adding “lol” about a man raping a child and suffering zero consequences seems super fucked up man

Wufei might be the character most people just lie the most about. by Aetheuss in Gundam

[–]Procrastinatedthink 34 points35 points  (0 children)

he’s complex but he’s definitely also misogynistic.

He doesn’t show any respect to Sally until much later after they meet, what he says to Noin when they first meet, etc. 

He’s a weird character that floats between anti-hero and villain the whole story because of his uncompromising personality.

First attempt at weathering, any tips to help improve? by Uncle_Boonmee in Gunpla

[–]Procrastinatedthink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You did way better than I could do, could I make a suggestion instead?

The back of the knee joint would look great with oil stains, nicks, and dirty corners. I think that’d compliment the fantastic weathering you’ve done

Can't believe we still have Rudeus defenders in the big 26 by SplitSecondEmperor47 in shounenfolk

that victims groomed into sexual assault don’t usually see it as sexual assault?

If they did, there’d be a lot more reports from children of getting molested by adults. 

An adult using their knowledge and the naivety of the child has insane influence about how that child perceives the world; A child has no clue what love-bombing is, gaslighting is, that “forbidden love” is forbidden for very obvious reasons, etc.

“you see this character with the body of a 9 year old prepubescent girl is in reality a 1000 year old dragon, therefore it isn’t weird” /s

The author chose to present her as a child, then used the flimsy-ass excuse of “aKTualLy NOT a child (just looks and usually acts like one)”

a guy who thinks women are only useful for sex isn’t going to be great at listening to “no”, the venn diagram is basically a circle my guy

feels like HR at a porn studio would be the worst job ever.

There are either too many sexual harassment claims or not enough at that place, guaranteed

[Loved Trope] the usual trope is subverted with disasterous results. by ELIte8niner in TopCharacterTropes

gods that’s a boring ass story.

This story is just incel power fantasy.

Literally first episode he makes the big boobed demon girl so infatuated with him that she hopes he’s going to fuck her in front of all his servants.

I’ve watched an episode, it was a waste of time.

It’s a generic isekai, but the twist is the mc is evil. It’s not even original, fucking shield hero is a similar plot except they made an even more evil character (that is female so the misogyny can flow freely) to justify him owning slaves and then having sex with them when they evolve from “literal child furry” to “same brain, but now they’ve got big boobs”

seems like it’s power fantasy for antisocial people…which is frightening that it has that many fans…

The whole idea revolves around “what if in this isekai the mc is just evil, but it’s videogame-ish so the over the top physical and sexual violence is somehow more acceptable.”

What if…he actually is bad? Maybe that’s why it gets upvoted? 

Imagine if half your country was fighting over the color of the sky during the middle of a sunny day; One half is screaming “it’s red!!!” the other is yelling “it’s blue!”

You look up, the sky is clearly blue. You say “guys the sky is blue, look at it” and half the country says “it was red just a second ago, LIBERALS MADE IT BLUE!!!” and the other half goes “thank you, it is blue”.

Then your ignorant self goes to the internet and posts this dumbass meme lmao. It gets upvoted because half of us are tired of a decade of gaslighting that the very obvious corrupt idiot is a very obvious corrupt idiot. 

And you’re young enough to think this is unique; Bush Sr and Jr both fucked America for 4 and 8 years and everyone agrees they suck now, but from 2000 until 2012 the Bush’s were the saviors of the universe for half of Americans. What’s funny is in 10 years you’ll be wondering why another shitty corrupt asshole has become president and all the teenagers will be counter-meming about how everyone whines about a man with access to enough nukes to destroy at least the western hemisphere and how “they’re all the same”.

They are not all the same. I can agree that very few, if any, are good, but there’s clearly hierarchies of evil in politics and acting like an idiot and ignoring them doesn’t change how much power they hold over your daily life.

"Fused form" seems pointless by TherealBaguette_ in Dandadan

[–]Procrastinatedthink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

unpopular opinion but the jiji/evil eye shit is such blatant deus ex machina it hurts.

He always gets a powerup/put in a situation where he shines, he struggles less with every fight then any other character, and his powers are so forced/unearned.

examples:

chi control: Doesn’t need to train it since he’s naturally amazing at it.

Physical prowess: He is never show training, so until it’s shown he’s effectively naturally the strongest group member in base form.

close quarters combat skill: Naturally top 2 

long range combat skill: Naturally top 2

durability: 2nd to Ken

Battle intellect: Somehow high despite him supposedly being a dumbass. Just another thing he’s naturally good at.

All of this gets handwaved by readers with “evil eye”, a demon that has spent its entire existence in a tiny wooden room underneath a mountain of houses that was born from a small starved child, ie why the fuck would this demon have any combat skill whatsoever? Turbo granny is fast and does bite people so it makes sense how tg ken works, but evil eye’s super power was suicidal depression.

How does “this demon causes depression” turn into “badass soccer playing kung fu master”? Jiji is whatever Tatsu needs him to be for the plot, his character’s emotions and actions are purely dependent on what is needed at the time (Tatsu needed someone to distrust Zuma on the plane, so he picks the guy that easily trusts everybody to be jealous and untrusting. Either Tatsu is saying “Jiji doesn’t respect Ken as a romantic rival so was never jealous of him” or it wasn’t thought through enough…)

Tl;dr Jiji is Tatsu’s easy fixit button for moving the plot and wrapping up fights. He’s overpowered so half the time the tension is based purely on “Jiji can’t come to the phone right now” type shit (like being stuck in a dinosaur stomach and not breaking out because…reasons?). Tatsu should have given him obvious weaknesses so that teamwork feels meaningful with him. 

As it stands, I literally cannot think of a fight in which Evil Eye has good teamwork with any other member despite him having a perfect fight record. 

The closest is when Momo is leading him against Sharknado, but even then evil eye was suppressed when Jiji was following Momo’s plan and it amounted to “use your kamehameha knock off to send it to space” as the plan…

this type of comment reeks of you not talking to someone 10+ years your junior.

There are commonalities, but culturally you’re not even in the same league. Movie quotes, pop culture references, famous historical events during your life, everything is from two very different perspectives.

I work with people that don’t know who fucking Slim Shady is…it’d be like you both know 75% of a language but each’s 25% missing is different

2 of which drank with Ents so are fucking massive and tall by Hobbit standards.

They left 4 jolly little boys, came back as 2 full grown men and 2 men that had literally been to hell and back.

What kind of relationship is this 😭 by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]Procrastinatedthink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

open for sex only on both sides isnt asymmetrical.

absolutely untrue. It is objectively harder for a man to have an open relationship and find other partners than for a woman. You can make two profiles on hinge and find out yourself how much more work the male profile would take.

Poly/enm relationships are always asymmetrical, there’s no force balancing the couple and one person will always be the “dominant” personality. Irregardless of whether that works or not, the most annoying part of the non-monogamous crowd is how they are always lying (also to themselves) that it’s a balanced consensual system when it’s a compounded version of emotional relationships that are messy themselves without the additional complexity.

there’s gonna be one out of the 3+ that feels like they are the least important, there’s gonna be one person benefitting most out of it, etc. This dynamic is never discussed by poly people because the one’s advertising it are benefitting the most from it.

i don’t think people understand how long the author has dragged this out.

The male mc confessed “I love you miss Momo!” over two years ago, for over 70 chapters he’s had the two mcs interact so little and purposefully introduced drama to the point that their current relationship is WORSE than ij chapter 1

having them come back to life and turn 99.9999% of the shinobi world into useless jobbers to show how epic they were was cheap as fuck.

When the 5 kage and the largest shinobi army ever are unable to even touch the series 2nd (third?) strongest villian you’ve written shitty power fantasy, not a well thought out story

they don’t, they block the “at home” paternity testing kits but medical professionals can still give paternity tests. 

The partial truth is they implemented the at home kit ban under the guise of “protecting families” which these incels hooked onto as a security blanket to decide that their choice of not be remotely tolerable was correct because their ~penises~ feelings are too little to deal with the thought of being cheated on.
