[ Anon Meme ]

F!S Anon Meme (the Seventh, and now on DW!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff.

Unpopular Ships
Obligatory Masturbation Thread
Fandoms you wish existed
How old are you?
What series have you always meant to watch/read/play/etc. but have never?
Time and location
Female-centric works
How do you feel about Tumblr?
Pet thread
Guilty pleasure thread
Favorite old shows
First fandom?

Katahane is in fact translated! I don't have download links on hand, but just googling Katahane should get it for you pretty easily. It's an excellent game, basically it's a lot of character-driven stuff in this world where there are humanoid dolls powered by magic gems. One of the main characters is trying to write a play about the historical figure Ein who is infamous for betraying one of the old kingdoms in this world back when they still had kingdoms, but her take on what happened is completely different from commonly accepted history. It's a really fascinating world. The handful of male characters in the main storyline are all pretty cool, the female characters are all quite interesting, and even in the history chapter there are male characters who aren't sexist dicks, and the head knight of the main kingdom the story focuses on, Dua Carlsteldt, is a woman.

F/SN is an excellent VN, though god it's so long. I still haven't beat the 2nd of 3 routes, argh. I will warn you that the protagonist and a few other characters can be outright unbearable at times (hell, at one point Shirou is seriously bitching about Rin beating his score at a batting cage because "girls shouldn't play baseball!" ugh I cringed so hard), but the female characters are all pretty boss and the story and world aspects are excellent. If you get in with the Fate/ DWRP crowd, plenty of legit discussion can be had.
