I've tried hard to erase this from my memory. Thanks anon for reminding me of this.

Actual cheating today since I practically copied a screenshot.

I can't tell if I'm getting better or worse.

>It only took me one day after catching up to fall behind again

>>53645

He's lost.

And of course I don't notice that "at the beach" already has its own day until after I'm finished.

I play as her in a lot of games, and its usually fun, it's kinda like were spending time together. If i'm not playing as her, im playing a game where i can customize a sidekick as her, even better.

There's also the official games, which are fun, Sui can be pretty OP and it reminds me how strong her powers really are. Fighting her seems odd, but it doesn't particularly bother me

Also I've got an interesting feeling that doesn't really fit a thread or isn't worth a whole new one so i'll post it here.

Typesetting her is really fun but also a bit strange and REALLY stressful sometimes.

It gives me a huge sense of joy to put her words to the pages so people can read and enjoy RM, but there's also pressure to make sure its done just right, because I want to make her proud. There's also bad times, and sad moments, which are really stressful, i can't even just take it in, I have to push through and finish the work and not let my emotions ruin the job, and sometimes that gets tough

spoilers:

having to typeset the chapter she gets tortured in was probably the most painful experience I have ever had with her. I forced myself to finish as fast as possible, and then spent the next two days crying over it, i think i asked one of the others to double check my work, because i couldn't stand to look at it again, I was physically upset over itthough because im on the team, i'm one of the first english speaking people who gets to see her come back, and I also got to have one of the others give me a basic synopsis of the rest of the story, because I could not stand her being left in that state, I HAD to know how it turned out, and it was a great relief to find out

>What were your first impressions of your waifu?

"Holy crap, it's like Liberace had a working contract with Sanrio". He was like technicolor snow, mesmerizing, I was unable to look away. He was so different from anyone I had seen on any series.

>How did you fall for her or knew that you have fallen for her?

When my mind could not keep away from him. Call it a crush, call it obsession, but he would not allow me to get away, if that makes sense.

I liked the manga but watching her in the anime dub please don't kill me I had access to a hastings book store not internet for subs on adult swim was where I fell and fell hard.

I couldn't get her out of my mind.

I had seen cute and pretty girls in anime before and even watch hentai but this was different this was something much much more.

It was obsession I needed her in my life the more time i spent with her the more Ioved her.

She was strong she was confident she never doubted herself. People respected and feared her . I was knocked off my feet by how sexy she was. When she would wear that white dress I swear to you she knew what she was doing to me and she loved it

To be honest, I didn't think much of Rena from just the anime. It wasn't until I read the SN and got to really get into her head with the Atonement arc that I came to feel for and admire her. Seeing her hidden feelings and thoughts when she's alone at the junkyard really made me appreciate and like her playful, kind side more than I did before. Of course, I absolutely love all of her at this point, but I didn't come to feel very strongly for her until about a year after finishing reading it for the first time. Once I became interested in the concept of "waifu", I knew it had to be her.

The reason why I love this picture the most is because it's the exact moment I fell in love with her.

She's got a lot of good pictures, but this one will always hold sentimental value.

This is one of my favorite pictures of her, and maybe even my one favorite. I printed it and put it on my bedroom’s wall, and kiss it about every day. That was also the first pic I used to post on /mai/, back on the old backup forum.

Hard for me to explain why I love this pic so much. After all, it’s quite a simple one, as her pose is simple and there is no background. I could even complain that she has not even the right number of crystals on her wings; she seems to have 24, while she has 16 in reality.

I think its simplicity might have contributed to my appreciation of this pic. It’s mostly just her, in front of what appears to be some sort of mystical white light. I like the pastel colors, she looks pure, like some sort of angel or mystical spirit in the light. Her face is absolutely delectable; her eyes, her delicate little mouth, the red on her cheeks…

When I look at this pic, I like to imagine that the reason why she is looking back at me is because I am the one connected to the other end of the ‘’red string of fate’’ on her finger. I’m so glad I found this pic.

Oh god, so many to choose from…

I'd have to say this one is still my favorite. I feel like it encompasses so many parts of her personality and I can almost see and hear her playfully bullying me just before she comes in for a kiss when I look at it.

I love pictures of Patchouli in her library. I like the idea that it's like this monumental, near infinite expanse that exists in it's own dimension. It has it's own biomes and endless expanses of unexplored regions. Patchouli will sometimes go on adventures into the library to find new books and unseen knowledge.

I would love to explore the library with Patchouli. Hell, I would love to live in the library with her. It's always been my dream to live in a giant library, even when I was a kid. I actually want to create something like that to live in once I have the money haha. It would be so nice and relaxing, surrounded by all of that knowledge and emotion.

Because clock irises are unnervingly pretty.

I don't think this is in any particular style per se. It seems to want to be combining the sort of thing you'd seen in Christian illuminated manuscripts with the sort of thing you'd see in stained glass.

Either way it has too many fine details to really be accurate to either; most illuminated manuscripts were somewhat ugly and didn't have much in the way of detail.

I'm not too knowledgeable about stuff from around that time though. What I found really interesting was what the Greeks and Pre-Christian Romans did.

dem trips

also found these on twitter

I've thought alot about this and I think she would make wiping out ISIS the highest priority. She wouldn't let us rest until we took the fight to them. She would want to lead the operation personally.

>first ladies tend to pick up issues

Where I am from they are making new ones.

I can not really see Nonon fight against injustice in society or bring about any social programs that are there to help the disadvantaged get social leverage, she does just not seem to care about other people that much.

I guess she would rather take some interest in furthering the traditional arts in a nation´s society, mostly of course classical music.

I could see her setting up government programs to help young talented people get on track if they wish to pursue musical careers or invest money in local marching bands or something like that.

Furthermore she is pretty sociable and self-assured, so even conducting an orchestra herself in the position of the first lady would not be unthinkable.

I think she could really make a fine first lady if not so much a head of state .

>tfw Morrigan is already leading basically the Makai parallel of the USA at its peak

I can take the reigns with her already

I could see her being interested in promoting some kind of scientific pursuit. She usually hates politics, but I think she could get behind some kind of scientific endeavor, since she is a scientist herself.

Marisa lived in a isolated and magical world where legal rules are not binding and the only way to establish dominance or control over an issue is by winning on a forceful confrontation.There's also no restrictions whatsoever regarding businesses, and minimal over laws of confrontation (the "danmaku system".)

Thus, maybe there's no way Marisa will anything be but an anarcho-capitalist. I never liked that line of thinking too much.

If such were to happen, it's either she wouldn't want to bother with political issues at all, seeing them as a overly complicated chore, or something she would be very active at, but she'll be solely anarchistic in her beliefs, wanting to turn the country into another Gensokyo.

>What would your waifu be like as an idol?

pic related was the closest idol look i could find in my folders.

>what kinda songs would she sing?

idk. i guess sad and dark kind of songs i suppose.

>Post a song you'd like for her to sing

https://youtu.be/3n1ihPHG4p8

felt appropriate to me.

She's not a very idol type of girl. Too shy and not one for the spotlight.

Maybe she could be one of those frugal or cooking types of idols but I doubt she'd sing. She could be like the Bob Ross of cooking idols! Maybe focus a decent amount on fun little crafts. That sort of thing.

>What would your waifu be like as an idol?

She probably wouldn't dress too differently then she normally does and she'd probably sing pop rockish songs or maybe something a bit harder.

>Post a song you'd like for her to sing

https://youtu.be/uL-D9CVj-Pc

I just like this song not much more reason behind it.

I think she would of been a mix of Ayria and the stuff I heard on the drive sound track with some j-pop mixed in.

>>53693

But shy idols are the cutest.

I doubt she's a skilled singer, but I imagine her having a delicate, soothing voice. She would probably sing a slow, Japanese style ballad.

I am mostly on the material side I guess, as I can't really interact with her in any way that wouldn't involve some other object or medium.

Sometimes I can feel closer to her naturally, but that's rare and it's usually when there's something happening related to us.

>>53692

>I find the static approach a bit puzzling but to each their own I guess.

It's not like I made a choice…

>>53672

Exactly. I usually imagine she's here with me, but I'm also going to buy a daki soon.

>>53672

> I treat Patchouli like she's there (because in a way, she is), but I also have physical stuff that helps me feel closer to her (daki, figs, etc).

pretty much this

I would say that whether you choose to subscribe to the idea of her being real or not isn't what makes someone illegitimate

>>53672

>>53672

Yeah this is basically me. Whenever I'm out and about I usually "take" Kirino with me in a "imaginary friend?" sort of way. I also treat her like she's here by me at home as well. But I do have figures and dakis that help me feel closer to her as well.

>Do you think that these two approaches cancel each other out or is there some way in the middle?

I think you can do a mixture of both, sure. I do think most of us are usually inclined one way or the other though.

For example, although I don't really consider myself that way for various reasons, I recognize that my relationship looks and functions more like the second variation. However, I do save images, buy merch, and create OC to varying degrees. I don't really view him as static when I'm doing this, though - I see pictures as already taken pictures of him (or alternate universe pictures of him). The merch is honestly not really related much to my relationship and has more to do with my collecting habits. I have not bought a daki, for instance, because I think he'd be really uncomfortable if I did. They're just trinkets; I'd be fine without them, but I like them because they have him on it.

OC is typically something I do with him to make sure that I'm respecting him and portraying him as he should be, kind of like how a ghostwriter would help someone famous write a memoir or something.

>spoiler

Yes, I do. I think that each waifuist should listen to their waifu and/or trust in their own instincts regarding their relationship. That's the only "right" way to do this. It's pointless to not do what makes you and your partner happy in this situation because there is nobody in the physical realm to truly stop you.

Congrats.

Happy Birthday!

Holy shit I'm late.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARUKO!

I hope you guys had a great one.

oh shit yeah happy birthday haruko!

Well I think she likes particularly manjuu. And grilled eels from the Mystia stand. As for the least favourite, maybe some plates of the western cousine, since they are so different from what she usually eats. This also answers to the next question; yes our tastes are probably very different. Well we can still taste each other's food and see what likes to both of us.

I also believe she's pretty good at cooking, and it will be delicious to eat one of her meals. But that doesn't mean that I wouldn't cook for her too!

As for the surprise meal, I think a balanced mixture of both food tradtions will be great

I remember that scene in the source material when Nausicaä and Asbel eats some of those things. She loves them apparently because of how nutritious they are.

Get paste that I guess she loves nutritional food in general, things that would directly come from the nature environment, such as fruits and legumes.

I now have an excuse to post one of my favorite Motoko pics.

She doesn't need to eat or drink but she does it to feel normal. I like knowing no matter how bad my cooking is she would still smile and say it's great.

Not including scanlations, my YnM folder is 998 files; 67 are cosplay, about 27 for drama CDs, 250~ are assorted manga title pages and Russian scans.

In there are 84 official illustrations featuring Tsuzuki (with numerous duplicates because bad scans), and 321 fanarts, 53 of which are quarantined for being especially uncomfortable to look at. Seven of the fanart are of female Tsuzuki, three being copied from the manga, and two being solo pictures.

My other folder where crops and edits go is a mess so it's difficult to count anything, but there's currently 29 drawings I've done myself. I tend to periodically nuke it.

and now I'm about 3700 pictures saved. I made a nice progress.

585 pics so far. What slowes me down is that I am very demanding with the quality. Also is a bit hard to find good pictures of her alone. If I count also the ones with the SDM cast they are 937, through.

And yes I have some lewds but nothing too explicit. Immagination is the best for this

>>52065

Do it. Some really good stuff never leaves Pixiv, I can confirm it.

I got a package from China today.

Our 5 year anniversary is coming up in august and I was thinking about having a plush made of her what do you guys think?

Well decided to post these here.

>>53322

So I will be a kung fu master gatekeeper with dragon ancestors… and a very esigent vampire boss. I don't know if I should feel entirely happy… Jocking, I like Remilia so no problem

As for the questions:

>How does she deal with having a waifu?

She probably will be ok. But sometimes the loliness will hit her strong. And she'll manage to not show it, but yeah, it will be there. just like I feel sometimes

>Does she collect every piece of merch of you?

No, I don't think so. Only a couple, that's fine.

>Does she collect every picture of you she can get, or just the really nice ones?

Only the nice ones. Reasons are the same as >>53327

>Does she commission dakis, or are there official ones that are good?

Yes, I think she will. But she'll hide it in her room, and not let other people see it; that's because she's strong, and so she thinks that she has to hide her soft side.

>Does she tell her family about you?

No.

>Do her friends know, or does she frequent bizzaro /mai/ with everyone else?

Only the closest ones. And she'll be more a lurker than an active user.

>How does all this play out for her having a waifu?

It will be strange at first, with her not understanding exactly her feelings and how you could feel love for someone that's not real. But later on, she'll deal with it, and thinking about me will become natural and not weird.

>how does she deal Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

when I come to think of this, its actually a pretty big worry. Sui does not handle loneliness well. Perhaps I would help her cope with being without her sister, I hope I could help her through that. Sui would probably get really sad that i'm not real, like, crying sad, I hope my usual happy go lucky demeanor would cheer her up at least.

Also another problem is, she needs a medium, so I don't know how she will explain me to them, though imagining her hiding a daki of me in her little case is cute sounding, sneaking out to watch my anime late at night when nobodies watching.

Don't know how she would go abou getting commissions, perhaps on her mediums credit card. I don't know if she would tell her sisters, Souseiseki for sure, probably not the others. She probably posts on bizzaro /mai/ for sure probably has one of the others become her medium

>How does she deal with having a waifu?

Badly, I think. She would feel quite weirded out by herself with doing something so out of the ordinary.

>Does she collect every piece of merch of you?

In contrast to the previous answer, I guess not everything, but some. I imagine her having a reservoir of merch of me hidden away, since that would be her primary way to connect with me, though she would not be too crazy about it.

>Does she collect every picture of you she can get, or just the really nice ones?

Probably the latter, only those she would be fond of looking at from time to time to get some positive vibes in case she felt alone.

>Does she commission dakis, or are there official ones that are good?

Well, I am pretty sure that she would get herself a daki no matter what, so if there were one that she would like she get that one or comission one otherwise.

>Do her friends know, or does she frequent bizzaro /mai/ with everyone else?

I guess she would not be very open about her waifuism, it is not like she is a introverted person that does not wear her interests and parts of her personnality on the outside, but I think she would regard having a husbando to be much too embarassingly nerdy and socially awkward to be indifferent about showing it someone, even her friends. Thus it would leave her exlusively with bizarro /mai/ to talk about her beloved.

>Does she tell her family about you?

She most probably also would not tell her parents about me, because she would not want them to serriously worry about it, with her being the heir to their company.

>How does all this play out for her having a waifu?

I honestly can not tell. My worst vision would be, not at all. She would not know how to help herself with it and possibly could never accept living with it herself nor find much acceptance from anyone else she knows.

>How does she deal with having a waifu?

By not showing that she pays it any mind. After all, she doesn't want people to see her weak side, so this is one thing she wouldn't have in display.

>Does she collect every piece of merch of you?

Yes, but among other things, most likely five-fingered from other places.

>Does she collect every picture of you she can get, or just the really nice ones?

Just anything, really. Like she usually does with other things.

>Does she commission dakis, or are there official ones that are good?

She doesn't want to commission, but the official ones are relatively rare, I guess.

>Does she tell her family about you? Do her friends know, or does she frequent bizzaro /mai/ with everyone else?

Her lips her sealed, to her family and friends. Maybe she does visit bizzaro /mai/.

>How does all this play out for her having a waifu?

The usual: Doing what she wants, occasionally thinking of me sometimes.

>how does she deal with the loneliness of you not being real?

She just braves it, just as she always does with her intrapersonal problems.

>How does she deal with having a waifu?

I think she'd handle alright. I'm not sure how her long lifespan would start to play into it.

>Does she collect every piece of merch of you?

No, probably just a few of the nicer ones she comes across.

>Does she collect every picture of you she can get, or just the really nice ones?

Just the nice ones. After a while they'd start piling up so she'd tighten her standards for what gets saved like I have.

>Does she commission dakis, or are there official ones that are good?

She'd commission non-lewd dakis of me.

>Does she tell her family about you?

Maybe eventually. I don't think they'd be too thrilled about it.

>Do her friends know, or does she frequent bizzaro /mai/ with everyone else?

She might find her way to bizzaro /mai/ having taken an interest in these weird things called "chans" her husbando took a liking to.

>How does all this play out for her having a waifu?

I think she'd struggle with it for a while before eventually coming to terms with it all.

>how does she deal with the loneliness of you not being real?

She may employ methods to make me real. It'd be harder for her though since she's less of a loner than I am.

The phantom of her ex was a big hurdle for us to overcome it doesn't help she spends time with him every.single.day.

Eventually, I just learned to trust in her love and loyalty to me and that the past is in the past.

My advice to everyone is to focus on your relationship and not do what I did and almost let it completly consume you.
