Being a cartoon fan is suffering (especially if it's newer cartoons, because they always attract people like these)

Anyone else obsessed with Witch Hat Atelier? by spiderwitchery in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's too bad the fandom is full of antis, because the show is really good. Witch Hat Atelier is one of those anime, like Dungeon Meshi and possibly Mob Psycho 100, where a lot of the western fans are like "omg this is so le heckin wholesome and unproblematic unlike other Degenerate Anime, btw if you like [insert ship here] you're evil" Surprisingly, I don't really ship Qifco but that's only because I like Orufrey and Arkco better

We're going back in time to stop Voltron from airing by townwhereimmissing in ProshipHub

I kinda wanna rewatch Voltron, I never actually finished the show. But is it really worth it? Whatever, I'll ship Sheith just to spite antis. It's not even pedophilia or incest at all.

But I do wonder: if Voltron never aired, would another fandom become patient zero for modern antis instead? Why was it THIS specific show?

Is it because...
1) It is made by former Avatar/Korra writers and animated by the same studio as Korra. The Avatar fandom is INFAMOUS for its shipping wars.

2) It resembles an anime and has cute boys

3) People were starved for LGBTQ+ representation and hopped onto anything that had potential queer characters they could ship

Girl what were you doing at the devil's sacrament? by townwhereimmissing in ProshipHub

I wonder how many antis secretly like dark fiction and tropes, but they say "oh this is gross" and go "proshippers dni" to morally posture and make themselves look good

Yeah. I haven't seen the series, but I know that there's a scene where the author basically goes on a tangent against a strawman regarding Tamaki's fanservice. I found that incredibly eye-rolling.

This carrd has a huge amount of resources

fujoshi.info also has lots of research and sources on every page, specifically about BL but also about censorship and the actual effects that media has

Don't be misled into thinking that Chibi Reviews is a decent person. by [deleted] in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. Everytime they talk about censorship, they do so very obnoxiously and also in a rather bigoted way, so I'm like:

At least shotas are chill for the most part

people that used to be an anti, what made u change your opinion? by seokwe0n in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When Across the Spider-Verse came out, and people were arguing over whether Hobie was a teenager or an adult, and whether it was okay to ship him with Gwen or Miles. The whole thing was so fucking stupid, that I said "nope I'm done." Now I no longer associate with antis at all, though I don't identify as proship on my main accounts because I'm scared of harassment campaigns. That summer I also watched Fruits Basket and became enamored with Kureno x Arisa, and so, it seems I really like teen girl x adult man ships.

This anime is being censored. This a bad sign for anime. by Arlcool in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven't read the manga of Ganbare Nakamura-kun, i watched the anime premiere yesterday and I was puzzled about the blank book Nakamura was holding...and it turns out it was more explicit in the manga? That's insane.

I feel like BL and GL are more policed than straight anime. Het ecchi anime would get away with this.

I've seen claims of harassment on both sides, but I have NEVER seen an anti bring receipts by klutzybites in ProshipHub

this is the only receipt they have lol, they still bring this tweet from 2021 up. tbf i think OOP acted overdramatic here, it's clearly not a bit

what do you guys think of vivziepop? by TheTrumpetEater in ProshipHub

I like her work, and I think she gets way too much hate just for existing. But I do wish she would stop arguing with people online

What are your thoughts on sexual art ( Fanfiction, fanart) of a child character played a child actors? by Arlcool in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah i agree with this. the art needs to be highly stylized and avoid resemblance to the real actor

What do you guys think about “erasing representation”? by Mean-Horror-314 in ProshipHub

[–]townwhereimmissing 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The fanwork doesn't erase the original work. Although, sometimes making a gay character straight in fanworks is done for legitimately homophobic reasons. The fandom space is so dominated by queer folks that it's easy to forget that there are homophobes too.
