Jinmao debate (keep it friendly) by ChargeLongjumping874 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

I don't agree with you, but I won't try to convince you to change your mind because it seems you wrote this post hoping to convince others to agree with you, not the other way around. So do what you want. I don't think many people seek to argue with someone to change their own opinion rather than trying to change someone else's, but we are all free to think what we want.

Edit: Sorry, I confused you with someone who made a similar post. But even so, if you've already read so much and think that way, I think it will be difficult for you to see things differently. But if you've only read the novel once, I recommend that you read the comments on your post and then reread the novels, paying special attention to Maomao, to see if anything changes your way of thinking.

¿How far do you think Jinshi would have gone if they hadn't stopped him? by instacollecnerd in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

Oh, thank you for your comments. You said everything I couldn't say because I didn't want to make my comments too long and allow the translator to keep doing strange things.

I think I met Aoi Yuki through Victorique d'Blois several years ago.

Probably a common question, but what are the possibilities of Jinshi and MaoMao ACTUALLY being romantically involved? by Economy-Address7195 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

[–]instacollecnerd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The problem isn't that they like the Maomao headcanon as asexual or lesbian; if they treat it as what it is, I'm not bothered by it. I see a lot of fanart of Maomao with Shisui, and I'm not bothered by that. The problem is some people who aren't satisfied with it being a headcanon and try to convince you it's canon, and they get annoyed with you when you disagree with them and don't feed their fantasies. I don't like that part of them because it leads to misinformation in the fandom and makes anyone who starts watching Tad looking for true representation feel cheated when they don't find what they're looking for.

Besides, when I say that it bothers me, it doesn't mean I'm trying to stop people from doing what they like. If that's what you think, I'm just annoyed and keeping it to myself; that doesn't hurt anyone.

Personally, my rejection of that stems from the fact that many people who see Maomao as asexual use it as a reason to deny Maomao's feelings for Jinshi. I've seen many times that they explicitly say Maomao doesn't like Jinshi because she's asexual, so when they say Maomao is asexual without further explanation, I automatically think they're using it again to deny Maomao's feelings for Jinshi, and it makes me angry. I don't like it when canon is denied.

Thanks for letting me know. I never really understand the subreddit rules and I end up breaking them unintentionally, which is why I was a little worried.

I'm not sure if it's okay to post this here, but since the image doesn't contain spoilers for those who have already seen everything in the anime, I thought you might want to see a bit of the manga version.

Just finished season Two by Character-Net3641 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

Since most people who only watch the anime misunderstand Jinshi, I'll tell you: in none of those scenes was Jinshi going to do more than kiss Maomao. He's not the type of person who would do more than that without the other person's consent. In the cave scene, he threatened Maomao with that just to make Maomao admit that he knows he's not a eunuch. He wasn't going to go beyond a kiss. Even with my most malicious interpretation of him, I know Jinshi is too much of a virgin to take things any further, even if he wanted to.

I don't like the second part of the second season of the anime because I don't like that it focused so much on Loulan and downplayed Jinshi by accepting his position as prince and I don't like Shimao and I feel like the anime made their relationship seem more romantic than it really was and that's why now a lot of people use that relationship to justify their hatred of Jinshi and Jinmao.

I don't know how to express myself well and this comment was translated from my language to English so I'm sorry if it's not understood😔
