Actually a real Homestuck anime episode [http://mspaforums.com/showthread.php?47701-Homestuck-Anime-!] has been in production since about May.
Don't bother!Quiet Stranger said:CJ1145 said:No idea what you saw. It's a webcomic, and you advance the pages by clicking the commands, usually either looking like ==> or >*insert command here*Quiet Stranger said:Is this Homestuck thing an actual web comic or some shitty flash game? Went to the website and all I saw was a shitty flash game.
Could you direct me to the webcomic? All I'm seeing is a flash game about some character (that you name) who likes old sci-fi movies and paranormal lore
I'm not sure what the words John Egbert, Aradia Medigo, Vriska Serket, Bec Noir, Lord English, Doc Scratch, GCat, Her Imperious Condescension, Dave Strider, Rose Lalonde, Jade Harley, and RRRRRRRRRUUUFIOOOOOOO mean to you, but...(whitty name here) said:Also, like 90% of our characters are borderline gods so they can kick your characters' ass.
It's not welcomed and praised by me, that's for damn sure! I think it has to do with the sites one frequents besides the Escapist. Tumblr, for instance, isn't as inundated by ponies (I'm sure someone will jump on me for that, but whatever). It IS inundated by Homestuck. Youtube is becoming filled to bursting with those damn ponies and more people frequent it (your "internet everyman") and so besides the Pony fandom itself (I refuse to use their invented word) they're pretty much universally reviled.Capitano Segnaposto said:I don't get it.
This is welcomed and praised by everyone, yet if one person makes a Pony thread its all "HELLFIRE AND BRIMSTONE MOTHER FUCKERS!" and "Fucking losers".
I am so confused by what the Escapist deems "right" and "wrong".
Not much considering that Yukari Yakumo, Utsuho Reiuji, Reimu Hakurei, Flandre and Remilia Scarlet, Shikieiki Yaxamanadu, Suika Ibuki, Yuyuko Saigyouji, and many, many others exist.CJ1145 said:I'm not sure what the words John Egbert, Aradia Medigo, Vriska Serket, Bec Noir, Lord English, Doc Scratch, GCat, Her Imperious Condescension, Dave Strider, Rose Lalonde, Jade Harley, and RRRRRRRRRUUUFIOOOOOOO mean to you, but...(whitty name here) said:Also, like 90% of our characters are borderline gods so they can kick your characters' ass.
Someone summarized Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom into a 15 minute, fully voiced over anime episode.mew4ever23 said:Who's to say this is fake? Perhaps the fans have actually gotten together to work on making an anime of Touhou themselves?
That's a dedicated fandom, right there.
(whitty name here) said:Somehow I get the feeling you haven't read homestuck. Until you do, I would recommend you refrain from trying to say one set of characters is stronger. (note that i do not say that homestuck's characters are stronger as I am not familiar with Touhou.)CJ1145 said:(whitty name here) said:Also, like 90% of our characters are borderline gods so they can kick your characters' ass.

I mean, just Yukari Yakumo would be enough to completely break anyone. Being able to change the 'barriers' of anything in existence at will and to an unlimited extent is too completely broken for anyone to compare to.
Your character is physically stronger? Changes the barriers between strength and weakness, now your character is weak as a newborn. Hell, in the game she debuted in, she changed the borders of life and death and the spirits began to wreak havoc on the world. All because her ghost friend asked her to. She doesn't even have to channel it. She immediately went back to sleep after it was changed. She can do this for anything anyone anywhere at any time. The only reason things aren't to her exact specifications is because she's doesn't give half a damn as well as sleeps most of the time.
It has nothing to do with what character they're up against, Touhou characters are just too broken to compete with anything other than other Touhou characters, save for the low level Youkai of the games. Any character with a decent significance in their universe is completely bullshit in come way.
Ha, it's my go-to link for explaining Touhou to people.T_ConX said:>Linking to something I put on Cracked three years ago...
Oh wow, I had forgotten about that.

There is dedication, then there is being in denial. The Homestuck fans are in denial.
At least the Touhou fans actually make the anime happen, spending hard earned money on professional voice actors and everything.
