You almost made it all the way through without posting any of the gross R34 "redraw every character as a disgusting fatass" garbage. I admire your restraint.
For a while, GG had a lot of presence on 4Chan, and 4Chan makes anime mascot girls for basically everything. I don't know that there was ever more to it than that, although I do think that among the people that were concerned about the allegations of misogyny—either because they had not yet realized what leftism was like or because they were and remain leftists themselves—having a female mascot that was possessed of a normal, not hambeast body but also not dressed in a bikini was appealing in much the same way #NotYourShield was.
"Vivian James" is supposed to sound like "Video Games," and the clover on her headband is a nod to the 4chan logo. There are probably also details behind some of the other design choices, but I've forgotten them.
"KIA5 was our last, best hope for peace. It failed."
My first thought was this classic.
"might", "mildly".
Tentacle rape, and underwear-clad doing a crotch-focus leg-spread for the viewpoint. Yes. Mildly. Might be lewd.
Literally the first one I clicked on at random.
Shmanks. Also catbox wasn't working right when I made this post so that was extra good news when I saw this.

Who is the red bald guy that looks like Red Skull/Dr. Manhattan?
What is the background of Vivian? I never understood how she came about.

The colors meant something but I can't remember what.
