Nice, a ranfren thread! Got into this series a few months ago and it's an absolute trove of fetish fuel. A real dream come true for horrorkink connoisseurs.
Requesting ageswapRandal/Satoru, LutherSebastian, hard sub Nyen, and any 17 Randals you've got.
Favorite Lucids? Ships? AUs?
>>3872035I believe it blew up post-Satoru introduction as it leaned heavier into the comic's anime inspo, SatoRan being a more stereotypical and easily consumed kind of pseudocanon BL ship (even though the catmen are in an explicit M/s relationship with Luther, but aren't drawn as 'cute'), and the heavy sh themes of his character which is a much more common kink in East Asia. Though Howdie writes already in such strange syntax for native English speakers to understand, that it feels like it would be even less accessible to ESLs, and a lot of the style and cultural references are likely lost in translation. But if by 'suddenly' you really mean within the past half year or so, then I really have no idea because it does really seem to have come out of the blue. I only became aware of it recently myself from JP fanart.
