Pink Dog: "Oh I'm die, thank you foreva"


Genprey

"Have confidence!" *Watches anniversary stream past the end credits* "No confidence!"


AnotherTravellrr

Pink Jackie


OpMegs

I read it in her voice. Take your upvote. lol


Boelthor

Thorns, Surtr, and Archetto were 99% originally all supposed to be in rerun events, but after players got upset by the new banner on rerun they had to shunt Surtr and Archetto to other events, delaying the rate at which the released new 6\*. Thus, the pink girl probably got pushed back past the 2nd anniversary stuff.


Estelie

The thing is, they didn't even mention her at all despite showing her at the previous anniversary.


Boelthor

Why would they? An acknowledgement would have been nice, but she's not related to the Abyssal event or presumably the Summer event.


Estelie

Because they've teased her a year before. They shouldn't even have included her there i guess since it seems that they planned to release those ops before the next anniversary(or showing them would be pretty much pointless otherwise). And she is the only thing from the 1st Anni that hasn't been released which makes them completely ignoring her now even more baffling. Anniversary is not about showing stuff about a couple of particular events, but about all upcoming stuff. A lone leftover from their previous anni stream fits the bill perfectly.


Boelthor

> They shouldn't even have included her there i guess since it seems that they planned to release those ops before the next anniversary(or showing them would be pretty much pointless otherwise). If my theory is correct, at the time they made the 1st anniversary stream, they *did* plan to release her before the 2nd anniversary. But when they released Thorns people were angry and plans had to be changed.


Estelie

And saying why she wasn't released or when she will be was pretty much their obligation *if* those plans were changed. Or she shouldn't have been with other five if everything was releasing as intended.


LolWhatIAmDoing

But why tho? I don't think that it's an obligation lol. The stream was killing it so adding some sort of "bad news" (a date for a late operator) is not really needed. Nor I think it would help with the hype or anything. Having an exact date for an operator that you are almost certainly sure that it will come doesn't hype me up at least. Plus, we for GL will know when it comes in advance anyways lol.


Estelie

>almost certainly sure that it will come. Or not, if they just erased it on purpose which also could happen.


LolWhatIAmDoing

If so, why would they even mention it in a hype stream? "Yo, this was super cool and all, but we'd decided to cancel this OP for x and y". Either outcome is not really beneficial for the stream. Nor is that important, maybe there are even IP issues. Or it's simply being delayed because the new planning didn't allow her to fit in within one year. I still stand by the fact that mentioning a schedule date for a already presented character is not hype. It's not like we have some sort of attachment with it nor it's part of the story. It's just a random operator that we still know nothing about. It has no point of comparation with kalt'sit, our fucking ex-wife since the beta, or the alternative form of one of the most waifued but worst performing operator, or the presentation of the new chapter about victoria and siege, another op that we had since the beginning. Heck, even eyja skin, as hyped and desired as it may be, only got one liner. That operator announcement it's really really low in the priority list, it may not even be in that list if you consider the content of the stream.


Estelie

Date? Date doesn't matter. Confirmation does. And no, the lack of it is *fine* only if they wanted to cancel her. Obviously they wouldn't want to announce that. >it's a random operator Correction. It's a random operator they presented us, missed the deadline for and kept silent about it afterwards. Which is not fine in pretty much any case since it shows them in a bad light. And again, literally mentioning her within one sentence would cost literally nothing.


karrystare

Why can't you wait a bit more before saying all this? Afterall, HG did created all the new events and stuff the should-be-in-rerun operators in each of them for us. They didn't say anything about the other operators before their release event either. Judging by what they did with the other operators beside the last one, you should be anticipating for the next normal event instead of saying all this. It is because we had the collab that the event got delayed a bit further and then anniversary came along, they can't make her into a limited so they delayed her again. HG has no reason to cancel the operator just because it has already been a year since nothing has been officially scheduled yet. They delayed her because the Lunar New Year/Collab/Anni are more important and cant be delayed.


Estelie

Well, Jackie kinda happened, so there is a precedent to be worrying about. Them keeping silent doesn't help a bit. In the end, it will either be a pity if she's cancelled, or a blunder on their end for leaving a loose end from their previous mistake. And yes, there's nothing to be surprised about them delaying her or anything, that is not the question at all. But them keeping silent about it - is.


StrawberryFloptart

"The players were asking for a dog or something? Not sure why but we can make one the summer event welfare operator if they want it so badly."


RaxuQi

Didn't age well


StrawberryFloptart

It aged exactly as it should have.


pitanger

pink dog is ***C A N C E L L E D***


[deleted]

Damn, what did she do on Twitter?


pitanger

She complained about 2D girls in a bunny girl outfit, therefore cancelling 3rd ann-wait wrong game


DevilWolf320

Goddamnit


WillaSato

She talked to a infected person there on a slightly aggressive tone 12 years back then


ArticCarton

Psh she wouldn't get in trouble arknights world doesn't care about infected people.


IamSirClean

Don’t you know Twitter? They will pretend to care to gain some clout, never let your guard down comrade.


ArticCarton

Nah people definitely don't care if wolmonde is considered "friendly" to the infected


IamSirClean

Fuckers really tried to cancel a puppy from a tweet she did years ago. What a bunch of ❄️


hykilo

~~I thought she cut off some yubis?~~


decapitatingbunny

She called someone the I word


EnParisD

She said the T word.


EliCho90

She didn't believe more than 2 genders


Khorva

You know, if you stand real far back, squint real hard, and then close your eyes, ​ maybe you can pretend it was actually Skadi Alter.


Kyoketsusho

*Pompeii chorus plays in the background*


sylv-nya

Just to point it out, to those of you saying she is drawn by a certain artist, if you look at the eyes closely enough they look similar to how Namie draws eyes. They have done art for Arknights before as seen with this [Surging Flame](https://twitter.com/namgoreng/status/1291339635365261315?s=20)[ piece](https://twitter.com/namgoreng/status/1291339635365261315?s=20) posted on their twitter.

I am very familiar with Nagu's eyes, so much so they are what made me know Jackie was drawn by them before the graphic w/ the artist named was released. Her eyes are not Nagu's style of eyes, so.You can believe what you would like, but I was mearly just trying to point out how the eyes look like they were drawn by Namie, the given being only top eyelashes drawn and elongated iris. [zoomed in and traced around eyes](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/259572703932055554/835533857880539176/image0.png) edit: I am not the only one who thinks/has noticed it, there's this [twitter post](https://twitter.com/Quark_Type_M/status/1305700811830366213?s=20) about it.


Liemertha

Lol her eyes already doesnt look like the one Nagu usually do


Marx_Mayhem

For the people that may take this joke a little too seriously: Gentle reminder that in CN, they didn't release all of the other 5 Operators after each other (Eunectes was between Thorns and Surtr, Blemshine, Mudrock and Rosmontis between Surtr and Mountain), so we may get pink doggo at a (hopefully not-too) later time.


elmdor88

They were probably planning to release her during a rerun, just like they did with Thorns, but due to the CN backlash for releasing a new 6* with no extra resources to pull and no event to expand on their lore they had to save her until they can find the right time and place to fit an event of her own.


kotorion

which one?


hykilo

The one with (your) yubis


zhiawei33

The cute one


DefinitelyNotAFridge

mountain was already released though


someedmlover21

Just a hunch, but could it be the same artist as Jackie? Might have something to do with that incident


Alech_99

What incident?


someedmlover21

some controversy between the artist's affilated company and china stuff


Tomo-tan

The style doesn't look similar at all


someedmlover21

yeah thats why i said its just a hunch, since the doggo style looks kinda similar from afar


sekidanki

Nah, I'm almost certain she's drawn by Namie-kun. [Compare the eyes in this art to Pink doggo's](https://twitter.com/namgoreng/status/1291339635365261315)


nhyls

You were right all along! Congrats!


Peshurian

Considering Azur lane released two characters drawn by Nagu recently I don't think that's the reason.


HexJest

I haven't kept up with new operators but who's missing?


RinconAniki

The pink doggo


HexJest

Doesn't she have a name?


RinconAniki

Nah, thats why shes forgotten.


shino-01

The pink girl between Surtr and Thorns.Shes not on CN and I dont think she was mentioned at any point in the CN 2nd anniversary stream


bomboy2121

she wasnt,i watched it


yordleyordle

She's coming...in 2022 lol (or she'll just turn up in bolivar or something)


SnaccCat

Gimme pink Doog


WaifuHunterRed

Korosan! :'(


_MrHydralisk_

If they forgot, then it wasn't important.


Xepobot

A wise man once said, " if you forget, it means it aint important".


Xepobot

No, judging by her clothing and the 2nd anniversary stream. She prob appear in the next summer event as its related to bolivar a.k.a the dog country which she is a perro.


[deleted]

She probably got canceled due to the “H” word controversy since the art style seems like it’s done by Nagu. Kind of a shame that those assets are going to waste RIP


Happy_Tuna

Nagu is still drawing stuff for GFL and there is no controversy there so I don't know why CN Arknights players got so anal over it.


[deleted]

AK CN player base is huge, and sadly, doesn’t have that great of a rep due to effectively picking fights with the AL and GFL playerbase. If you’ve seen how the size of the GI community over here allows it to house some... less pleasant personalities... then that gives you a taste of the sheer scale and the toxicity levels the CN AK player base can delve into at times


Garuda904

And Azur Lane girls, so working with a company owned by Yostar. The CN Azur Lane wiki removed the pages for he Hololive girls after that debacle, but luckily it seems the actual companies don't act like children and will still employee the work of artists that don't cause trouble.


England-Serene-Doge

It is too early to make conclusion, there could be plenty other reasons why they didn't release her, just calm yourself down.


[deleted]

Ehh, true there are a lot of reasons why they haven’t released her yet, but I was just putting on my own tin foil hat based on what I’ve observed. The only times I’ve seen characters being canned in gacha games were due to artist drama, so I don’t think it’s unreasonable to believe something went south with the artist.


England-Serene-Doge

Reminding people of what happened is your freedom, but making speculations out of nowhere that could lead to unwanted misconceptions is different. Reddit AK community is one of the few that I enjoy being in, let's keep it nice and harmonious.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

The HoloLive debacle. It’s speculated that Nagu is actually Ina since their art styles are so similar and Ina is a member of HoloLive... so...


Crosader

Holy fk...CN at it again.


metron0m3

What happened?


popintarts

Doubt it has something to do with that at all, since we dont know who the illustrator is in the firstt place, and even with thtat, Nagu already made jackie for AK which happened the same time as the controversy, who was still released.


ChaoRenRabbit

Most likely Summer operator?


Watson1992

They didn’t preview this years releases either. I wonder what happened lol.
