// yttd , yttd hate (? tagging just to be safe)

okay here's a quick thread compiling all the icky stuff nankidai's done and then I'll stop talking about this

some of the recent yttd 4komas have had rather questionable implications (translations by @/caradhinaa)
// transphobia

I love alice as a character and I love that we got trans representation, but the way he was written rubs me the wrong way. making it very ambiguous as to whether or not alice is "actually trans", giving him a traditionally feminine name (I'd like to note that -
// transphobia

- there's absolutely nothing wrong with a trans man using a "feminine" name, the issue here is that alice was written by someone who is, to my knowledge, a cis man) and then using his name reveal as a big plot point, it really just doesn't sit right with me.
// homophobia

also another really minor thing but it rubs me the wrong way that the only character that's actually fully confirmed to be lgbtq+ (kugie) is incredibly irrelevant, basically the first character to die, and never even really shown in game. I don't know if this was -
- intentional or just a shitty coincidence, but like with alice's writing it really rubs me the wrong way
that's all for now, if anyone has anything else let me know and I'll add it to the thread. you can still enjoy yttd as a game and you shouldn't feel bad about it (thankfully nankidai isn't profiting off of it), just be aware that nankidai himself is a scummy person.
