I feel like youre being very backhanded with one of your ask pertaining to the skintone issue. Lads literally advertised itself as being global inclusive and thus has to fulfill those promises. In zaynes myth kindle it literally looks like my mc has vitiligo because they refused to adjust the textures for darker skin. Wanting equal treatment isnt being demandy. We arent asking for every asian otome to give skincolor options or have the love interest be blackified or some bizzare thing about that so why are you acting obtuse and saying representation(for a game that prides itself on being inclusive to a global audience) has gone too far?

Hi! I saw you mention that Beyond the World is known as the music otome, and I was wondering if you could tell me more about the game? Like, what's it about, what kind of guys the LIs are... Have a nice day!

First of all, I would like to finally thank you directly for all the hard work and effort you have put into translating the L&N. I am not good with words, but there is so much gratitude in my heart its overspilling sometimes. Even though I have tried many times to access the game, the verification just completely defeated me. And I did go as far as to intensively study mandarin chinese specifically for this reason (down bad? maybe. kinda ridiculous and a shameful reason to start, embarassing to think about, but its okay to laugh now. To be fair, very quickly it turned into a deep and profound fascination, and I found myself completely captivated by the beauty of the language and the culture). Please bear with me for just a minute longer now, and let me get to the point, though I really do not want to come off as demanding of your time and attention. Now, regarding the actual question, I have seen you tweet on X some time ago a chinese creator posting "Beyond the world" content, and I wanted to ask their name, so that i could have a taste of the game's lore even if I fail to understand the verification process, or simply do not pass, as a non-chinese resident, and furthermore, not even an english native speaker. I am not very familiar with chinese platforms, so I don't really know where to look, and there isn't anything that I found about the game's content in English. Thank you so much for reading, please have a wonderful day.

Just want to say if any negativity from any questions concerning about THAT fandom and their stupidity is wearing you down, it's okay to take a break! You don't need to answer them as soon as you see them! Your health is more important.

Sooo I was looking for more information about BtW and I came across this notion page that had a few essentials about the game and ithad a link to a curiouscat page where you explain "HLR's quicktransmigation" and "BtW's Infinity flow" but for some reason it doesnt open,if isnt a botherto you coulditbe possible to have these uploaded in otherplaces? Im just asking because I have no ideia how that works, if its a bug my stupitice or it has been taken downs! Anyway,take care and ignore this if it bothers you :) byebye

 could you give tips about where can I read more about other Otome games/CC in eng similar to what you do or even in a blog style? Thank you. 

I personally believe Love and deep space did a lot of damage to fandom and Otome game spaces as a whole. You got people thinking self inserting is a must and look at you weird if you're not doing so. Let's forget the not self inserting is very common in otoge spaces 😭 

I think so many normies, kpop fans, and the likes of them are just ruining these spaces y'know? Everybody here is like "ME ME ME" like they should be the center of a attention 😒 

your first impression thoughts of the event? or at least the au background lol. Do you feel like it suffered from post-anni rush/was it generally received well? Looking at all the cards yet to come makes me hesitant to pull since I don't think I'm that interested in the premise. Would appreciate your thoughts, although ik you're focused on the new 5man rn <3 

Man... I'm sad. I mean, I kinda expected it from looking at bilibili posts (I only go on bilibili, I can only imagine how bad it can get on other sites) and every single one that has Charlie on it has comments about WL/changing CVs. But I was still hoping things would get better bc I'm so attached to WL's Charlie :( Actually, you got me interested in LN, so I went to watch some of their PVs (which turned into all) and it got me hook line and sinker haha and the one that actually got me to download the game were Charlie's lines in the stranger party PV! God knows how many times I looped that line. Then, of course, I went into the Charlie memes (重金悬赏未婚妻 is a classic) and then the main story/轨迹 cards made me love Charlie for real. Especially the cards detailing Charlie's childhood, I remember how amazing his acting was, the lines are basically imprinted in my head. That being said, it did get to a point where I noticed a drop in the quality of the voice acting, and with all the harassment, it probably is better for him to retire from the role :( I'm also lowkey scared whoever they hire next won't live up to expectations, but well not all hope is lost, seeing how it seems to have worked out for LZY? I'm sure there's many talented VAs out there, and it would be interesting to see how someone else interprets Charlie! All the best to WL though, I hope he can finally catch a break. His work will always be in my head rent free <3

look at this! everyone want LN lmao but i don’t think it is. if it is a cn otome then maybe beyond the world? since its only been out for 2 years. if LN were to be localised i would hope that they wouldnt have eng dub and just use subtitles like lbc

https://x.com/ikemenfangirl/status/1985229130326299054?s=46&t=TRjx8SEZiSMVmT8SK-1AUQ

as the qs title goes haha. i'm just curious about what other games players of LN enjoy. i'll share mine!  one of my favourite game series is pillars of eternity & bayonetta :]

I'm seeing a few LaDs players saying that against Themis to defend their game but they didn't know that LaDs just demonstrated the even worse way of forced equality because what suffers for TOT is forced equal from themes and pacing only but LaDs is forced to be equal from more than just themes and pacing. 

QC kiss LaDs MC's back hand while the rest of the men kisses her lips? UNFAIR! Someone else has a bit longer short than the rest of the LI having shorter short? UNFAIR! One guy has more open chest shirt than other LI? UNFAIR! Only one man has a kiss scene with LaDs MC in one specific event than the rest of the LIs? UNFAIR! One LI has 1 more accessory than the rest? UNFAIR!

I don't even encounter this much complaint from Themis fans over "unfair" treatment of Themis men. I see more complaints from Vyn's 3rd Anniversary over forced equality because it ends up conflicting one of his core romantic dynamic that the game has to make him adjust for the theme.

But LaDs? If one LI is slightly different, idol mentality players are gonna scream favoritism 

i know that’s a sweeping generalisation so i’m not being entirely serious but- GODDAMN

i identify with evan’s struggles in ways that cannot be healthy and purely as a fictional character he may be my favourite of all-time, but osborn is my favourite male lead because he feels like the light to me 😖 these two parallel each other so heavily where it’s like they represent an opposite perspective on the same themes so i find them both so comforting in different ways ☹️  i wonder if this is a common experience for fellow 萧小五 LOL

What's your experience in the CN side of the otome fandom?

Of course understanding that they’re still love interests at the end of the day. I was gonna say most angsty but I mean the specific type where we’re on opposing sides vs like terminal illness angst you know? Partially self indulgent ask since I love when they stress me out 😻

Just a lads artist complaining about how they gotta fix their artstyle cause people mistake their zayne as sandman, & everyone on replies was like "ohhh no they're def projecting your zayne looks perfect" "they just wanna hype their man when they look nothing alike" like okay you all do know how annoying it gets when a group of people keep mistaking your favorite character as someone else repeatedly but when it comes to applying this logic on other fandoms suddenly its "not that serious" like I get it, it's not end of world but its still annoying.

not a question and i hope you don't take this as an insult LMAO but reading your translations has unironically inspired me to learn chinese so that i'm no longer as reliant on them :D i'm mostly done with the hsk1 and i think i'm making good progress on it since i can pick up bits and pieces from otome games and i feel more comfortable immersing in "real" chinese spaces (not to imply cn otome is fake but like candid interactions like weibo). anywho keep doing what you do, have kind days ahead! <3

Is it more of like a “adding more gameplay when idle/spend more time with your man/extra lore” like the Home designing? Asking as somebody who unfortunately does not enjoy these types of minigames 😔

So there’s more rumors going around now how Mihoyo, Kuro, Zulong, IGG are trying to develop 3d otome games. How credible are these rumors?

I found out about these Youtubers and they more on "research" them based on their own biased view than about what's still happening at the present or what is in the source itself. Like for example

https://youtu.be/2QBpO5MvfJI?si=Yl5ywIu2-MlEuJhs

Immediately at the first few sentences was "A genre has long been considered niche but something has changed". No it does not, it didn't change anything including popularity. If Silksong became popular for a 2D platformer, why can't the rest of the 2D platformer be popular then?

Then this one is more biased cuz it wasn't much about the source they have right in front of them, it's more on their own game

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12vW5QCVC0E&t=1000s

This was even worse before she edit her comment that she says smth like "Just because it is copied from MLQC doesn't mean it is bad". It is still bad and I wish they would stop pretending and making excuses and just enjoy their realism 3D game. 

It just gets even worse when someone point out that one of Zayne's card is very similar to Victor's anniversary illustration, they always keep saying the same thing "I don't think it counts as a copy if they are from the same company". Being in the same company doesn't absolve the copying & laziness and the game being in the same company does not mean they have the exact same writers

As if the other Youtuber spreading misinformation about 10C making 3D otome based on a random edited LN PV isn't bad enough. It gets worse when its the two of them spreading bs about otome in general

hello illi! so i want to poiso- i mean give them an explanation and luring my friend to play l&n. but my space memory brain is so tiny :") and you already make thread about it so may I ask for your link about light and night lore and world building? i can't find in your twitter bcs drowned in another thread :")

Hello!! I hope you’re having a great day, I just want to ask you (I hope this doesn’t come off as rude or offensive or anything). Have you stop translating bits of L&N altogether or it’s just paused atm?

hello illi! i saw your your Twitter thread about ml character song! but when i open it there is none of their songs there, do you have another recomend web or  link to listen to their songs again?

I started playing recently, trying out the different servers, and I’m a bit confused on how reruns work in LN lol. I dont think I’ve seen solo event cards get reruns, birthdays (??) are a mystery because I’m not sure if I started too late or if there was never a rerun for Charlie’s (or QSL’s) 1st birthday on TW server. I have seen some 4SSRs get reruns (1? 2 year maybe?), and I think I’ve heard anniversary cards get reruns. Oh, wheels gets reruns too (also takes a long time?). Would really appreciate some clarification lol, tysm!! 💛🫶

Talks about otome games, drama cds, and occasionally provides advice? Running away endlessly from my backlog of hobbies.
