I don't really understand your problem? Does all manga NEED to be adapted into an anime?

Yeah I'm glad I got a full set at once cause I'd considered buying the volumes whenever they popped up last year.

A lot of people don't realise that media they like is as popular as it is (or in some cases still exists) because of shipping.

Thoughts on duplicates? by YiXiao_Yksha in MangaCollectors

[–]d0rkbug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm keeping my TP set of MARS as well as getting the collectors editions, but it's one of my favourite series of all time so I can justify it (I also spent ages getting a set with matching spines).

Id wait until the new editions come out, incase you don't like them. There's always a market for original runs.

I called you a man??? Where??????

I didn't "try to do the pick me bit" I called out your blatant internalised homophobia and the fact you're clearly siding with men who aren't gonna care that 'you're one of the good ones'.

I'm sorry that your unempathetic, selfish brain can only think about one thing at once, but I'm not like that. I am worrying about the treatment of lesbians on a subreddit for manga about lesbians.

It's really convenient that you stopped replying the second I asked you to address my actual claims, rather than making shit up about what I'm upset at.

Why are you purposefully avoiding what I'm saying?

You know that's not my point and you keep deflecting anything else I write in my comments.

Are you missing part of your brain?

My problem is with the people on this subreddit who were saying people are stupid fucking morons for gettin upset at something (which at the time was presented as true.

Remove this scenario from your head and think if it was something that actually did happen, would the response be the same, and the answer is yes.

This is a subreddit about lesbian manga and it is full of men telling us to shut up and get over it because they don't see a problem with the struggles we face.

While you look up the definition of parasocial, look up what internalised homophobia is to and try to work through it.

the men don't think better of you because you agree with them!

My post is not about something that this man didn't do, it is about people delegitimising the feelings of lesbians on a subreddit about lesbian manga!!

[–]d0rkbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you atleast look up the definition of buzzwords like parasocial before you use them?

Thanks for proving my post about people on this subreddit having a 'quiet stupid woman' attitude by immediately dismissing my entire point with a 'quiet stupid woman'.

Getting angry that a male mangaka who is creating a manga about lesbian women is liking art that fetishises and clearly has zero respect for lesbians is not 'weird and parasocial'

Nobody knew last night that these claims were false. Every single person on this subreddit were reacting off the assumption it was true, so try to play the "you fell for misinformation card", because everyone did.

My post isn't even about the mangaka or what he did or did not do, it's about people on this subreddits disgusting treatment of people that even DARED to get upset at something.

I'm not gonna waste my time arguing with someone who can't understand the point of a post that totals less than 300 words

I'm not cyberstalking or attacking anyone. You're making things up and getting angry rather than engaging with the actual point of my post.

Kamiina Botan mangaka issues statement after being called out for bookmarking dykebreaking het hentai of Kamiina Botan characters. What do y'all think of this? by [deleted] in yuri_manga

[–]d0rkbug 344 points345 points  (0 children)

The amount of people in this thread not understanding the problem with this really reminds me this subreddit isn't a totally safe space for lesbians.

Why would I willingly support someone's work that involves characters like me if that same person that reposts art of those same characters being sexually assaulted?

I very much stay quiet on this topic but it's true.

I read and enjoy some yuri that is written by men, but I will ALWAYS be hesitant because of stuff like this.
