I didn't watch the livestream but I've had my eyes set on Xilonen since the first Natlan video. Can't wait to get her.

I'm about >1hr in so I more or less just completed the tutorial(?). I have to set the game at 200% render scaling because the anti-aliasing is terrible at 100%. The mouth movement is a bit odd and the characters move strangely sometimes. There's also a lot going on in the UI and it's not nearly as clean as P3R. There are text boxes that kind of hover around your screen in the city. I'd much prefer it was anchored on the NPCs instead.

Also MC's face looks funny in some angles.

Other than that, the game looks really good. I think they made the atmosphere quite well. I wasn't sure I was going to like it at first as I'm not the biggest fan of fantasy but the introduction with the man talking about "fantasy" was interesting enough.

I'll finish the demo this weekend but I'll buy and play the game after I play the other Persona games first.

Oh I think I've heard of this one. It's honestly crazy what some people do over a videogame.

I've never read this. But reading the title reminds me of post-game League lobbies where people would drop locations for a fist fight.

I don't think they ever push through but its pretty funny sometimes lol

I used to do beets and cmus but eventually moved to MusicBrainz Picard and Strawberrry Music Player. I sync to my phone with syncthing.

I tried to get into this game because I like Rimworld but damn is it so hard to learn. I couldn't even get past the tutorial.

[–] hitagi@ani.social 10 points 1 week ago

Gacha games.

I play Genshin Impact and one gacha is enough for me.

Not expecting to see this today. Those crossover outfits are really cute.

ツンデレサービス~!

At first glance, I thought they were Kronii and Reine.

This thread is like 2 months old and I'm rewatching the episodes of the threads I missed on, so let's go through this via screenshots.

I'm pretty convinced this toilet sign is Ougi and Nadeko. I think it's easy to forgot that Ougi is a boy now.

We finally got the opening for Nademonogatari which features both Kana Hanazawa and Saori Hayami. I don't know if Nademonogatari is the first time I've heard the two together. Both their voices share this characteristic I can't describe in English but when you hear it, you might get what I mean.

I'm certain this is a callback to an older scene in the series. Either Koyomi or Ougi meeting with Tsukihi. You can also say Akira if you'd like.

Marina Inoue sounded completey different here, obviously because this isn't the same Sodachi we knew. She's a lot more compassionate and sister-like to Nadeko. I didn't even recognize her until Nadeko said so herself. I'm actually quite glad Sodachi is doing better here and didn't turn out to be a one-off character in the series (as she kind of came out of nowhere previously).

There really is something about girls cutting their hair short when they want to change something about themselves. It's a really interesting phenomenon that boys don't really have an equivalent to. More interestingly I guess, this scene parallels with Hitagi and Koyomi during Mayoi Snail.

By far the shots that reminded me that Monogatari is "peak cinema", as they say. Live action shots, somewhat reminscent of early 2000s handhelds composited with a running topless Nadeko.

This is the dream.

 
 

Archon Quest Spoilers

Sometimes I forget what happened in previous archon quests (and the story in general). I'm happy I remember Caribert from the cloth tied to his arm though.

His bit with Atossa was really emotional. Especially with the dolls on the tree in his island.

I found Caribert more interesting than the twins for some reason lol. I was a bit disappointed that the traveler doesn't remember their conversation with the other sibling. I was expecting something like what happened in the Sumeru Archon Quest.

I knew there was going to be a gift/ornament though but I wasn't expecting a photograph. It was a bit funny.

Anyway, I can't wait for the next summer event. Genshin Impact's summer events are always fun.

The only screenshot I was able to take:

 

I really like The Cynic Clinic so I wanted to share this video that provides some insight on school roofs which we often don't really think about.

 

I made a comment in the gacha pull thread earlier this month with Tighnari. I was short around ~30 pulls for another 5-star guarantee. I spent the last few days playing through the rest of the Fontaine Archon Quest. With the extra primos and fates, I managed to get Furina today!

KQM also just posted their Furina guide so I guess I'll be spending the next few weeks building her.

 
 
 
 

To anyone who is not familiar with the situation, please read our previous post for context.

Please do not say anything hateful toward the concerned instances' admins.


What happened?

A few hours ago, Lemmy.World and lemmy.dbzer0.com has defederated from ani.social, following the events of Lemmy.ml defederating from ani.social on November 3.

Lemmy.World has given a censure on Fediseer with the reason being "loli". lemmy.dbzer0.com has not given a reason for defederation as of the moment.

We disagree with anyone claiming that ani.social intentionally and knowingly hosts CSAM. We would like to remind everyone that ani.social has a content policy regarding CSAM content since day one. Specifically, our content policy states the following:

  1. Do not submit content depicting a child (both real and virtual) engaged or involved in explicit sexual activities. A child is defined as a person who is under 18 years old; or a person, regardless of age, who is presented, depicted or portrayed as under 18 years old.

To provide some context, the Lemmy developers excluded ani.social from the recently launched join-lemmy.org redesign without any clear reason provided. My pull request to remove ani.social from the exclude-list was denied for the reason being that ani.social is "full of CSAM". Shortly after, ani.social was defederated from Lemmy.ml. The full story may be found on the previous thread.

Numerous threads have since spawned, many of which have comments state that there is no evidence of the claim that ani.social is "full of CSAM" and that the decision was unfair. These threads include:

We respectfully ask the admins of Lemmy.World, lemmy.dbzer0.com, and Lemmy.ml to review the situation and our policies, and consider reversing your decision if there is no evidence that ani.social intentionally and knowingly hosts CSAM.

What now?

If you are a user of ani.social and wish to see content from Lemmy.World and lemmy.dbzer0.com, we kindly ask you to move to a different instance that is federated with all three instances.

If you are a user of Lemmy.World or lemmy.dbzer0.com and wish to see content from ani.social, we kindly ask you to send a request to your respective admins to reverse their decisions after reviewing the situation.

To all other Fediverse instance admins, we kindly ask you to carefully review our instance and its policies before defederating from us.

To all ani.social users, please do not forget to report content that violates our content policy.

My personal thoughts

As the admin of ani.social, I sincerely apologize to all our users regarding the defederation from three major Lemmy instances. I believe that this is my fault for not communicating our policies clearly enough. I will continue working toward a solution regarding this matter so please be patient.

Thank you for reading this, and I appreciate everyone's support.

 

Please do not say anything hateful to the Lemmy.ml admins or the developers. Before commenting on this thread, please read the post completely.


We (ani.social) have been defederated from Lemmy.ml a few hours ago presumably for the reason of being "full of CSAM" which I disagree.

What happened?

The Lemmy developers recently launched the new redesigned join-lemmy.org webpage which provides information about Lemmy and a list of servers that people can join. The redesign looks great! It details a lot of new and useful stuff such as a categorized server list and mobile apps. However, I noticed that our instance (ani.social) was not in the list despite previously being there before the redesign.

After looking through the joinlemmy-site code, I discovered that ani.social was added to the "excluded" list in a commit a few weeks ago. I thought that this was a mistake so I made a pull request to remove us from the excluded list (and also to add our instance's category and language).

Unfortunately, the pull request was closed with a comment that reads "No, that is full of CSAM". The thread was locked so I couldn't reply. I tried to reach out to the developers via Matrix, politely explaining that ani.social has a content policy rule against CSAM which reads:

  1. Do not submit content depicting a child (both real and virtual) engaged or involved in explicit sexual activities. A child is defined as a person who is under 18 years old; or a person, regardless of age, who is presented, depicted or portrayed as under 18 years old.

Unfortunately, my invitation was rejected and I did not hear back from them.

Shortly after, I discovered that Lemmy.ml had defederated from ani.social. The last post ani.social received from Lemmy.ml was just after the pull request was closed.

What does this mean?

This means that no user from ani.social can interact with communities from Lemmy.ml and vice versa. This affects those who subscribe to communities from that instance.

This also affects the anime community on Lemmy as a whole because the biggest anime discussion community resides on Lemmy.ml (!anime@lemmy.ml) in which their episode discussion bot, @shinobu@ani.social, is hosted here. It's very concerning that as an anime-themed instance, we're now completely disconnected from this community and other related communities.

This also affects ani.social in the long run as our exclusion from the join-lemmy.org webpage will reduce our visibility. The exclusion from join-lemmy.org and defederation from Lemmy.ml may also prompt other instance admins to defederate from us. Generally, ani.social will be seen in a very bad light.

As the admin of ani.social, I genuinely feel heartbroken after what had happened. Not only do I feel like I'm doing a poor job of building ani.social but I also feel like I've disrespected the work of the Lemmy developers. I really apologize to those who are affected by this. I hope that this is just a misunderstanding and I will do my best to resolve this problem.
