Why was this post tagged melanism? Notwithstanding the fact that this condition apparently doesn't even affect humans, nothing here is visibly distinct from what we ordinarily tag as dark_skin. We don't need two different tags for the same thing.

The original artist has already stated that Mitsuki and Natalia have opposing conditions. As, Natalia has albinism and Mitsuki would have the oposite, therefore, melanism. its an excess of dark pigmentation, maybe very dark skin or simply dark skin would be better used, but i simply wanted to add its term as the creator intended her condition to be.
and yet, nobody bats an eye with albino + pale skin? alright.
Because albinism is not just pale skin, it's pale skin, and blonde-white hair including the eyelashes and eyebrows which makes it visually distinct and therefore a good enough criteria to be a tag.
Hilarious in Hindsight: In the 2.2 Penacony main mission, Dan Heng uses the ("once-in-a-lifetime") Jade Abacus of Allying Oath in the dream to summon help for his companions against Sunday. He proposes to repeat this act in reality, but Boothill talks him out of it. Thus, dorkdragoon redrew the scene from their pre-2.2 animation with the characters swapped.
The animation is clearly referencing something that Snoop Dogg did as a promo for CoD, but I have no idea what it was or which specific game it was for. A little help?
