Mariari is a really hard Mario & Wario clone. But Marisa x Alice is a really cute pairing. So either way we win.

Man, the ReiMari ship is a completely different dynamic, isn't it? In most doujins, you see this completely different personality from Marisa when it's ReiMari as opposed to MariAli.

It probably has to do with how both Reimu and Marisa have very open, assertive personalities and a friendship-rivalry sort of relationship in the series itself, so doujins tend to explore how that develops from there (which I realize is how I tend to write romance between my own characters, too). When it comes to Marisa and Alice, their personalities are very different, so it usually involves a more idealized version of Marisa who has to break Alice (usually with a more tsundere personality) out of her shell for romance's sake. It can be cute for sure, but I'm one of those people who prefers Alice's canon personality where she's a rather cold, isolated prodigy who appears to mostly respect Marisa as a competent magician rather than appreciate her company. Which, granted, makes her a pretty difficult character to write into a romance plot, so I can see why they soften her up a little in fanworks.

I just wish Alice would get some proper spotlight in official works. :mishi:

Uh... hi! I'm Coconut. (Matthew is my name obviously) I am currently an English major in university that consumes books, video games ( :kood: ), anime, manga, and music. I have recently gotten more into working out and attempting to 1cc some games. (Most recent one is Wild Guns on the SNES)

I'll really play any kind of game unless it's a MMORPG. (I really like Platformers, shoot em' ups, and RPGs!) I have many favorites but it would take me hours to list them all.

I started watching raocow regularly sometime during my high school days though I have vague memories MANY years ago of running across a video of some guy providing weird-ass commentary while playing a SMW hack. (Maybe that was raocow?) I only joined the Talkhaus recently because I was curious about what it looked like. The kindness and creativity present in this community genuinely warms my heart and I'm glad to play a miniscule part in this community. I'm usually down for a friendly chat (though there may be periods when I'm straight up not here for a while)

Nice meeting you all! (Also, happy pride month :pride: )

This looks so strange. :mgmn8:

Oh I thought it was some weird inside joke or something that only ogs in this forum would get. They look so :mgmn: cool and :mgmn8: weird. Kinda :mgmn7: cute in a way. A mod with these sprites needs to be made haha.

Thank you very much. Your chattiness does not bother me at all.

Oh no, that would be something like... The Sounds Good boombox (i personally never got it i just think it looks cute)? "im nightposting"? BlackDS? We do not speak of rAod outside of when I decide to dredge it up to traumatize people, feel free to look at the thread if you want to lose some braincells out of yaoi stan lunacy and constant dismissal of personal boundaries.

There's also old rena IRC injokes but her chat (currently Discord) isn't talkhaus related anymore outside of sharing a few members. It's a friend chat, we just vibe.

hello alice :eye:

I think you can change your acc name by pming a mod or admin. Check with the coppers and they should forward you to someone. Maybe it's only rena that can change it, maybe someone else can. I'm not familiar with the insides of this forum I post daily on.

Hope you've at least been enjoying recent series, Outer Wilds, Toree, Skullmonkeys, etc. If not, that's fine too, we're not all insane superfans that consume everything raocow makes, some of us don't watch him much either. I'm only watching all three out of Skull, Raks and Sonic Chronic because they interest me in some fashion.

Welcome to talkhaus, Alice. Hope you find a series that you like or don't like outta the stuff raocow has played, you might find some pretty amusing moments in one of 'em. Oh and hope you have a nice Summer break as well

Hello! :pal: My name is ANONDRAGON. I originally first discovered raocow when I wanted to watch an LP of VIP 1 cuz I remembered seeing the VIPs at a young age and I wanted to find an LP of them and I discovered his second VIP 1 LP. However, my first actual exposure to raocow related content was watching someone's ASMT LP, but I didn't know about the association at the time until I discovered his channel. I then decided to watch raocow's videos in a chronlogical-ish order, but that really didn't work out well and so I kind of just stopped watching. However, I would occasionally watch him a few times, but I wouldn't really remember much of my experiences later on. Eventually, I somehow rediscovered raocow, last year I believe, and have been watching his videos sometimes (on and off, depends on the game and if it interests me) a bit more consistently recently. As for more about myself, I exist and do stuff sometimes.

Hi, my name is Noelle and I'm bad with introductions. :ehh:
I like niche and artsy things, I enjoy being silly a moderate amount. I feel more comfortable communicating in places like forums, I never got used to social media and I'm sure I won't, in particular I like being in a place where other people have niche interests too, it's so much more enjoyable to interact in places like this. It's not so much about staying in an echo chamber, but just having a place to belong, a proper community so to speak. I don't know what else to say, so... I hope we all can get along. :catplanet:
