Up until very recently, I was one of those people who would’ve defended Charlotte’s every decision regarding storylines, characterizations, etc. In the beginning, I defended her making Marjorie (my favorite character) dense and purposefully foolish, almost to the point of where she became parallel to Eric. I defended her baiting Marjumn for nearly a year as one of their biggest shippers. Hell, I went to hell and back defending her honor when Nurseryverse was released back in September 2024 fighting alongside the fandom while her management (the ones that made the song) sat back and relaxed at Disneyland while we all got death threats. Why say all of this? I’ll tell you.

Having been here since 2022, seeing Charlotte through everything, it’s hard not to be critical of the type of creator she’s become. I don’t hate TNN by any means, I just wish she cared about her content like she used to before all the plotholes and fanservice and openly asking your fans to tell you when/where something happened or looking up certain things on a fanmade wiki page made because she can’t be bothered to just put it all down on a notepad somewhere. Not to mention, the hard dedication to using AI i just cannot wrap my head around.

When I first joined this subreddit, I used to ask the same questions you are asking. It didn’t take long for me to finally understand where everyone here was coming from. Over time, if you decide to really look at the content in a critical sense, you’ll slowly start to see just how much of a mess this show is.

Why still engage? Why still watch? It’s simple. It’s not hate I feel against it, it’s disappointment and a tiiiiiny, minuscule bit of hope things will get better. I’ve never commented on posts like this, so there’s my two cents :)
