Problematic Femslash Ship Tournament - Round 1

Lalondecest - Rose Lalonde x Roxy Lalonde (Homestuck) VS. 2zuki - Mizuki "Bibi" Kuranushi x Mizuki Date (AI The Somnium Files - Nirvana Initiative)

Info and propaganda under cut! This will not be spoiler-free.

Problematic elements for Lalondecest:

Incest² (Sister-Mothers)

Problematic elements for 2zuki:

mizuki date is a clone of mizuki kuranushi, who she calls bibi (short for big sis which she was too young to pronounce at the time). bibi is 6 years older than mizuki and shoots her in the beginning of the game, then consistently stalks her in order to protect her when she's in danger. after bibi reveals who she is to mizuki (who for most of the game doesn't even know that she had an older sister), they flirt with each other despite everyone knowing that they're sisters.

Propaganda for Lalondecest:

THEY LITERALLY YEARN FOR EACH OTHER!!!!! Roxy desperately yearns for her dead mother (who is technically Rose ((timeline shenanigans))) And Rose hates her mother (the mother in question absolutely adores rose) and rose and Roxy literally cling to eachother and love eachother <- guys cmon they are so yuriful

Propaganda for 2zuki:

bibi is OBSESSED with her little sister!!! they were both tortured in violent human experiments as children and bibi fought the scientist doing it to them put her own body in the way of a rotating drill in order to protect mizuki from being harmed. over the course of mizuki's life, bibi was always watching over her to make sure she could live a normal life without ever finding out what happened to her as a child. whenever mizuki was in danger, bibi would show up at the perfect time to protect her, as if she was always watching her. she even went as far as shooting a warning shot at mizuki to keep her from investigating the case that would lead to her finding out the truth about her. her in-game file lists her only skill as "guessing which panties mizuki date is wearing that day". despite firing a gun at her and keeping so many secrets from her, as soon as mizuki finds out bibi's true identity, she doesn't hold a grudge against her at all, and her normal brattiness disappears. she becomes soft around bibi and fully trusts her. after losing both of her parents and her adoptive father disappearing for 6 years, she finally has a big sis who loves her more than anyone else in the world and will always be with her!!!

Blushing while talking about an attempt on your life (not really, but she thought so)....you know, the normal response...

aitsf + 20, 11, and 9 for the violence ask game

9. worst part of canon: i don't want to say all of aini because that's mean and some parts of it were very good (i would die for ryuki and tama). so i'm gonna go with a toss-up between every time uchikoshi is unnecessarily horny (this includes most characters' treatment of iris and excludes everything tama has ever said) and kaname date's entire character and storyline in aini. making a big deal out of his disappearance only to reveal that he was just in atami and an amnesiac for six years is stupid. having his appearance stay the same because he "had a silicone mask of saito's face" is stupid. everyone had wild pre-release theories on how date could still be in saito's body and nearly every single one of them is more interesting than the truth. this is only the first question and it's already getting so long and i don't care. his entire treatment of aiba and mizuki. he lost aiba in the resolution route, she was the one who made him whole, and you expect us to believe that he'd get into a genuine fight with him and they'd separate? it's like the writers forgot that he's actually a genuinely compassionate person underneath all of his old man bickering. it's why mizuki route works so well- and speaking of mizuki, we were absolutely robbed of a proper reunion in aini. all we got was a poorly timed "welcome home" that was immediately followed up with another porno mag joke. because date's just the porno mag guy, we can't have him show any other emotions for too long or the game will explode. i'm going back to the mask thing real quick- it could've at least been interesting if they went into it as him preferring saito's face to his own. but they didn't. just a "ohhh the ladies like this one more" boy shut UP. i hate you pandering to new fans and defeating the point to a sequel. i love you version of aini that lives only in my head. oh god this is still only the first question. i'm so sorry chey

11. number of fandom-related words you've filtered: okay this is easy. i don't need to write an entire essay. only three- 2zuki, dateryu, and ryudate. 2zuki because it's fucking gross, and the ryudate tags because a lot of the fans are annoying and i don't think date would reciprocate. he's bagged the ultimate milf he doesn't have time for some twink

20. part of canon you found tedious or boring: hmm. well if we're going for boring i could say date's character in aini BUT i already wrote a whole essay on that so i'll pick a different answer. a lot of mizuki's side in aini was kind of boring/disconnected. i know in hindsight this is because half of the time you're not mizuki, you're bibi, but when you're playing for the first time you don't know that, and it makes mizuki seem watered down and bland compared to ai1. you have to withhold a lot of information from the player to pull off the timeline twist, and while it works, it comes at the cost of mizuki's characterization. she feels a lot flatter in aini because we're locked out of so much of the narration. the same can also be said for bibi, and we're locked out of even more of her true thoughts since the game misleads us into thinking she's mizuki. the result is that mizuki doesn't feel like herself, and we don't truly get to experience bibi's thoughts. i like bibi but her execution left a lot to be desired

wow that's over 500 words. sorry i have an illness

Testing, Testing. Mizuki and Bibi should kiss.

I almost made my title on here, “2zuki 4 Jesus” but I stopped myself because I figured that would bring up some wrong assumptions

mizuki date is a clone of mizuki kuranushi, who she calls bibi (short for big sis which she was too young to pronounce at the time). bibi is 6 years older than mizuki and shoots her in the beginning of the game, then consistently stalks her in order to protect her when she's in danger. after bibi reveals who she is to mizuki (who for most of the game doesn't even know that she had an older sister), they flirt with each other despite everyone knowing that they're sisters.

Propaganda for Golden Lily:

They are just the right person but wrong timeline. Golden cheese is a very outgoing party girl. white Lily is bookish and nerdy. Just the perfect opposites attract Yuri. Also Lily is literally Yuri and look at Golden cheese that is a lesbian

Propaganda for 2zuki:

bibi is OBSESSED with her little sister!!! they were both tortured in violent human experiments as children and bibi fought the scientist doing it to them put her own body in the way of a rotating drill in order to protect mizuki from being harmed. over the course of mizuki's life, bibi was always watching over her to make sure she could live a normal life without ever finding out what happened to her as a child. whenever mizuki was in danger, bibi would show up at the perfect time to protect her, as if she was always watching her. she even went as far as shooting a warning shot at mizuki to keep her from investigating the case that would lead to her finding out the truth about her. her in-game file lists her only skill as "guessing which panties mizuki date is wearing that day". despite firing a gun at her and keeping so many secrets from her, as soon as mizuki finds out bibi's true identity, she doesn't hold a grudge against her at all, and her normal brattiness disappears. she becomes soft around bibi and fully trusts her. after losing both of her parents and her adoptive father disappearing for 6 years, she finally has a big sis who loves her more than anyone else in the world and will always be with her!!!

PYP BONUS SEASON: Problematic Femslash Ship Tournament!

the bracket is too big to grab a screencap of it, but we'll add polls to this post as they are posted!

no particular "right" way to vote—you can vote for your faves, whatever looks the "most problematic" to you, or just click randomly!

the following will not be accepted and may result in a block:

harassment of people who ship or vote for the opponent of the ship you're rooting for.

excessively volatile comments towards the shippers of the opponent of your ship. (anti-propaganda is allowed, though, if it's targeted at the ship itself. "imo a/b is a stupid ship" is ok. "everyone who ships a/b is stupid" is not.)

general "anti-ship" sentiment—in this context, this doesn't refer to just being against a ship (that would be fine), but certain practices of moralizing over ships. for example, you'll be blocked if you suggest one ship is "morally wrong" to ship and encourage voting for the other based on this, or leaving any comments suggesting people who like a certain ship are a "bad person" for liking it. (it's fine if you vote based on the other ship being "too problematic" for your own liking, so long as you recognize this is a matter of your own personal tastes.)

we will not change our blog theme based on the winner of this tournament, as this is a bonus tournament.

seeding is based vaguely on popularity, but somewhat random
