Oh yowch, I hope ya get all rested up, but I'm glad that it sounds like aside from the exhaustion you're well! That's good to hear! ^^

I'm doing pretty well, super busy with school, but else than that, I've been great! Haha, I also got some video games yesterday so that's been fun! D'you play much video games?

Ahh, yeah school is rough. Good luck on it though.
 I actually love video games, not that I guess anyone would be able to tell given my total lack of fanart .w. Right now I'm trying to finish up bravely default, and my friend is pushing me to get back to pokemon sun.

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 01:26:50 +0000 UTC]

Haha thanks, it's my final year, so I'm glad that there's at least that. ^^

And ooh I see! (Lol also fanart is hard.) But that's pretty cool, I know I've heard of Bravely Default, though I haven't checked it out, is it any good? Though I have checked out that other game, as of Christmas. It's pretty fun, Team Skull makes me chuckle. XD D'you like it though?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 01:39:04 +0000 UTC]

(fan art is super hard ._.) Bravely Default is a lot of fun, and the story is pretty good if you can get around the sometimes cheesy script and also the fact that the entire plot only happens because no one communicates ever. Kids say "Man y'all are doing awful things I can't believe you" adults say "we have our reasons" but it never quite gets to the point where we have "well what are they" and we find out. And then when we do find out it's "... well, too late to stop now, let's just finish it"
Though I suppose that's because most of the encounters that give you that information are technically optional ._.

I do like Pokemon as a whole, and the changes they made in sun and moon are interesting, I've just been rather unmotivated to finish. I like playing games on my own primarily, so having a friend 120% excite about it is.... extremely demotivating, actually. I'll finish eventually though ^^
while we're on the topic of Pokemon, what's your favorite pokemon or pokemon type? and also because I'm curious, which pokemon game was your first?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 01:49:25 +0000 UTC]

(It's like a special form of torture, idek)
And oh I see, lol, it sucks when stuff like that happens in a game, it just gets a bit ugh. But I'm glad that aside from that its fun and stuff! But like seriously, it's annoying whenever games have those character that are completely hated over a misunderstanding that could easily be cleared up. >~> But regardless, I'm super glad you're having fun with it, I bet its great!

Haha I figured when you said they were pushing you to play, that it must be bothersome. But good luck for when you do ultimately win it!

And ooh when it comes to Pokemon, my favorite Pokemon type is Fairy type! And I mean I don't have a favorite pokemon particularly, I just genuinely like anything that's really really cute! Like I'm the person who picks teams based on cuteness, and won't let Pokemon evolve too much. (For example, in the new game, I got a Popplio, and evolved it to Brionne BUT IT WILL NEVER EVOLVE AGAIN bcuz I don't give a turd about it being strong. Except when I do nuzlockes.)

Also my first game was X, so I'm honestly relatively new to the franchise. What about you, which pokemons do you like? And what was your first game? Oh and to add a question to the mix, d'you have a favorite npc character, from any of the games?

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 02:07:58 +0000 UTC]

I knoow... but yes, it's fun~ I love Tiz. So much. Cute small child >u<

Haha, he's always well meaning, but he gets carried away a lot. Thanks~

Ahh, fairy types are a good choice. For me, I like ghost types. I really like cute pokemon too, but I always let them evolve. I just make sure their final evolution is something cute! My all time favorite pokemon has to be Litwick, hands down. It was my fire type in my very first game, and I loved her dearly. She's a level 72 Chandelure now...

If it wasn't already apparent, my first pokemon game was White. Not that much earlier than you, really. Only one gen ^^
Ahh, it's been a long time since I've thought about npcs/rivals and such. Hau is such a cute kid though and I like him. I liked fighting N because I liked the theme of opposing ideals that he brought to the table. So I guess you could say they're favorites ^^

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 02:18:27 +0000 UTC]

Haha gotcha, gotcha!

And ooh yeah some ghosts are super cute (I must say Litwicks are really hard to resist, they are adorable! That's a really neat favorite!)
Do you have any Pokemon plushies? Sometimes I see those in stores, they're really cool!

And ohhh I see! White was a really good game. Everyone told me about that generation, and it's my favorite story.
Oh neat! That's interesting to hear! Part of me still wonders if Hau is my only rival as he took the weaker Pokemon. (He probably is though, because I got the Fire Z thing already.) I really like N too though, he's a really interesting character in my opinion, including design wise.

Oh d'you ever have one of those friends who knows exactly what characters in a game you'll like, before you play it? In Sun, a friend of mine, literally guessed all of my favorite characters right. XD Maybe I'm personally just predictable, but d'you ever have anyone just be like, "yeah there's this one person and you'll like em"?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 02:34:11 +0000 UTC]

yesss, litwicks man. I don't have any official ones, but my childhood friend crocheted me a litwick for my birthday last year. It was super nice of her ^^
how about you?

Ahh, really? I always heard that the fandom had a lot of mixed feelings about Black/White. Nice to hear people are saying nice things about it.

Yeah that is a bit odd. I feel like in earlier games the rival took the pokemon strong against you if there was only one... huh.

Yup, I have a friend like that. He doesn't do it often because I don't trust him not to spoil (this is the friend who gets really excited about stuff, so once he gets going he tends to accidentally spoil a lot) But when he does, he's usually right.

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 03:05:05 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow that's so cool! That must've been hard work, I bet that was an exciting gift! What a sweet friend! >w< b
I bought a Sylveon plushie once, and while I played Pokemon Go, I'd bring it with me everywhere.

And oh really? I didn't realize that, maybe it's because I joined the fandom much later, and then people who did like it were the primary people talking about it? I mean, I really liked the rivals, the enemies, and heck some gym leaders. (I was very underwhelmed with the Pokemon XY gen's enemy team, their outfits were kinda... Derpy. Though not to say I disliked that game, it was pretty fun!)

And yeah, I know right? So I've been just like "Huh..." Still wondering if a new rival will show but I uh doubt it. It probably makes sense though, I mean, he does sound laidback, and like he only battles for fun, not caring if he wins or loses. I really like Lillie though, and a few other characters, like that one kid who looks related to her, and Ilima. (Oh gosh, I'm serious, whenever a video game has a pink haired boy, I just like am so happy.)

And oh I see then! That makes sense though, haha. But interesting to hear someone else has someone like that, and neat to hear he's right! Wait so speaking of which, what kinds of characters are you most susceptible to like, in games, and stories, and stuff?

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 15:26:05 +0000 UTC]

Sorry for the delay, some friends of mine dragged me off to play league of legends and then it was too late =w=;;;

Yeah! I love it. It's sitting in a place of honor bc I don't wanna accidentally ruin it by keeping it on my bed .w.

That could be it, though to be fair, I never saw too much of what the fandom said. What I think was the case may not have been. I don't have a clue =u= Black/white is probably my favorite though. It was my first and all my favorite pokemon are there. I'm really excited for pokemon bank to update for the new game so I can bring a bunch of my old pokemon back. I dunno if I'll bring my old team up as I have some unfinished business in it, but I did some breeding and got like five snivys, which I'm taking to alola as soon as the bank updates, as well as some litwicks ^^

Ahh, you like the pink haired boys huh. x3 It's not a common hair color so that's interesting.
It's kind of hard for me to pick out the kinds of characters I usually like? Mostly because there's so many. I'm fond of the cold sadistic sorts, I'm a huge sucker for nice kid sad life, I like snarky characters because same, and trickster/whimsical villains. It really depends on the show and how well the character is portrayed though. It's pretty easy to tell once you've seen the behavior of most of my favs though, I'm really predictable .w.

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 17:27:11 +0000 UTC]

Haha no worries, no worries! I hope you guys had a ton of fun playing that!

And aww gotcha, that's sweet. I bet that makes your friend happy to see!

Haha oh gotcha, gotcha! That'll be awesome when that happens, and then you'll have a freaking Snivy army, and a Litwick one too woah. O-O So you use the bank though? That's pretty neat! I must admit Black and White had some neat Pokemon, I can only wish fairy types had come out a generation earlier, though, lol. Speaking of cute Pokemon, I just got the freaking cutest thing ever in Sun, a Fomantis, it turns into a really really pretty Pokemon, called a Lurantis. OwO I named him Tori, after a character from some phone game I play.

Haha yeah it's really not, especially not on boys. >^> Though at least there's some out there!

Haha gotcha, that makes a lot of sense though. Sometimes people like a looot of character types, (Or even just everyone) But those sound like interesting character types! And oh I totally get what you mean by character portrayal. If there's ever characters that share some sort of trait with me, and then they do things that make sense, it kind of bugs me. Same with characters that are portrayed in a way that makes them seem unlikable, for no real reason.

I tend to like dark twisted character types, myself. I mean, I like a degree of lightheartedness, but I also like a bit of darkness to stuff. (Which is why I like Durarara and Alice in the Country of Hearts) I also really enjoy characters that have multiple sides, particularly manipulative characters. Which is unfortunate because I can overuse that in my own characters. XD

Oh what kind of genres/types of stories do you like?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 18:21:02 +0000 UTC]

^^

I don't really use the bank, but I intend to once it updates. There's just too many cute pokemon that are hard to find in alola. Plus as you said, gotta have my snivy army u_u I admit though fomantis and lurantis are the bomb. I love almost every grass type in alola and it's so hard not to have a full grass/fairy team because they're all so cuuuute.

Ahh, Durarara, huh? I've only watched the first season, but it was a good show ^^ My favorite type of show is usually the kind that starts out seeming cute and innocent and fun and then a plot twist happens and everything gets just a bit more sinister. I'm not above more fun happy stories, I just like the emotions that come with watching everything the main character thought was real crash down around them and everyone dies. I dunno, I'm one of those creators who enjoys tormenting their characters like a horrible person xD
though of late I've been trying to tone down the backstories I end up giving them for more variety. Variety is important u_u

Anyways to more specifically answer your question, I like psychological, mystery, typically shounen anime, horror to a small extent, and comedy. ^^
How about you?

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 18:56:06 +0000 UTC]

Ah gotcha, that makes sense though! Part of me doubts I personally would use the bank, just because I like completely resetting my game usually, however... If I ever get a shiny, I am never losing that. (My sister also has most the games I have, so I'd totally send it to her, if I ever intended to restart.) Speaking of which, have you ever gotten a shiny?

Also yes ohmigosh, when I went against the Lurantis totem, I was just like so freaking determined to catch my own because it was so beautiful and I NEEDED it. It is now my precious, that I need to evolve. Also, random mention, WonderTrade is awesome, I'm still at the second island, but I got a Mimikyu and a Vulpix, and a Litten from it. >w< All perfect for my cute brigade!

Oh yeah I love shows like that! You have pretty good taste in my opinion! Also yeah, torturing ocs is awesome! XD I get the feeling I do that myself. Speaking of which, I need to work more on my visual novel. >~>' Also I agree with variety, like... How does one tell one homocidal maniac from another? I need to work on that lol. I mean, I legit have three black haired, anorexic scary people, with red eyes, and bangs covering one eye.

And ooh that's all pretty cool! I like shoujo, psychological, mystery, horror, romance, magical girls, and cute things. Though uh, my parents veto my viewing of most things containing any of that stuff. They mainly like action, and sci-fi, so that's most of what I end up getting to watch. ^^' I'm not the biggest fan, but to each their own.

I'm pretty much just getting it for the poketransfer so I don't have to work hard for my favorites. It'll help with completing the pokedex, too. I have not earned a shiny, but when I was borrowing someone elses bank for a transfer (because I wanted my snivy and litwick brigade at least in sapphire), they put a shiny mew in my box while I wasn't looking. It was really nice of them ^^

Ahh yeah wondertrade. I gotta try it out sometime, I've seen the friends get some cool stuff from there ^^ Mimikyu is on my list of "things I'm getting eventually". So cute.

I'm reaaally mean to my ocs, and my usual story planning buddy doesn't help. He encourages me way too much and I feel sort of bad because they can't have nice things xD
Variety is a hard thing to master. I think my biggest downfall is always that I end up liking short characters, so I have a huge pile of tiny children. Plus I don't like drawing people without bangs so there's that as well ._.
personality-wise, they usually fall into pretty distinct archetypes, but hopefully with enough differences that no one realizes I've used the same archetype a couple times ouo;;;;

Ahh, that's a shame. What are some of your favorite shows/movies?

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-27 22:39:51 +0000 UTC]

Oh wow I see, that's so awesome of them by the way! Like what a nice thing to do >w<

Wondertrade is really great! A tenth of the time, le sigh, my sister gave me something I didn't want, and I've been trying to get something good out of wondertrade for a long while no-OH I just finally got something I like >w< It's a Mareanie! And yeah, Mimikyu is cool, part of me wishes a tad bit it had variants, but either way I love it!

Haha gotcha. Poor precious oc babies. >< But you can always make an AU where they're allowed happiness Then you can rip that out of their grasp too.
Haha gotcha, don't worry, I get some of those feels. For example, I never draw people with short hair that most irl people will have. At most, half their head is shaved. (Bangs are also freaking awesome.)

Haha oh yeah, I get the distinct archetype feel. I mean, yeah. But fortunately, archetypes do exist for a reason, and they aren't really a bad thing. >w
Hrmmm! Well I must say, with movies, some I particularly enjoy are Clue, Addams Family, and Scott Pilgrim VS. the World. And with shows, I really enjoyed My Hero Academia, and Shugo Chara. Oh I also really liked this one show, that just finished airing a season, called Dirk Gently's Hollistic Detective Agency.

What about you? Any faves?

 I don't watch a lot of movies these days, mostly animated films and marvel, and I wouldn't really call any of them my favorite. In terms of shows, recent picks are Magical Girl Raising Project, Re:Zero, Mob Psycho 100, and The Disastrous Life of Saiki K~

And oh I see! Huh I've heard of a couple of those, unfortunately I've yet to get a chance to check any out though (I do have my eye on Mob and MGRP though). But that's pretty cool! I don't think I've heard of Disastrous Life though, but yeah!

Oh what was the first anime you ever watched?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-27 23:58:29 +0000 UTC]

Mob was adorable and I enjoyed every minute of it. ONE's writing style always has a good balance of drama and humor, and the story concept was, though simple, well executed.
I haven't finished raising project yet, but what I've seen so far I've liked. I won't say anything except that it's a wonderful happy anime :^)
Re:Zero is, as the full title literally states, a story about a guy by the name of Subaru finding himself in a fantasy world. As far as stereotypical premises go, even the main character knows what to expect. Or at least, he thinks he does. It's well presented, and more accurate than most of the fandom thinks it is. I've seen a lot of complaints, both about the romance, and the main characters actions throughout, and though I found some of his moves quite irritating, I did understand why he was making them and it did make sense.
In any case, again, I wont say any more than that except that it's a happy fun anime <3

Saiki is a school life anime about a boy who has every psychic power. Unlike every other series I mentioned, it's a comedy that was released in five minute episodes. The titular character, Saiki, makes friends(not of his own will), solves issues(to make everyone shut up), all the while trying to be as average as possible to avoid attention. If you're actually looking for some lightweight entertainment, this one is a good one.

But yeah! Thanks for the summaries, that's really nice of you to do, >w< I hope it wasn't too much work for you or anything, but I'll make sure to check out some of em, so it shan't be in vain!! >w< b

Ohh, shoot I forgot to answer your question xD The first anime I ever watched was, I think, Naruto. I started watching it because I had read the manga and thought it would be cool.

Anyways, yeah, they're all good and I think you'll enjoy them ^^ (don't worry, you aren't alone)

Aw, don't feel like you have to. I wrote them because I like telling people about the anime I like ^^ I'm glad you found them helpful. =w=

Oh I see! Was it any good? Lolz I've shockingly never seen it. My first anime was some obscure thing called Parallel Dual. XD

And ooh okay, don't worry, I won't check em out, out of a sense of duty. I legitimately have been wondering what to watch lately, they sounds like pretty cool animes, so it gives me le tips on what I can watch. ^^

Oh, what kind of music do you like?

xXSnowBug In reply to Divine-Designz [2016-12-28 04:57:37 +0000 UTC]

It was okay. If I tried to watch it now though I'd definitely cringe. It's honestly the kind of story you need to grow up with to like =u=;;;
Honestly I think it's okay you never saw it. The popular three anime at that point didn't live up to the hype... I still read the manga for each from time to time >u>

If I'm gonna be 100% real, the really popular anime usually aren't that great in general. I mean, look at SAO ._.

Umm, I listen to a bunch of random stuff. Usually things I've heard around from friends for "normal" music, but I'm fond of vocaloid music mostly. I listen to a lot of Ghost, sometimes EmpathP, I'm also fond of the covers on Studio VOXYZ. I used to like Circus and I still listen to his stuff from time to time, but they're usually the collabs with Crusher .w.
How about you?

Divine-Designz In reply to xXSnowBug [2016-12-28 05:05:06 +0000 UTC]

Haha that does make sense! And I definitely do agree that they didn't feel like they were hyped properly to me. >~> I know some animes I personally would think are more deserving, for example, like you say SAO, was reaaaally bad. Log Horizon however, also involves people trapped in a video game, but actually implemented a lot of mechanics actually suited for a video game, and all around, was a lot more interesting, in my personal opinion.

And oh neat! Haha, my closest to normal music, is like... Christian rock, but usually I also listen to Vocaloid stuff. Particularly fond of TadanoCo, and Deco27, and I also like some dubbers, such as Rachie, Jubyphonics, NateWantsToBattle, and LeeandLie. ^^ But really those are just the main notable names at the moment! >w<

I agree with your opinion honestly, Log Horizon was much better handled and was more interesting to watch.

ahh, yeah yeah. I listen to a lot of relient k. It's probably the only christian band I still listen to these days. Everything else kind of feels heavy handed and too pop ish.
I don't listen to too many dubbers, but I do recognize some of those names at least ^^

[sorry if this shows up weird I somehow entered the comment too early owo;;;; ]

Oh so you've seen Log Horizon too? Most people I know haven't. (Some people who I know, have argued with me that SAO is really good, and showcases video games better than LH, and I'm just like... Uh Log Horizon actually has video game mechanics) But yeah SAO had a good premise in my opinion, and I was excited to watch it, just it left me wanting more out of it. (Besides that, if I overlook their issues with handling it, I feel like they should've stuck with the first game longer.)

Oh yeah, Relient K is pretty good! D'you have a favorite song by them?

Gotcha, dubbers I must admit, are controversial as well. Sometimes I just like listening to what the song is talking about, because I'm too lazy to read the subtitles lol. But regardless, music is pretty cool! ^^

(No worries! It happens to everyone!)

Yeah! I watched Log Horizon after SAO. As far as comparing the two, I would actually take this moment to point out that SAO was meant to show the SAO incident and aftermath, which is why the first game didn't show everything and honestly didn't play around with the mechanics that much. Despite the base concept being more or less the same, the focus points are very different which accounts for their different presentations(though I do agree, a little more time in the actual SAO game would have been nice). I didn't like SAO primarily for character development reasons, namely the main character doesn't get much until like.... Alicization >u>;;;;;; He felt kind of flat for most of the series and they ignored his emotional weaknesses whenever they were inconvenient. Also due to the way his character ran, you actually don't get to see most of his development in the anime proper. It was mostly told through narration and his thoughts in the books, which adds to the lack of characterization and general flat feel ._.

I also have issues with Asuna and the fact that the fandom has a point that she can seem awfully useless at times despite being a top player. She was meant to be someone who would stay at Kirito's side and be his equal, but far too often it was really just "Kirito needs a girl to save"(despite the fact that I feel like Kirito would need saving just as much as the rest of them). I also have this issue with... every... other... female... in the story ._. If it was only one or two throughout, it would have been fine (Like Liz and Silica made sense to an extent since they were both somewhat underleveled for their respective situations), but when it's literally every female in the story, nearly every time something goes wrong, there's a problem. Especially with a high level character as headstrong as Asuna.
I've heard other people complain about a lot of things with SAO, but the overall weak characterization and more or less bad excuse for a harem are my problems with it.

I'm sorry, SAO is one of those things that gets me on my soap box. I'll stop myself here because I'll rant for ages about why Kirito could have been a good character .w.

I like a lot of Relient K songs, but if I had to pick one... maybe Come Right Out and Say it? How about you?

I mean, personally I like english versions of songs. I actually have a couple of JubyPhonic's kagepro covers memorized .w. At the same time though, it can be hard to make the song sound good and retain the original meaning, so I guess I can see why some people would dislike them.

Haha you make some good points about the characterization, I haven't read the manga, but Kirito was very flat. He really felt to me, just like a character created to be replaced with male viewers for wish fulfillment, which would of been fine, if it was moreso marketed as a harem anime(Honestly, that fact become all the more clear in the video games, where you can make the girl characters where very... Revealing, clothes. Idk why some people argue with me, about it being a harem anime.). But yeah, I bet you're right. Kirito was not handled well, nor was Asuna. They could've made these characters decent but, to be entirely honest, throughout the series, there's like four people who I enjoyed, till the point I quit watching. Klaus, Silica, Lisbeth, and Nagata.

But yeah, this show had potential, and the characters had potential, it's a bit of a disappointment, that it wasn't able to live up to the hype.

Same, they have some good songs. My favorite song probably isn't very original, but I really enjoyed "Be My Escape" It was really pretty, and fun to listen to. ^^

Oh I see! And haha me too, me too. I loved her Kagepro covers. ^^ And they definitely pointed me towards a pretty interesting anime, with neat characters. (My favorites being, Marry, Kano, and Kuroha.) But yeah, I'm really into Vocaloid stuff, I've been too busy lately, but sometimes I try to make my own covers, which aren't that good, but they're fun to try making. ^^
