History

15th July 2006

1:16am: Oh noesis! Our Gacchan got caught brandishing the magnum!

It all started on July 13, when a Chinese tabloid and a Japanese tabloid broke the news that Gackt is apparently selling his body to Japanese fans for a price and being an internet predator with fangirls who e-mail him, and a fan brought it to LJ Dears. The fangirls are faced with the thought that their vampire yaoi god is. . . an abusive womanizer.

What did you THINK would happen?

OMG! GAKUTO-SAMA WOULD NEVER EVER DO THAT!!!!111

No true Gackt fan can believe these rumors. (Is that the same as "no true Scotsman?")

He denied it so he must be telling the truth!!!111 And he's calling in the lawyers so that must mean he didn't do it!!!11

And the Chinese hate starts. No offense, of course. . .

Someone invokes the George Bush Media Defense.

My Gackt-sama is a gentleman!

Beating the lawsuit drums. . .

Blame the victim, not the vampire.

MORE Chinese hate. GRRR.

Yet more Chinese hate (never mind a Japanese tabloid was the first to release)

Make them appologize. [sic]

OMG I'M LEAVING THE FANDOM!!!111

It doesn't end. )

8:44am: "Waaah! Someone's reviewing my fic on their journal and it's not NICE!"
Over on LJ, [info]oulangi's been posting her reviews on SS/HP stories.

Ptyx doesn't like it.

"Frankly? I wish I could prevent [info]oulangi from commenting my fics. Not because she's mocking some of the fics she reads (which is a behaviour I don't approve of), but because I wouldn't like people to read my stories through the filter of her reviews. She's intelligent and witty, but she's just a reader. She has her preferences. Your reaction to my story might be very different from hers, but if you start reading it after reading her comment, I'm afraid this will affect your experience. I can't prevent that, I know. But I don't like the whole idea." .

Or does she?

Personally I don't think it's refreshing, because I don't want to be spoiled or be influenced before reading a story. But I confess if she mocked one of those stories that everyone recced and that I hated, I would be very happy. But this is just my bad side, the side that I don't want to show to fandom, because that's not what I think fandom is about."

It's a little late for that, snickerdoodle. You just did.

People, of course, agree. There's even a pseudo-sly 'threat' from kaiz

By the same token, people who post public reviews of fic also have to be prepared for any response...

Heh. Inverydeed! ::veg::>



[info]white_serpent, [info]darkrose and [info]kyuuketsurui give pointing out [info]oulangi's doing this on her own LJ the old college try, to no avail.

ETA: There's responses!

Cut because it's long, and I can't screencap in case of baleetion )

ETA 2: If someone would be kind enough to do screencapping, including these links, 'twould be greatly appreciated!

ETA 3: FILTEEREED! But she self-snitched a kinder, gentler tempter-tantrum. Thanks, ptyx!

Original post screencap. Small and hard to read, but there.

9:05am: Misogyny: What it means, how to spell it, and other comic wank.
Over at Scans Daily, [info]adora_spintriae posts scans from DC's "Brave New World" - a comic about the loss of magic from 99.9% of the DCU (Apparently, really powerful magic-powered characters like Captain Marvel and Black Adam are just fine).

The scans she posts depict Mary Marvel's powers going "poof" in mid air, and her subsequent plummet, which Adora takes offense to, as Captain Marvel only gets a bit of grey hair, and Captain Marvel Jr.'s powers get yoinked in the middle of a fight, which gets him tossed through a ground-level window.

[info]kamino_neko points out that Judd Winnick states in an interview that both Mary and Junior will be a part of his upcoming "Trials of Shazam" mini-series, so Mary's probably not dead.

Adora states that this doesn't mean Mary doesn't go splat and get ressurected. She also sees this as evidence of DC's ongoing policiy of "Refrigeration", in that Mary's predicament is far more dire than her male counterparts.

Kamino thinks she's diluting the term "refrigeration" by using it for a character who is not currently being brutally killed.

And the green flag is waved on the wank!

Others chime in to wonder why Mary's predicament is so much worse than Junior's, seeing as his unpowered form is a cripple

And there's spelling wank

And a not-very funny, semi-facetious invocation of Godwin's Law.

And somewhere in the midst, a lone post by yours truly.

There's something for everybody, here. Jump in and bring Kleenex!

ETA: It's "M-I-S-O-G-Y-N-Y", dammit! (Thanks, [info]m_butterfly!)
3:54pm: Dragon Ball Z was yesterday - the new trend is Powerpuff Girls Z!
As you may have already known, recently the Powerpuff Girls anime remake has been released. It'd like to say it's basically the same thing - three young girls with more powers than logically possible outside of animeland fighting trying to save the world. But! Not so with everyone else. Cries of blasphemy and 'they're destroying my childhood' echo around the various anime-boards. Suffice to say, people become curious and logic dictates that episodes of said anime are fansubbed and posted on YouTube.

Suffice to say - Demashitaaaaaa~!

The wanks mainly center around these two comment sections.

Some people like it, some find it cute, some prefer the original version. Others don't - and rather vocally.

Highlights!

[No direct linking because YouTube only lets you link to all of the comments.]

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MEH BEAUTIFUL POWERPUFF GIRLS??? T_T IT'S SO BAD I CAN'T STAND IT!!

Oh....My Fucking God...

DO NOT WANT!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THIS IS GAY~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAH



The fun starts in the second thread. And somehow Kingdom Hearts got involved. )
