I can't help you with your problem since I never had any issues with posting and I have no clue if staff can block certain words in topic name.

I can answer you your question from another topic though, since Nezchan didn't even bother to explain it to you.

It's actually pretty simple. There is a lot people here who hate dicks and get triggered just seeing 1. For those people the tags futanari and yuri are separate so they won't by accident search for something yuri and get futa and they will have bad experience. As contrived as it sounds, it's not because of Dynasty being transphobic, but in order to protect users from content they don't want to see. If you ask, why they couldn't just tag both and conclude people who don't want to see futa will search excluding that tag? Because Dynasty assumes people are too stupid to do that and need to hold their hand.

Also in order to contact staff you can use IRC channel (the megaphone icon on top of the site next to "Forum") or Dynasty Discord

Really? Because SM has a much higher animation budget than the prior series.

Does it? X & Y had some pretty over the top animation

Budget doesn't really affect animation as much as people think. The animators skill and healthy schedule and environment are often more important.

My complaint is directed at the art style, not the animation. Ofc, that is subjective though.

Well, I know you won't like, what you don't like, but this should shed some light how much that art style was important for animation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrBH3IYRjaw

Can someone explain why the hell incest is an acceptable field of interest?

I just did and you ignored it so.

Rain Spectre posted:

It's not just the giant breasts that are in no way proportional to the girls bodies, it's something about the girls clothing style, skin texture and other such matters that makes them...unpleasant to look at. It's hard to describe.

It was what bothered me the most so I didn't really pay more attention to other stuff.

Also, I'd question that incest comment, but I'd rather not go down that route.

I simply don't think love between 2 people that happened to be related by blood should be treated as taboo, since they are probably the ones that are most aware of the fact how uncommon and weird it is, so what right other people have to give them more problems (and especially when it is 2 girls, I don't see how it is a bad thing).

Edit: Just in case, i was sarcastic about calling it "subtext" by the way. I wouldn't call ALL THAT GAY ASS SHIT subtext. Hence the quote marks.

On whole topic of subtext, I really hate how the meaning and use of the word changed. To me subtext is not less valid than text, because the whole reason it is called subtext is because there is some text in it. It's just not blatant and you have to be more observant to catch it (or get yuri vibes from everything gay like me). So yes, even if show isn't yuri and have just 1 character showing up some subtext, it isn't any less valid than show focused on romance, because w/e cynical or not, creators put it there so there is some text in their actions. At least that is how I look at it most of the time. W/e the intention, if to me character feels gay, then to me it is part of them. Seriously because of the whole "subtext is evil" and treating it as only queerbait unless they say otherwise, a lot good shows suffer, because people are too focused on wanting more from it than enjoying the things that show does have in itself. Best example from top of my head is Swap Swap, where the MC was gay af and there was a lot of subtext, and I was perfectly fine with it and interperting her as a lesbian without anyone having to confirm it to me, but there was a ton of "helpful" people bashing it, saying it is only subtext, and it will never go anywhere and they are straight (jokes on them, because I heard from friend later we got confirmation about at least 2 girls being actual couple). So yes, to me subtext means there is text, it is just done subtle. That being said...

Minutoh posted:

I just think it would have been better if they made it even more blatant than it actually is and actually said they were dating or whatever. I'm sure there are some who deny Cocona and Papika are together; in doing so, they pretty much misssed the entire point of the fucking series, but I don't think even the most hardcore idiots can deny that "yeah, we're gay and we're dating" means that THE CHARACTERS IN QUESTION ARE GAY AND THEY'RE DATING. I suppose you could argue that there's no need to hammer it into these people's heads, but I can't say that I'm not frustrated when someone completely misses all the subtext...

Pretty much this. I don't mind subtext, but there is really not enough shows that outright states or confirm couples in a way nobody can deny it. I'm tired of defending subtext shows and wish there were more where I don't have to convince people or say "it's not confirmed but it's pretty gay", because show itself would leave no room for interpretation. But I guess ignoring w/e yuri sells or not, until Japan change and finally start acknowledging homosexual relationships as something normal, I guess there is long time before it changes and we all know how slow and unwilling for change Japan is.

I used to be like that before I got into yuri, I missed all the Korrasami signs back when I was watching Korra (I wonder how different my reactions to their interactions would have been if Korra had aired after I had become a yuri fanatic...)

Korrasami is a whole other can of worms. You have no reason to feel bad for not catching it, because there was basically like one scene in entire series (ignoring ending) that had any subtext at all and suggested they start to feel attracted to each other. I had entire rant about it in other Korra thread, I can find it if you want.

Rain Spectre posted:

You know, it's incredible how much more attractive the Bhikhkuni girls are compared to the Mermaid girls. The Mermaid girls look...greasy.

My main 3 problems with Mermaid girls are: huge boobs, huge boobs and huge boobs. In that exact order.

Rain Spectre posted:

Still no idea why they had to make the games main pairing incestuous >>

I fail to find anything wrong with that.

FrostBite92 posted:

Are you sure it's not this? It's short, doesn't contain sex, and has this line "Oh? Senpai, are you weak when someone takes the initiative with you?"

Yes I saw it too, but it didn't quite feel the way I remembered it. It didn't have that "it's it!" moment when checking it. Honestly at this point I feel like I'm just chasing some illusive memory. Thanks for trying anyway,

Faust posted:

From what I heard, it's heavily homoromantic, there's a kiss, they get matching rings they wear on their left ring finger

From what I heard they never really got explicit and all of it can still be easily seen as just subtext and there is plenty of people who doesn't consider it actual yaoi. And the kiss scene is actually not shown, I mean they are only implied to kiss, but they could as well only hug, so there is that. From what I heard, it indeed felt like instead of like old yaois where they were really direct, this one felt more like just a subtext and they were too afraid to go all the way to lose potential audience, so they instead went the well proven, subtext way.

Ha! You're so naive.

I only said I believe we can do better and things will change eventually. I never said it will happen overnight or that it will be fast and easy process. But if people will have attitude like you then sure, it will never change since we have to listen to our superior socially overlords will, because it is absolute. I guess all LGBT+ people can just kill themselves because we are doomed forever anyway, since they will never accept us.

And I come from very regressive country too, but you are right. I forgot 99% of people on earth are idiots that deserve to die. Thanks for reminding me I hate humanity.

There is a pretty good comment there I can sum up as "everyone crave for what they don't have, because they think if they would have it, it would be all better". Also she might be honest with her feelings, but people questioned if she isn't used to further the agenda of "same-sex marriage is bad", so it's also good to take that into consideration.

And also, the rule of ANY society is that the socially inferior MUST ALWAYS accept what the socially superior says, and that's ABSOLUTE.

Define socially inferior and socially superior. If you want to go into social norms, it isn't as much the matter of superiority and inferiority, but majority and minority as in, the things that majority of people consider normal and acceptable, become the norm and people who don't agree with them have to force themselves to fit or are ostracized. That being said, I believe, we are better than that and slowly, but surely we will grow up from that out-dated mind-set and people will just focus on living their lives the way they want instead of policing and criticizing others for how they live theirs.

I'd go for this one. Not sure though, there are many reversal on this site.

I checked all with reversal tag before posting and I didn't find it. I don't think it even had one, because the whole reversing could be 1-2 pages max and didn't even involved sex per se. Just girl taking the lead instead. They might not even sex at all in one shot, just flirt and stuff. At least that is what I remember.

I'm sure there was some one shot with typical dominating character, but the second the submissive one takes the lead dominate looses all her cool, but I don't remember anything else about it. It might not even go like that, but I'm sure I read some story with dominate girl not being able to handle someone taking the lead.

I don't think it was this one https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/pure_hearted_playgirl#2
EDIT/ After thinking more, I think maybe it is the one after all, i just remember it a bit differently, but it does fit. But if anyone has other suggestions feel free to post them.

My bad, I said weebs in quotation, because it feels like for most people there is no difference. It seems that as long as you are into anime/manga just a bit more than average joe, you are already treated like a wierdo. But as I said, I base that assumption on very limited data.

That's still an issue in 2017? Huh. Can't say it's something I personally experience.

I probably should add I do not live in US, but even there I think I still hear people being really taken aback by "weebs"? At least on internet.

themusicman500 posted:

This topic might be overdone, does anyone else sometimes feel a little mixed up inside about liking manga and anime? I have certain friends that really don't approve and I'm always afraid I'm going to be judged.

All the time. Bringing it up or being seen by normies is always a awkward experience.

soooo slooooooow

It's probably because the mangaka is working on Ayakashiko now

Except manga is finished since 2013.

Is this really ended?

It has. It is just not translated yet.

No wonder ayakashiko always get update

I meant Riko & Haru & Irukawa Hot Springs though. The updates are slow because nobody tl it right now (or doesn't have time to), not because mangaka is drawing Ayakashiko, because Riko was already finished ages ago.

Its actually just text since the manga literally talks about Nozomi and Hime dating, and that the reason they dont is that it would make the manga even more niche.

Oh yea, there was something like that. Wasn't it just a joke and breaking the forth wall though?

risingstar3110 posted:

Kinda suck that Centaur Nozomi didn't play up, rather than down the whole Nozomi x Hime part. Like they do include everything, but it seemed that they were trying hard to keep it a subtext instead.

Well it was just subtext in the manga as well. I really can't blame them though, since even if they have to cut some parts, because of the time restrain, they overall are pretty faithful to manga and they keep the lesbian side couple exactly as they were without trying to downplay and/or removing them from the show. They even showed their kiss without much problem, so I don't really think they have anything against yuri.

I've read a lot of fucked up shit, but this one was just... tasteless. I don't understand what you all find hilarious, and this is coming from someone who actually ships incest sometimes (although it's sister/sister) and has the weirdest sense of humor. Not only it felt completely unfunny, but it was ridiculously boring. The jokes were dumb, too. I'm surprised, since ちま usually makes interesting art and comics. Just wanted to write this, since everyone and their mother (...no pun intended) is loving it.

Humor is subjective.

1. Why does she have to ask? Considering I directed it to Nezchan?

2. Is it smart to answer this way(highlighted texts)? If it is trying to be smart-ass in your opinion, I let you be. But I am thinking where is
   this negativity comes from? Why are you answering in behalf of Alice? I believe Alice has the capacity to answer me.

A lot of people seems to miss it, but it is a forum. It's open to everyone so anyone can join the discussion and comment. I'll acknowledge though, that since we don't have a private messages function, that is the only way to make a request like that (although now we got discord server where you can do it directly, but I understand that not everyone use it or are even aware of it). Either way, I replied because you mentioned wanting to get rid of your comments and I didn't think asking for deleting your account will achieve it, which kinda supported Cheshire's point of it being pointless. And while I didn't really meant to speak on her behalf or trying to be mean to you, the way you worded your respond sounded really off to me. It is true that asking for deleting account is surprisingly pretty common here and it's not like in order to register you need to give any personal info. You don't even have to give e-mail from what I remember, so unless you said something in comments, I also couldn't see a reason to specifically ask for deletion of account. So even though what Cheshire asked was pretty neutral and out of curiosity noticing a trend, you seemed to took it really personally as if she was questioning your motives and in some way putting words into your mouth. You simply came off as conceited in your post, which rubbed me the wrong way, because it seemed like there was no need to phrase it like that.

Foxy lady posted:

Why are requests to delete your account here so ridiculously common?

Alice Cheshire,
I am smiling at your comment, and I will answer you. Dynasty Reader had been a very good venue to discuss wdtfs considering the overflowing number of very good commenters. In as much, I wanted my writings to stay in here, I can't. These are reasons I am not willing to disclose.

You'd think if you're done here it'd be easier to just stop using the site or something.

These are reasons you project on me and others who wanted to delete their accounts as you try to grasp our request. But let me assure you that it is NOT "it'd be easier.to just stop using the site or something". :)

Well, I'm not sure, but I think they only delete your account. All your posts probably stay, so this way you just stopping using your account pretty much work the same way. And even if, unless you said some personal stuff about yourself in comments, I agree with Cheshire, there is no much reason to go out of your way to ask for your account to be deleted and all posts being removed. And she doesn't project anything on you. She is just asking. That was a really weird way to put it. If you really want to, just say you got other reasons to want everything gone, but don't try to be smart-ass about it.

sadly this manga made a few mistakes and got pulled before it could show us.

Sadly (most of the times) publishers in Japan care more about popularity than potential.
