I think you misunderstood. I didn't mean he should read the translations. just that it seems less fulfilling to me to read what is translated.

here is food analogy: even most useless person can bake toast in toaster without knowing how to cook, maybe a bit burnt. you look at cook books or cooking shows and see amazing meals but you can't cook them. restaurants are expensive -as opposed to translations taking time- but you want to eat good. you learn how to cook like pro. months or years later you can make best food in world but... you bake same old toast. don't use toaster no more and fry toast in oil in pan with spices and other ingredients. you gone from burnt toast to 3 michelin star toast. is still toast and you eat it every day. maybe toast your favorite food but you don't need cooking classes to make slightly better toast. try better recipes.

In fact I'd even wager that the beginnings of his drama might even be fabricated, as it often happens. You claim there are "haters" so that people go "oh no those villains!" and root for you harder. Happens countless times on the internet. Like I remember some speech on his site where he was imagining someone claiming that a hand sculpt is an obscure racist sign or whatever. Who the fuck is going to say that when 3/4 of your dolls are black? He's got this persona which is a very common and very successful type of persona on the internet, people think you're misunderstood and standing your ground against made-up villains. This also filters any troublesome clients and leaves you with submissive whales who'll accept any bullshit from you. It just works. The best counter to it is to never talk about these people and never even mention them. I'd rather talk about obscure, unpopular makers who are actually worth talking about.

The biggest lie I have ever heard is that the world desires unique people.

You're allowed to differ from the norm in one of a handful of ways. Outside of that, you will be punished severely. When you try to express your point-of-view, you will have an unimaginable amount of scorn and derision thrown your way. They'll try to make you feel guilty, they'll assume you're being dishonest and putting on a weird act, and they'll often assume you're one of their enemies "in disguise". Maybe that sounds unrealistic to you, but I have an example.

Tonight I was reading about David Hume. Currently he's considered one of the greatest philosophers of all time, but during his own life, despite his best efforts to communicate and be genuine, his contemporaries believed he was a dishonest and evil man trying to subvert the foundations of religion and philosophy, and it got so bad one of his friends went behind his back to block his attempt to become a college professor. All his life, he was haunted with self doubt over his own abilities, and renounced his first treatise because so many people attempted to convince him it was nonsense. If he didn't get popular in France he likely would've abandoned philosophy.

Here's an idea: If simply expressing your honest views in clear language makes everyone call you a combination of: (1) schizo, (2) retarded, (3) a bad actor, there's a good chance you're doing something right. You see, they say these things because they cannot wrap their brain around what you're actually saying, so they assume a defensive posture and interpret you as a threat. Just like how a person in a dark room who senses a mysterious presence will immediately assume a defensive pose. They cannot understand you so they reflexively interpret you as a threat. See, if they actually believed you were schizo or retarded they'd just treat you like a Flat Earther and laugh. They react with hostility because you are obviously intelligent and sane, but incomprehensible to them, so they assume malice. The fate of a unique person is to be constantly, entirely misunderstood.

Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything

>>45679437
You've misunderstood.
I like both. This is the correct and healthy position

Why the fuck would I want to date a Demon? They're a fucking demon! They're evil! That's the point. No I'm not gonna fall for some smoothbrain trite about le good Demons or that they're misunderstood. That is fundamentally not the point. And don't try to sell me that "well uh demon had a classical description about anything that was supernatural" shit either, because the vast majority of any fucker you can put under that umbrella is guess what? That's right, FUCKING EVIL. So no, I will NOT date a Demon, or an Imp, or a Succubus, or a Lilim. I'll date a pretty golden Angel babe instead because Angels are a force of good.

She AVOIDS mentioning her, while Miko is the one who can calmly address the situation and come up with excuses. Meaning it's actually Pekora who made the move and got rejected. Miko was dropping hints for years, but it was actually just business fanservice that Pekora misunderstood.
Makes way more sense than official "ship got too popular so one of them decided to actively avoid it".

Wearing that blank stare again Lampy looked at her before breaking out into a jolly high-pitched laugh, “Tree thief?! Gme?! I’m a gernome not a thief of trees! Gnomes don’t steal as much as humans breathe water! We believe in gifting each other just fine you know! Nope, not a thief among us and never have been!” It strutted back and forth as if modeling a new outfit, “We gnomes would never steal a tree, we’re spirits of the earth and could grow ‘em just fine without it”

Hana was to open her mouth but Lampy continued unabated by her practiced glare, “Gno, what we needed was ordered by the big man himself. We gave a gift those humans like, that money stuff, and in exchange we get all the charcoal we need for this year!”

Sighing, Hana realized that this little idiot of a youkai… fairy? Well, something similar anyways, was at least harmless, “Listen up, I don’t care if you and your lot freeze this winter alone or huddled up, you’ll stop raiding the villagers and causing a ruckus every year!”

The gnome tsked its tongue disapprovingly, “Gnow gnow, I see someone’s on the naughty list this year, I don’t know why the big man tries… Guess that’s a saint for ‘ya. Are all the children here spoiled like you?”

Hana was about to see if he can respawn like a fairy can when she barked out, “I don’t need your comments, now are you going to leave things alone or am I going to have to see how hard it is to bust your head!“

Just like a youkai, they always need a bit of fear put in them before the-, “No deal sweet cheeks, it ain’t up to me. The big man wants his charcoal and he’ll get it, no way you and your little alliance is gonna put a stop to that this year or any other year!”

At that moment she felt a disturbance and a gap opened in her living room, Aunn started barking and the Gnome rolled his eyes as he turned to the tear in reality with all the respect and fear of someone picking a bit of lint from his navel, “About time, lady. My arms are aching all gover!”

Yukari entered, her parasol complimenting her white dress and purple tabard, she’s on business? She doesn’t look happy either, her fan’s already out and flittered in front of her face, “You, little invader” a flash of her fan and the ropes were untied and the seal burning in spiritual fire, as if on queue the little thing clicked its heels and dropped into a portal of swirling snow.

Hana was shocked for more than one reason as she reconciled the events that transpired, why did mama…? Either way she quickly walked over to her dear sister who was caught between the instinct to protect Hana and the fear of the women ahead of her, something that hurt Hana’s heart. She scooped up her hand and held it tightly just in case Aunn decided to do something dumb.

Gathering her wits just as Yukari’s gaze swept to her, Hana spoke before her loving, if misunderstood mother spoke as the gap behind her closed, “Yukari-san what’s going on? Why did yo-?”

Yukari’s voice was as icy as the snow outside and it shut up the miko-in-training immediately, “Hana-chan” She seemed to ignore Aunn entirely, “It seems there’s no more use in keeping you in the dark, come. We don’t have much time.”

As she turned her back on the girls Aunn shouted out, “No way are you taking Hana like you took Anon! No way no way! I won’t let you!”

Despite her trembling knees, Aunn was defiant, “I’ll protect Hana from you no matter what, s-so leave her alone!”

Hana wasn’t surprised, but her heart was in the wrong place. Yukari stopped in her tracks and flicked her fan down with force and closed it in one smooth motion, but it was Hana that spoke first to her sister, “Aunn, its okay! Yukari-san would never hurt me, she… she just needs help and has an explanation for why she needs me, right?”

Yukari responded slowly, in a drawn-out way that ran a chill down Hana’s back despite knowing that she’d never do something like hurt her sister, “Komainu, every year do you know where Reimu-san vanishes to along with Byakuren-san and Kanako-san?”

With a whine as Aunn thought back she shook her head as if Yukari could see it, “N-no, but what does that have to do w-“

Her voice flowed like a deadly stream, “That is because every year we must band together to stop an unstoppable force that threatens to destroy this land, no matter what the cost. Every second you spend yapping is another you hamper our efforts, is that enough for you?”

Neither girl could detect a hint of a lie, the atmosphere was heavy in the little living room as Hana spoke up, “I’m telling you Aunn, it’ll be okay. Yukari-san won’t harm me and I’ll be back in time for supper, right Yukari-san?”

Parsee isn't a yandere, she's just extremely misunderstood

—
Me and Meiling could just… stare. How did we stumble onto this? A youkai of a building, like that of the actual Hakurei Shrine, gestating inside millions of different magical channels and layers of barriers, all masterpieces of the Gap Sage. And her almighty power of sewing others’ powers to herself? What are the possibilities? Every resident of the Scarlet Devil Mansion but Koa has come here, and our powers have been perfectly assimilated. But what about others? So many magic signatures—some I know personally and others a total, tempting mystery…

… And this girl's face, so akin to mine, like looking in a mirror and seeing a younger version of myself.

This whole situation is of complicated confusion and mysteries—she called this place a womb; is this where youkai are formed? Are all of them like this? Do all of them have consciousness before being born?—, begging to be unfolded…

It's luring, mystifying.

The nameless girl sighs, that tiny smile trying to fade away but remaining anyway. Her words started to sink, and my chest clenched. Yukari and Anon are incapable of seeing her; that much is easy to discern, but the rest… Words of sorrow and frustration, of a being without mouth but that so badly wanted to scream and did it the moment someone was there to listen.

I stare at Meiling, mulling if I should tell about my perceptions; she was always closer to the heart than the mind, my polar opposite.

She must’ve misunderstood my eyes because she went and took initiative. "T-That's a lot of responsibilities for a little girl, don't you think?" Her voice had a trembling to it, but she pushed past it; the girl silent as if analyzing variables beyond my wildest thoughts—considering the sheer amount of powers that course her being, her thought cabinet should be near boundless; is she reading our minds? Seeing future? All of it at the same time—

"What? 'Course not." She said it with a pout. The tree behind her pulsed with unlimited, unsoundable energy.

Meiling giggled. "I think it is—you called us your mothers, right?" She frowned, then nodded. Meiling got closer, her steps tense, before kneeling to look the ‘youkai’ in the eyes. "Then why don't you leave that for us?"

—What the…?! What's happening?

"Leave it to you?" Meiling nodded. "… Why?"

"We also want to leave this place, return to the people we love." As if testing waters, Meiling hovered her hands around the girl's shoulders. "So, if we somehow leave, we'll do everything in our power to make Anon and Yukari known of you, okay? While we do that, you should focus on getting… birthed?" She gave a weird smile, and I felt my hands sweating for some reason.

Meiling froze, feeling something in the air I couldn't pos— "You are afraid, mother." The girl said, no judgement to it. "That's why you want me to forsake my only dream."

"No! I—" The guardian swallows dry and, under pressure, finally holds the girl's shoulders. I see the cold shiver that goes through her body. "—Y-Yes… I'm afraid. We don't know anything of you, and your capacities are a mystery… But you're more than just that—destructive powers and mysteries—you're a lone little girl, and I know a thing or two about caring for those."

"… Mum Flandre likes you a lot." A smile pulled Meiling’s cheeks up, and the girl hummed. As nothing bad seems in immediate order, I step towards them, eyes on the tree and its magnificent composition. It's for all accounts an egg, yet it interacts with its environment—I caught a stray leaf and watched the moving image of Anon hugging copious amounts of tiny Inaba rabbits, smile big and truly happy—, shaping it based on laws beyond my understanding, as if the world itself were gestating it— "True Mother will think that when I'm born. It'll be my name: Hata no Sekai."

I looked to the side, the girl and Meiling there; though the latter’s eyes shone, I could tell she was on edge… And I felt why the moment the girl—Sekai—calmly took the leaf from my hand, our skins rubbing together briefly: It was like the touch of a thousand souls, all at once. It was highly disturbing. "What are these leaves?" I asked, Sekai playing with it for a little.

"… Possibilities. Past and future," her eyes narrowed, and she let the wind take the leaf away. "There's more, you know? Two sisters: one father can see, the other neither we can, only faintly feel her. Both cry and rage against the plundering of our birthright, though they're much weaker than me and can't take action. I'm unborn, too; I cannot leave this womb yet." Sekai turns to us, and the background of a massive Sakura of blue starlight gives that simple-looking girl an ominous, enchanting aura. The tree trembles, as does the Fake Shrine. "Free us from this nightmare, Mothers, please… Or, when the first winter star rises, I'll do it myself, and this world will regret its transgressions against my family."

Her words… What's happening?

—I remember her words about our time being short, eyes widening.

"Wai—"

Why is it always manticores getting portrayed as the misunderstood, sensitive predators?
Is it because they are hyper intelligent, moreso than most monsters?

Poor Satoshi
Forgotten by shitoko the sister he killed for, the sister who made his life hell with her tard tantrums.
And misunderstood by shitoko followers who just happen to also throw the occasional tantrum when things don't go their way.

>>45568844
It is. Sorry, I misunderstood your request and thought you were looking for more similar pictures of MDDs. After rereading your post I realize I'm retarded.

i think you misunderstood something my dear brown friend

I might have misunderstood. Drinking. There is no TRUE way to sort by species. Looking for it in the story name is your only bet.
I have dreams of making a comprehensive list if I have become unemployed, haha

lmao seems like you misunderstood the question
it was asking that in a sense of like oh no the roads closed and you need to take a detour or maybe you have to go somewhere down a road you dont normally drive on
cant believe youre actually bothered by the test though

>yuyuko
I think she's busy enough with Youmu, but she's likely to think of you less a kid and more a servant. Plus human lifespans and what not. Can't really see it happening
>yuuka
That would be... interesting I guess? Yuuka either treats her kid like free farm labour or like one of her plants, which is to say anyone that touches her kid gets their kneecaps politely removed.
>ran
Isn't Chen sort of her child anyway? Crazy cat lady with mofumofu, I guess. She looks the most likely out of them to actually be responsible enough to care for a tiny human. Which you lot probably aren't, if all the 'reborn as a youkai' threads say anything.
>yukari
Kind of a wildcard just like Yuuka, only she's a lazy oaf. She'd dump her kid onto Ran while she goes raiding the moon's liqueur stashes or something.
>kanako
An egocentric nutjob but a caring one if her and Sanae are anything to go by. She's probably second to Ran in terms of mom-ing.
>eirin
Eirin is the type of person to leave pihranna acid or some other deadly reagent around for a toddler to liquify themselves with. Or an extra dose of Hourai Elixer, in which case she's just created an undying and unaging toddler. There's this one bizzaro fanfic where she becomes Mokou's mom, but no thanks. I'd like to survive childhood without being vivisected or being the subject of random nonconsentual clinical trials.
>byakuren
About the only character that isn't at risk of casually murdering someone's kid besides Ran, unless she tries to set you up with a hungry youkai that's 'misunderstood'. Have fun becoming a monk.

>>45431585
I intentionally misunderstood you for comedic effect.

>>45421926
I think you misunderstood me because I agree with you. I have nothing against bland, inoffensive or barely noticeable H music. I don't need full blast action in every scene and especially not in romantic vanilla scenes. My problem are offensively drab tracks that stick out. When a scene takes longer than 10 minutes to read and it sounds like I'm idling in a church in DQ I get turned off and want to finish the scene ASAP. Usually I see that with string music, very low tempo/rhythm tracks and BGM that wants to evoke a "dreamy" mood.

Look at feng's Seiiki series. There are 2 tracks for H scenes.
>1: https://litter.catbox.moe/rkibae.ogg
From the first second I love this one. Beat and melody are pleasant. It matches the erotic tension. The occasional use of midi sax and electric guitar work really well.
>2: https://litter.catbox.moe/rc2oxx.ogg
This is used for the more romantic H scenes, but it's too slow for me. I can't not focus on the "ding - ding - ding... ding - ding .... ding - ding ding - ding.. ding" jingle bells. It makes me sleepy and bored in an H scene. This music would work in a kiss or confession scene or anything not an H scene. It's criminal to have this when the other track worked perfectly for H. I felt tempted to replace the 2nd for the 1st BGM.
