@Thorn_ For some folks, the appeal is embracing that lack of control, for others it is the tension and emotional upset at that very loss of control. There is definitely a different dynamic if, say, a woman is sentenced to free-use duty and her neighbors and coworkers take advantage of that than if she willingly climbs into a free-use booth to let anonymous people use her for their pleasure.

You can still have forbidden sex (within reason) - what if a son/daughter/an in-law etc. takes advantage of the free-use situation? - but it's largely about the emotional investment of the people involved.

I find it odd that someone thinks sex would be boring if it wasn't "forbidden." But I guess we just think differently.

I am cringe and that's based.
I will never be based and that's not cringe.
Only I can be.. me.

I see a theme starting here...

Cringe based-ness obsession

If you enjoy it and practice long enough, you will improve. And if you decide it's not for you, there are soo many other things to discover and enjoy!

I'm partial to "mousey" myself... at least in terms of appearance

I feel like we should tone down the way we deragotorize rats and other rodents, because rodents really aren't that bad. Unless you're a bad rat owner, but that goes for any pet. This is probably just my rodent bias shining through.

I do get what you mean though.

I know exactly how you feel. I know it better than you even. /s

Do they do that? Pokemon does have enough rng checks that you could fail enough for it to feel like that. Especially a rom hack that might reduce chances or add new moves/mechanics with thier own randomness. Actually rigging chances, however, is pretty scumbag, yeah.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that some streamer (Smallant?) beat one of the base games modded to rig every single chance in the NPC's favor. Maybe the rom hackers are just getting desperate? The only other options are just competive tournament setups and bullshit stat buffs, and even then, Pokemon fans always find a way...

Yeah, no. Double criticals, the ai reading your inputs and switching on it’s turn immediately from its declared move, full five turn sleep, landing an 10% freeze chance on the first hit, among other things.

That's a thought. A thought isn't the same as a plot.

I'm confused. The plot is "OOooOoOOo I discovered how to do X (in this case, be a second character class) and am now busted OooOoOo".
Usually implies a subplot about obliterating the generic mega-evil demon lord and also a harem of various achetypes, as per the genre.
Yet another mid anime content-farm esque isekai.

Congratulations!
But - if I might ask - why?

Just felt I had the old one for so many years, was kind of tired of it, especially the one I made when I was younger. My only problem is I had to take underscores because this was taken otherwise.

I like it. I remember all the way back when you were Auraicide.

Yep, this is what Ascendance of a Bookworm does particularly well. While Villainess handwaves all those issues by having the protagonist simply largely have amnesia of her past life, and having the hero of Shield Hero be a bit too quick to set aside his cognitive dissonance surrounding slavery,

Bookworm has Myne, despite attempting to conceal the fact that she's from a much more modern world than what she was reincarnated into, have the most trouble hiding her societal ideals. Though she's very clever, her idealism leads her to trouble a number of times.

The charm of SI is being inserted into loved franchise and being able to interact with characters (or make harems - but that is other can of worms) and change some events. The cheat skills are to empower the SI ti make changes... but most authors forget, that they already have a cheat skill by being SI - the foreknowledge.

I just started watching Gundam for the first time the other day.

Ah yes. The pain of reinstalling all of my games and stuff, importing all the stuff outside of steam ect.

Any chance you could provide some context? Been wondering ever since you posted this
