Makes sense, no one expected the move to Red Note. So the issue became, do we allow China to steal our citizens data vs actual chinese propaganda being spread
 
As if I didn’t already love Full Metal Panic enough

Nice to know then author of one of my favorite Mecha shows is based
 
Really how so?

Do elaborate how VN elists are somehow more insufferable than western battle shonenshit fanboys?

When those mostly seem to exist online and mainly in powerscaling/debate circles compared to the latter?
It's not the powerscalers that are an issue. It's the guys who'll lose their shit if you enjoy a piece of work through the anime or manga or any medium that isn't 50 hours of "you read, then you click, then you read, then you click." Who huff their own farts on how the cowardly MC-kun breaking his leg kicking a Nazi in the balls is actually a very deep and symbolic critique of society and how only an intelligent person can understand the intricacies of it. And the only reason they act like redditors about it is because they're so used to decade-old (or older) machine translations that any amount of fluent English is considered Shakespeare to them. Most of them aren't even that good, they just think good art + good music + voice acting optional automatically makes something into high class literature. They're like Light Novel fans except Visual Novel fans unironically seem to think they're giving you a life changing experience, and if you didn't like it it's because you watched the inferior anime where the main character says "I might go to the store today" instead of "Should I go to the store today?"

My feelings don't come from nowhere, I've dealt with these people. I only meme on Dies Irae the way that I do because someone I knew unironically spent every day trying to make me read it for months, hyping it up like it was the Second Coming of Christ. How he was going to change the world by putting out visual novels himself, and how shit like Kamen Rider is "not smart enough" when it just wants to be fun. Modern shonentards are stupid but that's because they're tourists that don't actually fuck with anime. Visual Novel fans are the weeaboo equivalent to Rick and Morty fans who quote the "you have to have a very high iq" meme unironically. It's a case where you know exactly how they act, or you haven't interacted with them that much.

That being said Katawa Shoujo and Saya no Uta are both peak and I will not tolerate any slander.
