When I first started playing the game, the first non-VS character that piqued my interest was Mafuyu.

After I ended up getting told to "go fuck yourself" by what I had considered my first real friend group, I read the Farewell my Mask event story, thinking it was Mafu1, not Mafu4.

Since then, not many things changed.

New friends constantly ditching me after meeting them, underserving people around me getting things they'd never deserve, but most importantly, family.

To my absence until recent times, my dad is into scientology.... Uhhh.... A lot. And my mother is a devout Orthodox.

Last summer I came to the conclusion I was an atheist, and so, when I came out, they were kinda accepting and didn't care about it.

But the more time passed and the more my father tried being "beat buddies" with me, I realized my mother thought that coming out as an atheist (and now privately agender) is a phase, and not development.

I found out too that my dad, although painting himself as atheist too, maybe to try comforting me? Anyways, he's one of those schizophrenic deists that think of the universe as a deity and sum.

Amidst the incredibly shitshow I endure, a character has guided me through all of this. Mafuyu Asahina.

She always kept me motivating and gave me motivation when I had none to live for, and this ended up paying off recently when I got the best score at a history olympiad in my whole region and top10 finish at biology at county level.

I relate to Mafuyu deeply, especially with her feeling about family. But unlike her, istead of having a mother whom manipulates me "for my own good", I got a mother who simply doesn't care about my life. She cares about my future and my success, but denies major parts of my existance, rewriting them in her mind to what she considers ideal.

And here I started adopting the Mafuyu life philosophy of selflessness.

Every time I would go against any member of my family, I would remind myself "Mafuyu wouldn't do this" and immediatly cede my position.

It has done what it could, but in a marriage that is always 2 thoughts away from divorce, my desperate attempts as the "family prodigy" go in vain at trying to stabilize the situation...

And now I'm afraid my father may just divorce and abandon me financially at any moment, and that I shall renounce to my ideal career of being an anatomopathologist to get hired early and produce money, ending up in the same scenario I know the idiots my classmates are will end in....

But still, there are moments where I just can't give up my terrain and still hold gruesome dignity....

Do you guys have any advice on how to supress those feelings....?

Hallo yall la anul am evaluarea nationala. De un timp considerabil (1.5 ani) imi doresc sa am o cariera ca medic patolog.

Ca invatat sunt situat bine, plasat excelent si la olimpiade si la medie geneala, precum si competente academice generale.

Patologia ma fascineaza, dar sunt curios, cum e invatatul? Cum e munca? Sunt colegi? Cum e plata? E nevoie sa plec din tara?

La orice continent mă gândesc, locurile de calificare mi se far corect, însă rămâne un continent care mi se pare că primește dublul locurilor pe care le merită.

Acest continent este Asia. Din 9 echipe, doar 2 au trecut la faza eliminatorie.

E clar că infrastructura Asiei de fotbal e varză înafară de Japonia, Australia și ce mai zici de Coreea de Sud.

În rest, tot vezi echipa ca Qatar, care plătesc arbitrii de rup, fac sportswashing în masă și fac un singur punct pe turneu. De adăugat faptul că, atunci când pierdea 3-0 cu Canada unui jucător i-a sărit în cap "bă coaie, ce-ar fi să sparg picioarele lui Kone?" Și a și făcut-o arată nivelul la care se joacă.

Cui aș da aceste locuri? Africii și Europei.

E clar că în America de Sud sunt destule locuri, că de se mai adaugă se ajunge să se invite automat toate țările la mondial. America de Nord este doar SUA, Canada și Mexic și cam nimic altceva decât unele țări care uneori fac decent.

În schimb, tot sunt absențe mari în Africa și Europa.

Nu sunt mare fan Italia, și e clar că au deja avut o șansă să se califice cu meciul cu Bosnia, dar să joace Qatar și să nu joace Italia și Nigeria?

Și pentru cei care zic "dar atunci nu se mai fac povești frumoase ca Curacao la cupa mondială" chiar foarte bine, dacă asta înseamnă că văd un fotbal jucat exponențial mai bun și profesional.

Ce ziceți voi?

For context, I'm 14 y.o. and recently got diagnosed with Axial Myopia. Aka I can't see shit from far away.

Because of that, I had to get glasses. Ever since I got glasses, I got into a massive identity crysis.

Basically, I have this weird identity complex where everyone says I'm a nerd and I kept telling them proudly "Of course I'm not, I don't wear glasses and dress casually."

But now I don't have it anymore. I got glasses. And to go along with it, I got straight-up violated by my barber and he gave me the literal nerd cut.

Doesn't need getting mentioned I started getting harassed. Harassed a lot, ACTUALLY. I kept getting harassed from all kinds of horrible people and classmates, and now my psychologist tells me I'm a psychopath.

I'd love seeing a character that confronts even a little problems from wearing glasses in PJSK. I don't need it to be the defining part of them, but I need it to be there.

There was Kohane wearing glasses, but from what I mostly know, her wearing glasses was into the story at the start and she left them for lentils I think? That's what I was told.

It's kinda weird, cuz out of all character stuff, I never even saw her wear glasses, not on her profile, not on character thing, on modt cards no.

It's a missed opportunity cuz out of 20 real people I think atleast one would wear glasses consistently.

I would love seeing a character I relate to wear glasses constantly and seeing how it affects their social life and self esteem. How emotionally demanding it is and how many stereotypes get pushed on people wearing glasses.

I'd love throwing my glasses out of the window, but I need them. I am forced to wear them. No pjsk character represents this so far, and it makes me really sad.

Some characters have some cards with glasses, like Mafuyu, but again, they are there for atmosphere and feel completely optional, not even close to the feeling of dread, anxiety and depression I get from wearing glasses.

Please.... Comment your opinion.... I desperately wanna interact with someone on this...

I mean like the game lived 5 years so I'm really not convinced it's closing up! Like I play battle cats and hoi4 and lemme say they are much older and hold up great. But then I look up and see something about gacha games lifespans, how a tiktok session was talking about mizuki kinda starting to leave n25 and stuff and I'm scared cuz I haven't read the story yet so I don't want it to end already it's barely 6 years and stuff. I want more content or atleast the game not to shut down.

​

What do yall think?

I genuinely couldn't even realize how much people disliked it till now.

Found Mafuyu's cover on JP when Propose dropped, I LOVED the song.

Next day I even found it on the EN server, without Mafuyu's cover, but I found it! And oh gods when I say I played it for an hour because of how much I loved it and how good it sounded to me.

But today I go on reddit and find commission ratings to see everyone hates it?? What's up with that?? I genuinely think the song is (almost) perfect.

Also to add I'm not the biggest fan of reading lyrics, since I listen to vocaloid and n25 specifically cuz I can't cringe in the middle of listening to the song because I know what it says without knowing it's genuinely peak.

But most criticisms I've seen don't even mention the lyrics as too bad, so I'm just left perplexed on why people hate it so much.

All opinions are welcome.

I seriously love yall. Yall are a goated fandom for a goated game, and always gave me a good day. The memes this fandom makes are really fun and relatable to the game.

The game is goated and the characters even more so. I love all characters, and all fandoms.

It's just that, this is a teenager fandom. Usually, fandoms whom have mostly teenagers are absolutely deplorable. Full of ships, full of character sexualization, full of headcanonslop and much more.

Of course, there are ships in the fandom, but *most* fans respect eachother. Most fans do not fight because of ships, and most fans like doing their own hc's and not forcing people into them. I love how little hate this fandom has, and how there isn't a character some hate and some love, or if there is, it isn't the main talking point.

Headcanonslop is in pretty much every fandom. And it is present in this one too. But I don't have any idea why, the fans just always find a way to keep it.... Personal. To keep it to themselves. I can browse the fandom chill and all because I know this isn't the main talking point, and what it is is really tolerable/easy to ignore.

Once more, I want to say I love this fandom, and that I couldn't be more proud of the fact I am part of this gorgeous fandom.

Thank youuu
