>>4563068 Today's episode was wild, the group met a family of impersonators and rather than the obvious choice of the mother being Liko, the father being Roy and the children being Dot and Ult, the mom was Liko, the dad Dot and the kids Roy and Ult('s Sableye). You don't do that by accident.
>>4563071 I'm not fully caught up yet but I've seen some screenshots.
I'm not sure if TPCI/GF/Nintendo would ever allow their protag to be full homo, but having their cosplayers be married with kids is a bit more than subtext.
>>4563073 >I'm not sure if TPCI/GF/Nintendo would ever allow their protag to be full homo You say this but TPCi/GF/Nintendo would never allow their protag to be full hetero either
In case you missed it the Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave artbook "leaked"(as in someone took a photo of one page of generic units) so the game's probably ready to start its advertising campaign and runup to launch if the art books are already printed. Which is great for me cause I was at the point of seriously contemplating wishlisting some of these FE clone SRPGs that possibly could have yuri in them.
>>4563296 Probably August since Nate said summer and every other leak of his from that batch has turned out accurate so far. I bet they'll reveal the date in a June Direct.
why does it feel like May doesn't have as much shipping art with girls from her own game as other main girls do? I think May and Flannery could be pretty fun
>>4563584 >99% of Dawn's yuri shippings are with Cynthia and we're all thankful for that, all pokegirls should have an age gap relationship with one of the gym leaders of their generation
>>4563352 As much as people like stuff like Sabrina/Erika, Cynthia/Dawn, Hilda/Bianca, Rosa/Roxie, etc., Pokemon yuri doesn't really take off until Sun/Moon's Mizulili and then really the unyielding powerhouse that is Gloria/Marnie. Going back to the yuri pixiv rankings posted in the last thread >>4559083 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzMi_2c0ap0 >pretty much just Touhou >then Madoka hits like the Cambrian explosion of yuri >then finally some Nintendo stuff really starts having a presence with 3H and SwSh at the tail end of the decade in their release year
Face it, pre-2010s yurifags basically had KnM, Shiznat, Nanofate and Touhou along with the smattering of yuri series translated into English or even more rarely adapted into animation. If you have to ask why there's barely any yuri art of this or that it's because it came out before Madoka and wasn't in an indie darling bullet hell series. >tfw being a Piltover's Finest fan before Arcane
Then going back to it, by the time we circled around back to Ruby and Sapphire with the remake, people were more interested in pairing May with the Magma/Aqua lieutenants and Zinnia, or Courtney and Shelly with each other. And that was STILL pre-Sun/Moon so you don't have that force multiplier in play yet.
>>4563598 >May with the Magma/Aqua lieutenants and Zinnia Don't forget Lisia and, for the Pokefuckers, Gardevoir itself (which was a Gen 3 debut, remember).
>>4563598 >people were more interested in pairing May with the Magma/Aqua lieutenants and Zinnia, or Courtney and Shelly with each other. what do guys like more? I think I like May with Courtney but Shelly is also nice
>>4563598 Shipping fanworks in general was just a much smaller niche back then. Hell, the internet was a lot smaller, and social media didn't exist. There was some Japanese stuff, but Pixiv didn't even launch until a year after the release of Diamond and Pearl. It's hard to rate the popularity of anything from that era relative to now.
>>4563635 In the absence of a japanese art distribution website ala deviantart, events like comiket are where artists would converge to showcase their pieces and reflect the popularity of the characters. Misty has had doujins since the 90s for example, and there's a LOT of yuri stuff for series like Touhou made even prior to Pixiv and the popularity of those pairings proceeded to be reflected on that site afterwards. Meaning that it doesn't matter if Pixiv arrived after the game's release, the pairing's popularity should have been noticeable regardless (be it on pictures subsequently uploaded on Pixiv or the aforementioned doujinshi) considering the next game was still years away just like how Gloria/Marnie dominated the Pokemon yuri scene up until SV came out.
>>4563611 I'd say Courtney got way more shipping attention than Shelly because people liked the creepy direction ORAS took her personality. Nothing wrong with Shelly, but I get the feeling that people were more focused on her body than her character.
>Nintendo starting its big Star Fox push for its release in a few weeks >State of Plays range from embarrassing to just a boring waste of 30-90 minutes of everyone's time >Xbox shows are generally pretty good but Game Freak is once again dividing attention between the pokemon game they should be focusing on and some bullshit no one will remember exists in five months is an unforced error that's just gonna be chronically annoying >Summer Gamesfest is just a Dorito Pope extortion racket with the occasional big publisher thing he loops in for free I don't need a big giant ass direct, just do a few overview trailers and fill out the calendar to Oct-Dec with some B to C-list releases or legacy HD Zelda/Metroid port shit and they get a passing grade. And do a hard confirm of yuri romance in the new FE.
>>4564623 Next new Zelda game will have a character creator where you can play as Gerudo, I know this because I've sacrificed 3 virgins to a demon to make this happen.
>>4564633 Wouldn't have been that far off from actual reality. >Retro pitched a Zelda RPG that would've have had multiple playable race reps >the two BS Zeldas had a female player option who much like the famous/infamous shonen captain art was just a red haired girl in Link's clothes taking up the Master Sword or the Zelda 1 magic sword to defeat Ganon and rescue Zelda
You figure with how many 2D Zelda indie clones there are out there somebody would've jumped on the "female sword-wielding adventurer rescues a princess and then they have marathon lesbian sex" concept
>>4565053 I can't say any of the future pairs are any I'd care about besides maybe Edelgard/Lysithea who already has 3 Houses to supply a little bit of ship art
>>4565452 Need her and dot to interact with gwynn and canari. Liko and gwynn getting into arguments about who the better streamer is while their girlfriends are doing a collab
