There are a few sad but sure reasons why this has no fandom in the US. First, it sold like crap here (kotaku said something like 33k copies in the first month.). Second, fandom creators — keep in mind this is a huge generalization, but still mostly true — are usually of the female persuasion. Not too many girls own PS3s (I, personally, know 3 including myself), so very few have even gotten the chance to play it.

I wish more people who did fandom things played this! I wrote one fic, and so far it's the only one I've ever seen in English (Im sure I'm wrong, but I just haven't found any others yet). If you find/have found anything, let me know! ^_^

171 OP

(Anonymous) 2009-01-29 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
I kind of figured the PS3 thing was part of it (and that probably also factored into how poorly it sold).

I found [livejournal.com profile] senjou_valkyria, but it's kinda dead. There's a tiny bit of fic there and on ff.net, but it's all short. :(

136: did you actually watch the movies, or just see the trailers? I don't watch it for the blood, I really DO watch it for the plot, and all the twists and turns and surprises. If I just wanted torture porn I'd go see "House of a Thousand Corpses" again.

lurk for a while and get a clue -.-


oh.. and some of us read the pwp because we love the show, and we love the characters, and we want to be involved in our fandom communities... but no one wants to write any thing else, and we're either too busy, too lazy, or we just can't write.

and ... i realize you're probably a hormonally driven teenager on your way to being a buffet table of assorted STD's- but there IS more to life than sex... i promise! Stop sleeping around, and you might find a hobby than won't cause your genital to wart over and puss!

You're missing all the fun!

Re: ns!1

Jesus. If you really are asexual, you should know that ragging on people for their sexuality is a shitty thing to do. There's no need to pull the out the "oh people who have sex a lot are ALL GOING TO GET STDS THOSE SLUTS LOLOLOL" straw man. It's so fucking juvenile.

If you don't want people to bother YOU about your lack of a sex life, maybe you should stop judging other people about their sex lives! What a concept.

136: LMAO! It's called good writing and plot twists, sweetheart. But seeing as you hate gore to begin with, I think it's pretty obvious that you're just blinded by your hate. It's OK. I'm sure you'll get over yourself someday and stop assuming that you know people's reasons for liking things. It'll be all right. *pat, pat*

105. I'm curious- what was it about WuFei that overshadowed the humor of Duo, the hottness of Trowa, or the compassion of Quatre? (And the all-around bad-assity of Heero?) WuFei was never even close to one of my favorite characters, but I felt like he at least grew up a little at the end of the series and started respecting women a little more.

108

[identity profile] amazingblazes.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
THE TRIBE.
I love that show. So much. I had no idea anyone else knew about it.

[identity profile] raven-scarlett.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
122. THANK YOU. I'm sick of being the only one I know of offline who really just doesn't get it.

164. What? No Yukiko/Kanji? Man, I feel so alone.

Also, 105

[identity profile] raven-scarlett.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
(I like the number placing.)

I actually always liked Wufei. My first viewing of the series had me iffy about him, but the second time around I tried to see where he was coming from and I suddenly forgave a lot of his attitude. By the third time I watched the show entirely, he was my favourite of the Gundam pilots. Looking back at it now, I also would go so far as to say he also has plenty of room to mature further; he was only fifteen years old, after all.

>Seriously, these guys are straight.
>Seriously, Tieria is straight.
>Tieria is straight.
>Tieria

Sure he has become a splendid mother for the CB crew but that doesn't make him straight. Besides, what is "straight" for an innovator? Our normal approach is useless here. But I agree on the other guys. Doesn't stop me from shipping though. In before assumptions about me assuming Lockon x Tieria was canon.

161.
Ditto that. Also on series like Tsubasa, xxxHOLiC, and even Gundam 00.

170.
That problem's everywhere, not just the fandoms you listed. Shame, really.

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 05:14 am (UTC)(link)
108. I only vaguely remember it, but I remember that the fandom was scary. I did like it though--just didn't get to watch that much.


110. ZOMIGOSH YOU ARE SO RIGHT! I mean, about Adventures in Wonderland and all. I was fairly sure the Hatter was gay (at a time before I even knew what that meant), but dangit, I still wanted to be his bestest best friend.
I'm willing to give the movie a chance. Bri-Hatter will always be my fav, though.
And props, I thought no one but me and one lone friend remembered that kickin' show.


134. The weird thing is, I know what you mean. I mean, yeah, Harley's completely bonkers (although I think more recently in the comic's she's sane but zany, so there's that). But the reason the Joker got to her was more than just playing to her sympathy--it was because he seemed to be offering a wacky life unlike the norm.



136. I agree. Saw, maybe, I could understand. I've never seen it, though. But Hostel? No. The fact that movies like that are made speaks to something sick in our society that should be eradicated* rather than fed. And yeah, there was probably torture porn for decades, etc. But, y'know, now it's like, right in theatres and all, blantant and accepted.

*(yes, I know, strong wording. Whatever. People have different tastes, but torture porn goes beyond rape-fantasties...it's just messed up).



145. Lol. I did that. But I'm pretty darn proud of my ringtone. Doesn't hurt that I've got a spinny-dancey-flashy dalek charm too.



157. Not a huge fan of the show, but I always did hate curly-hair/mean girl thing. Though that last picture makes me want to ship that one so so much. (Yeah, I can't even remember the names though. I never really cared for 'em).



170. *Applause*



179. Mmm. My dream cast involves time travel, because it would be James Marsters as Crowley and Anthony Head as Aziraphale, but from about ten years ago. I's still like AH as Aziraphale. Admittedly, Simm would be pretty awesome, thought his flustered doesn't quite seem AZ's flustered. Not really sold on DT as Crowley.

Oh yeah, and on 136...

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 05:21 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose, since it's seeming a bit wanky, the "something sick" really applies more to Hostel than to Saw. As far as I understand, Saw has a plot and a point. Rather like a more detailed version of Se7en--a sick kind of movie, but not a bad one. I don't think I'll be able to watch Se7en again, and I doubt I'll ever bring myself to watch Saw--just not my thing--but that doesn't make them torture porn.

Hostel, though...I can't see it as anything but.

My entire teenage years were made up of this show and not once could I ever actually find the fandom online.

[identity profile] trustyoursins.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
105. ... Because of one fictional guy?

106. HAHAHA oh wow, can't unsee it. XD

109. "it's a bunch of badly-drawn games about little girls spewing colored lights at each other what the fuck is this"

That made me want it even more now, oh my god. *^*b

113. I dunno, I think at least sometimes, people write for the characters' sexual appetites, not their own.

115. Troll >O

122. I don't think 99% of people would care?

125. OH MY GOD, PEOPLE, STOP LIKING THINGS I DON'T LIKE! FUCK YOU YOU'RE STUPID AND HORRIBLE. I DON'T LIKE UNHEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS SO- SO YOU ALL SUCK. >E

127. I don't know who that baby is and don't care who her parents are (someone keeps saying Milla Jovovich? WELL NO WONDER---) but she is so goddamn adorable I want to hug her. D:

129. Oh god someone eventually has to tell us what this is from. *A*

131. Hey now, hey now, I love AUs and genderswap AUs. And when it's written well, they can still be incredibly IC. ): ... Of course, I have little right to talk, since I'm not in this fandom, hurr.

132. BAWWWWWWWW STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE!

134. I can get behind this one. c:

136. BAWWWWWWWWWWW STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE

Goddamn people CAN WE GET SOME VARIATION IN THIS SECRETS, HERE?

That said, damn, OP. Way to be a judgemental retard. I haven't even seen those movies yet because seeing blood/torture in live-action (it doesn't really bother me in cartoons) tends to make me feel at least a little sick. Something as gorey as I've heard the Saw movies are? Would just make me squirm ajsfhgakjfgasjfg do not quite want okay. And yet I'm so goddamn tempted to watch at least the first one, just because the idea of a serial killer not just killing people, but effectively getting them to kill themselves, by manipulating their "fatal flaws," appeals so hard to the English major dork in me. ):

But then, you know. No one can like something you don't like for reasons other than the arbitrary ones you've decided. Bawwww.

141. jaskfhkaj asjkfhakjfhakjfakk kafgkajfgk XDDD I WANT IT NOW. Not even into House but man that's... just amazing, and do want.

142. Uh, yeah. Because no one can like to read books for the emotion in them, rather than because "they need it to tell them not to do drugs!" My god, before I read that book, I had no idea drugs were bad for me. The enjoyment I got out of it was entirely because because I liked the way it was written and occasionally enjoy saddening, emotional, gut-punch downward spiral stories, not because it showed me the light or any dumb shit like that.

That said, unrelated book but a much better example of the... emotional, gut-punch, realistic genre to me? Lisa, Bright and Dark. INFINITELY prefer that book to Go Ask Alice. But I just can't dislike any book that is so obviously inspired by a Jefferson Airplane song.

Plus, goddamn. The movie had William Shatner and Andy Griffith in it. ): Don't be hatin'.

144. Good to know we can't have our own opinions about things without just being whiny weeaboos! Despite the fact that I like most dubs, but just can't like some others, I am apparently just a ~dub hater~ who is all desu desu desu desu elitist about SUBS ONLY, yanno. BAWWWW PEOPLE AREN'T ALLOWED TO DISLIKE THINGS I DO LIKE.

148. ... I want to ship it just from those pictures. And I've never even seen the show. ): They look adorable.

Oh, they are. You've got your laid-back skater guy who's totally confused about girls sometimes and ends up barfing in his first date's mouth, then you have your womanizing, cocky flirt who thinks he's all that. They're best friends and have the BEST chemistry together.

You should totally watch it, it's up on Youtube and airs on Cartoon Network in America. :D "The Khaki Girl" is the episode where they kiss. It's adorable.

[identity profile] trustyoursins.livejournal.com 2009-01-29 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
154. Honey, unless a point was made, in canon, to specifically come out and state that those boys aren't interested in other males/are interested in females only, they aren't canonically straight. Or else you have some pretty old-fashioned ideas about what gay or bi guys are "allowed" to act like.

155. O-omg, kind of want. XD

158. Yes, but would he be grudgingly proud if you responded to him with, "Yeah. I know what you think of me for this. But I DON'T CARE so suck it up." Image

160. Liking math IS cool, and somehow, Minamimoto is even cooler than that. :|b OP should not be ashamed.

162. This this this this this this this. Yes. Severe love for this show. ♥

163. As do most people who aren't interested in Hetalia, I assume. As most people tend to skip over things that do not interest them. No one cares.

170. I have very, very rarely been able to agree with "I judge you" secrets before (beyond, of course, the "if you judge other people based on stupid shit, I judge you" ones). But holy shit, I agree with this so hard.

172. What's weird is, I was under the impression that it was common knowledge that Korea wasn't even going to be in the anime even before Koreans started protesting it? Correct me if I'm wrong, please, but that just seems outright bizarre, bordering on actually stupid, to me. Yeah, I'm aware that that's harsh. But come on. If you're going to protest a series for having an insulting portrayal of your country in it, you might want to check to make sure that your country is actually in the series, first.

AGAIN, PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM MISTAKEN. Because, other than the utter fail of the results of that protest, that really is the only part of this striking me as rly dumb.

175. OH. OH, I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE.

176. I do not blame you, OP. I do not blame you in the slightest.

177. That picture is astoundingly pretty.

178. Riiiiight. See, I was gonna call you an idiot, OP, but looking at your clarifiers in the comments -- I think the problem is less "this is my only Asian fandom!" = "IN IT FOR THE GAY," and more the fact that if people actually give enough of a crap about where a series is from to be parading it around as "their Asian fandom," then they're kind of twits anyway.

Logic still doesn't work too well, though, since a lot of Japanese series (video games as well as anime and manga) are pretty friendly to the gay. Not to mention, what's so bad about getting into a series because people keep saying "WOW, THIS IS RLY FAGGY," again?

179. Hmm, I really can't see them quite fitting the roles. I do love Tennant, and Simm, but I can't see them in those roles. For some reason, though, methinks I would not mind Simm at all as, say, Newt. :B

BUT IT'S OKAY, I WOULD COMMIT CRIMES WITH YOU IF IT MEANT THE MOVIE WAS MADE AT ALL.

not!secret #1: Dude, you're a troll and you're not even a good troll. It's not even that you're obviously trolling, it's that you are using absolutely no logic whatsoever. What, the "desire" to share art and writing and love for storylines and characters = sexual desire, now? It isn't possible to read PWP without being turned on -- or even to masturbate and still be asexual? (Hint: it is totally possible to masturbate and still be asexual.) You can't be having fun and living a fulfilling life without going and out and banging someone? Okay then. Plz try harder.
