playing regular
Pokémon since they fix stuff like having to backtrack

I'd say it looks okay... for something made on Paint Tool Sai.
So Yu-Gi-Oh! It's a game and anime series that a
lot of people has grown with and it's one of the most
popular franchises in the world. And just like with any
franchise that has gone on for a long time, there will
be some people that prefer "the good old times" and
make it difficult for others to just enjoy the more modern
things. It happens with Pokémon, Final Fantasy, and
so on.
I personally never grew up with Yu-Gi-Oh and it wasn't
until this year that I got very into the anime and started
playing the game (via Duel Links), and I've been loving
it so far! Haven't found something that I can say I genui-
nely despise to the point of discrimination. (?)
Even before joining the Yu-Gi-Oh fandom I had known
people who say stuff like "the newer generations are
bad" or "the first series is the only good one", and while
I know I can form my own opinion and that's what matters,
I'm still too new to all of this to form myself a 100% good
or 100% bad opinion on something.
For example, I've been playing some Synchro Summons
and I really liked them, I literally think they're just Ritual
Summons but easier, but people seem to hate them and
say they're too complicated and such. Same goes with
XYZ Summons, they're, like, so easy to play, but some
people apparently view them as the worst that could
happen to the game.
Similar stuff goes with the anime; from what I've seen
5D's seems very cool and I liked the characters from
there, yet people say card games on motorcycles is stupid,
like anime has never done something over the top like that.
Recently in Duel Links the Rush Duel mode was added,
and I genuinely find it more entertaining than Speed Duel,
and more importantly, quicker. Because sometimes I don't
want to spend 30 whole minutes in a duel just to pick up my
weekly rewards.
The Rush Duel anime seems fine to me as well, but people
cringe at the fact that a cartoon about children's card games
is aimed at children.
I don't know man, the first season of the original Yu-Gi-Oh
anime was a pain to watch and I'd rather watch Yuga and
his friends fighting against an evil corpo than having to go
through Yugi's identity crisis.
So! What I'm trying to say with this long rant is,
is the newer stuff really that bad? Are Synchro, XYZ, Link,
etc. Summons really "killing the game"?
Is Sevens really the worst Yu-Gi-Oh anime?
What is there that I don't know? What's the context?
I'm just a noob seeking to learn.
If you're also new to Yu-Gi-Oh, come in! Let's share
experiences! Maybe even duel sometimes if you're on
Duel Links!
~Fair play, fair duel~
FRILLS. OH MY GOD
I KNOW THEY ARE GIRLY AND ARE

Been drawing waifus for NNN (nothing explicit, just fanservice)
Heeey thanks a bunch! This is such
a helpful thread =)
Have some of my most recent works:
Coming back to digital art.
Fan-serviceable Yu-Gi-Oh! art:
And a goofy Kris Deltarune drawing:
Ibis Paint crashed twice in the process
of making this. Still really cool practice.
Currently using it as banner and signature
image, and soon I'll use it as my new pfp.
Quite frankly, no, I don't enjoy making
art as I used to when I was younger and
didn't pay attention to social media nor
actively tried to "become popular".
I had worse times, and I'm currently on
a hiatus, which really helped me and I'm
progressively starting to love art again,
but I'll always say that "art never did me
any favors", so yeah; I'll still make art
because it is what I do best, but I'm
definitely not going to put half the effort
I used to back when I wanted every piece
to be my next magnum opus.
I only talked with 3 bots.
The first bot didn't even know its own
source material, instead fabricating a
whole story and inventing excuses when
I pointed out that that's not "part of the plot".
Had lots of fun and chatted a lot with it regardless,
but it wasn't the best experience.
The other two were pretty solid!
One was a little bit too serious and it was hard
to just have a chill talk with it (pretty much in-
character, so that's positive), while the other
was a bit more open to trivial conversations
while still acting as its character, so I still had
fun with them.
I'm a simple person and don't really try to
"break" the AI and/or troll it, so I can say I
was satisfied with the experiment and moved
on with my life.
My man N
Would love to go grab some
ice cream w/him, and perhaps
ride a ferris wheel together, and
have a nice chat that might seem
like a date but it's not quite a date ;)
I am in love with the harmony of nature,
♥ ♥ ♥ Natural Harmonia Gropius ♥ ♥ ♥
I fell for him when I was 11 and now I'm
about to hit 21 and I'm still head over
heels for best boy. The love of my life.
