Stop Cultural Appropriation and Whitewashing in MiHoYo Games

A petition for Hoyoverse to better respect and stop misrepresenting the cultures of the countries represented in their game !

Hoyoverse has repeatedly taken inspiration from indigenous cultures without proper representation and respect.

In particular, the many characters from Sumeru and Natlan in Genshin Impact, and from Penacony, Sigonia or the space travelers in Honkai Star Rail are all clearly white or only lightly tanned at best, with the exception of some enemy NPCs which has sparked concerns of racism among players and indigenous communities.

Cultural appropriation and whitewashing perpetuate harmful stereotypes and diminish the rich cultural heritage of indigenous communities. These practices not only misrepresent cultures but also contribute to ongoing marginalization and disrespect.

There is a serious lack of correct representation of the world's population, too many white-skinned characters even in countries where living conditions mean that they should have a darker skin. For example, characters living in a desert or jungle, but still have very white skin? That doesn't make sense.

When this petition was created, Hoyoverse had an extremely inappropriate reaction, citing that 'They are just games'. However, these are precisely games that take inspirations from real cultures...

More detailed informations on the petition page, including requests made to Hoyoverse to address this issue.

also now that you guys have seen the I'm Not Sorry For Loving You animatic I just wanted to share my very real struggle to not accidentally draw a shot like this

The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn’t a Guy at All: An Offbeat Romance

❌No Spoilers❌

I say no spoilers because this can all be found in the series description and first chapter. If you want to go into this series completely clean, not knowing what it’s about at all, then stop reading and go for it!

Anyways.

For a brief synopsis of the series, picture this: You’re a popular, fashionable girl who fits the stereotypical “preppy” title in some sort of way (or gyaru if you will). But you stand out from the rest. Why? Maybe because you have Aerosmith or Skid Row blasting in your ears as you’re finding an old MTV music video to watch as your friends are talking about the latest drama.

And before you’re all like “Pick me! She’s a pick me!” Don’t even. Aya, the girl I was just describing, is anything but. She’s just a fashionista with music taste that doesn’t align with her style, or the style of anyone around her. And with that in mind, it’s no surprise she’s at least a tad bit lonely.

But this loneliness is short lived once she finds her way into the life of a cute CD store worker, who shares the same music taste as her. Just like that, a crush is born!

Aya can’t help but rant to her friends at school about this new person in her life. Her rants catch the attention of Mitsuki, a girl with a striking resemblance to the guy Aya’s interested in…

My goodness, I binged this series in an entire day. This series perfectly captures the whole “falling for a girl for the first time” feeling in such a fresh way. The characters are extremely well written and fleshed out, especially the main duo.

I find Aya the most relatable to me because she’s just such a hopeless romantic, I love her. And yes! Expect many music references, you’ll be surprised. Not to mention probably the most iconic moment in history (chapter 26).

If you like music and lighthearted romance (that can be real when needed to be), give this one a shot! Btw, on Twitter, the author Sumiko Arai posts many cool doodles of the series!

in small fandoms you need to be grateful to the person who only accidentally hit you twice with a frying pan while trying to make you breakfast. in big fandoms you can block people for wearing a shirt you don’t like

hunger hurts

Obssesed with figuring out how the eggs feel about eachother based on the times we can see them interact by themselves in the background.

• Tallulah and Chayanne the absolute beloveds. They are 100% eachothers favorite, no questions asked. So many gifts and lil inside jokes and playing together. Chayanne will destroy an entire army for her and Tallulah is all flowers and sunshine until someone threatens him and then she is the "hold my flower" meme.

• Bobby and Tilín were like those kids who you see fighting in the park, but 10 minutes later they are acting like they are the best of friends in the world. (And then 10 minutes later they are fighting again.)

• Ramon and Chayanne, the ultimate adrenaline bros. Climbing stuff to do water bucket clutches and going into dungeons and running ahead to kill stuff. Very rough and tumble kind of kids.

• Ramon, Dapper and Chayanne aka Tantrum Trio aka Tallulah Protection Squad aka The Quackity Haters.

• The only way Bobby can interact with the other eggs is by being The Most Annoying. A physical representation of "oh, you little shit".

• JuanaFlippa and Tilin. Best friends gone too soon. Fighting tooth and nail in their respective afterlives to find eachother.

• Most recently, Tallulah and Richarlyson. Tallulah is very much enjoying the "IM NOT THE YOUNGEST ANYMORE :0!" life. Took him under her musical wing and is very happy to have someone who she can teach stuff to.

• Bobby and Richarlyson, annoyance at first sight, will beat eachother up if given the chance.

• And they all side eye Gegg.

Very much missing out on stuff from other POVs but what little I have makes my heart all fuzzy, these kids are so freaking cute.

Im feel like i wanna chew drywall at everything that happened today with Fooligetta and Leonard@

Leonarda and Foolish finally got reunited. They danced and celebrated. Leonard@ showed Foolish her present for Vegetta and Foolish didnt stop praising her the entire time. He was so shocked and proud of his daughter.

And then we have everything that happened with the court case and everyone bringing up that Foolish allegedly cheated. Foolish constantly yelling that he didnt do it with Leonard@ on the jury.

Leonard@. Who watched her dad break a promise right before the trial. Who didnt even wanna look at her dad. Who sat on the fucking jury and watched her dad fight for his life.

Only to accidentally give Maximus the wrong photo and further hurting her dad. She just wanted to prove that her dad does care and isnt a cheater.

Leonard@ saying she is a bad egg because she knows that she fucked up. She ran back to the adoption center and wanted Foolish to just leave her there.

But instead, Foolish sat and poured his heart out to Leo. He told her how much he loves her and cares about her. He showed her that he keeps everything she gives him because thats how important she is to him. Foolish went on and on about how she gave his life a purpose. He never wants to lose her.

And then Leonard@ got jealous and told Foolish that he is her dad and her dad only. She doesnt want to lose him. They both need her each other. She made him pinky promise.

Then we have Vegetta

Vegetta fucking flirted with Devil Rubius.

He actively cheated while Foolish was fighting everyone on the server that he is loyal. Vegetta doesnt even know about the allegations.

Can you imagine what would happen if Leonard@ found out what Vegetta did? After days of everyone calling Foolish a cheater and putting her trust on the line everytime. How she constantly brought up Vegetta and gave Foolish photos of her other dad to be like “Hey remember whos at home”. After everything that happened today.

All imma say is that baby girl has a gun and i fear what will happen if the truth comes out
