The general "anime" style tends to favor large eyes that allow for more facial expressiveness with less detail needed for the rest of the face, which also results in a larger head-to-body ratio so there is a certain neoteny in character design compared to real life, but it's not necessarily about trying to slip in "underage" characters.

For what it's worth, Western animation does this a lot, too.

If we look at Homer Simpson's design, his head's about 1/4th of his overall height, and his eyes are in turn about 1/4th of his face.

Betty Boop would be another good example. Again, huge head, huge eyes, tiny body. In a way, you can consider her as being a sort of early example of "Chibi" or "Super-deformed" character design.

Worth noting Disney (from before they renamed themselves to Deeznuts) was a major inspiration for Osamu Tezuka's everything. And I'm pretty sure one of the many Disney animators at the time laid out an entire infographic on what makes a character look cute - using a cartoon toddler as an example, but applied to many more things. Bambi, as one example.

Part of the background is that Null, during his time as an admin for 8chan, had to deal with a lot of hardcore lolicons of the extremely unironic variety, who from what he said would constantly try and get away with posting loli hentai and engage in sophistry when he tried to crack down. This led to him taking an extreme stance on the matter that he applies to anything that involves the graphical depiction of characters with what he considers to be underage characteristics. The general "anime" style tends to favor large eyes that allow for more facial expressiveness with less detail needed for the rest of the face, which also results in a larger head-to-body ratio so there is a certain neoteny in character design compared to real life, but it's not necessarily about trying to slip in "underage" characters.

Another aspect is that, in the broader weeb-o-sphere, everyone knows Those Types exist, and people make jokes about it, without actually endorsing the behavior. But on the other hand, some of Those Types try and use that as cover to push boundaries, and they tend to be single-minded in doing so in a way that is more trouble than most people are willing to go to to push back for long enough to make them go away. So for many people, they just try and ignore them and move on.

Given how candidly she discussed this though, and reading between the lines on some streams with the other girls, (Jelly pretty nakedly does this as well, though detractors would likely dismiss it as being a pick me) I think Phase actually does a ton of audience shaping like this.

Reminds me on how the Ralph went from having a (somewhat) normal audience but when he drove away his co-hosts and fully transitioned into the Gunt, all he was left with were tards, glue huffers and paypigs who couldn't see that their host degenerated into a total lolcow.

What makes Phase's fandom interesting is diverse but similar because of the varying Chuubas that they host.

On Kirsche's trip to 2015... this damn propaganda is plastered all over schools here in Commiefornia. Kinder, Elementary, Middle and without a doubt, High School. The 'Be Kind' propaganda is just there to create docile-ass niggercattle... except it doesn't work on niggers that well or any other brown but it sure works on the whiteys that don't deal with the aformentioned browns. I'd even go far and say that this propaganda is meant for the teachers and students are expected to put their sorry asses on a pedestal.

2025 School Propaganda.webp

Its honestly infuriating how held back as a society we are since 2015. If anything, kids are still assholes to each other and teachers are stuck being glorified babysitters. Vid still very relevant to the life of a teacher. A misc fun fact, they don't enforce dress code anymore. Girls here dress like absolute sluts.


Slight powerlevel, the curriculum has devolved alot. Students who are absolute fuck-ups are allowed to graduate with the lessons that barely teach anything but the propaganda train doesn't stop. Pozzed states like Commiefornia are dead set in creating the 'Modern audience'.

Waiting for Stray to get the new Foxu News out so I could also witness the horrors of American (re)education camps.

I like Alana's model a lot but I think Kirsche's model from the Jim stream is 1000% better than her old 3d model and better than Alana's. Just a shame she got screw like 3 or 4 times over before she got that model.

Probably doesn't hurt that pretty much all of Kirsche's models are either ancient, done for free by fans (her business model), or not delivered because artists and riggers fucking ghost her.

smugalana's model itself is pretty darn good yeah, but what really makes it stand out to me is the absolutely masterful rigging, everything is weighted ridiculously well and she's really good at controlling it. i can honestly think of only one other that i've seen that impresses me more, the vtuber/artist herself doesn't even stream and the rigger's own model is garbage in comparison, but hot damn does he know his way around the tools

i saw this type of thing happening as early as 2003 and it only got worse every year. the thing that really got me was how my graduating class had multiple kids who never showed up for a single class ever. one of them even got arrested in school for some gang shit they were involved in. but somehow they got to graduate no trouble. meanwhile kids who were homeschooled would get held back simply because they did not have enough gym credits.

at some point schools got so fucked up from everyone trying to use them as a means to control kids that they just gave up on the actual education part and now as a result kids today are retards that cant do anything and either troon out or get so depressed they turn to drugs and become a burden on tax payers.
