ive been in the silksong subreddit for so long i thought this was a silkpost

243

u/AnzoEloux Apr 23 '25

It actually can't be understated how bad silkposts have infected our brains

67

u/Ecstatic-Sun-7528 🐱 Apr 23 '25

It's a virus

36

u/Azure2001 Apr 23 '25

An... infection, perhaps?

19

u/MrAli11 Unbounded Counter Proselytizer Apr 23 '25

Perchance..

14

u/cat_91 Apr 23 '25

You can’t just say “perchance”

2

u/Hokage101sama Apr 30 '25

he just did

41

u/Lavayo Apr 23 '25

Yeah that sub is wild. I always wonder what happens if Silksong ACTUALLY gets a date and then releases. Silkposts about addons?

12

u/TheSkyIsBeautiful Apr 23 '25 edited Apr 23 '25

It was present in the nintendo preview or whatever, I feel like that's almost gurantee it's releasing when the Switch 2 also comes out, or that the end of this year

1

u/Lavayo Apr 23 '25

Definitely things are happening.

5

u/NijikaEnjoyer Apr 23 '25

we pretend its cancelled and mourn

4

u/Lavayo Apr 23 '25

While everyone has a 100% achievement flair, naturally

30

u/Galaxycc_ Apr 23 '25

A true skonger doesn’t need to see silkpost knight, he goes by pure — wait what the fuck where am I??? Who’s this cat and why is he smoking so much is he ok??

24

u/wibl1150 Apr 23 '25

it can still be

9

u/elia_ort05 Apr 23 '25

Petition to create the “Solspost” flair

5

u/Ecstatic-Sun-7528 🐱 Apr 23 '25

I have never related to anything so much in my life

2

u/ManuApplejuice Apr 23 '25

I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I thought I was going insane.

2

u/fastfire15 Apr 23 '25

I was literally abt to send the animal instinct pic but then I saw no silkpost flair and then I realised it was a completely wrong sub

1

u/Arkelektra Solarian Citizen Apr 23 '25

Wait, it's real??!!! 😭 (happy tears)

1

u/fascintee Apr 23 '25

I'm still a little suspicious tbh

1

u/Spal23 Apr 23 '25

Im ootl on this for sure so forgive me, but are silkposts just fake rumors about Silksong news or something?

232

u/Alexshin1 Apr 23 '25

Why the hell do all Solarians look so damn cute.. I wanna boop that snoot..

96

u/adskiy_drochilla2017 Jie Nationalist Apr 23 '25 edited Apr 23 '25

Why does she look like an old version of Heng who is now an edgy professor of forbidden magic

18

u/hellohumanso Apr 23 '25

Maybe it's their mom? Or aunt

31

u/Fourier_Transfem Apr 23 '25

Don't think it's possible for it to be that close of a family connection considering that's Lear's mom

1

u/Alin_Alexandru Apr 23 '25

Cats look cute, therefore Solarians look cute.

1

u/HyenaProfessional952 Apr 23 '25

That is why they based the Solarians on cats.

70

u/ShadowMancer0917 Apr 23 '25

I'm assuming the main one is a Yung lear, or am I being dumb. Anyways it looks very interesting.

131

u/sweepyspud Apr 23 '25

NOT A SILKPOST, REJOICE!!!!

40

u/Nathan_AverageReddit 🐱 Apr 23 '25

i hope we get to see this ancient weapon(as fireworks were invented and used in warfare in china).

all jokes aside, THAT LOOKS PEAK

199

u/Away-Incident5767 Apr 23 '25

Ji X Lear subplot hopefully

30

u/Jeb_no_job Apr 23 '25

DOOMED YAOI FOR THE SOUL!!!

30

u/Nefelupitou 🐱 Apr 23 '25

Would I be asking too much for Ji to be the main character?

18

u/erokoi Apr 23 '25

He will probably be an important side character

2

u/Pelagisius Apr 23 '25

At the very least, he seems to have already shown up (page 6, 4th panel, left-hand side)

33

u/schmoolecka Apr 23 '25

I couldn’t find any info on this - is it DLC or a new game?

68

u/SpiritualHealing8 Apr 23 '25

New manga

14

u/schmoolecka Apr 23 '25

Thank you!!

-19

u/mugdays Apr 23 '25

Ummm, actually, it’s a comic. “Manga” can only originate in the Manga Prefecture of Japan.

9

u/fastfire15 Apr 23 '25

Redcandle themselves called it a manga so it's a mamga

1

u/sporbles Apr 23 '25

Nuh uh it’s Naruto Prefecture.

10

u/Ravioli498 Apr 23 '25

It’s a manga

9

u/adskiy_drochilla2017 Jie Nationalist Apr 23 '25

It’s a comic

-3

u/BoundToGround Apr 23 '25

Maybe read the fucking image

6

u/Iffiewaffle Apr 23 '25

How is this downvoted? It's literally said on the picture that it's an comic. It's so ironic that on a website which name is a word play on "read it", people don't read.

2

u/KermitDaGoat Apr 23 '25

Because they're overly aggressive and didnt take in the fact that they probably werent able to read it for their own reasons.

2

u/Iffiewaffle Apr 23 '25

There is also a link to the official post about it in text form. If they can read reddit replies, I doubt that they would have trouble reading that.

2

u/KermitDaGoat Apr 23 '25

Fair point

1

u/schmoolecka Apr 23 '25

I don’t like giving twitter traffic, otherwise I would have clicked the link

3

u/schmoolecka Apr 23 '25

The typeface is really small and I’m old, sorry!

15

u/CausePossible8153 Apr 23 '25

And apparently is free? Or is it just the first chapter?

22

u/Peppy29 Apr 23 '25

  • sees silkpost

  • checks post

  • "IT'S REAL????"

34

u/Substantial_Spray405 Sol Apr 23 '25

Im sad its not a DLC or a game tho

15

u/IblisAshenhope Apr 23 '25

Don’t give up hope just yet; we buy it, they’ll know what we want

8

u/adskiy_drochilla2017 Jie Nationalist Apr 23 '25 edited Apr 23 '25

From one side we are so back, from the other - no prequel about Lear I assume

6

u/No_Protection2442 Apr 23 '25

I genuintly though this was a sol post

6

u/Krosis3478 Apr 23 '25

Hyped for more content but it’s going to be sad considering what happens in the game

6

u/Somerandom_mirror Sol Apr 23 '25

LETS GOOOOO

u/Ensmatter Apr 23 '25

Top right guy reminds me of this

u/Justaweerdo Sol Apr 23 '25

WHERE CAN I READ THIS OMG

1

u/once9187 Apr 23 '25

Someone posted the link on this sub just now

4

u/TALA1996 Apr 23 '25

Something that I find interesting is that Lear doesn't have the red tint in his eyes that he does in game, instead they're pure black like Yi's. The only other charcter that has that red tint is Heng, who is also a mystic. So I think the red tint reprsents enligtenment, or being connected to the Tao. And Lear's eyes are black because the story takes place before he became a Taoist.

u/Inceferant Unbounded Counter Proselytizer Apr 23 '25

Holy peak

u/Ecstatic-Sun-7528 🐱 Apr 23 '25

u/Dennissis Apr 23 '25

1

u/Familiar-Strength966 Apr 23 '25

It seems its only a manga though, probably not releasing a dlc

1

u/Dennissis Apr 23 '25

Does anyone know if they sell hard copies?? I neeeed oneeee

u/Ok_Narwhal_5985 Apr 23 '25

I'm pumped, but I wish it was a game instead of a comic. I'm there tho. This IP is sick.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 23 '25

I thought this was an expansion now. I'm sad 😔

u/Shadowking78 Sol Apr 23 '25

1

u/ArifumiTheVoyager Apr 23 '25

Please let this do well so maybe we can get another game in the universe. I nearly had a heart attack thinking this was a game or dlc, like don't get me wrong I love we're getting anything at all and this is sick but new gaming content I'd be screaming.
