Happy 6th Anniversary of Voltage incs Koi 100!
So this years anniversary costumes seem to be tone in tone or monochromatic :D I reall like Kagas outfit this time. However the turqouise of Tsugaru and the pink of Shinonome is like bubblegum colors and work nice with each other. I kind of want to bleach Gotos shirt under his suit hahhaa
Also Tsugaru must have been freezing. Why does he need a turtleneck beneath his shirt? xD

A summary to the family relationships in Voltage Inc stories
I once posted about how the MCs from Voltage Inc are mostly mentally healthy girls from complete families, with both parents being more than adequate and usually with siblings. The statistics for the games I am writing for are like this:
Her Love in the Force: Two alive parents that are good at parenting and an alive sibling good at "siblinging"
Irresistible Mistakes: Two alive parents that are good at parenting and an alive sibling that briefly mentioned
Oops! I Said Yes?!: Two alive parents that are adequate at parenting
Plust: Love U So True: Two alive parents that seem to be good at parenting
Romance MD: Always on Call: ... She is the one whose family status can be compared to the LIs
Tokyo Love Hustle: I don't remember, but I'm not sure both her parents are alive
So, out of 7 MCs, only one and a half (if anyone remembers TLH's MC's backstory, tell me what's up with her) have a tragic backstory regarding their families, which makes up around 80% of MCs with no family trauma. If we take more MCs, then it probably is 85%. Now, let's see how we are with the boys. (I don't remember or know all their stories, so correct me if I wrote something wrong).
Alive parents with alive siblings (if they have any): Seiji Goto, Toshiaki Kijima, Toma Kiriya, Natsume Asaoka, Kuranosuke Kiba, Shu Hasunuma, Munechika Takado
Alive parents with dead siblings: Shusuke Soma
Alive parents with dead siblings and questionable love for them: Eiji Takao, Tetsuya Hosho, Sentaro Kyogoku
Alive parents with questionable love for their children: Yukihisa Maki, Shunichiro Tachibana, Ukyo Senkawa, Kunihiro Kasai, Sui Claude Saigu, Mikoto Amamitsu, Kaede Ekuni
Another fatherless child with his dad away: Hyogo Kaga (he can fall in the previous category too), Taku Hayama
Adopted orphan: Ayumu Shinonome, Rei Kamiki, Keita Mitsuura, Go Okubo, Daimon Togo, Toshiki Kasumi, Suzumu Mado
Adopted orphan with dead siblings: Takaomi Tsugaru
Adopted orphan with dead siblings and questionable relationship with the parents whose at least one adopted parent died: Hideki Ishigami
Not adopted orphan: Jun Araki, Taro Akuchi
Characters about whom I don't remember/know anything (please, tell me in the comments what's up with them): Jin Namba, Toru Kurosawa, Eiichi Matsunaga
Status unknown (please, tell me if you know anything): Ryoga Buto
So, here we have 35 characters. The ones about whom I don't know anything don't fall into the first category, from what I remember. And even if we put the last one in the first category, we still have a rate of 23% with no family trauma. By games, it looks like this:
Her Love in the Force: No trauma = 12,5% (1/8)
Irresistible Mistakes: No trauma = 30% (3/10)
Oops! I Said Yes?!: No trauma = 33,3% (2/6)
Plust: Loving U So True: No trauma = 66,6% (2/3)
Romance MD: Always on Call: No trauma = 16,6% (1/6)
Tokyo Love Hustle: No trauma = 0% (0/2)
Besides the fact that we don't have information about Ryoga yet, these are still not accurate because Kuranosuke theoretically falls into the "No family trauma" category, even if this man has trauma regarding his family and his entire personality can be explained by his family's behavior towards him.Ā
Even the story with the "happiest" families (Plust with 66,6%) isn't close to MCs' 80%.Ā
I want MCs with traumas who went through something and overcame it. And if Voltage Inc likes to make it hard from the beginning, using their families, then there it be. I don't want men characters who went through hell and back to come to MC so that she could fix them. I want MC to have her struggles that don't involve her man. Women's lives don't revolve around their men. They can have struggles outside their relationship.Ā
Don't get me wrong, I understand that it is important to support your partner and everything. I like how the LIs have character development. But if you look at these games, MCs' lives seem so good and careless before meeting their SO. Their problems begin after men appear in their lives. They go through problems that aren't as serious as their partners, while the men save the day and are named heroes.Ā
The family thing is only ONE aspect of the traumas that Voltage gives to MEN in their stories. There are so many struggles that a woman can go through: toxic exes, physically present but morally absent parents (especially fathers), high expectations, double standards, and sexual harassment.Ā
I have had a pretty normal life compared to Voltage Inc men's. But I still can't identify myself with the MCs in here. I'm only 21, and I have seen more sh*t than the MC from "Her Love in the Force" when she entered the Academy. It makes me uncomfortable when I play for a plant from a greenhouse whose strongest personality trait at 23+ is naivety.Ā
I want to live in a world with parents that love me nonetheless, there's no depression, sexual harassment, toxic relationships, messy breakups, divorces, bad relationships with siblings, mental illnesses, double standards, or high expectations. But it's not possible right now, and I want to see problems depicted in fiction to know that I am not alone.Ā
I want to see a LI who goes out of his way to help MC with her problems, at least sometimes. I don't live on this earth to save men from themselves. I also want to have support to overcome my problems.Ā
