…just saying:

1. Yixuan + Ju Fufu

2. Velina + Norma

3. Zhu Yuan + Qingyi

I’m gonna get some heat for this one, oh boy…

but someone has to say the truth of it all.

As much as I enjoy your stuff, AyyLmao, I have to respectfully say that… you’re just not getting it here.

1. The skins are just AWFUL. Pomni literally looks NO BETTER (worse even) than the models used by all the softcore NSFW content farmers 😂 & Jax is just the definition of uncanny 😮‍💨 They should be SO MUCH BETTER! Considering the fact that GLITCH employs UE5 for their animations, it’s kinda ridiculous that they couldn’t get it right for a COLLAB WITH THE BIG IP OF THE COMPANY THAT CREATED IT! Then again, this is a company so pathetic their own country couldn’t even screen the so-called “finale” to their biggest success so far for a DAMN while 🤨

2. GLITCH has become a sellout. That’s the truth no one wants to accept (including me, trust 🙏), but yeah… the modern web/indie animation community props up GLITCH on the mentality of “They’re NOT like stinky DISNEY‼️” when they literally have been copying off of Disney’s playbook. Buying out everything in entertainment? GLITCH Presents (personally, I hope they just… shut that down. I really hate the idea that GLITCH thinks they can just get away with something like that 🫤). Forcing down the hammer on fan projects that didn’t deserve it? That one TADC dating simulator (not the one you might’ve seen around recently) & the MD analog horror made by @Unknowingly., the guy behind that AWESOME Godzilla analog horror “The Man in the Suit.” Constantly shoving merch down our throats on some “IT WILL SUPPORT US 😁😁😁😁😁😁” crap? FREAKING GAMEOVERSE COULDN’T ESCAPE THAT IN ITS PILOT!! & of course, Disney whoring itself to every IP under the sun? Yep. Exactly what’s happening here.

3. One major gripe I have with GLITCH is that they operate on a frustrating “TRAILBLAZER (any of you like HSR?) OF INDIE” mindset. They’re not the first to do this kinda thing. You even mention it with other indie games having already come to Fortnite! & even if we are specifying on shows… so what? It’s not like any web/indie series is obligated to do what GLITCH is doing here. Trailblazing =/= Trackmaking. If only they understood that…

4. I’m sorry if I come off as rude, but “I’d rather take an indie show in Fortnite than some random celebrity or brand any day of the week” is the PERFECT EXAMPLE of the very worst thing about the GLITCH, indie animation, & modern western animation communities at large: their sense of superiority. Maybe consider the fact that TADC might just be SOME RANDOM BRAND to other people who aren’t aware of it or don’t care for it as much as you & your community!? Those other collabs that you’re hand waving with that statement are equally as valuable to Fortnite as TADC. TADC isn’t special in Fortnite, it’s just another collab. & like those at GLITCH & Epic who probably worked hard on this (credit where credit’s due, I am NOT going after the artists behind this ❤), all of the other Fortnite collabs have real effort put into them! They CANNOT be tossed away as “random!” The artists over at miHoYo worked hard on bringing Kafka & Blade over to the game. But under this lane of thinking, they’re just a RANDOM BRAND. Same thing with the Sabrina Carpenter collab; I guess the artists over at Epic Games used their energy on a RANDOM CELEBRITY. I hate the way that this community views all other forms of animation as being less artistically valuable & deserving of support. I can GUARANTEE you some people in these fandoms have probably dismissed that AWESOME-looking new Disney show “Dragon Striker” as being “mainstream slop.” The NERVE to stop that low & insult another piece of art like that… An independently-made piece of art & any other piece of art have the SAME LEVEL OF PASSION PUT INTO THEM! I HATE this mentality so much. Ugh…

5. Can we all please, PLEASE just stop painting those who are critical of GLTICH as being “fake fans” or stupid or doing something wrong?? Most of the people who have raised these critiques are probably still passionate fans of this company or AT LEAST one of their shows. It devalues real discussion around this company by saying that stuff like not liking a skin or actually challenging their indie status (which, like, THERE IS A POINT at which you stop being indie…) is invalid. Seriously!

I don’t mean to hate on you or ANYBODY here that may disagree with me! Please, if you think I might’ve missed the forest for the trees, feel free to yap about it 👍 But I have to be blunt here: I’m not a fan of your perspective on this situation, because it’s captures EXACTLY why the modern web/indie animation community sucks. My opinion? This collab is lame as hell, GLITCH is a massive fraud these days, & the backlash is justified.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be streaming Dragon Striker & falling deeper & DEEPER in love with Yao Guang from HSR. TADC’s gonna end in a couple of days anyway, right? 🫥

HOW DID I MISS THIS!? HELLO!?!? LITERALLY THE SPECIAL DAY FOR MY 2ND BIGGEST GENSHIN IMPACT CRUSH!?!?!?

sigh

Happy Birthday, Lisa Minci! You are maybe the MOST nostalgic miHoYo character for me, I can't TELL you how much I crushed on this woman back in 2021

Maybe... maybe the Sunbringer & Ramielle are familially connected with each other? I don't know, I just think about that one scene from the S3 teaser & I'm just getting "little sis Void Hunter goes to her big sis Bangboo creator for help" vibes...

Go ahead & wish a Happy Birthday to Zenagi, THE Yanagi Tsukishiro main of the Internet!

there are 2 sides to this coin

MAAAAAAAN!

It's been exactly 1 year since I made this post: https://www.tumblr.com/dnlthgrcldx2/785206622014357504/happy-new-month-of-june

...

Welp, damn.

Those are far-gone days now... but hey, I might as well recreate it, right?

Before that, though – LISTEN TO VILDHJARTA THIS INSTANT!

Seriously, they're the best. ever.

Happy New Month of JUNE!

4 things [one for each letter of this month...]:

Google's Pride Month Doodle is A LOT calmer than last year's... it's based on disco, which is THE old-but-gold music genre

2. Recently got back into The Music Freaks on account of RozyClozy comin' out with S2 this year!! It's gonna ROCKKKKKKKK!

3. Currently trying to convince my brother to watch Glitch Techs because, oh, I don't know, MIKO KUBOTA IS MY BIGGEST CARTOON CRUSH NO DEBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE!

4. The first album I listened to as an adult was none other than Wonder What's Next by Chevelle! This was back in January, but STILL!

No lie, does anyone else think that Dialyn has maybe the best design in ALL of Zenless? I fell in love with her ON SIGHT!

Happy Birthday, Dialyn! Have fun with your Unit, they're gonna give you a special time, I'm sure.

Also...now you're a cat mom, have fun with that XD
