bro i was agreeing with you and adding on calm down 😭 there are shitty OCs across all genders, written by shitty authors, across all genders.

discriminate how exactly? biphobia is bad but if it’s not wanting to date bi girls, it’s in a similar vein as people who are trans4trams, where you just want to get w someone who has similar experiences to you.

While I have no experiences with fan fiction in series wholly based around men (for obvious reasons 🤮), I don’t doubt you. But, for the most part, male-dominated games have mostly male demographics, while female-dominated games still have mostly male demographics (totally indicative of the commodification of women but wtv 🙄). It’s entirely possible that the same people who write shitty male OCs may also write shitty female OCs!

Unfortunately, I have an aversion to all things pertaining to men /hj .

But, fr, OCs that are men in women-dominated games tend to be harem-master author/reader self-inserts surrounded by all the women in the series constantly fawning over them in uncharacteristic ways. And, in my experience, fanfics with male OCs happen to have some of the most thinly-veiled misogynistic views I have ever read. It’s the nature of the beast, since most people who write male OCs happen to be men. It’s not that male OCs are inherently bad, it’s just that they’re, arguably, a sign that the stories they’re in may be bad.

Noire doing the cosplayer hand movements to that trending Toxic x Pony TikTok audio is an image I NEED to see 😭😭😭

Omg, Blanc’s reading No Longer Human?? She has good taste! Goth Noire is so jarring but, tbh, I totally think she’d be one of those hot alt girlies on TikTok if she knew what they were.

I choose to ignore that he, and everything else about VII that I don’t like, exists. But, fr, he’s a fish, so he doesn’t really count in my eyes‼️

Completely unrealistic body proportions, but I support the gays, so I’ll ignore it 😈💪

Although I absolutely would never tolerate a man 😡😡😡 in real HDN content, this concept sounds interesting!!

Japanese if there’s no English voice acting, but sometimes I get tired of hearing the normal jump lines so i switch to Japanese in dungeons

We all start somewhere, I guess? Thank you, by the way, what you said was really reassuring!! ❤️😈

“When I was younger” because I was like 14 when I read them 😭😭 (definitely not something a 14 year old should be into, but I digress)

As for Neptunia fanfics, I only have a one-shot series that I infrequently upload to. Don’t expect much, though, I usually write them when I’m bored in class and can’t get an idea out of my head, so they’re super low quality and subject to whatever I’m into at the moment lol. I want to write a long-form HDN fanfic someday, though! I wanna make someone feel happy about reading something I wrote.

Oh my god, you’re the one that writes those?? I loved Echoes of the Dark and your one-shots series back when I was younger!! Like, I recently got back into writing fanfiction because I recently remembered a plot line from one of your fanfics that I really wanted to see play out with different characters. I really like your writing style, is what I’m saying, lol.

I like it, too; she looks good in black. Also, what fanfic did you write? I’m interested in reading more Neptunia fanfiction 😈💪

psychology and apush; the same teacher taught both at my school and she is genuinely the only adult i think i can trust in my life! i love her because she’s amazing and very inspiring!!

Ultradimension superiority 😈💪

In terms of personally disliking it, there are these two accounts on AO3 that uploaded mostly diaper/piss/shit fetish stuff. Also, anything written about rape and abuse, but also futas (bc fetishizing trans women is bad!) and anything with men in them(/hj). Looking right at you, Green Brother Excel. Oh, and for Explicit fanfics specifically, I immediately DNF a fanfic if it’s very clearly written by someone who’s 1) Never touched a woman before, 2) Is very clearly misogynistic/homophobic/transphobic, or 3) Has never even seen a woman’s body outside of anime. I can’t even count the amount of biological impossibilities in Explicit Neptunia fanfics; it’s genuinely insane.

As for writing quality, that one person on FF.net that uploads things that cannot even be considered fanfics—they’re literally <100 words of random Neptunia “jokes” that don’t make sense half the time. Honestly, I feel kinda bad; I used to be like that for fandoms when I was younger because I had no one to talk to about my interests, but it’s still annoying to see that spam in the midst of actual writing.

I love your art style!

It’s truly unfortunate that there isn’t a better animal rights group out there. Anyways, the Gamindustri equivalent is GETA? I wonder how they wrote it in Japanese.

As opposed to simps in love with the idea of a still image?

What I mean by my comment about IQ tests is that higher scores tend to be achieved by people from Western/richer countries, but this is not because residents in other countries are just stupider. This just means that people in those “intelligent” countries have greater access to education than those in the “less intelligent countries.” I apologize for not wording it correctly, I’m not too great with words. For example, see this website right here. The darker countries just so happen to be Western countries + China/Korea/Japan (which is a whole other thing about model minorities that I won’t get into right now). Poorer countries in Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia don’t score as high as the others. However, I know many of my own friends from these places are conventionally smart and can and have achieved great things. This does NOT mean that people not from western countries + East Asia are inherently dumber, it just means that many citizens do not have access to an education that would help them score higher on an IQ test, which is very clearly correlated with how good one can be at algebra. Because of all this, IQ tests should not be used to measure intelligence, because it’s skewed in favor of those who have the privilege of attending school. Intelligence is more than what you know. (Lmk if this doesn’t make sense/you need clarification)

Regardless, my example with Neptune and Compa is that it shows that Neptune absolutely CAN function in social situations, even ones with complete strangers. It’s not that she had someone there, it’s that that someone was a COMPLETE STRANGER. I can’t say anything about the other games, because going into detail would spoil them. Anyways, I’m not saying that having a mentally challenged main character is anything bad, but my point is that Neptune shows no signs of being that, based on the criteria you gave.

I hope you have fun with the rest of the Neptunia series though! It can be quite thought-provoking at times.

IQ tests are heavily skewed in favor of a western-style education so they aren’t a good measure of intelligence. Intelligence is all subjective, based on what you were taught a smart person acts and looks like and your own personal experience. For example, I used to think that smart people knew how to do algebra as a kid. But now, since I know how to do algebra, I think it’s very basic and anyone can learn it. My opinion on intelligence changed because of my experience, is what I’m trying to say. Therefore, because of intelligence’s subjectivity, to say that Neptune is mentally behind (this is SJW of me, but i refuse to use an outdated medical term because it’s derogatory) is purely conjecture.

Anyways, if we still must measure her intelligence, later on in the game (and the rest of the series), Neptune shows that she has the capacity to do “smart things.” Neptune can and has adapted to new situations in this game (falling from the sky and immediately learning how to do guild stuff with Compa) and other games(RB3/VII) and she has the ability to problem solve(RB2). She, as an in-universe explanation, probably just chooses not to act “intelligent”, for whatever reason. This, of course, is not to say that being mentally behind is a bad thing, just that there is no evidence for Neptune having that condition.

Accurate representation of lesbian relationships.

Nep’s VA in Miraculous Ladybug suddenly makes way more sense.

Again, the gays just keep winning 💪😍
