Welp after a request, some searching and providing a collection of what I can find online earlier this month and no one providing any of the missing cards afterwards I decided to subscribe to Henime's fanbox in the last week of January so I could have access to their card collection. What I was greeted with were 2 posts with 2 mega links each, one which was supposed to have a video collection for January and cards that had been used in their content that month (Tier 3 2,200JPY) and an older December post (Tier 1 4,000JPY) which was supposed to contain all their videos ever made and another link to their cards which by their Tier 1 benefits description. Is supposed to contain
ALL their character cards, of those 4 links only 1 worked which was the Tier 1 video link. Under those 2 posts and 1 Happy New years posts were comments from all month long from supporters asking for working mega links for Henimes' posts, with zero response from Henime for any of those comments. So I reached out through Fanbox DM's giving them an honestly very polite message and more generous then they deserved benefit of the doubt mixed in with guilt tripping to hopefully provoke them into providing the benefits which from appearances, were actively being defrauded from their supporters.
To a disappointingly predictable response of pure silence, but at this point it was the 28th the other supporters were not happy and started threatening Henime that if the rewards which weren't provided weren't made available before the End of the Month, that they would be reporting Henime under fraud to pixiv/fanbox. It seems the threats made Henime finally distribute working mega links to to their cards and videos under the January post, makes sense since they were actively breaking site TOS. But oh wait the link is missing half of their character cards, missing scene data (which to be honest I personally really didn't care about since all of their work are just unedited Hongcha scenes anyway), no "gifts", and no instructions about the so called commission benefit. But wait it gets worse, the January post which was originally a Tier 3 post got changed to a tier 1 post, meaning if you paid 2,200 jpy to Henime for the month of January, they actively scammed and defrauded those supporters. Not to mention Tier 1 supporters were still defrauded as well considering even after the threats to report fraud Henime still only provided access to half their character collection, no scene data, details on commission, or "gifts".
They also deleted some of the previous comments asking for working links and threating fraud reports, I assume to make the comment section clean for the next month of people that support so they are none the wiser. One user detailed under the now Tier 1 January post after the comment deletion exactly all of the missing characters, seeing that I then tried to post my own comment as well to question Henime if they new they could still be reported for fraud since they still weren't providing access to the full benefits promised in their tier descriptions. Only to see a big red error message at the top of the screen, never had that happen before so I tried again, same error, went to like the post, that worked, then I scrolled to the top and noticed I now have unfollowed Henime. I didn't do that I thought so I tried following and the same red error popped up, oh you're fucking kidding I thought, I then went to the fanbox messages and Henime was now gone from my messages. That's right they blocked me, I hadn't even threatened to report for fraud like other users had, I had just left a polite message asking for working links to be distributed, they fucking blocked me and I can only assume all the other users for asking for the benefits they should be providing.
So I did my due diligence and left a fraud report through fanbox that is way more detailed, longer and more proffesionally written then this so hopefully it's taken seriously. If you ever wondered why Henime's old patreon is missing and their pixiv and twitter comments are turned off, now you can probably guess why, I'll be leaving an image gallery link below this paragraph with screenshots of everything to solidify everything I said so if a Henime account appears here saying I'm lying you know their full of shit (doubt that will happen though since by their silence they seem like a coward).

I specifically want to edit Paintitblack cards, I like tattoos but man do they over do it with the blacked and queen of spades stuff to the point where I find it more unattractive than hot in a slutty way. I tried figuring it out in the Koikatsu character editing but I couldn't find any way to edit the base skin.
