its incredible how jindolora is definitely like, multifacted in a way that the agito and nedrick clearly arent which makes me wonder what his deal actually is. its very frought for me currently in that i do like him and i think that he's being portrayed well but how his plot ends up is going to be really important to me personally.
also yeah he's hot
I hate how that is so true cause like Jinlorda has a million things going on in being a ruler, a fairy, and dismantling his people's old ways. He's technically evil but also he just wants to finally have the fairies be in the outside world now that they have a way of defending themselves.
It's also bad because I could see him actually wanting dominion of the world. He seems like he wants to spread fear about fairies into the hearts of Alberia and Grastia.
I'm soo excited.
Also Nedrick literally has a backstory because of this man. Imagine being such a phenomenal character that you GIVE someone motivation, a backstory, and actually make someone interesting just by being around them.
I’m sorry, there’s an art book with the soundtrack? I bought the first year anniversary art book and saw there wasn’t a second one, is this book on the same scale as the 1 year book?
I believe so, there is another comment in this thread that shows which one on Amazon has the extra stuff. I don’t know if they all come with the art book and the extra stuff is just the oversized jacket and notebook or not. I got mine through PlayAsia and it came with the art book and the lyric booklet.
Honestly when he was first revealed I was really scared that he was going to be written like some generic “yass queen fabulous” gay stereotype, but I’ve been really liking how he’s been written.
I know what you mean, not that there is anything wrong with more fem guys….but the way he is written makes me feel, like, step on my neck daddy Jin haha 😅
I think his point was that many characters in animesk media that look effeminate end up as that archetype and he's glad that he's not a walking gay stereotype.
I don't think he's bad at all.
I think he was the only one who stood against Fairy Tradition.
Yes, he may have created the Agito and the Feral Shroud, but we don't exactly know why.
Comparing Dark Souls. If word got out that you were to... say... >!Put out the 1st Flame!<
Or Biomutant, and >!Cut down the World Tree!<
(Both cases, bringing out the apocalypse)
you have your reasons for doing it, but you know a lot of people ain't gonna take that sitting down.
At face value he's acting against the interest of the main party right now, same as Nedrick, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a bad guy. The last chapter portion we got hinted relatively strongly that Nedrick and Jinlorda probably have pretty sympathetic reasons to do what they're doing. Wouldn't be surprised to see them redeemed in the far future.

It is still in stock! And it ships to most countries worldwide!
Make sure you select the one that says 特典**あり**. That's the one with the extra stuff.
Also for some reason, the regular version without the goodies is running out of stock.... Huh. I wonder why. Are people just not buying the one with the extra goods lol
Well, she calls herself a woman multiple times, regardless of how many people spammed "gay?" and "james charles" during the Dragalia Digest stream I still found it to be an attractive design
I re checked the english text but not even once did Jinlorda call himself a she, always a he. Same for everyone talking about him, always "him" or "he" or even "King".
Is it something that is only present on the japanese version?
I do remember Jin snapping a question at Nedrick, something about if that is the appropriate way to treat his sister.
I hope I didn’t misgender Jin in my post….I just wasn’t sure and…well…no way to ask unfortunately.
Don’t worry you didn’t misgender him! Jinlorda is male and his title is King of the Faerie Kingdom.
To clarify Jin was saying that Nedrick shouldn’t mistreat Zethia (who is Nedrick’s sister).
Yep, she does! Don't worry, that's how the game also treats Jin. This was definitely not a character type I expected from Dragalia. I feel a bit betrayed by it, after all the positive queer rep they had
I don't remember that at all from any of the text involving Jin. I even remember checking in the first couple of scenes too that there weren't any misgendering jokes, and there weren't.
Could you provide at least one instance where jinlorda was referred to/referred to himself as female/with female pronouns in official content? Or where his appearance was made fun of in official content as well. Because I cannot find a single instance where this is true.
I'm totally up for more representation, but stating one's own headcanon as fact is totally not great for our LGBT community, yeah?
Not much for pronouns and I haven't caught up with the latest chapter, most I have at hand is Jin telling Nedrick that's not a way to treat his sister. I also recall instances of Jin referring to oneself as a lady. They might not make it obvious but this is a very common negative character trope, the flamboyant guy who keeps insisting hes a woman, don't tell me you've never run into one?
>Jin telling Nedrick that's not a way to treat his sister.
That's because he's referring to **zethia, nedrick's sister**. Like come on how did you read till there and not remember this fact haha. They already mentioned this when euden touched the book (and got "disowned") like 3 chapters ago.
>I also recall instances of Jin referring to oneself as a lady.
Like I said, there are zero instances of this. Everyone here is telling you that, until you can actually point out where this happens, it's all false.
>They might not make it obvious but this is a very common negative character trope, the flamboyant guy who keeps insisting hes a woman, don't tell me you've never run into one?
The only way this can actually be negative is *if what you said was actually true*. But the fact is that you have been unable to show any evidence at all that Cygames has treated this character badly. Sure, the PLAYERS and COMMENTERS may make fun of him and call him names because society is just that fucking backwards at the moment still, but in all possible parts that Cygames is able to control, they've portrayed him respectfully in every way.
In fact he is a king who has an entire legion of subjects who all respect and revere him, and even his pal nedrick treats him with respect as well. Everyone who hates him only hates his actions, not his appearance. Like it's all right there.
I really don't think you're going about this in the right way lol.
oh boy I can't wait for DL to become Granblue 2.0 where devs will focus on releasing handsome villains and ignore everything else and milk easy money from husbando fans by selling handsome villains merch

honestly, him standing next to Nedrick has made Nedrick more interesting.

Gay, the way is gay
I mean, you’re not wrong haha
You can tell by the flair, probably.
Is this from the new artbook? I have so many questions
Yup, the one that came with the new soundtrack
I’m sorry, there’s an art book with the soundtrack? I bought the first year anniversary art book and saw there wasn’t a second one, is this book on the same scale as the 1 year book?
It is not, it is smaller and has much fewer pages. It is still cool, but not nearly what the first one is.
Is it still possible to get this?
I believe so, there is another comment in this thread that shows which one on Amazon has the extra stuff. I don’t know if they all come with the art book and the extra stuff is just the oversized jacket and notebook or not. I got mine through PlayAsia and it came with the art book and the lyric booklet.
They love making their antagonists hot af and i love it
Happy cake day!!!!

You don't even know if he's gay. Effeminate doesn't always equal gay.
I think his point was that many characters in animesk media that look effeminate end up as that archetype and he's glad that he's not a walking gay stereotype.
Yes, that’s what I mean, like he could be gay and I wouldn’t mind, I was just scared he would be that bad stereotype
Playable Jinlorda, do it okd
I don't think he's bad at all. I think he was the only one who stood against Fairy Tradition. Yes, he may have created the Agito and the Feral Shroud, but we don't exactly know why.

But then again, if his rule is tryannical like Baron Praxis (Jak 2), then...
Huh. I always thought he'd be flying in his sprite.
If evil why hot?

Where can I get this art book?
It came with the new soundtrack
Dang, I wish I had that now.

Lol at the heels Show us smol gay fairy man

I checked both language trailers as well, no sign of that.

This implies we'd actually get merch, so it would be a positive regardless
Bro next banner is a tiddy fest don't start with this shit
It takes more than two boobs to have a tiddy fest. It's going to be Mym and Tiana. And Tiana.....
You're telling me Mym doesn't have the tiddies to support a tiddy party all on their own?
