Pointless Pools

pool #21434

I found few pools like this, only have two post which the post already few months ago and artist seems to not post anymore related works. Isn't something like this can just make into parents and child instead of Pool? I'm still kinda new so I'm not sure.

While a pool may be a bit overkill for 2 images, the usefulness of parenting often tops out after like 3-4 images, and pools are the next best thing.

pool #834 (Awesome Mecha)

Sorry to interrupt, while I think the presence of mecha focus tag can render this pool obsolete.

There's already vehicle focus for that.

Awesome Mecha falls into the same trap that subjective pools like Stoic Beauty, Series Beauty, or any of the Beautiful_* pools - it's intended use is for the best of the best from mecha/mecha focus with a dash of fighter jets and starfighters, but of course everyone has different opinions and standards for what would constitute "Awesome" for the pool. It is worth noting that the pool has 2968 posts compared to the 38040 of the main mecha tag (not comparing with mecha focus since that's a relatively new tag that isn't fully populated), so there is a degree of curation going into it.

Thank you!
I missed that they were actual characters, I thought they were original.

https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/34358636 is tagged with 百合, so unless it is a genderswap or headcanon, Kirim is a girl

Kirim is definitely a girl, though it's not obvious until about 34 minutes into Episode 2 (heavy spoiler warning for that scene). Before that scene, she looked like a very young boy with short hair and looked identical to her twin brother Irim, but when she aged up to match her appearance in the posts, she had visible breasts. I changed the tags accordingly.

Looks like a personal favorites pool. You could make a pool like this for basically anything, and we don't need a million "cute [blank]" pools. If it's cute enough, just put it in Disgustingly Adorable or something.

+1. Highly subjective and serves no purpose. I will let mods and admins decide if the pool should be deleted immediately.
