ur opinion ?
Ok, I’m finally taking a look at this video, and yes, I agree with a lot of it. There are a couple of spots I probably would’ve engaged with using a little more nuance/detail or specifics but for the most part, yeah this is pretty spot on.
Part 1: father/daughter narrative – agree wholeheartedly, no notes tbh.
Part 2: n/f shippers – Since there aren’t specific examples given, it’s a bit hard for me to judge what they consider infantilization within the n/f fandom e.g. Is it that artist who very clearly has a daddy/daughter kink? Is it people who draw her crying too much? Is it her being plowed in nsfw fanart? Without knowing exactly what the person is talking about, it’s hard for me to fully agree, as I do think at least the English language side of n/f fandom doesn’t really seem to depict her as an incapable child but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist at all. I’m just not sure prominent enough to really… single out n/f fandom for?
Part 3: obsessive fans – I’ll preface this by saying that I saw a lot of n/f fans got harassed to hell and back--and most n/f fans are first and foremost Furina fans. The harassment continues to this day, so the increasingly defensive response I’ve seen has not been wholly surprising. That said, I do agree that it’s become quite difficult to talk about her character in nuanced ways. The range of acceptable flaws you’re allowed to talk about is very limited. On the rare occasion someone is willing to concede that she has a flaw, they’ll usually spend an equal amount of time telling you that Neuvillette is just as bad or worse. Nothing is ever just her fault/responsibility and b/c the player has the benefit of 20/20 hindsight + additional knowledge on the situation, other characters’ perspectives are rarely considered (the lack of sympathy from some fans re: Poisson is one example).
Part 4: antis – again agree wholeheartedly, no notes! lol

pulling anyone in 5.0?
nah, none of the Natlan characters interest me. I got Kazuha on his last run (kind of laughing now at how I pushed myself to get enough primos to snag him on the last day of his banner b/c I assumed they wouldn't run him again for a year and now he's already back). I'd like to eventually get Raiden but this is much sooner than I was expecting them to run her so it's very unlikely I'll pull for her unless I come into a sudden surplus of primos lol

what about favourite non-genshin ships?
so most of my ships before this have just been.... the canon or pseudo-canon relationships that are already in the story tbh lol and even though I guess by definition I ship them, I've also never been particularly engaged with the shipping fandoms themselves? (sorry if that sounds a bit confusing haha).
But anyway, here are some anime couples I like:
Ranma x Akane (Ranma 1/2)
Homura x Madoka (Madoka Magica)
Kyoko x Sayaka (Madoka Magica)
Utena x Anthy (Revolutionary Girl Utena)
Fuma x Kamui (X)
Usagi x Mamoru (Sailor Moon)
Kunzite x Zoisite (Sailor Moon)

What game is your favourite game/ you have fond memories off (-GI if it was in that)
Stardew Valley! I'm mostly a monogamer, so before I played Genshin, I spent 3 years playing SDV. Even got as far as making mods for the game :)

Favorite genshin ships?
neuvifuri, eimiko, and clorivia are the main ones. I will RT other stuff onto the timeline (including those 6 characters with other characters if I see something interesting), but I'm not super invested in other genshin ships tbh

favorite story quests
keeping in mind I haven't done Chiori or Emilie's yet (though I don't expect them to rise to the top lol):
Neuvillette, Tighnari, Dehya, and Nahida's 2nd one
after those 4, I also really love Yoimiya's 2nd one, Furina, Xianyun, Hu Tao, Itto, and Baizhu. (straight up went into Baizhu's thinking "ok let's get this over with" and was really pleasantly surprised at how interesting it was)

(menacingly) what are your honest thoughts on sampo koski
LOL, well since I don't play HSR, I don't have many thoughts, but the first time I saw him was in one of the SDV servers I'm in and unfortunately thought he was Wrio in a different outfit xD
