@HurricaneZeta: Thought I would ping you here for your opinion on ALT2, given your response to my DYK nom of Arlecchino (Genshin Impact). I see these hooks as somewhat similar given their (as you put it) "genre-bending construction". Gommeh 📖 🎮 00:48, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- I think ALT1 is the most interesting here, ALT0 and ALT3 are pretty niche. ALT2 is fine per se, but it could be shortened (for example, cutting the oni part and "the game". In terms of broadness, ALT1 would be the best pick. I would promote ALT1 if I had to here. Z E T AC 15:57, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- I've shortened ALT2 as you suggested. Gommeh 📖 🎮 16:17, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- @Buidhe: thoughts? Gommeh 📖 🎮 16:19, 24 November 2025 (UTC)
- Not really sure how I could, as I think it's plenty interesting as is. Gommeh 📖 🎮 15:29, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
- ALT2 depends on knowing what kabuki theatre is and the others are dull. I'm surprised you've not tried on a hook about ice cream.--Launchballer 15:40, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
- Added as ALT4. I didn't think that was interesting enough at first but have changed my mind. Gommeh 📖 🎮 16:08, 2 December 2025 (UTC)
- I was thinking more along the lines of ALT5: ... that several Genshin Impact players photoshopped Arataki Itto's weapon into ice cream? or ALT6: ... that the Genshin Impact character Arataki Itto fights with what looks like a chocolate-covered ice cream bar?--Launchballer 17:14, 2 December 2025 (UTC)

I must ask for another reviewer for ALT5.--Launchballer 11:15, 3 December 2025 (UTC)
