On the topic of a Homestuck Anime: I'm not sure a straight adaption would work. I mean, let's face it, Homestuck is incredibly text heavy. Now, that's part of the charm of it, of course, but I can't see the pesterlogs working in a fully animated work. Of course, if it was an adaption, the pesterlogs could of course be condensed and done via voice chat (or perhaps done via audio transcription). Speaking of which... If the fandom is that enamored with this idea... Why hasn't an actual project appeared yet? I mean, Hussie's original offhand comment about Nepeta quest spawned not just a fanfic, but an actual video game project.

All of the pesterlogs would be in English, with Japanese voiceover -- although in most places the logs themselves would not be visible save for the occasional "flavor shot."
The reason fans haven't made this yet is that anime is actually very labor intensive. You need teams of VAs and, unless you want it to be flash-quality, likely teams of animators too. Yes, even for CG.

You clearly haven't looked around hard enough as the ninja attests to.
Have you ever seen Durarara!!!? The character development is sometimes interspersed with chat room discussions on the latest hapenins. It's just random cuts that lead you to infer who is who based on who says and knows what.
Did you know why eridian wen't on a killing spree? Because Feferi is the worst Morial EVER. She did the stupidest thing a calmer morial (as apposed to a berserker morial) can make. She broke up.
But to be fair, she thought that it was safe to do so because they had left their world (and their species was killed off, anyway), and so Eridan's genocidal ambitions could no longer be fulfilled. She says as much.
Of course, turns out that she was wrong, both about him no longer being dangerous and about him no longer being able to commit genocide. After all, the survival of their team meant that trolls weren't completely killed off yet. And despite Eridan's talk of wanting a better future for his people, he was ultimately willing to sacrifice the reproductive future of the sea dwellers in order to do the same to the land dwellers. Because apparently he is really just the worst sort of utter bastard who is driven by pure spite.
But it's not like Feferi was just completely senseless.

Why was Calliope saying she can't feel 3 other types of relationships? She likes having friends. Thats like Morials except without the dangerous parts.
That's like saying that a friend is like a matesprit but without the sexual parts. And some people might agree with that, but others would strongly dispute it.
Generally speaking, I think that it helps to look at a pair of adjacent quadrants as a false dichotomy: The broad category of relationship that includes both of the quadrants also includes more.

But there are too many things that are genetically vile in their physiology for alternia1 to be any form of decent society, not even talking about Utopia.
Keep in mind that humans could be described as selfish, greedy, violent, and short-sighted. Those traits are all parts of our gene pool. And yet so to are altruism, cooperation, foresight, etc.
Have you noticed how several of the A2 trolls we've met are actually pretty nice, and only a few are really especially bad? Keep in mind that the A1 troll planet was ruled by an alternate timeline version of Feferi.
Jealousy is a major part of human romance, mind you. Someone could look at that and say that there's no way that our species could be adapted to that in such a way that it wouldn't cause all sorts of terrible problems on both an individual and a societal level. And... they'd basically be right? You could call human society not "decent" on that basis, and on the basis that there's lots of horrible things that humans do for other reasons, for that matter. "Decent" is a fairly relative term. Still, human society does have some good points, too.

Wait, what what what? Not only do Sollux and Eridan not kill each other when given the chance, but Terezi explicitly points out when Eridan rather blatantly tries to get her to mediate between her and Sollux (in the Alterniabound flash).

Equius may be caste obsessed, but he really does care for her and wants what's best for her - it's just that he can't accept the thought of her flushing with someone of a lower caste, which is tricky because there's nobody on the entire meteor who shares a caste, so any relationship would be guilty of that.
Well, Equius and Aradiabot have the same blood color, as a fairly direct result of Equius's concern about such things. Which is not to say that he doesn't still regard their relationship as enticingly inappropriate.

But I should try not to think about it because everything about trolls breaks apart into little tiny pieces if you think about it.
No, when I think about it, practically everything about trolls makes perfect sense. It's unfamiliar, sure, but it's internally consistent.
Look, did you miss how in the 5x SHOWDOWN COMBO, everyone's instinct was to romance Gamzee in some way? It might as well have said in big, glowing letters "IN CASE IT WASN'T ALREADY CLEAR BY NOW, ROMANCE IS HOW TROLLS MANAGE VIOLENT PEOPLE". The part of this that you're not acknowledging is that this actually works pretty well at least some of the time.
You seem to think that a successful moirallegiance is a relationship in which one troll constantly deals with another's outbursts, rather than one that prevents frequent outbursts from happening. But one partner always running around putting out proverbial fires isn't the concept here. The idea is that the right sort of interactions with another person can lead to an improvement in general temperament.
As in, Equius doesn't not need a moirail because he's not a violent psychopath; he's not a violent psychopath because he has a moirail. If not for Nepeta, he'd probably be beating up other trolls instead of robots.
Heck, during a conversation between Vriska and Kanaya, it is specifically noted that Kanaya doesn't directly intervene to stop Vriska from doing bad stuff; furthermore, Kanaya even thinks that doing so would prevent their relationship from working. A relationship that Kanaya thinks at least might qualify as moirallegiance.
If you look at that, and the conversations between Eridan and Feferi and Nepeta and Equius, you'll see that exchanges between moirails often involve a lot of arguing, which one might think wouldn't be the best way to keep someone calm. But it seems that Eridan is refraining from wiping out the land dwellers for Feferi's sake, for much the same reason that Nepeta refrains from joining the Red Team. Moirails care enough about each other to be unwilling to upset each other, and these bonds of mutual concern thus serve to prevent trolls from engaging in dangerous and destructive behavior.
uu's name is Caliborn.
To everyone's complete lack of surprise, uu's weapon is a pool cue that doubles as an assault rifle.
Cherubs are strong and hardcore enough to gnaw off their own leg
Lord English can destroy Dream Bubbles, and presumably permakill anything living in them.
The shards from the destruction have apparently been whats killing the horrorterrors.
The sheer glitchyness of a 1 player session created a black hole?
That dreambubble was blue. The one that Aranea and Meenah were in was purple.

Does this mean that the dead trolls/humans that were in that/those bubble/bubbles (I'm not too sure if he wrecked one or two) are dead forever? Or did he just destroy the whole afterlife?
Either way, just knowing that he can destroy afterlives is just... horrendous. What will happen to Calliope now??
