Duster + Ensei

Ensei: It’s surprising what you are able to find on the internet now and days. I’m not talking about your daily doses of **** and ****s, surly you know what **** are. Thus didn’t feel like typing them out because I’m sure it’ll come up in the search engine, which it’s not something I want to see or making people misunderstand. However, no, nothing like that, it’s more long the lines of horrendous Chinese doujins. Have you ever wonder how people dump them out faster than speed of light? Perhaps I can give some details of the insights. You see, within the world of romance (fanfic wise), there are always ambition of distributing the sorrowful sins that resides amount us humans. So does that apply to every story? “Of course it does!” or so you think I would say. Truth to be told, I can not understand the reason of the “love-love” stories. How was it possible that more than one person’s story ended up being the same bullshit over and over? Even an animal is smart enough to understand not to touch something that could hurt his or her pride. I suppose in the world of fandom, the fans are what can back you doujinshi up.

Duster: Today, it’s probably very natural to see how corrupted fans can do just to satisfy their wishes. I swear, I have never been so scared by human desire before. Now it has become so clear when a light shines at a soon-to-be-published doujin. Before it goes public we just wanna comment a few things. Really, just when will people start to get tired reading and looking at the same theme over and over again. Let’s see, if you go to the second fanfiction on f**f******.net and under the “Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha”, just guess what that story is about. Yes, it’s about the story between nanoha and fate, and how both of them are in some sort of torture. Love can hurt sometimes, right? Yes, the same tears and the same hearts that keep on repeating. The same dialougs that always have the same love-responses. Guess what, probably even the graveyard that they died (whether in a mission or car accident) exists internationally, too. I have no idea how many times characters incarnated. But that doesn’t really matter, because it always touches fans’ souls.

Ensei: Ever since the day Duster and I posted our short comics online, I have always felt a little wary. Not because someone might stole our work, though it did happened before. It was the searches people typed in order to find what they were looking for. I assure you, there are no ways in the world they are able to find ***tai, because not all doujishi draw ***tai. Then for the doujinshi do indeed draw ***tai to gain recognition are something else to see.

Duster: Everything with the label of ‘fans’ can only extend this far. Amazingly, within that small gap of distance, everyone finds a zone of comfort. Yeah, more kiss theme please, more legs are up in the sky theme please. Is it really a fashion now for every doujinshi artist to draw some form of ***tai at some point in their lifetime? Just for the sake of a recognition, just for one recognition? Take a closer look at this. Does that cool pose remind you of anything? Yeah, it makes your heart burn and it’s very manly. Nanoha, if my eyes do not faile me, she does look like a girl. In the show, she does wear skirt. In the comic, she does act very girly. She is not nanoha, but she is, which one is it? How about let’s give it a try: I shall draw a half naked nanoha kissing fate. Surely, this drawing will be on a**mesuki and next day. what is the point of us doing something that’s not like that, you can guess. The Nanoha-characters are corrupted.

Ensei: Let’s take that artist from the infamous yamibo for example. S/he got this comic going on for, again with the word infamous, Nanoha. Should fans be happy? I can gladly tell you now, no. It isn’t worth you money. Yes, this person actually selling merchandises along with the doujin, of course. How is it not worth it you ask? Well, let’s take a look what this artist is capable of. Never have I come across a decent fanfiction or doujin on yamibo that I actually like, besides stories/comic from MizukiF, Rei, Axon, rafuiru and 九燕 (also leoheart but mostly on his site), which in another words, this person is horrable at what she or he is doing.

Duster: Horriable good, we must say. There’s no doubt people enjoy reading what this person do. And it’s really deadly, becasue after reading that person’s first doujin, Ensei really puked out her dinner, I was also in the same situation…. Distorted….. it’s too distorted….Almost as if those artist and writers, their dedications worth nothing at.

Ensei: Please don’t misunderstand us, we merely wanted to point out the faults that can’t be see by fans. They do say, “love makes people blind.” You see, we also trying to learn from the mistakes we made, however, people like above neither learning anything nor improving. Meaning this isn’t the first doujin that had published under the same artist. So we pray one day there are some decent Chinese Nanoha doujin out there that are worth of seeing.

Ensei&Duster: In case people doesn’t understand the repetitiveness in the minds of those writer/doujinshi, here are the result by reading almost all of the romance centered stories.
