Every self-insert visual novel protagonist ever 

I'm holding out for the remake to be released in English and the thought of how long I will have to wait makes me sad a little.

tsukihime? more like

I'm not a fan of r**e thank u

What’s the name of the music at the end?

@@puckered6036 im still laughing at this what a perfect response 😹😹😹

Tempted to make a line of death joke, but can't come up with one

@@SparkingEX well, I guess something *killed* your creativity.

@@Amelia_Whitevoid Nice pun, please make more!

@@Amelia_Whitevoid your joke got me *dead* bro

@@Amelia_Whitevoid I sometimes don't like being stared down, maybe that's why

thank you!

Yee

facts

the only reason why Nasu isn't in a asylum is sheer fucking luck

@@zeeadmirale1881 I believe this to be canon.

THIS CHAIR

This is true btw

Shiki in Melty Blood: maybe we should stop in here, my anemia is acting up again. Blah blah blah and more non sencial bad omens... yep, it was bad luck we encountered each other. This is what it means to kill things. Shiki in VN: my life is miserable but I'm ok. My lil' sis is defenseless and must be protected, she can't do anything by herself, she's that week. Ciel-senpai is best senpai since I knew her... and I got to know her since I got to know her back then. Hisui is without a doubt that silent girl in the window and Kohaku-san is the cheerful girl I used to play with, yep, no mistake in it; they may be twins but I can tell the difference. Why is Yumizuka-san interested in a nobody like me when she's so popular with the guys? *sees Arcueid walking in the street* I... MUST... R4P3 HER!!!"

@@abrahammesrajecorrea2349 I haven't read the vn, but that last sentence...what???

@@sanicboi9187 yeaaahhhhhhh.....it's about as weird in context.

If I had a nickel for every time a type moon protagonist sexually assaulted someone, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but is definitely concerning.

@@sanicboi9187 for context, the reason Shiki acts edgi af in Arcueid's route (at least in the OG, don't know about the remake) is because: A) his Nanaya blood. Shiki originally belongs to an old sacred family of supernatural assassins that seem to be natural born kiIIers. Despite Shiki didn't grow up with them, he has an inner desire to exterminate non humans when he sees them, even enhancing his physical condition despite his lack of training. All of this is simplified by him having bloodlust for non humans. B) Roa. Despite SHIKI was Roa's original vessel for him to reincarnate, when Shiki got killed and revived as a kid (the event that triggered his Mystic Eyes to manifest), he shared a link to SHIKI, and thus, to Roa. This is projected in Shiki having a sexual desire for Arcueid (since Roa is attracted to her) but also an innate hatred for her. This is also because Roa despises Arcueid. Later on, on Ciel's route we see how Roa constantly influences Shiki to be a total d1ck and even pins Kohaku to the wall while he m4sturbat3s on her. I dunno if remake Shiki is more chill, but OG Shiki can be pretty messed up due to exterior motives beyond his power lol.

Nah, Aoko is mostly all right, save for her Melty Blood Act Cadenza portrayal.

Nasu really love his crazy men

The only person i can think off the top of my head that isn't batshit insane is rin. Although she isn't in the best mental state after her father dying and her mother being a potato

@@mvalthegamer2450 Oh right, Carnival Phantasm.

according to ratings and reviews, not actually the case [blergh] redo of shitter actually has shockingly high ratings on some sites. Cuz y'know, manga audience not very mature [as people].

@@pallingtontheshrike6374 that was very out of context

@@pallingtontheshrike6374 someone tried to convince me that the author was actually a woman but I'm pretty sure it's a man who wears a fursuit to not get recognised

@@gabrielevignati6530 That... doesn't help. If anything that's far worse. At that point I think it would have been better if it was a woman.

That sentence applies to shit ton of self insert protagonists but everyone can instantly recognize its about Redo of Shitter

Aren't you biaser, Shiki Tohno? Jokes aside, Shiki was always kind of an asshole in the game, but he's generally a good guy. It makes him more interesting than if he was always good.

Pretty sure Shiki was the one doing the fucking.

@@skunthundler Oh, absolutely. He was indeed the one doing it.

Nice try, Shiki Tohno, but you can't lie your way out of this one.

@@kalipsy5700 W-what do you mean? I'm an honest protagonist! When have I ever let anybody down!!! Hahaha...

He does have a nice scrapbook though

True, at least in the manga she's treated better but Satsuki was built for suffering

The only other place where she got her time to shine was in that April's fool game Type Moon released that was basically a Visual Novel with elements of Saint Seiya and Pokémon. Where the main story was about her and some other fighting for their rights to be a "Type Moon heroine" and facing off the company's most popular girls like the golden knights from Saint Seiya... only for Satsuki to be the final boss as the "biggest heroine".

Isn't it sad, Sacchin?

I bet she doesn't bitch and whine as much as the protagonist though

Poor dear.😞

interesting observation, I can see that!

I hate to admit it, but this literally sums me up. I have close friends I've been with for years, but even then I don't talk to them much at all. Like, twice or 3 times a week for less than a minute. I've known them for so long I'd feel bad for just ghosting them one day, even though I constantly think about starting over a lot. Not only that, but I get so worn out meeting new people I stop talking to them fairly quickly, even if I think they're pleasant or nice to be around. It's like some sort of social stamina that gets drained extremely fast, I can't really explain it well. And then I feel all alone, and once I feel a bit happy socializing and making friends with others again, I just stop replying to them and get really tired or uninterested.

I can top the lack of attention you're giving to your friends I only meet them twice, maybe thrice a year and hardly write them. But when we do, it's awesome

Me

This generation is so fucked. Did I just read *extroverted introverts?*

Tbh, in this regard the routes differ only in just how fucked up shit he's going to experience.

I started reading it recently and started with this voice, though I subconsciously dropped it as the plot progressed.

​@@KirbyLinkACWDamn how come?

​Cuz in the visual novel he is not edgy. Most of the time he's a real nice guy that tease the people close to him and try to get along with them. The only time he says "rapey" or mean stuff is either because a) He's rightfully exhausted and in pain. b) Under the influence of drugs/spoilers. c) Both.

Holy shit you're right! Thank you for this revelation.

She also voiced a bunch of the kids in F Is For Family. And now you can never unhear that.

Shiki in the middle of Tsukihime: 😯😨😬

@@BLACKDISC How faithful is the remake, tsukihime is def my favorite vn.

in the very beginning of Tsukihime where this scene happens? most definitely. But the other 98% of the VN? I agree he's not

Didn't he actually walk Sacchin home?

@@Anonymous-zv9io He did in all the Far Side Routes, but certainly not in Ciel’s Route :V

Everybody gangsta till the self insert turns into a serial killer rapist

@@xoid_6729 Everyone: NOOO! You can’t kill Arcueid at the start of the VN! Shiki: Haha Mystic Eyes go brr

Come think of it , huh .

This is exactly what's happening in the comments lmao 😹

"He's exactly like me from high school" r/SuicideByWords

Oh thank me for getting out of that phase

@@Tan12 love the estelle bright avi!

Well self inserts don't always mean they are a bad character.

facts

Relax

Emotionally unstable women + thighs + ass = Best waifu!!!!!?????!!!!!!!!!??!

@@elly.a4153 yes.

Dunno about "doesn't have any over-exaggerated quirks", but definetly not self self-insert. I mean having double personality with one being depressed and other impulsive is a kind of a quirk.

I'd recommend it! Check out the pinned comment if you're interested in reading it.

nice avi

yes

Easily

Flynn Adachi pfp

Shiki can kill servants. Hell, we see him do it in one of the bad endings.

Nah Shirou Emiya is a self insert protagonist. Shiki Tohno is not.

@@jinnsylph9503 Shirou Emiya is such a self insert, that he's a suicidal teenager suffering from survivor's guilt and can't find joy in everyday activity. Nasu has done it again.

Neco arc is canon*

Slim chance, buddy.

Nice

Arihiko

Because he's insane too. He's ridiculously laid back. One of the options you get as him while suffering from amnesia is to high five a stranger. What an absolute loon.

@@seokkyunhong8812 I haven’t played the latest LB. But you’re telling me he does that?! damn

Isn't it because Gudao is LITERALLY a self-insert? It's a videogame after all, though it isn't an excuse for being so bland.

@@deuce5546 The funniest thing about Gudao being a self-insert is that because FGO fans in general are absolutely mental Gudao reflects that in the comics people make about him

Well in a sense his not completely normal too, I mean the kid tries to wrestling move a goddess that is trying to kill him, being surprisingly snarky and sarcastic to some of the easily angered servant, and with what's goin on in the lostbelt and the implication that Gudao is becoming something else is pretty not normal to me though

I agree! he's not a self-insert. I just needed a funny title

@@BLACKDISC Oh, ok. I'm not gonna blame you.

Not a self insert but, Hes 100% an audience surrogate meaning hes a average looking relateable Japanese teen readers are able to project themselves onto.

He’s exactly the opposite, he’s meant for the average joe to see themselves in that character

@@frostyfrenchtoast The average joe with obtrusive thoughts of rape and death that constantly haunt his troubled psyche.

Red Garden Shiki: "That Satsuki girl is kinda cute. Maybe I should give her a shot."

How could you not be?

That's the Tohno gland hard at work

Wait what?

​@@binkiebrewDon't think about it too deeply. He never rapes someone in the game. Like you have to choose the option of raping if you actually want him to be a rapist, and you'll get a deserved bad ending anyway. Also he never beats up Arihiko, he just insult him in a friendly way since they are best friends.

good news! They're doing both of those: Look up 'Tsukihime The other side of Red Garden'

@@BLACKDISC oh god, yes. I really need best girl back and yeah, I even remember an in-game image of a serious Satsuki with red eyes looking down while it was night time. Hope it won't take long for that game to come out.

WHAT?!

if u are girl though. yea goodluck. u are essentially having drink with ra,pist serial killer.

Ho ho ho!

Which one

@@Takeimika yes

"Tohno's anus is defenseless."

yeah this type of characterization must have been pretty unique for its time
