I am lucky to only know how bad it is and be otherwise ignorant of such a thing

I hope the revolutionaries archive the online activities of reactionaries for future judgement. It will be a glorious day when they are brought to justice.

We cannot humiliate this one. Too cute.
T’was funny. Although, I’m beginning to enjoy the peace. Being away from western mainstream media has been healing my mind.
Same, it’s nice when the people in your phone don’t argue with you about if colonialism was right or wrong or there was this one time in reddit they blamed me when I told my almost rape story, yk fellas here are nice and not even faking being nice just nice people in phone nice
they blamed me when I told my almost rape story
That’s disgusting behaviour from them… looks like not much has changed since that infamous askreddit thread with many users sympathising with the assaulters…

I highly recommend comrade, its been doing wonders for my mental health. Some are great, but the western hold over the internet makes sure that toxicity leaks into my mind. A walk with an audiobook felt so good I almost cried lmao.
Just play Minecraft instead.
ugh, I remember that one

I’m all for revenge plots if they’re well-done, but the main character in that one was just too gross
deleted by creator
yeah, rape as revenge in general is an immediate “nope”
It’s anime bruv. No one is idolising it
deleted by creator
What the… that description makes sure I do not want to see it. I am pretty cold blooded but it seems like a genre that is better off outside of my head. No need to ruin anime, the way I watch it.

Revenge style plots are done like in Berserk, and those turn out to be legendary.
grim, dark scene described as text
Although it does have Griffth (one of the head apostles) raping Casca and it is very demonic, it has very archaic setting. You can question the rape but it allowed for Berserk to happen.
I do not want to come across as justifying it as fiction, and I do not think something like Berserk can or will be made again.
Also a warning, that scene is too grim and dark. If you have not watched it and cannot stomach it, please do not watch it.

However if women started making anime or movies that featured a lot of male rape I bet you’d see a sharp condemnation of the media by men as the concept and plot device now swivels to focus on them
There are too many chuds and incels/femcels out there. Acceptance is one hell of a thing, and closeted celibacy really allows to give shape to loser personalities. I know this so deeply because once upon a time I had incel like behaviour, and it was very, very horrible. I took my time and developed myself because I knew how wrong it was for everyone and myself.
I cannot write more, this is depressing.
Berserk has really spoken to me so far because of Guts’ trauma… he and Casca mirror each other in that way, I feel, and it allows for exploration of themes dealing with trauma very seriously rather than merely as a plot motivater for Guts. He’s a big, strong, angry man but he also allows himself to cry and to remember. I agree that it goes too far sometimes, I just love Berserk and think it’s incredible how a manga from that period actually had the nerve to tackle CSA against a male. As a genderfucked AMAB person, in part caused by the abuse I endured as a child, it is absolutely liberating to see this embodiment of manliness struggle in a similar way and attempt to overcome the toxic aspects of his masculinity. His fight for revenge is not only for Casca, but for the reflection of himself.
The anime removing a lot of that aspect of Guts bothered me, although I still enjoy it. I have to go into it with the meta-context of Guts having undergone the same trauma as he does in the manga to get full appreciation out of it, though.

It is literally fiction No one is apologising for it I am only stating my thoughts on that, that some finction is absolutely unacceptable in someone’s mind.
You are talking like this happened to an actual flesh and blood person. If even 1/10th of that happened, yeah surely it is a huge tragedy. I don’t get your equating of some non existing fictional animated characters’ pain with actual living beings

maybe don’t use that word when the person you’re replying to has “they/them” in their display name
I do not think the issue is gender/pronoun sensitivity here… he just has a very bad take lol
they’re both issues, and Ratette already dealt with the other one
Fair enough, he is just too insensitive.
I believe it is clearly understood “bruh/bro” words although can indicate gender, can also be used a genderless word.
Maybe expect that a comrade knows how to read?

That’s like 99.99% of all animes
The heavier they go into the fan service the less I care about a character. Doesn’t matter how deep or interesting they are. It’s like a complete inverse. The more of one the less of the other. I’m not talking about interested in a sexual way either. I mean I simply stop caring about the character in general and when they are on screen I actively loose interest in watching the show. I want well designed characters thay have personality and plot points.

Fan service sucks. Can’t even watch Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex without gratuitous close-ups on the main character’s ass. Kinda takes me out of it.

I’m wondering if there’s a Chinese dub that removed all those scenes.

Ironic that the manga displayed here has a rabid CP lover fanbase.

How much anime seems likes its shot via drone so it can look up a high school girl’s short skirt while all of the other actions occur?
I don’t get why everyone dislikes fanservice
deleted by creator
unless it’s done well (I can’t think of an example at the moment), I dislike it because it’s either pointless padding, actively undermines the character development, or is wildly inappropriate
Exactly. Story wise, it’s just filler. And it gets old very fast.
