#shrimp plushie mc for the anime

[twstrhythm]

Imagine shrimp plush mc eating a shrimp dish. I can imagine Floyd just going, "gasp, cannibal" while shrimp mc just wants to eat in peace for one meal. Or even a little gag of people wondering if shrimp MC tastes like shrimp and them having to go, "don't you dare eat me" And the shrimp fried jokes would be so much more funnier.

Shrimp plush mc is a menace to them all. They make lots of shrimp related puns and look people in the eyes as they eat shrimp. Everyone wonders if they are truly a shrimp.

I don't think having mc be a shrimp plushie would work. It wouldn't be representative of anyone. Just answer the question: what do you think of a female mc?

I like the idea of shrimp plushie mc. ^-^

Sounds very cute and funny!

okay i wont be visiting twisted wonderland tag for a while cuz theres a whole fight out there about the mcs gender

[midnightcinderella]

All this yelling about whether anime!Yuu should be male or female is kinda grating on my nerves, especially since the answer is obvious. Anime!Yuu should be a shrimp plushie

I know that sounds like a joke but I'm serious. I was pleasantly surprised when the Obey Me anime decided to depict MC as a sheep plushie. MC in both games is supposed to be the player's self insert, and thus is gender neutral and does not have a set appearance.

Now, if Yuu were to have a set gender, already that alienates the players who do not identify with said gender. And beyond that, portraying Yuu as a human in the anime will give them a set appearance (which will likely be pale skin and dark hair), which will also make anyone that doesn't look similar feel left out. If this were to happen, save for a specific group of players, the magic of inserting yourself in the game/anime is broken

The Obey Me anime avoids that by portraying MC as a little plushie that, though it doesn't look like any human, is a recognizable symbol of the player; it's the default icon on your student profile. We still recognize it as ourselves and no one feels as if they're left out.

Not everyone is a male or a female and some people are neither. Not everyone has pale skin or dark hair. Not everyone is a certain height in comparison to other characters. But everyone is indeed Shrimpy

fandom4lesbians kept saying that an Asian character couldn't be Chinese despite said character having a Chinese name. They kept denying that the character was Asian and kept pushing that she was only black, made false claims that said character was based on a black musician which is obviously not true, and said people were disrespectful for liking the image of said character having her hair down which was shown in game. Something about how it was racist for people to prefer a "black" character with her hair down and straight eventhough said character is not confirmed to be black whatsoever.

As for the twst stuff they involved themselves in, fandom4lesbians kept going on and on and on and on and on about how the confirmed Twisted Wonderland anime should feature a female mc since manga and light novel already had a male and gender neutral mc. People were fine and supportive of them at first, but then they started saying that only sexists and misogynist were against having a female mc. They then continued to go on and on about how there would be more story possibilities if the MC was female rather than male or gender neutral. They kept saying the story would be more inclusive with a female mc, but really... having mc set to one gender would be exclusive since it wouldn't be representative of the male audience. So other people decided to make a joke and say "MC should be sentient shrimp plushie!" fandom4lesbians took this as offensive and started saying people against mc being female and the people saying "shrimp mc" had a cult mind and were misogynist.

That is all.

The first paragraph of what you said is exactly the subject of a submission that I received. I ended up getting it on to the queue right away because I want to see the responses to it.

woke: female mc for anime

bespoke: anime mc is represented by a shrimp plushie

awakened: the anime is made like this one kuroshitsuji ova where we are looking through mc's eyes, sometimes literally

[primeministerofantarctica]

the way i see it the only two solutions to the anime twst mc problem is to either make them blatantly nonbinary OR a giant shrimp plushie that everybody acts like is another student

 Happy Monday, minna-san! Warm sun and blooming flower buds have arrived. Spring is almost here. I hope everyone is ready to ditch those heavy coats and toasty sweaters. With that said, let’s this show on the road. We got loads of fun to share. First off, last week’s episode intensity is increasing more. We first see Perospero and the rest of the siblings doing their thinking time as they figure how they can get to Wano and hope they can find their mom. At Kuri Wastelands, Big Mom is tagging along with Chopper and the gang heading to Udon as Kiku explains that it’s a long journey to reach the land.  At another hideout, Nami & the gang have finally reached to safe place to hide out for a while because of the scandal. Robin was able to find out most of the stuff she could figure out. Brook tells Robin he found poneglyph stone, but it’s not red like the one from Zou. The girls decided to go to a bathhouse to relax. At the capital, the entire country of Wano mourn for the death of Komurasaki and will be holding a funeral in her honor. Meanwhile, Sanji and the guys are hiding in some shelter and reading the news about Komurasaki and the scandal that the girls have caused. Back in prison, poor Luffy is getting spit on by a jerk gifter name Apalcaman who is half man, half apalca. He’s all bullying the poor captain and just spitting as he’s talking. Yuck! He’s all telling Luffy off that he’ll be punished if he had anything to do with Kid’s escape which that news spread out as well. At the end, Luffy notices as the poor old man Hyou, the prisoner he saved, was getting bullied again and the gifters are forcing to tell him how he got many kibidango. Old man Hyou refused to answer as he mentions a hero he looked up to back then name Hyougoro of the flowers. I guess you could say he was the samurai Robin Hood. Anyway, Luffy had enough of seeing him getting trashed around he rushed to his rescues as the other prisoners begged him to not interfere that would lead to death. At the gate, the fearsome top commander Queen arrived at prison. What in the world is he there for? Who is this Hyougorou of the flowers? Is Kyoshiro an ally or a foe? GAH! So many questions. No chapter this week so it’s a break until next week. Next, this past weekend’s episode was intense. Luffy and Sanji finally made it back to Sunny and the others. Everyone was happy, but not out of the woods. The Germa siblings are keeping the Big Mom pirates away from the gang while back at Chiffon’s island, they arrived and placed the cake on shore. They wait for Big Mom’s arrival to see this moment through hoping that the cake will stop her sugar rush. Back at sea, Judge passes by the gang as he asked Luffy if all this trouble to save Sanji was worth it. He gave no answer and instead thanked him for helping out. It made him angry to hear such answer. At the end, the gang are trapped by all the fleets when suddenly, Wadatsumi and Sun pirates arrived to help Jimbei and the others. Next time, the Sun pirates face the Big Mom pirates while Mama herself is about to enjoy the cake. Will it satisfy her? Or disgust her? Don’t miss it! Now on with the goods. Tongari-san couldn’t be here tonight since March is gonna be busy month, but we got his telegram. He mentions that yummy birthday menu to celebrate Sanji and Sabo’s birthday has been posted. First, they’ll have Sanji’s swirly sausage burger with a black burger to match his suit and yummy potato hearts with some ketchup. For beverage, they have have flambe shot’s orange tea with some whip cream and orange drizzle. You can also order a fountain drink that comes in a plastic bottle of Sanji which is yours for free. (FYI: no BD bromide card). For Sabo’s dish, they have his Night Fire Fist spicy carbonara shrimp ramen with fish cake of his hat. If you order any of these dishes, you’ll get a free BD bromide card. Next, stores will be selling these new pouches of Sunny, Heart pirates, Straw Hat pirates in orange, black, & red color. It will be available on March 12th. The store will also have new tower coins in color of the characters such as Luffy, Chopper, Zoro, Sanji, Ace, Law, & Sabo. It’s 600 yen. Next, Anime Japan will be selling these hamster buttons of the boys including Ace & Sabo for one day. Not sure if other local stores or Animate stores will have them in stock, but you can ask. But this is only sold at the event for now. Next, check out the new visual for the 20th anniversary event at the Umihotaru Passenger Ship in Yokohama. More details of events and goods will be announced later. Next, J-League has announced a collab with OP. They’re selling loads of neat buttons, t-shirts, and hand towel from popular soccer teams. If you live w/in the country, you can order it. Payment can be made by credit card or COD (cash on delivery). We’ll leave a link for those interested. Next, Ehime prefecture will be opening a temporary Mugiwara Store at the Emfiul Masaka mall. Limited ed. goods will be announced soon. It will open from March 21st to April 7th. Ehime is known for having tasty oranges. Nami goods will probably the original goods, but be on the look-out for the announcement. Next, this Saturday, stores will be selling new mugi mugi plushies. This time, East Blue Zoro, Ussop, along with a pair set of lil’ Zoro & Kuina. Very cute! Next, get groovy! Get funky! Oh, no one says that anymore right? How embarrassing. Ahem! Anyway, On March 27th, stores will be selling this 20th anniversary OP CD Best Album. It will have all the openings and endings. CD album will only have the songs, as for the special album will have Blu-ray DVD of the animation openings and endings. Relive all the songs from 20 years. Next, OP app game, Thousand Store, is having a short event of Skypiea Island. Level up & you’ll receive Gan Fall w/ Pierre & Eneru as players. Last, but not least, I hope everyone got a chance to see the new trailer of the new OP movie, Stampede. Last week, Oda-sensei & staff released new sketches of new bad guys: one is named Douglass Bullet who supposedly is a former member of the Gold Roger pirates, and the entertainment MC, Buena Festa. Trailer also released that Law, Smoker, Tashigi, and the Buggy pirates will be in the movie. SO HAPPY! I can’t wait to see them. Today, they have released new designs of the Straw Hats wearing some neat looks. For those who live in Japan, don’t forget this Friday all movie theaters will be selling tickets to the movie and buttons will be given free. Check your local theater form your area. Phew! I think we got everything. That’s all we got! Tune in next week for more news and goods. Boys! Job well done as always. Let’s call it a night.

I don't think having mc be a shrimp plushie would work. It wouldn't be representative of anyone. Just answer the question: what do you think of a female mc?

Shrimp plushie mc would be cute though

[twstschemer]

All hail our lord and savior shrimp MC!

All hail our lord and savior shrimp MC! :D

[twstrhythm]

I have now realized you are just having fun with the idea of shrimp mc. I'll cheer you on.

Yes. Yes I am. Shrimp mc would be a fun idea. It may seem jarring at first, but it would be funny to see a shrimp just floating around during the plot.

Shrimp mc kicking ass.

Shrimp mc making shrimp jokes.

I live for all that.

[twstrhythm]

Are you actually serious about mc being a shrimp?

hehe shrimp mc.

[twstrhythm]

All hail our lord and savior shrimp MC!

Praise the shrimp

[twstrhythm]

I hate doing this kind of thing, but here goes. I’m just getting annoyed that this is constantly happening now.

Seeing the tag get filled up with the female mc vs male mc discourse is getting really annoying. I get people want a female mc for the anime, but to say that “there are more story possibilities with a female mc than male mc” comes across as alienating and excluding. It just rubs me the wrong way. Story plots can be done with male or female mc. It wouldn’t be much different aside from the MC’s appearance. Having one gender doesn’t make it so that there are more or less story ideas. It would be the same either way with minor tweaks to it.

And the “The people against having a female mc for twst have a cult mindset.” thing also feels wrong. It kind of feels like people are being villainized for liking the idea of having a male mc. You may think that by praising and promoting the idea of female mc is great, but being so pushy about it can turn people away from the idea. For some people, having something constantly pushed in their faces makes them less inclined to support it. You can promote the idea of having a female mc without putting down the idea of having a male mc.

As many people have suggested, why can’t we just have MC be represented by a shrimp plushie? It would solve this whole gender debate since plushies are plushies and don’t have a set gender. Plus many people already represent mc with a shrimp. MC of the game is gender neutral, so the plushie could be a good representation of MC. It would be kind of cute.

[twstrhythm]

What do you think of the idea of MC being female for the anime?

Hmm... I personally believe MC shouldn't be female or male. A gender neutral or non-binary MC would work for this whole issue. This whole debate about whether or not MC should be female is kind of annoying if you ask me. The anime may have been confirmed to be happening, but we don't know what direction the story is taking yet. It is too soon to be debating this.

As I have seen many people say already, MC for the TWST anime can take the same route the Obey Me anime did with their MC. Just make the MC a sentient shrimp plushie. Plushies don't have a set gender after all. Plus I have seen plenty of people depict MC as just a shrimp already in their art, so why not have that for the anime?

More stuff under the cut.

Also... it feels kind of strange that there is someone going around asking random twst tumblrs this question. It kind of feels like you are trying to stir up drama by asking people to see if they say something that would look bad.

Mostly saying this because it feels like you are trying to find someone that will flat out say “MC shouldn’t be female, MC should be male.” Which is someone’s own opinion, mind you. Someone wanting male mc content over female mc content does not make them sexist.

I am aware that I chose to make my Yuu male which may have been the reason I was asked this, but I am female myself. I just like the idea of a small male mc with glasses, but that is my preference. I know this isn’t the canon depiction of MC and won’t claim that it is because this is my own interpretation. The beauty of having a MC with no appearance for a game means that people are allowed to imagine how they want their MC to look, and I think that is great!

That’s all I have to say about this now.

To whoever reads this: Hope you have a nice day, take care!
