Still going to continue to use Twitter mainly for the time being (thankfully my mobile app hasn't been changed yet but who knows how long that'll last), but in case anyone would like to follow my other backup accounts, here are my deets!
@sunally01
It's annoying because they did do it with Sumeru so we know they CAN do it if they want, but then from Fontaine onwards they just didn't seem to care that much about their female fanbase anymore. 😔
Just noticed that there's some confusion in the English-speaking Inuyasha fandom about the characters in the sequel and which girl is whose daughter, so thought I'd do a quick summary/very rough translation of the character profiles on the official website!

Dear Al Jazeera
Please look at

Many Japanese cartoonists, artists stand with Handala.
I am the organizers of this project.
I would like you to post an article about this project in Japan.
If you need photos, please say me
This is our site
Wow I was not expecting my tweet to go beyond my tiny circle of moots.But good to know the community of husbando enjoyers feels so strongly about this issue, haha!
To those saying that likes =/= sales,yup I'm aware.But similar to how we can't rely on just social media likes to
@jaysiah633363
I would def love more husbando oriented gacha games! Really hope gacha game developers wake up and realise there's an entire half of the population waiting to throw them money if they just make products that we would actually be interested in. 😅
@salaryman_28
This is a very good summary of S-classes except that I would like to add that while funny little choker guy may not want to do the kissing, many of those ikemen and buff women and Pokemon that he raises would very much like to kiss him
The use of that particular screenshot of Chongyun and Xingqiu next to that text saying that Liuli Pavillion needs to be booked 3 months in advance and that it's perfect for dates and anniversaries was a CHOICE
Thank you Japanese koushiki for this crumb. 😭😭😭
indicate popularity, I don't think we should rely on just in-game banner sales as an indicator of the popularity of male characters. From what I've seen, while waifu enjoyers tend to spend more in-game, husbando enjoyers tend to buy more external merch. Living in Japan I've had
@hazurine
I love the way you drew Alhaitham's face in the last panel, he looks so happy and pleased with himself at having tricked Kaveh into having sex with him. 😂
the privilege of attending lots of otaku events and I can confidently say that female fans are out there spending a LOT of money. All the cafe collabs I've been to have been pretty much 95% female even for shounen series like JJK, HeroAca and SpyxFamily,and I was really surprised
Photos from the Skip Beat Exhibition I went to last month! It was a bit smaller and plainer than I expected (comparing it with my previous experiences with BL manga exhibitions at least) but I guess at this stage I'll just take whatever crumbs the marketing team throws at us. 😅
@hjyjbot
My head canon is that SHJ is having mixed feelings of not wanting to see such a devastated expression on HYJ's face but some part of him is also wishing he was important enough for HYJ to make that face because of him instead of someone else. 😭
@kakaolikeslegs
I am SCREAMING!!! Poor Diluc, though I have to say he's very cute when he blushes. 🤭
Also love the very bushy moustaches on Heizou and Kazuha, the two dorks. 😂
@sunally01
Really? That's very odd considering danmei & xianxia/wuxia are very popular among female fans in China. Maybe it's just the Chinese male fans who don't like long haired male characters? In which case too bad,Hoyo shld realise that it's not always possible to cater to everyone. 😅
the lack of interesting male Genshin characters just doesn't appeal to me whereas I really love how HSR keeps releasing gorgeous male characters who actually get their time to shine in the story.Tho of course I do wish the female to male character ratio in HSR could be more even!
Every time I go to a manga exhibition I'm always reminded about how much more gorgeous the original art is compared to the printed/digital versions the readers see. There's just so much detail and the colours are so vibrant.
that even at a HeroAca manga exhibit I went to, it was basically 80% female attendees. Seiyuu heavy events like TalesFest also tend to skew much more heavily towards female fans. And at these events these fans are buying a LOT of merch, especially since Japan is evil and
puzzles me why after the success of the Sumeru husbandos, they're choosing to make Fontaine AND Natlan predominantly full of female characters. Personally, that's one of the reasons why I've basically dropped Genshin since the early Fontaine patches whereas I main HSR now -
has created the concept of trading/random merch. 😅 Like if you've seen the pictures of female fans' itabags & their bday celebrations for their oshis you'll note that it is not uncommon for them to buy literally dozens of the EXACT SAME can badge.The same way many waifu enjoyers
@thomapics
I was discussing this with a friend the other day because we were talking about the Genshin perfumes, and we were joking that maybe Thoma's might smell like miso soup. 😂
Though we were thinking maybe it'll smell like something very clean... like clean laundry maybe. 🥰
@fanpower98
This but it's even worse because Tighnari is also known for being a really harsh lecturer who strikes terror in his students so any Akademiya student who goes to Collei's place for dinner is probably going to be shitting their pants the entire time. 😂
@yoma_0_0
I am SCREAMING!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I especially love how you drew Alhaitham using his book to block his view of Kaveh's privates. The man is surprisingly pure. 😂😂😂
OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 🥳
But also man that joke tweet predicting that Yuzuru would just casually announce one day that he had been married for ages and already had children kinda came true. This is coming so totally out of left field. LMAO
@f1re_fl0wer_
Yeah I agree. I love many of the Genshin and HSR women personality-wise but sometimes their outfits annoy me - as much as Raiden's and Miko's outfits are pretty, I keep wanting to pull down the hem of their skirts like a naggy mom scolding her daughters to cover up more. 😂
You can tell that Hoyo understands this to a certain extent - you just have to look at their various fashion apparel and jewellery lines for Genshin to see that they know female fans are willing to spend on things like handbags and perfumes for their oshis. Which is why it really
like to spend on getting multiple copies of their waifus and their waifus' weapons in-game, husbando enjoyers like to spend on multiple copies of their husbandos' merch. So yeah the husbando community is definitely a huge market that's still not completely tapped on yet.

Oh god Yoo Joonhyuk please don't make yourself sound like the guy who is instantly disliked by his boyfriend's over-protective mother when they meet for the first time and then has to fight to gain her approval. 😂
joseimuke games to do as well as LaDS, as someone who does like hot well developed female charas in addition to hot well developed male charas, it'll be great if we could one day get a high quality gacha game like the Hoyo games that has an even ratio of male and female charas!
@raonbeam
LOL this is so funny. HYH is really smart to have thought of using this method. 🤣 Also I love Peace's confused googly eyes in the last panel. 😂
Oh and also I should clarify that when I said "gacha game developers", I really should have worded it better since I was talking more about cross-appeal gacha games that market themselves towards both female and male fans rather than joseimuke and danseimuke games.

Oh god I swear this novel is trying to kill me. I nearly busted a gut when I read this 😂
Really loving é wary yet surprisingly trusting comradeship tt KDJ & HSY have. It's so rare to find a male-female dynamic tt's not romantic & where both parties are on equal footing
ORV Chapter 102 spoilers
"[The constellation ‘Bald General of Justice’ is blushing at your comradeship.]"
So that's what we're calling it now huh? "Comradeship"? 😏
ORV chapter 115 spoilers
LMAOOOOOOO Kim Dokja declaring that the one he wants to court is not Persephone but Hades. My dude you really aren't convincing anyone of your no homo-ness. 😂
OH MY GOD SO KIM DOKJA AND YOO JONGHYUK REALLY DO HAVE THE SAME COAT IN OPPOSING COLOURS LMAOOOOOOOOO
Also I'm loving how Lee Jihye and Han Sooyoung are basically convinced that KDJ and YJH have a thing going on. 😂😂😂
ORV chpt 148
It was so funny reading the comments on Wuxia World where readers kept complaining about how the charas kept calling poor Kim Dokja the Ugliest King (I was similarly outraged) & then when tt constellation yelled out "Handsome Kim Dokja!" we felt so validated. XD
@chkdoe
Omg that photo that Zhongli accidentally took of the top of his face is SENDING me. Please grandpa please learn to use your smartphone properly. 🤣🤣🤣

Yeah they literally had a scene where Deadpool and Wolverine are fighting each other in a car but it's cinematically shot in a way that makes it seem like they're having very hot car sex that's literally rocking the car, so... 😂
Because I'd like to have a more even ratio of male and female characters in cross-appeal games. I'm aware of joseimuke games like Twisted Wonderland and Idolish 7 and Love & Deepspace that are really popular and raking in the money, and while I would definitely love more
@Sacred_jawel
Zack's nickname in Crisis Core is "puppy", so this scene is alluding to the fact that the Cloud in this flashback is actually not the real Cloud but is based on Cloud's memories of Zack during the Nibelheim incident.
@3skumakuma
Awwwww Screwllum is such a sweet and thoughtful boyfriend! 🥰
Did Caelus start dating Aventurine for his money so he could be a whale for gacha games? 🤣
And LOL poor Welt. I bet he can never get any sleep. Maybe that's why he looks tired all the time. 😂

Oh my GOD how can a video be so CUTE and so COOL at the same time!? Also I am just amazed at how talented WYB is, seriously. And it was so adorable how the little girl was so happy and excited at seeing him perform her dance. MY HEART I JUST CAN'T 😍😍😍
HELP I HAVE OFFICIALLY SIGNED OFF ON MY DEATH CONTRACT BY FINALLY SUCCUMBING AND FALLING INTO OMNISCIENT READER'S VIEWPOINT HELL WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF WHYYYYYYYYYY
@MrArtezi
Originally there was the theory that each Genshin main version would take turns being male/female-dominated (which I already found weird), but then they broke that pattern by making Natlan female-dominated right after female-dominated Fontaine and I'm just like WHY

He literally has 3 children with some of his harem members. (Created through magical means so no actual mpreg but still.) So yes you could say that there is indeed some breeding involved. 😂
