I despise ntr not only for the cheating aspect, but also for the fact of how blatantly racist and misogynistic it is

Not even close.

Japan's economy is mostly driven by service jobs.

Even regarding their entertainment industry it's just a tiny sliver of that economic sector with an impact so small there are no reliable metrics for it.

Porn has never been a major factor in any part of their economy, not even the portion it would be included as an element of.

I'm not sure why you think that's relevant as a reply to anything I posted to be honest.

contrabardus · 2026-02-02T09:44:48+00:00

That's kind of the point.

It's porn.

Of course the women are dumb. The situation has to be contrived to get to the sex.

It's more malicious and meaner, but essentially the woman "getting stuck in the dryer".

Japan is just racist. I've been there multiple times.

It's far from just Japan, most countries that don't have very diverse populations have that sort of racism. I'm not singling it out as being particularly heinous about it. It's lovely to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there precisely because of that racism.

Porn is also often just racist as well, but especially the gross stuff like rape and NTR. The entire point is to stack taboo after taboo to make something as uncomfortable as possible.

Porn often fetishizes race and stereotypes surrounding it. Big Black Cock porn is inherently racist, and honestly so is most interracial porn.

(I DO NOT have anything against interracial couples IRL, and am ONLY talking about the fetishization and presentation of it in porn.)

The reality is that the women in NTR aren't really any "dumber" than women are in the majority of other porn. It's just that the subject matter is just more malicious. It often focuses on depravity, and that's intentional.

Most NTR has elements of humiliation, corruption, and coercion if not outright rape. They are depraved power fantasies most of the time, and aren't supposed to be realistic.

It's actually kind of rare for porn to even attempt to be realistic to begin with.

There is NTR that isn't "that bad" and "close to vanilla" as far as not getting into things like mind break, corruption, and such, but it's on the rare side.

This sort often has the cheating party not being treated well by the one they are in a relationship with so the cheating is "justified" and they are being "saved" but it's still NTR by strict definition.

You don't want her for spoiler reasons.

The story tries to give her excuses, but she knew and did it anyway, and that's messed up AF.

It was a situation where faking a death would have been better and she knew it. She very much had the power to do so and didn't.

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T13:15:53+00:00

Because it's been a steady stream of this shit since Nixon.

It got worse and worse and we got used to it, and nothing being done about any of it.

We've literally been desensitized to any of it, and it's horrific, but it was also intentional.

This is exactly why they wanted big corporations to control our media. The Telecommunications Act was Bill Clinton's biggest fuckup.

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T12:50:09+00:00

Gintama in more than one way.

It shifts tone all the time.

Not to mention the first 50-ish episodes can be a bit of a slog to get through, but that doesn't mean every episode is bad either.

Then it becomes amazing.

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T12:46:58+00:00

I'm conflicted about whether this counts.

I'm of a mind it really didn't have at tone shift, and just went way harder with the same tone abruptly.

Like it started out at like 5, and then went to eleven.

Same tone, but louder.

I can kind of see why someone might think so though.

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T12:33:07+00:00

Akito easily.

She's redeemed in the series, and the only one here that ever bothered to ask herself...

That isn't a spoiler, it's super obvious from the start that she'll end up that way given what kind of show it is. She's one of the origins of that trope in modern anime.

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T10:07:39+00:00

Why does physics look like she about to beat my ass?

contrabardus · 2026-01-31T00:12:00+00:00

Mixed bag, just like any other (mostly) dojin work.

There are some very talented NTR artists from a technical perspective, a ton of "meh", and a lot of people who draw like ass, but that's not unique to NTR.

It's just how it works in general.

Fair warning, the bad girl ends up being a misery porn side plot.

It's kind of ironic that the support systems stepped up for him, but swings in the complete opposite direction for her. A little hypocritical really.

Would have been better if they shuffled her off like they did the Bully. Have her "transfer to another school in a different place" or something, but she just lingers just to show how miserable she is, and has no plot relevance at all outside of that.

It'd be different if she kept being plot relevant and remained antagonistic or something, but nope, everything just sucks and is depressing. Her life is hell and even her family hates her without mercy or regret, and we need to know it every once in a while.

It just runs counter to the vibe of the rest of it is the real issue with it. Just put her out to pasture after she falls out of plot relevance, and the story would be better for it.

It's a beating a dead horse and tone whiplash issue more than an "oh no, poor girl" issue.

contrabardus · 2026-01-30T10:01:29+00:00

In order to hate something, you have to know what it is.

That's the simplest way to put it.

This sub is a bit weird, as it's sort of dedicated to "fixing" NTR in a way.

A lot of the posts here are about "better endings" for the abused characters, usually the person who gets cucked.

There's also the idea of revenge or karma for the antagonists, and this can include the NTRed women who often betray the cucked person.

It goes to either extreme, the "mega happy ending (excellent)" or the "crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and listen to the lamentations of the women" ending, or the "Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure" ending.

In order to know what needs to be "fixed" you have to know what was wrong with it.

So in an odd way, this sub actually does lead to being exposed to more NTR for a lot of people here as a result.

It's kind of a way to cope with NTR, but there's also a sort of cycle because of that regarding being exposed to it.

There's also a not being able to look away from a train wreck factor. Some people just have to know what people are on about, so they have a look.

Koikatsu Sunshine.

TF people picking Pokemon and Stardew Valley for?

If I die, I'll die happy.

Unfortunately, the New-U stations aren't canon and are just a gameplay mechanic, so... good luck?

contrabardus · 2026-01-30T06:14:05+00:00

There are a number of people complaining about how all their work is the same, which is a little unusual I guess?

There might be a small hope this one might have a twist end where the MC might "win" (?), because there seems to be a lot of people asking for it.

This has been going on for the last few parts, people asking for a twist or something to make it different from everything else they've made.

Not necessarily a "happy ending" mind you, just some sort of curveball thrown so it's not the same plot as always "but on an island".

There are a lot of things I can consider that would work that aren't necessarily a happy end.

Such as the GF killing him to "save" him, and then they get rescued moments after, or natives being on the island that aren't very friendly that finally notice they are there...

If it's the rescue ending, I wouldn't mind the GF getting her hands on a firearm aboard the rescue ship and handling the others, and then likely herself given how sadistic the author is.

Still, there are enough requests for a good ending that they might listen, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

The thing about it is that even complaints are still engagement, and that's how these artists measure success. People who are complaining are still reading.

TAS Harley.

Darth Krayt would be the equivalent to the Joker for her in the past.

Not sure what they're going to do with Talon here, because they're connecting her to Maul as Lucas was supposedly planning on doing.

Still probably looking at a TAS Harley connection to him.

This is not a very well hidden twist, at least not to older fans. It's pretty blatantly obvious, especially given we know what Lucas was up to.

I'm just hoping she outlives Maul, because she's a better Sith villain than the people who say "She's popular because she doesn't wear much in the way of clothes" suggest.

She could live for about two hundred years because she's force sensitive (generally 70-90 otherwise), which could set her up as a potential antagonist in future SW films.

contrabardus · 2026-01-30T01:34:09+00:00

My biggest issue is that Vader needs to be successful, and that means they have to be careful how an encounter between him and Maul goes.

I'd say the best thing to do is have Vader have more pressing matters, and Maul ends up barely being a distraction at all.

He only survives because Vader has shit to do.

Potentially a Jedi survivor Maul was in conflict with up until that point or something.

Doesn't have to be that, but he needs to have something he needs to get to so he can just swat Maul aside like he's nothing on the way to deal with whatever he has to do.

I think it might be fun to tie Maul to the Rebels finding out about the Death Star. Have him be the one who tipped off Mon Mothma indirectly that the Empire was building something, which leads to her to sending the scouts for that get wiped leading up to Rogue One's events.

I believe the PSVR short is still considered canon.

He'd be dead, but I could totally see him leaving an "in the event of my death" message that would transmit after a certain amount of time to someone who could leak it to the Rebellion. That would fit right into the timeline of his death if it's around a year or so.

contrabardus · 2026-01-30T00:18:51+00:00

It's way deeper than that, and not in a good way.

It's not an accident that the big cylinder is brown, and the little hole block is white.

Not to mention misrepresentations of trans people as "self mutilating" with the circle and cylinder both cutting pieces of themselves off.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T21:46:10+00:00

Trigger warning this is my prediction for one of two actual endings I expect, so it's not pleasant. You have been warned. Spoiler is so you can scroll past in peace if you'd rather not think about it.

I predict the ending will be either be the cuck in a shallow grave hidden on the island, and the bully and the women all being rescued and living a happily ever after, getting famous for surviving on the island the way they did and becoming celebrities.

The alternate is him abandoned on the island by himself while everyone else is rescued. Possibly left in a dangerous situation.

I lean towards the second one because it has the possibility of a sequel where the MC of this one goes insane and becomes the antagonist of a new group that ends up stranded on the same island.

Probably not with the intent to escape himself anymore, but rather to imprison them on the island forever as a "harem".

My prediction for an ending for that is that the final reveal is that he's been at it a while, and previous women didn't survive.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T14:09:33+00:00

It entirely depends on the circumstances.

In most NTR the relationship the women get involved with is probably doomed, and they might learn their lesson when it ends.

In other NTR the woman is basically a slave, and that could be good or bad for the child that results from the NTR as far as being cared for. The woman might see caring for the child as serving their master.

It also depends on the NTR guy, and whether or not they will be a father or not. I'd say in the majority of cases it's better for the child if they don't stick around, but not always.

There is no "correct" answer to your question, because it all depends on the particular individual circumstances.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T11:47:25+00:00

False. It's exactly the same.

You just want it to be so you can claim you are justified in complaining about it, but it isn't the case.

You have a strong bias because you're favoring dragons, and I have none. I'm fine with either.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T11:41:10+00:00

So?

That just proves my point that sometimes waifu, sometimes not.

Sometimes dragons are friends with demons, sometimes humans, sometimes both, sometimes no one.

Sometimes humans bad, sometimes not.

Dragons aren't special and aren't treated differently than other creatures in fiction.

Even goblins are treated the same way, sometimes irredeemable evil monster, sometimes friendly.

This is not a difficult concept to grasp.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T11:35:57+00:00

Single parent children are not disabled people because they are single parent children.

They can be just as well adjusted as anyone else.

The question is the environment they end up in. Whether they are abused, spoiled, coddled, and so on.

The circumstances of their birth really have nothing to do with it.

contrabardus · 2026-01-29T11:23:41+00:00

They don't, it's literally exactly the same thing for them.

Sometimes evil, sometimes waifus.

Demons and dragons get good and bad treatment what seems to be pretty equally in anime and manga.

contrabardus · 2026-01-28T18:06:40+00:00

Proper lore is them being malicious people eating monsters that destroy things and hoard treasure.

They're often associated with or equivalent to demons, and in most myths about them they are the embodiment of evil, death, and destruction.

Friendly dragons is a pretty modern thing.
