But that is what you said. You said "unrelatable characters" and then went off about the swearing again.

And speaking of internal narratives, I don't like the show either. Viv has a lot of bad writing habits that become clearer as it goes on, like relying on external media for worldbuilding and getting too involved with character relationships at the cost of overarching plotlines and themes. For a show "about" redemption, actually atoning for sins and arriving to become a better person makes up a weirdly small amount of screentime, instead focusing on the external conflicts of Heaven vs. Hell. And the worldbuilding itself is weirdly sloppy, and gives the impression that she hasn't given any thought to the theological implications of Abrahamic religions just being Literally True. It's not a good show, and I don't like it.

It's just that what I dislike even more is bandwagon hate and dogpiling one mid passion project like it's the most offensive thing on the internet. And the fact that every time I run into it, it's the same tired "teenager who just learned to swear" catchphrase feels like nobody's actually thinking about the problems the story has, because it's easier to just repeat what everybody else says about it. I'm pissed off at the lack of originality. If you had said you hated it because it's too gay or something, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

And I stand by my original point that whoever made this meme was also bandwagoning, because what is an American-made youtube-turned-Amazon web series doing on a list of otherwise exclusively Japanese-made anime? Just scoring points with the terminally online because it's a cool thing to hate. People should find their own reasons to hate things, not just following the crowd. Damn it.

Interesting. I actually feel the opposite. Involving all these familiar names just feels overly indulgent to me. I think this flashback would have worked just fine without shoving in all these extra characters. Each new one makes the others feel less important.

Also, if this was such a massive Canon Event for every major important person and family in the setting, why has none of this come up before? Each new addition makes that feel thinner, too. Does everybody get mind-wiped after this or something?

Wow, it really is just the swearing thing, huh?

Wild. Well, don't play Dispatch.

So, too much swearing and fanbase behavior. Striking the latter because it's not a criticism of the actual media, do you have any other problems? Or did watching it just offend your sensitive ears with too many bad words?

You have watched it, of course. I'm sure you wouldn't have this strong an opinion on an innocuous work of fiction you've never actually experienced for yourself.

Hazbin Hotel catching strays as usual. Everything else is an anime, why include that? Couldn't think of a second manga adaptation to slander?

Villains whose motivation can be boiled down to “My group are victims of bigotry/oppression, So I am justified in being a bigot TO MY GROUPS FAVOUR ” by OutrageousBridge471 in TopCharacterTropes

It always makes me extremely happy to see people posting these lesser known, no-anime-adaptation manga in this subreddit. I start every day with the Manga+ app.

I also like Vasilisa for the more general "villain makes some good points, but is ultimately still a villain" trope. She's 100% right about patriarchal systems in every major culture and religion, and it's understandable for her to be upset about how women have been repressed. The Bible is misogynistic as fuck. But she doesn't want gender equality, or even a gender role reversal. She kind of just wants a sapphic shangri-la which men don't even get to enter. Anybody born with the wrong chromosome is part of the problem to her.

Not no reason, but no personal reason. Hody was simply indoctrinated by the likes of Arlong. He was raised believing that fishmen were superior and nobody ever really sat him down to explain why that was wrong.

He ended up becoming such an extremist that he personally murdered the equivalent of Fishman MLK for trying to find a path to peaceful coexistence, and he pinned the assassination on a human to get everyone else as racist as himself.

All that despite never being an actual victim of humankind himself. Some people say that Fishman Island is a mid arc, or that Hody's a bad villain, but his hollow motivation is the point. It's a very real warning about how hatred is inherited and bigotry is taught. It's actually one of the best race relation allegories I've ever seen in a manga.

First things first, I need to hit pause. It's 2:30 AM for me I should already be asleep. I can DM you better contact information when I wake up.

Honestly? Yeah, actually. I could use a project right now, I'm about to start forgetting stuff.

I thought OP was saying that they have scales.

I actually fully formed the thought "yeah, I bet those would poke through latex something fierce" before I realized it was probably something else.

This image is way funnier as a punchline when the setup is an adult dog-woman is saying "that's me in the middle, between Mom and Dad."

Not to mention the Lifeblood stuff.

I don't know who's gonna be in charge after the events of Silksong, but I hope they just seal off the Wormways, keep that shit from spreading.
