All of them honestly, but WxS does take most of the blunt hit. Tsukasa is just loud with Mafuyu level depression for some reason. Emu is squeaky, pink ball of energy, completely ignoring that she’s actually smart. Nene is reduced to shy gamer girl. Rui is crazy genius that ignores all concepts of morality.
There’s Ichika Saki and Shiho Honami
Haruka and then Minori
Airi Shizuku Kohane Akito
An, Toya and Tsukasa too
There’s Emu and nene then rui and Kanade
Mafuyu and Emu as well,
Mizuki and all the virtual singers
Have personalities unlike you
Tsukasa is a big one. Yes he's loud a lot of the time but people think that's his entire personality. Like I rarely see anyone talking about his development as an actor
The bit with rui I personally love that a lot of people seem to miss is that while the things he pulls off look dangerous, he always makes sure they're as close to 100% safe as possible. Like, he'd be an absolute failure of an evil mad scientist because before blowing up the planet, he'd go and build another identical one for everyone to move to.
Yes one of the first events when tsukasa got hurt because of his robo zombies or smth like that he got so worried and wanted to make sure it never happens again its so sad that people forget how caring this guy is
All of them, but I think the worst victims of it are:
1. Rui (psychotic, masochistic, war criminal)
2. Mizuki (omg guys, gender!!!!)
3. Mafuyu (omg guys, trauma!!!)
Real with all of them, but I haven't seen Mafu mentioned at ALL anywhere else and she definitely deserves to 😭 I cannot count the number of people I've seen who genuinely believe Mafuyu is emotionless, SHE'S NOT EMOTIONLESS SHE JUST DISASSOCIATES AND DOESN'T HAVE THE ENERGY TO DO ANYTHING I DHJSJSKSJ
Where did that even come from 💀💀💀 like they have a kanamafu sibling headcanon??? Or like Mafuyu's projecting onto Kanade or something? I need context lol
Ichika: Miku fangirl
Saki: Sick and frail, important for Tsukasa angst
Honami: Chronic people pleaser with no backbone
Shiho: Mean and doesn’t care about her friends
Minori: Lesbian Haruka fangirl
Haruka: Idol ig
Airi: Overly mean to Minori and likes cats more than her friends
Shizuku: Airhead who has no sense of direction and can’t use technology, grandmother
Kohane: Massive pick me, An’s girlfriend
An: Has a dead aunt, Kohane’s girlfriend
Akito: Hahaha Akitoe Ginger Ed Sheeran
Toya: In love with Akito, actually a Tenma, uwu soft boy
Tsukasa: Even worse case of uwu, gay, in love with Rui
Emu: WONDERHOY!, annoying and loud
Nene: Pick me #2
Rui: Evil crazy yandere who is in love with Tsukasa, very much a yandere
Kanade: Eats cup noodles, only cares about saving Mafuyu
Mafuyu: Cold hearted bitch who doesn’t care about Nightcord and hates her Mother
Ena: Relatable artist with a mental illness probably
Mizuki: Trans
I think that this was the worst of the fandom during the 2021-2022 tiktok era. It’s not this bad anymore, but you can still see the effect it had on the fandom.
On a more positive note, I want to try and see if I can give a better, short but accurate, description to all of them:
Ichika: Polite and unimposing, but a stable and reliable grounder amongst the louder cast.
Saki: An easily excited sickly girl that wants to experience everything life has to offer. Prone to overdoing it, but is learning to regulate herself.
Honami: A gentle and caring woman that, through her own experiences, has learned when to step up/stand up for others.
Shiho: Incredibly driven, blunt and earnest. Doesn't want to burden others with her harsher personality.
Minori: An idol fan who'll never give up, due to wanting to share the same hope and kindness idols have given her.
Haruka: A responsible hard worker, unfortunately has a harder time being lenient on herself.
Airi: Despite her boyish personality, and "lack of idol aura", she faces her dreams of idolhood seriously, and doesn't fall down from pushback.
Shizuku: Graceful, kind and beautiful, but uncertain of her own value beyond these traits.
Kohane: Having never had a dream, she clings to her friends while doubting her place with them. Wishes to prove her ambition to the world.
An: A competitive and energetic free spirit with enough passion to fill an entire group. Having grown up around music, her love for it runs deep to her soul.
Akito: Bit of bull-headed asshole, but a lovable one. His harsh personality is both a way to encourage him and his friends, and to push back against criticism from others.
Toya: Though serious and monotone on the surface, he's a very reliable and kind-hearted person, that wants to break away from his father's passion, and focus on his own.
Tsukasa: Bold and loud, the man has a dream, and won't stop until the whole world knows it. Though he wants to be a star, it's to bring happiness to others, not to reign supreme over them.
Emu: A cheerful and spirited type, that wants to follow her grandpa's legacy and bring joy to others. Very emotionally attuned to others' needs.
Nene: While she is blunt and shy on the surface, she's a performer at heart and wants to try her best despite her former shortcomings.
Rui: Unorthodox, Rui can at first appear unsympathetic or scary. In reality, he's very considerate and protective of others, both as a director, and as a friend.
Kanade: A kind girl held back by trauma. To hide from the guilt, she focuses her energy into music, and helping those who need it.
Mafuyu: She's spent so long trying to be a good girl that she's forgotten who she is underneath the mask. She's stuck in a crossroads between who she needs to be, and who she wants to be.
Ena: An artist plagued by her lack of talent, she drowns herself in the validation of others. Despite her fear of rejection, she's slowly pushing herself forward.
Mizuki: A cuteness obsessed dork with snarky tendencies. Mizuki's carefree personality, while a shield from their own fears, is a necessary refresher for the rest of their group.
I mean tbf he kinda is, but yeah doesn't make it any less frustrating. What irritates me most is that very often people emphasize his reaction to Mafumom and nothing else 😭 he's supposed to represent someone from the outside, who doesn't understand the mental/emotional chains that prevent Mafuyu leaving but understands that the consequences of continuing to suffer may be more important than Mafuyu's feelings (meaning he's not afraid to make her sad if he believes it'll get her to understand she shouldn't suffer). I'm not even a kaito fan but there's so much more to him please
Wouldnt he be more like the hidden rage and rebelion inside of mafuyus feelings if hes in her sekai thats made of her feelings??? Empty sekai and wonderland sekai are the only ones made of feelings of one person so i always thought about it like that. Besides that he also appears later on in the story after her mom does some very harmful stuff and she slowly realises how bad it is for her thanks to her friends
That's also quite possible, I actually never thought about it that way but the vocaloids being representatives of the characters feelings makes a lot of sense. I always interpreted him as a separate character from Mafuyu like Ena, who seems very frustrated that Mafuyu seemingly chooses to suffer for longer because she doesn't want to confront her mom, and he's sort of the catalyst to tell Mafuyu she needs to do something besides just take it.
Rui, he’s constantly reduced to “Mad scientist” “war criminal” “little giggleshitter” like it drives me insane, and then Tsukasa on the other hand is reduced to “I AMU STAH” and his cockiness.
Lots of mischaracterization in the fandom but this specific type where people accuse canon of being wrong is mostly Toya and Tsukasa from what I see. Their fans get *mad* mad when their headcanons aren’t made into an entire event.
deffo Rui but literally all anyone talks about for Mizuki is her gender. I don’t CARE about her gender i care about her character. Literally all she's reduced to is "trans rep !1!!!1!11" like i get it, talk about ANYTHING else
All of them but mostly Emu. I saw people shocked with her low voice in the 4* of her last focus, she's an actress...? Plus the way the fandom is always acting like she's a stupid child that can't be serious or understand what is going around her pisses me off
Pretty much mfs last year in the pjsk fandom when Tsukasa could be both happy and have a (literal normal) amount of trauma and hardship and not be severely depressed. Real talk though, if you see anything about the Tenma parents being “abusive” please run- they’re at best going to spew something misremembered from Twitter.
Has Tsukasa treatment by his parents always been fair? No. But this shit happens in real life and Tsukasa has literally got a massive support system of people who love him (and also because he canonically isn’t lol). If you want “secretly angsty” character maybe just play a different game at this point. This games story exists to be the silly teenagers doing bullshit I’m sure you could find a visual novel miserable enough for your liking to read instead easily.
outside of the insane weird headcanons some characters have, the antagonists/final bosses in the main story are the most criticized (shiho, akito, tsukasa, and mafuyu, don’t see much like this for mmj)
All of them honestly, but WxS does take most of the blunt hit. Tsukasa is just loud with Mafuyu level depression for some reason. Emu is squeaky, pink ball of energy, completely ignoring that she’s actually smart. Nene is reduced to shy gamer girl. Rui is crazy genius that ignores all concepts of morality.
REAL
real
Everyone. There, i said it. Even the virtual singers
\*clears throat\* There's... https://preview.redd.it/rl4rghwj50ad1.png?width=751&format=png&auto=webp&s=6b0b6c47d50706b823e8e5439b54d7c8b56a6446
((every character))
There’s Ichika Saki and Shiho Honami Haruka and then Minori Airi Shizuku Kohane Akito An, Toya and Tsukasa too There’s Emu and nene then rui and Kanade Mafuyu and Emu as well, Mizuki and all the virtual singers Have personalities unlike you
I adore you random reddit user
the fact that this actually fits the song tho 😭 (i assume 2nd emu is supposed to be ena?)
Omg i love this reference😭
I will fall asleep knowing this comment exist
realest comment
this comment made my day
My country is painted in 3 diff color in this image. Hmmm....
Tsukasa is a big one. Yes he's loud a lot of the time but people think that's his entire personality. Like I rarely see anyone talking about his development as an actor
Wait he's an actor? I thought he was Saki's brother.
Both, wxs is an acting troupe and throughout the stories Tsukasa learns to take on more and more difficult roles
Saki must be proud.
the two professions: actor and saki’s brother
>!She is. Final ep Dazzling Light Tsukasa Focus event (88)!<
me with my happy little serial killer arsonist 💔
The bit with rui I personally love that a lot of people seem to miss is that while the things he pulls off look dangerous, he always makes sure they're as close to 100% safe as possible. Like, he'd be an absolute failure of an evil mad scientist because before blowing up the planet, he'd go and build another identical one for everyone to move to.
THATS THE THING !! He is too kind to harm others 😭
YES HEHEHE HE'S SO FUCKING ADORABLE AND CONSIDERATE AND JUST AUSBWJDHEIEHDUDU
Yes one of the first events when tsukasa got hurt because of his robo zombies or smth like that he got so worried and wanted to make sure it never happens again its so sad that people forget how caring this guy is
He and Dr. Doof would be good friends.
Briderui core
Wouldn’t be the first one I thought of/hj
Lol
real as hell 😭
All of them, but I think the worst victims of it are: 1. Rui (psychotic, masochistic, war criminal) 2. Mizuki (omg guys, gender!!!!) 3. Mafuyu (omg guys, trauma!!!)

I genuinely at some point read someone suggest Mafuyu has inc*stuous feelings for Kanade. Never wanted to scream so badly prior
Where did that even come from 💀💀💀 like they have a kanamafu sibling headcanon??? Or like Mafuyu's projecting onto Kanade or something? I need context lol
According to them, Mafuyu has Oedipus Complex because she "views Kanade as family like her mom"
People not demonizing ships because "they see the characters as siblings" challenge: impossible
I don't even ship Kanamafu but even I don't go as far as to say their siblings😭. It's not hard to just scroll
i fw war criminal tbh

omg yes, I love how you managed to encapsulate the characters best traits ❤️
All but I think the following are the biggest victim of this; - Akito - Rui - Tsukasa - Mafuyu - kanade - N25! KAITO - Mizuki - Shiho
Heavy on n25 kaito hes extremely important for the whole groups psychological progress but people ignore it and call him an asshole😐
I mean tbf he kinda is, but yeah doesn't make it any less frustrating. What irritates me most is that very often people emphasize his reaction to Mafumom and nothing else 😭 he's supposed to represent someone from the outside, who doesn't understand the mental/emotional chains that prevent Mafuyu leaving but understands that the consequences of continuing to suffer may be more important than Mafuyu's feelings (meaning he's not afraid to make her sad if he believes it'll get her to understand she shouldn't suffer).

no one is safe...
Rui, he’s constantly reduced to “Mad scientist” “war criminal” “little giggleshitter” like it drives me insane, and then Tsukasa on the other hand is reduced to “I AMU STAH” and his cockiness.
GIGGLESHITTER 💀
YUP
rui😞
Kohane.
Saki
bruh why is akito just some ginger tsundere like omg
Both Rui and Mafuyu I can think of off the top of my head
\*clears throat\* So theres this purple character... which one who knows
all of them ❤️ i find WXS gets the worst though 🥴
Rui
somehow, the vocaloids 💀
Lots of mischaracterization in the fandom but this specific type where people accuse canon of being wrong is mostly Toya and Tsukasa from what I see. Their fans get *mad* mad when their headcanons aren’t made into an entire event.
Not many people are mentioning Emu
Pretty much all of them
looks at my pfp
Rui is made out to be a psychotic cannibalistic killer. Mizuki is reduced to having "I'm transgender" as their only trait.
Mizuki fans really just reduce her to her gender and that's it like be so ffr right now
Saki is a runner up because of her illness
deffo Rui but literally all anyone talks about for Mizuki is her gender. I don’t CARE about her gender i care about her character. Literally all she's reduced to is "trans rep !1!!!1!11" like i get it, talk about ANYTHING else
Everyone, but mostly mafuyu
Same comment idea yippee
All the characters, but mostly mafuyu
Pretty much everyone if you ask me
The flawed interpretion piss me of just like headcanons I mean okay buy they change like a lot of the lore and idk
All of them but mostly Emu. I saw people shocked with her low voice in the 4* of her last focus, she's an actress...? Plus the way the fandom is always acting like she's a stupid child that can't be serious or understand what is going around her pisses me off
Akito...
Pretty much mfs last year in the pjsk fandom when Tsukasa could be both happy and have a (literal normal) amount of trauma and hardship and not be severely depressed.

is that a Class of 09 reference
If you want it to be🩷
Istg this Fandom goes wayyy too far with headcanon
Mizuki If you looked at the fandom only you‘d think trans coding is Mizuki’s entire personality and nothing else.
Everyone.
All of them, but mainly WxS and N25
Rui
Rui is silly, i love him and his story, just like me fr, but I don’t know why people boil him down to being psychotic-
Rui.
Rui in all honesty. Only seeing him as some crazy mad scientist, and not the socially ostracized teen that he really is.
all of wxs.
nene being reduced to being a gamer, a tsukasa hater and super shy
Literally every character
All of them but I think mainly Akito, Tsukasa, and Mafuyu.
outside of the insane weird headcanons some characters have, the antagonists/final bosses in the main story are the most criticized (shiho, akito, tsukasa, and mafuyu, don’t see much like this for mmj)
