Isn’t hate merely the result of wounded love?
Amy Tan, The Joy Luck Club (via books-n-quotes)
Some say hate is a strong word, but that’s normal.
Reblog if you agree.
I don’t know why I did another one of these when I could’ve worked on an update. Oh well
You goddamned, beautiful liar.

The Great Gatsby- F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther… . And then one fine morning
— So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past. ”- Nick Carraway

The Wise Man’s Fear- Patrick Rothfuss
“I thought of all the others who had tried to tie her to the ground and failed. So I resisted showing her the songs and poems I had written, knowing that too much truth can ruin a thing. And if that meant she wasn’t entirely mine, what of it? I would be the one she could always return to without fear of recrimination or question. So I did not try to win her and contented myself with playing a beautiful game. But there was always a part of me that hoped for more, and so there was a part of me that was always a fool.”- Kvothe

I have not broken your heart- you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine.“- Heathcliff

Anna Karenina- Leo Tolstoy
“Love. The reason I dislike that word is that it means too much for me, far more than you can understand.“- Anna Karenina

Okay, I’ve been an otome game player for more than six years and as many people know otome games are one of my favorite game genre. I’ll play anything as long I have the money and if I am interested in the plot and the characters. This said, I never thought much of the heroines in otome games.
Disclaimer: What I say in this post relects my opinion and does not in any way represent the views of other otome gamers.
I personally do not understand the hate the heroine in these games get. The heroines get critized for often being bland, clumsy, stupid and naive. Having read these opinions so many times I found myself asking: What is wrong with being clumsy? What is wrong with being naive? Is naivety a sign for lack of intelligence? I wonder what is wrong with being a little clumsy.
Another word caught my eye as well and that it “weak”. How do people define weakness and what makes otome game heroines weak? I wonder how people define this. Many otoge have very unrealistic plots and the heroines face a lot of very strange situations that we as the player do not experience in real life, so I wonder how the ‘weak’ comments come from.
There are a lot of women who are very clumsy and naive. Are they bad examples of women if they are this way? Are clumsy and naive women naive? Does are woman have to fit into the picture of the out-spoken, extroverted and confident woman? Isn’t there otoge heroine who stand up for themselves? Are clumsiness, naivety and shyness a sign for the lack of independence? Isn’t it possible to be naive, shy and clumsy and be strong and independent?
I really wonder why otoge heroines are hated?
My personal prerelease predictions are as follows:
Saihara Shuuichi is evil and the first chapter’s killer. Kaede is going to lie for him and defend him and she nearly fucks everyone over because of it. His victim is Amami Rantarou because he learned too much about him and realized his true intentions. If he isn’t the first chapter’s killer, he’s the traitor/mastermind and he shouldn’t be trusted. Something is totally up with this guy, and not in a good way. To further elaborate on this, look at Amami and Shuuichi’s designs alone. By themselves, Shuuichi appears to be the “evil” one, and it is only because of Amami’s resemblance to Komaeda that people think Amami will be crazy. The game won’t go in the same direction again with a crazed hope fanatic and a detective as our faithful partner. The ship is being set up to be broken.
Everyone is blackened and had their memories erased. They were gathered from all over the country by the government because they escaped their own killing games by being the culprits. They killed someone, got away with the murder, and everyone else in their games was executed for their escape. The government has locked them up together but Monokuma fucks things up and takes over.
Nobody but Amami has a talent and everyone was given artificial memories to believe they had a talent. These talents are their past childhood dreams that were somehow broken, either with Iruma being unable to invent enough to be the SHSL Inventor, Kaito never becoming a real astronaut, Ryoma having his tennis career broken because of his crimes, etc. It isn’t that they have no talent at all, but that they never became the best at what they did.
The vine/spiderweb execution is Korekiyo Shinguuji’s execution. The flamethrower bit is not part of it. It will be in a setting representing hell and his crime will have something to do with selfishness and seeing “beauty in hell”. His crime will have something to do with Gonta or Kirumi (but I sway towards Gonta).
The boo'ing execution is Kokichi Ouma’s execution. The people are a crowd overthrowing their dictator. (Could also be Himiko’s, but I think she’ll be a survivor.)
Angie Yonaga will kill Tsumugi and use her artistic talents to “fake” a cosplay on her corpse. Most people will assume that Tsumugi put on the cosplay herself, but Angie painted it onto her to confuse everyone.
Amami Rantarou is the first victim. As much as I hate to say this since I love Amami, it seems fairly likely. He’s the SHSL Analyst.
Ryoma Hoshi is a victim. I suppose he’ll have a tragic backstory as to why he had to kill those mafia members, and then he’ll show up dead.
Survivor Predictions: Kaede, Gonta, Kaito, Iruma, Himiko

Some CGs I toyed around with (I don’t really know how to edit/redraw stuff, I just painted over the CGs lol)
I fixed the fixable CGs that Ray doodled all over (really Ray?? =_=) and added some of my own eyes on MC (stupid long bangs always in the way lol)
Already shared on my amino a while ago, but why not here too. Might do some more MC eyes cuz I like drawing eyes =w=

What girl gamers face This quest seriously infuriated me, but i love that Pixelberry included such an important issue in one of its quests and overcame it in such a brilliant way.
