The dynamic in sha po lang was my favourite, too bad it barely had any romance in it. Despite that it was really sweet though. Any nonnies who can recommend a danmei with younger top x older bottom who's still more powerful/respected in the relationship? I can't find the word, not exactly more assertive, but does hold his ground when the top starts being more assertive instead.

Part 1 of my yaoi anime/Ova ratings and reviews. hope you enjoy my ratings anons.
Love Stage 6/10
Some people may be shocked by that rating since many people love that series, but i just did not feel a chemistry between mc and ml, it was not interesting. Also of course no consent at always since it is a mid 2000's show. I honestly was more interested of the possible relationship between the caretaker of the mc (the one with glasses) with the older brother of the mc than the main couple.
Enzai falsely accused OVA 4/10
This story is not for the faint of heart or people who are sensitive to graphic things. The whole Ova is just a story about a minor getting violated in prison over and over again. I feel that there is cognitive dissonance in this story because the villain of this story is a ped0 officer who abuses that boy and puts him in prison…but then the male lead and the boys savior is also…a ped0 so like…i dont know.
Yarichin Bitch club OVA 7/10
This is one of those storys where i cant give a accurate rating because of how short the Ova's were, its a shame how many yaoi animes and ovas are so short or get postponed. But from what ive seen the story seems interesting and funny, again its a shame its so short and was never turned into a actual series. I was really into the pink haired guy from the ova ive seen and wanted to find out the reason why he pretends to be dumb when he is not.
Marudase Kintarou 0/0
So i have no idea what i just watched…so im unable to even give it a rating. I have no idea if this story is supposed to be a parody of yaoi or not because the story is so weird and bizarre that i actually started laughing. They fight by having sex with each other and the male lead wears no pants. There is also a manga of this story too but i am not able to find a english translation of it, if anyone ha s a english translations of this weird story let me know because i am interested in reading.
Viewfinder 6/10
This is one of those stories that would be so much better if there was a actual series to show everything instead of the 2 OVA's.
there was so much story and information to process that was all put into too episodes only. You didnt have time to look at character development or relationship. I wonder why these sadistic huge semes were so popular in the early 2000's. If im going to be honest i got bored and didnt even view the last 15 minutes remaining of the 2nd episode.
Kono Danshi, Ningyo Hiroimashita OVA 7/10
Good beginning, disappointing ending. The mermaid suddenly acting distant at the ending and wanting to go his separate ways makes no sense with how attached he was to the main character.
Im only giving this story a 7 because its not toxic but in my opinion i feel like it is a 6.
Koisuru Boukun OVA 6/10
Yeah this is also another story where i cant give a accurate rating because i feel like it needs to be longer. Its a basic homophobic str8 guy becoming gay for his friend type of story after his friend gets him drunk with a aphrodisiac.
Reincarnated into Demon King Evelogia’s World 7/10
I really liked this story and recommend it. the reason why i gave it a lower rating is because the seme is a literal child. Why is japan so obsessed with ped0shit.
Titans Bride 5/10
i feel like it could have been longer. The reason why im giving it a 5 is because there is one furry scene and i hate furry shit.
Ai no kusabi 5/10
So this is a rating for both the Ova and the series that got cancelled. This story gives me you know what vibes…all the people at the top are literally please blue eyes blonde people and the people at the bottom of the class have darker hair/eyes/tan idk but this gives me you know what kind of vibes also the ending is so disappointing in my opinion.
The series had potential its a shame that it stopped airing and it never finished.
Junjou romantica 5/10
So i haven't watched this anime recently so i am only able to give my thoughts from what i thought when i watched it 10 years ago. From what i felt was that i hated the main male lead so much and he gave me such gross pervy slime vibes and i thought the MC was a unlikable retard too.
I only liked one side couple since they were the only normal adult ones. I also hated that couple in this story that was literally a 35 yr old and a minor their story was also lame too.
Saezuru Tori wa Habatakanai: The Clouds Gather 7/10
I like this one, unfortunately there is no actual ending in this OVA because the manga is still ongoing when this OVA was made so if you are expecting to see how this story ends by looking at the OVA that ain't happening
Hyperventilation
Not going to rate since this isnt a anime nor a ova but im stil putting this here since it is animated. It is really short like only a couple of minutes.

>Enzai falsely accusedWow, that takes me back. The OVA is a complete joke like most 00's yaoi OVAs tend to be but the original VN is surprisingly fine for what it is, it has plenty of dark themes not suitable for the easily disturbed, revolves around noncon sex a lot and yeah, pedo stuff since the main villain is a child molester. The sex scenes are very rough if it already wasn't clear.

I'm kinda bored even though there's more bl out there than ever. There's even japanese, korean, thai and chinese live action, so many danmei, manhwa, manga but i feel like part of me wants something… more entertaining i guess? Like the last time i had so much fun was in 2019 after watching untamed and reading tgcf and svss because it was scratching that itch but i feel like the content that came after was kinda lackluster.
I think it's because i love anime as a medium the most, but in terms of high quality anime bl it's severely lacking. Also i don't mind live action but even though untamed was great most of chinese dramas are heavily censored which sucks because the korean/japanese/thai bl dramas don't have the same amount of plot, they're more focused on a simple gay romance. For those that are seeking porn we have unlimited content, but as someone who gets more invested in plot and prefers animation i don't have much to choose from. Even most fantasy bl manhwa/manga is more focused on simple romance scenarios (or just fucked up situations with dubcon) rather than making it feel like it has a bigger plot. I like when characters have sexual tension and fall in love while they have to save the world or solve a mystery or a crime, which is why i liked the untamed so much. Like two characters who have their own thing outside of just romance

I just wanna talk about these two and Square Enix being terrified of gay. The English translations neuter the fuck out of Layle and Keiss and how they interact with one another. I get in the late 00s the English translation team were probably worried about making things too gay but Dissidia Opera Omnia flat out changes Keiss' and Layle's dialogue to be less personal about each other (while the pair still insist they're "parters") and it's so fucking annoying. They keep the parallels between Ignis and Keiss but try to cut out the gay because Keiss' game came out a decade ago. Just admit you did a hack job back then and move on, SE.

i mean, if they are, it's in some obscure niche of the jp web i can't access because of the language barrier. i know lily hoshino has some good stuff but kek most of it is woefully untranslated.
…actually as i type this i recall lala no kekkon which has, apparently, sold five million copies? anyone know if that's considered exemplary for a BL

>>284556I honestly see them in straight hentai more than in yaoi. Even the word "trap" is totally moid language. Do a search for "trap" on a site like mangago and see what shows up compared to searching for "crossdressing". You're going to get more/better results if you're searching the right tags. I also see a fair amount of stories involving characters mistaking their childhood friend for a girl only to find out they were a man when they reunite as adults.
But for you, nonna I will list some of my favorite manga that feature crossdressing:
Moon and Sun
Suda-kun no Himitsu
Nise x koi boyfriend (picrel)
Can an otaku like me really be an idol?
Boy meets maria
Crossplay Love
and my absolute favorite "I Didn’t Ask You to Make Love to Me! The Man I’m Obsessed With is a Male Porn Star" absolutely incredible work of art.

Traps are just "flat chested moeblob girls with Schrodinger's dick being called boys." They're popular and memed to death by coomer moids that only jack off to whatever's feminine as long as they find them submissive and breedable. Those who like traps might be into futa as well. Of course girls and fujos aren't into that shit. Better choice would be pretty androgynous boys.

So fucking sick of retards in /snow/ saying that all of us are future Aidens. It's really no different to trannies accusing random people of being "eggs." I love BL and nothing disgusts me more than the idea of chopping my tits off. Aidens colonized BL when it got popular on Tumblr. Normal women were here first, and we'll still be in the fanbase long after the trans fad dies down.

Just look at how people bullied women back in 2010 if they liked twilight and boybands.
People dont give a fuck at the fact that 90% of josei content is drawn by men or pickmes who make the woman hot and the guy ugly and the two of them have mediocre sex where the focus is on the womans body and you as a women are supposed to be okay with that and shut your mouth.
A extremely small amount of josei actually has media that women actually find appealing meanwhile the rest is porn garbage or is boring.
Its no surprise that pickmes like pakichan want us to read porn of women being objectified instead of yaoi.

No. 284609
>>284556Traps are a male fetish first and foremost because as it is it's always borderline pedophilic and based on a fantasy of a cumslut little boy being the perfect lover to a faceless self-insert MC, i.e. modern day pederasty or then a "i-it's not gay but it's different and exciting because she has a dick" setting. BL has its own crossdressing trope but in works like Lala no kekkon it's used more as a tool to underline how beautiful and delicate the man is that he passes for a woman.
>>284579What makes it particularly tone deaf is that Aidens are more similar to yumes in behavior than fujos as they fully self-insert and demand top surgery scars and vaginas on male characters all the time while writing down their lewd sexual fantasies of personally being pounded by their fictional husbando. Fujos are observers, not participants.

abusive piece of shit. I don't know if it's meant to be some kind of a power fantasy for women to imagine themselves to have a body like that and getting turned on simply by the thought or something. Either way yeah it's garbage.

>>284685Seriously, any time they try to make a josei protagonist more tomboyish, androgynous or at least not super ultra femme she gets shot down immediately for looking "like a man" and "ugly". It's so tiring, and exactly why them calling fujos misogynists is full on projection.
>>284686Well said. This is honestly why I can't get into femdom either no matter how much all the seething antifujos try to claim it as the best feminist porn out there. Good point about women having much more variety too.
>i remember this girl who i knew was straight, with a bf, saying that you're supposed to look at the woman in the porn not the manI know so many women like this, in porn they just focus on the woman because they've been groomed to only sexualize the female form through a male lens, the only time they can feel satisfied is when the woman turns the participating man on. Can't count the times I've heard the "women just aren't visual like men!" excuse defending this shit.
No. 284711
Alright I'm only replying now because I saw some retarded takes here from the first page and even some things are are straight up lies, I promise this'll be my only post in this thread about this. Sorry to interrupt.
>>284579>Aidens colonized BL when it got popular on TumblrAidens were normal women and girls once. If you had been a fujo 10 years later you would've been one of them, most likely. It's retarded to think this is a problem that comes from the Aidens and not a problem with society.
Also, Aiden fujos already existed in Japan. One of the many reasons women might be drawn to yaoi is that they hate the way women are depicted everywhere and treated like an object in both fiction and real life, hell the reply chain to your post is literally about that so don't try to deny it. By extension this means that some of those women are going to hate being women, and yaoi/BL only leads to them idealizing male/male relationships enough that they'll want to become men. If you think Aidens in BL fandom are a new thing you're a fucking idiot, many young fujos in the 2000s and probably earlier already wished to be men, they just didn't know trooning out was an option. And in Japan there have always been actual TIFs into yaoi, it's not something new or western only, nor is it just a problem with individual girls who are "mentally ill", it's a problem with the misogyny that we all experience. If misogyny wasn't so rampant in all cultures maybe BL wouldn't be as popular as it is now, because women wouldn't see a need to create stories where no women are sexually or romantically involved. And if you think self inserting is so bad and shameful that you think it's an insult to say Aidens are fujos that self insert so you try to deflect by saying they're not true fujos, maybe that's just your problem, I personally don't think there's anything wrong with it and even in these threads there are fujos who admit to doing it.
And no I'm not calling all fujos Aidens like other posters do, I'm just saying the truth about Aidenism and yaoi, so you have no reason to feel offended as this isn't an attack against you (or an attack against anyone really).
>>284586Nice cherry-picking the one example with a bald monk, meanwhile you can't criticize this
>>283580 It's literally the same kind of shit only one of them is from a BL manga.
>People dont give a fuck at the fact that 90% of josei content is drawn by menI genuinely don't know what you're talking about, as far as I know men don't draw josei. And I'm pretty sure the shitty porn you're referring to is not just called josei, I believe it's called TL or Teens Love, and most of it is drawn by women who have internalized the moidgaze and don't know how to draw porn without focusing on and pornifying the woman the most. But it's not drawn by men at all except maybe a few examples of moidporn someone is trying and failing to pass as TL by using the wrong tags on DLsite.
Also stop giving Pakichan so much attention, she's clearly obsessed and addicted to imageboards. You know what she says is retarded, you don't have to come up with equally retarded accusations against otomefags or yumes or just any woman who prefers straight content like saying we all like shitty TL manga with malegaze (even some of the women who read that crap online complain about it, but they think it's better than nothing).
Literally just ignore Pakichan, treat her like a retarded underage poster, report her for not remaining anonymous and move on.
>>284588Not saying this kind of manga is acceptable femgaze material, in fact I hate it, but there here are plenty of examples with hotter guys than that. A lot of the guys in TL manga look just like any other bishie, even like BL characters. On the other hand, BL sometimes has male designs and art that are just like this.
The good examples of straight femgaze are very rare and hard to find unless you know where to look, and cheap TL manga is not it. Everyone who prefers het on this site knows that. And believe me, there are a lot of women who would like more female protagonists that don't look like a generic sexualized big boobs, thin, pale nice girl in their straight content, but they don't usually hang out in the comments section of these manga or aren't very vocal about it.

>>284706And if you look at shit like the tl;dr post above, it's pretty clear they're just overall uncomfortable with women liking BL but frame it as faux concern of it brainwashing them into trooning out and a symptom of structural misogyny, something to fix and eradicate from existence instead of being enjoyed. Hence the constant begging of fujos to stop indulging in this degeneracy and start producing "good straight content", as if it was the exemplary female end game to write m/f romances. While the traumatic misogyny plays a part in BL's popularity, the number one appeal is the all-female community creating a constant stream of creative content catering to women and women only. The truth is, even if we woke up tomorrow into a world of female supremacy, BL would still exist and not be replaced with straight content because it's an exotic setting for women of all sexualities and backgrounds to experiment in thanks to the invisible barrier of the characters being not women. They don't act or think like real men, but physically they're not women, men in BL are like a fictional masculine gender that doesn't exist in real life and that's not threatening to us at all.
To me it's always felt either like a deeply rooted form of jealousy of what fujos have (a vibrant community churning out more fanfics, fan comics and fanart than you could even dare to consume), insecurity over knowing how abysmally most straight romances are portrayed (no depth, pining, conflict, development or chemistry) or more commonly a complete misunderstanding of the genre and why so many women are drawn to it and having their opinion manipulated by the two aforementioned types telling them that fujos are all pedophilic Aiden egg NLOGs cooming to rape porn.

But it's not drawn by men at all except maybe a few examples of moidporn someone is trying and failing to pass as TL by using the wrong tags on DLsite.You are so biased that its hilarious, i literally consumed mostly josei so you dont get to tell me shit or pull this crap ''oh just because i dont like it its not that genre'', those stories are published and categorized as josei wherever you like it or not. Most josei is literal crap where the male leads for some reason all have the same mediocre faces with the basic black hair meanwhile the female mc's look like goddesses. With how basic the ML look like in Josei they look more like the MC than the MC herself.

>Kokoro o Korosu Houhou (freaking underatted, NBR brocest younger brother is a schizo who rapes his older brother and threatens him he will report him for rape since he us a minor if he doesn't do what he says. It's a twisted mess from the start till the end, the ending hits hard)Ten Ten Shiro Shiro (similar to tourou it updates very slow though)
Ogawa Chises short stories like Kusatta Rasen or Ibitsu (both incest dadson and brocest both have yanderes)
Ouroboros (webtoon, the yandere isn't the main LI but he has affected and fucked up mcs life basically. It's more psychological than yandere twisted shit, but it his hard)

Like I want to enjoy these stories as they are, not as some stupid power fantasy completely disregarding the other established character, hetbending shifts the dynamic entirely. I sure as hell love a
problematic couple in BL but the line is definitely crossed when they try to shill those fantasies into straight couples. Shit like that unironically

What everybody needs to do is sniping.
If a translator hasn't released a new chapter in months, snipe it. Do one single chapter, it's usually enough. Just use machine translations and learn basic grammar and hira + kata (not much work) to and edit the google translations. It doesn't have to be a perfect translation and chances are high that every MTL will still be better than most of the shit current fantranslators release.
The important part is that you snipe them. At worst you will only make them seethe, which is still a win in my book. At best they will release a bunch of chapters because they are afraid that you might steal their clout if you release more or another fan translator will pick it up.

It does have some het and the relationship between the two male leads does take a while to actually make itself apparent as romantic, but it's an interesting and very dense read.

>>286760>no pretending to care about dullard hetero shipsThis is what I miss even more than the Aiden infestation (granted, they often go hand in hand tbh). I hate that so many fujos have to cough up a straight and f/f ship that they like to "balance it out" while no straight/GL shipper is expected to ship a m/m couple ever. The only f/f ship that I will ever enjoy is me and my girlfriend and straight ships can entirely go to hell along with the PIV obsessed Aidens.

>>286760I finally decided to watch The Black Butler to understand what the good old fujo days were like for my autistic fujo friends and it explained a lot of what I have seen in those circles back then. For example, I never understood the weird hostility towards female characters and kinda got it where it comes from now as Black Butler barely has any female characters and those few ones are annoying or have no personality. Hell, it even had a coomer moment with a female character, why the fuck did they put it in an anime that no scrote would ever watch, it's literally just pure female gaze yaoi. I assumed they would put a decent female character in a show made for female auditory but they didn't.
It's sad that this hostility wards women in yaoi community never really went away, it's just now those fujos are tifs and hate non-troon fujos instead of hating female characters.
No. 286788
>>286772This. In my experience fujos are more indifferent towards female characters and ignore them for the most part or enjoy the rare well written one, but I've seen multiple hetship-oriented women being outright vicious against every female character who isn't their personal self-insert and specifically the ones that are GNC in a non-male gaze way. Their spergery is often credited to fujos because people traditionally brand any woman who likes an anime man a fujoshi, something that happens even on Lolcow.
>>286785Kuroshitsuji was published in gangan fantasy which is technically classified as a shounen magazine (very female slanted though), so I would imagine that the editors had their fingers in that mess. Back then fujo pandering series were extremely rare and practically nonexistent because everything had to have hollow female characters added in to satisfy moid readers, it's actually a very recent thing to allow shounen series to exist without a shitty forced female character nobody likes like Sakura in Naruto.

>>286788>women being outright vicious against every female characters that are GNC in a non-male gaze wayThis is bizarre to me, how can women like male gaze shit?

No. 286821
>>286785it's easy to understand why fujos would get annoyed at female characters getting in between their ship when in many cases 90% of the plot is centered around the two guys, they have the most development, met each other first, have great chemistry and then they suddenly introduce a random girl just to shove in a shitty romance. or she appears multiple times where she does jackshit as if to remind you the fact that she is the actual endgame and your fujo ship is just a delusion, don't get too attached. this is frustrating and used to happen ALL THE TIME at some point you could even predict who are they gonna end up with solely because they're the only girls around
hetshippers and yurifags also hate it when another potential love interest gets hamfisted in the story but you never see anyone criticize them! sometimes they even root for the random girl just to shit on the "fujo freaks" even though they'd also go nuclear if their ship or self-insert was cucked
No. 286827
>>286821>hetshippers and yurifags also hate it when another potential love interest gets hamfisted in the story but you never see anyone criticize them!I have a recent personal anecdote about this, in fact. In my fandom
(okay it's Genshin Impact) there was a ship
Zhongli x Guizhong that was really popular with hetfags even though it had barely any basis on any of the canon but people simply wanted to have their fantasy self-insert power couple since the male character was one of the most popular ones in the entire community, but later on it was revealed that the female character was heavily implied to be in love with another female character and vice versa. They fucking blew up with rage, suddenly it's just being platonic gal pals despite them having canonically been called soulmates when it's two female characters, after the shippers spent two years gloating at fujos shipping the male character in male ships that he has "a female lover". Oh and ackshually, you're fetishizing homosexuality and are biphobic too if you're not into this fabricated m/f ship.
Anyway, seeing that really made me realize how much of everything that they claim fujos do is nothing short of projection. The accusations of misogyny, possessiveness, fetishization, homophobia, entitlement, etc. I've seen hetshippers do that a whole lot more than fujos and being way more fragile about their headcanons yet their behavior is never seen as immature and poisonous.

>>287140NTA but I feel like there is a difference between dark romance and torture porn. I love dark, complex, and
problematic romances, but Jinx is just depressing. I'm literally only reading it because I want to understand the discussions about it in this thread, also the art is nice, and there is a small, small part of me that is hoping something drastic will happen to turn the tables and make the seme change his behavior. I want to see the seme display literally any other emotion than horny or angry. I like sadist characters but he doesn't even feel like a sadist, he's like a selfish animal that just fucks because he has to, the uke is just collateral damage.
For people who like it, is there any other appeal than just the well drawn sex scenes? How are you hoping it ends, are you rooting for them to stay together?

abusive romances, but i want to see the psychological degradation, you know? the bottom literally hasn't had any change in personality or mentaility despite being raped multiple times; the way he processes the trauma is nonexistent. i dont care what happens to him because he cant even stand up for himself kek. the entire thing is tropey though, and thats why i dont take it seriously. at this point im just reading to see how ridiculous and stupid the author is gonna make them act.
No. 287201
>>287182I sort of agree with
>>287200 , the way the bottom has absolutely nothing change in him despite the horrific abuse he's put through makes it satisfying to see the top slap him around a bit and hopefully make him grow a spine. I'm not a fan of those stories in which the cinnamon roll precious baby gets coddled and nursed all the time, I want to see an actual reaction and have him show some emotion. I actually like the top a lot and read the story basically to see what crazy shit he does next.

>>287212>>287215Honestly calling Killing Stalking a "BL" webtoon is debatable, it came off more as some fucked up crime story than a BL manga. It's made explicitly clear that Sangwoo is straight and obsessed with his mother (which he forces Yoonbum to be after kidnapping him) and Yoonbum is the borderline homophobic "got raped by a man so now he wants the guy he imprinted on to do the same" BPD-kun stereotype, it just has no other BL elements than male on male sex that's portrayed from a very unerotic angle. To me it's a very similar case as Litchi hikari club, it's a psychological thriller that uses homosexuality for the shock value so I wouldn't call it "BL". That's just how I see it, other people might have a different interpretation.
And no, the art doesn't improve.
No. 287269
>>287227What's meant here is the "raped until gay" stereotype i.e. that gay people turn gay as a part of their mental illness because they've been sexually abused by the same gender and are looking to relive the trauma to gain control, not because they're attracted to the same sex innately.
>>287228>>287263I would say that KS is more enjoyable as a psychological thriller than BL, but the story gets very repetitive very fast and none of the characters are likable. The sex scenes are very violent and uncomfortable, the character designs are pretty ugly, it's only serviceable for those who are looking for really dark things without much of a plot around them.
No. 287321
>>287314your analogy is just as shit lmao.
Did we even read the same story, what LOVE are you even talking about. Sangwoo fucked yoonbum and was nice to him in moments when he would hallucinate yoonbum as being his mother. Near the end of the story i remember sangwoo starting to be
abusive towards yoonbum again. There was no love, it was only one-sided from yoonbum.
Saying that yaoi is two moids being in love is just as retarded. The actual reason why it is yaoi is because of the sex between men.

>>287314Do you think any form of media with male on male attraction in it counts as "BL"? Is "Misery" a great love story? There's a certain framework for the genre that sets at least some expectations and standards. I don't know why people get so butthurt over others considering KS to rather be a psychological horror story than BL when
even the author said it's not a BL comic and doesn't want it to be considered as such. It's not like BL doesn't deal with dark themes, I like them too and Harada and Asada Nemui are both really popular for their works, but Killing Stalking pretty clearly has the happenings of a crime drama in its focus instead of developing a relationship between two male characters. Yoon is said in the story to have BPD which makes him obsess over his favourite person and Sangwoo is just fucked in the head treating Yoon as a stand-in for his mother, the sex scenes like already described are portrayed in a very violent and ugly way emphasizing Yoon's pain, their relationship doesn't exist as anything else than a mentally ill co-dependence.
No. 287395
>>287370Kek you're in the lolcow fujo thread and thinking that anons here are these ""puriteens"" living inside your head because they, don't think babbys first edgy thriller is a BL story even when people are saying they're perfectly okay with dark themes in what they consume. Nobody's saying it doesn't have gay sex, denying that the characters can be shipped or even calling a bad manhwa, it's just questionable if it can be categorized under BL when even the author straight out said that wasn't her intention. No idea why you're taking that as such a personal insult.
>>287392Like
>>287342 said the story is much more about the protagonists and their respective pasts than relationship they share. As for their relationship, Yoon first considers Sangwoo his savior because he's mentally ill and breaks in to his house to rub his face against his stuff, Sangwoo sees his opportunity to have this lunatic be the target of his rage, it ends with Sangwoo never having loved Yoon and instead treating him as some sort of a ghastly image of his mother and Yoon having developed an even unheathier obsession because he's been conditioned to believe that he can't survive without him. Their relationship doesn't go anywhere because it's not meant to, the story focuses much more on the crimes Sangwoo commits and exploring why he and Yoon are like they are, plus the police investigation and the officer struggling with his career. Both Sangwoo and Yoon are self centered and don't really "love" each other but instead project their personal needs onto each other as a cope for their past trauma. They don't really have a relationship besides the other one being a perpetual punching bag for a psychopath with terminal mommy issues. It's more of a character study than a story about men developing feelings for each other and that's literally how Koogi herself described it as. It's not one of those "I can't call this a BL because otherwise no publisher picks it up" situations but more of her just wanting to write a psychological thriller.
No. 287416
>>287395A character study can still fall into the romance genre, and BL can encompass a story about characters pasts within it. I really don’t understand your point at all, not all BL are about loving relationships and it doesn’t have to be, but this isn’t a story about two singular characters who interact a few times. They form an
abusive relationship and become codependent on one another and are constantly fucking, it’s a BL. If the author thinks otherwise she’s delusional, which wouldn’t surprise me considering how shit awful and poorly written KS is.

>>288195>it's uncritically stated that alphas are naturally more talented and competent than omegasAs someone who reads a lot of omegaverse, I would say it's not often the case that it's presented uncritically. In fact, one of the most popular and common types of omegaverse story that gets rehashed often is a guy who is popular, talented, and successful finding out he is an omega, challenging the idea that only alphas are capable of being that way. I'd say there are actually very few original omegaverse stories that play out with a simple strong alpha and a simple meek omega, many authors use the setting to actively make points against discriminating based off of gendered sterotypes. Maybe if you're just reading pwp they lean more heavily into uncritically seeing omegas as breeding machines, but in any story based omegaverse, I think there is a lot of space for nuanced stories.

And even if some works are meant to be compared to real life issues the reader can choose to enjoy them for the smut alone. It's fine.
I don't understand why people try so hard to justify and warp why they read something to a retard who clearly can't understand how fiction can work. And it's only when it's BL or other female interests too.

You really don’t have to spend money on most joseimuke games to actively play them so long as you’re not a huge fomo sufferer. People just get caught up in wanting every single card of their fav characters, that’s where money is really spent.

Anyone played Slow Damage? I picked it up recently because of all the hype and good reviews I saw surrounding it, and honestly, I'm not impressed so far. I think the translation is the most off-putting thing about it. I had no idea the original was actually written in third-person POV, and for some reason, the people at Jast Blue translated it into first-person POV. I thought the writing was clunky, but when I saw how it wasn't even supposed to be first-person POV, it made sense why. I have nothing against first-person POV and think it can work, but it needs to be extremely well done and executed by someone who knows what they're doing with character voice.
The fact that the Jast Blue people just took third-person POV and translated it directly into first-person POV is baffling to me, because the POVs are not that interchangeable. There's details you'd put in third-person POV that you wouldn't put in first-person POV, and vice versa. I feel like I'm missing a lot of context to Towa's original characterization because of this. Towa's characterization comes off as annoying to me because of how his thoughts are narrated in first-person instead of third, and some of it seems unnatural at times.
My other issue is the slang and text talk in actual dialogue lol. Just why? I'm no expert at Japanese but I can tell from hearing the voice lines that what the characters actually say are not matching up with the dialogue in the text. And some of the slang used is either stuff I've never heard before, or stuff that feels like it will date the game instead of letting it be timeless.
I'll be continuing the game, but I'm very disappointed because I had high expectations based on all the reviews of people hyping it up. I'm sure the original game in Japanese is great, but the translation is definitely souring my experience, and I feel bad knowing that what I'm reading is not what the actual writer intended. From what I can tell, the translations for the other N+C VNs were fine, so why did Jast Blue mess with Slow Damage's translation like this?
No. 289305
>>289300I’ve noticed this a lot in more recent japanese to english official translations. It’s almost like they don’t take the work seriously because it’s anime and think it only appeals to terminally online people, so they translate it with a lot of awkward internet slang and gen z humor. It degrades so many works and seriously affects how characters are read.
As for why they put it into first person POV, I can only imagine it’s because third person VNs less common than first person dating sims in the west and maybe they thought it wouldn’t do well? Was DMMD in first person? I can’t even remember that far back
No. 289312
>>289300>>289305I haven't played Slow Damage (yet?) but I remember finding the twitter accounts of some of the Jast Blue VNs and they were taking that shit way too seriously. As in, they seemed very pretentious about how localization is an art and you wouldn't understand it unless you're fluent in Japanese
they're all most likely N3 or some shit. They acted like wannabe writers which would be fine if they made good translations but I guess that's not actually what happened kek. Like instead of saying
>I used the word "fuckboy" in that sentence because idgaf it's close enough to what the sentence means in Japanese" they were posting shit like
>well, actually! I used the word "fuckboy" because in English there's no direct equivalent to what's said in Japanese and I personally interpret the character as using this type of language because it's MY interpretation and my interpretation is important! Because I'm so important you guys! If it weren't for me you wouldn't be able to read that VN, btw we're not gonna translate Lamento despite advertising it for months/years on our online store because fuck you I guess!!!I blocked them so I can't find their usernames anymore but I'm sure if you go to the Jast Blue twitter account and lurk a little you'll see some of them.
No. 289313
>>289305I have noticed the translation problem you're talking about in anime, but I don't understand why translators for a VN like Slow Damage feel the need to do this. I'm paying for the experience of reading a story; I'd prefer if it was as close to what the original writer intended as possible, without any of the translators' biases. I understand that sometimes you can't translate things literally and there are metaphors/idioms in Japanese that wouldn't make sense in English, so you'd need to find the English alternative that conveys the same meaning, but at this point the Slow Damage English translation is just adding shit that wasn't even there in the first place and warping the characters' personalities.
I also would like to know if DMMD was originally in first-person. If the fan translation was in first-person POV, then maybe the original was as well? I feel like the Jast Blue team made the decision to translate Slow Damage as first-person instead of third-person because they wanted to capture the same hype surrounding DMMD and its success in the western fandom.

In Nii-chan in particular, it made sense because the reason she approached the main boy in the first place was for a cover relationship to have people leave her alone. She was really cool.

>>289771>>289775Niichan is one of my favourite works from her and I love how Maiko (the main girl) was written in it, and her being revealed as a lesbian looking to cover her own sexuality was a great move since you don't see lavender marriage being represented that often even when it's the reality of gay and lesbian people in Japan. The menhera girl was really funny and I like that she made a cameo in Happy Shitty Life.
>people speculated that Harada was a man because of how openly misogynistic the pedo guy wasReally? If people can't separate the twisted morals of an emotionally damaged and traumatized character from the creator they should stick to watching kids' shows only. I figured that he was coping with his homosexuality with misogynist thoughts, the guy literally was terrified of kissing his boyfriend in public after being subjected to literal conversion therapy by his parents who iirc blamed his disinterest on being molested as a kid.

Ciel won't live long enough to celebrate his 14th birthday but given that the twist with his twin brother happened since then I wonder if she wanted to trick us into thinking our main character will die at the end, or if she meant that the real Ciel already died which would mean we still have no clue how the story is going to end for the MC. And we need to know wtf his real name is. I had the guide book long ago and the names she thought about tended to be French and related to the sky although I only remember "Astre", and there's a flashback where Vincent says something about his children's names being more modern that the average male noble's. But then again, I also said she doesn't see to give a fuck about spoiling her own manga with the whole undertaker = Cedric = Ciel's grandfather thing. Who knows. I could post an entire essay about that manga and all the hints we have so far, but even then I have no clue what could happen.

>>291431Yeah the stuff with Tanaka is such a big mystery.
I know a lot of people think he’s going to be Polaris, but I’m not really into that theory. It seemed more like he just always knew Ciel took his brother’s identity, which I guess wouldn’t be surprising since he spent the most time with oCiel. Pic related was always such a weird panel though, so curious what he was going to say about rCiel Pretty sure Yana intends to have Ciel’s contracted fulfilled (dies before 14)
but I’ve seen a lot of people say he’s going to be merged with rCiel (one has a good body, the other has a good soul) to make a full singular Ciel, which might be a loophole for actually killing himI’m also convinced Yana is never going to reveal oCiel’s actual name No. 291438

>>291433Yana kind of sets up the fake Ciel's real name to be plot relevant somehow though, but again, we don't know. At the same time in many mythologies and religions, names are extremely important, knowing someone's or something's "real" name means you have power over them, and since Sebastian signed a contract with him, I'm sure the fact that he at least knows his real name will be very important for his own plans. I guess it's why it's also important in Death Note and in other stories I've read before, and why religious people will tell you to not say God's name in vain if you swear for stupid shit, even though we don't know the abrahamic god's name anymore.As for that page you posted, that's exactly why I'm sure Tanaka knows something very important. I doubt he's Polaris but if he knew him from their job at the manor or even before that I wouldn't even be surprised. The twins already saw a bunch of brutally murdered people before that so I doubt the scene he was hiding was that gory. But the fact that he was attacked from the back after turning in the fake Ciel's direction and yet he survived could mean a lot of things. He's a very strong fighter but that's not enough, I bet he was just talking more or less normally to whoever was there and that person stabbed him in the back to hide their conversation or relationship because a witness showed up. I also doubt that whoever killed almost everyone at the manor did it just to sell the children to a sect. I'm sure it has something to do with the family's role as the royal family's spies, especially given how suspicious queen Victoria was acting when she heard about the zombies and how it was hinted she will probably want to create an army of bizarre dolls to fight Germany during WW1, or probably just to resurrect her dead husband just like in season 1 of the anime. By the way in hindsight I bet the first season didn't come up with everything original in it, I wouldn't be surprised if Yana told the studio a lot of the ideas she wanted to use for the manga to give them inspiration for the original plot lines. Kind of how the first FMA anime had an original plotline after following the first volumes of the manga, but the mangaka gave a shit ton of spoilers to the studio of chapters she didn't even draw yet at the time to give them ideas of what to do and what not to do.

I always thought the idea that rCiel contracted a demon previously for the manor murders and that the demon returned because he was brought back to life was a fun theory tooI’m dying for the story to get back to Ciel and Sebastian, Yana loves to plant little hints but I feel like all of the side character stuff has killed all the fun theorizing.

>>292082A lot of anons on this site do this, too. Do they realize they're using the same line of thinking that tranny groomers do? Jesus Christ, I just like drawings of hot guys. I have zero interest in cutting my boobs off or growing a pube beard.
Why the hell do women's hobbies have to be scrutinized so hard? Why does everything we do have to be a reflection of our character? Men can enjoy things on a casual, superficial level. Why can't we? Anons will call themselves Radfems and then immediately turn around and scream at other women for being "coomers," as if looking at drawings is in any way comparable to men throwing money at a billion dollar industry that films actual women being raped. Bizarre.

>>292049Me! I am really liking it so far and am a few hours in. I prefer it over Slow Damage at least (my favorite was Rei but his route was horrendous). It has a blend of fantasy, adventure, military, and horror elements. It'd be good for someone that's been wanting a slightly tragic, story-orientated, and low-nonsense BL VN. I also like all 4 characters even if some are plainer than others.
However I finally hit the first character's romance arc and it's rather awkward/rushed feeling and makes me worry about the actual BL parts. Also, it seems to have very few choices.

>>292120honestly 'bl' itself isn't being normalized, just gay romance. i feel there's a difference between something utterly soft and normie like given or heartstopper vs fujoshi staples like, a harada manga, or a black butler doujinshi. the bland shit is what's becoming normal and touted as the "standard" and even worse, the "ideal" that all bl should ascribe to. as for danmei…
i dunno, i can't bring myself to care for danmei. something about the aesthetics turns me off. and cultivation's dull to my brain, i just can't get into it

>>292185BL is definitely more popular now cause of korean manhwa. When I used tiktok, I saw lots of posts about Jinx, Painter of the Night, Mad Dog, Yours to Claim, etc. with 100k+ likes. Imo it's a different fanbase from Heartstopper, Young Royals, etc. The latter fans are the ones who don't shut up about having good rep in media and wholesome storylines.
>fujoshi staples like, a harada manga, or a black butler doujinshiStaples in what way? Harada is infamously avoided by plenty of fujos who don't like rape/incest/age-gap storylines and BB doujin is as much a staple now as junjo romantica ie no one is talking about it in 2023. What's the "standard" for BL readers is more what I wrote above, basically kinda trashy binge-able stories, not necessarily soft stuff. Same situation for rofan and isekai.

As a decades long BL manga reader I finally read my first MXTX danmei recently and wtf, it was so great. I was avoiding them for so long because the fans are so fucking annoying (still true, I looked up some fanart while reading and immediately saw some people being obnoxious as hell and mischaracterizing things; how did niche chinese fantasy erotica get so popular in a time when BL is so hated? A lot of the fans seem young too, I'm kinda shocked because these books are pretty fucking dense, do they just skip to the romance scenes..??) but the story itself was really good and definitely scratched an itch for a longer, slower romance. Also I have more respect for chinese fujos after learning that they risk getting arrested for privately publishing their works.
My biggest criticism of the actual work (and danmei so far, as well as part of why I avoided it in the first place) is that every character looks the fucking same. Every time a new character was introduced I felt like his physical description/pics included of him was exactly the same as everyone else around him. I can't tell you fucking people apart.

>>292223>Harada is infamously avoided by plenty of fujosThat doesn't mean she's not a staple author. She's having exhibitions in Tokyo that are heavily marketed, she has won multiple awards for her work, her series have been localized in multiple languages and she's applauded as one of the most iconic BL mangakas of the decade. She got hired to do character designs for non-BL multimedia projects. Just because people who like softer works don't read her mangas it doesn't mean that she's some underground player who hasn't caused waves in the community. Even fujos that normally don't like dubious consent have liked her creations because they're just so well written with relatable characters.
>>292323>how did niche chinese fantasy erotica get so popular in a time when BL is so hated?I think it's because there was a very aggressive effort to gentrify BL and make it palatable to the masses but fujos were yearning for more "
problematic" content and Danmei delivered. Slow burn has also been extremely popular recently and danmeis are known for that, and I think it also plays a part that there are so many bilingual English/Chinese speakers (compared to English/Japanese and English/Korean ones) who were able to adeptly translate the works and make them accessible to everyone.

>>292135If they're such radfems I think they shouldn't give a fuck about fujos abusing fictional male characters. Most of them are just mad that they can't self insert as a girl and that's why they're forcing the "fujo to troon pipeline" meme about fujos being Aiden eggs dreaming about getting pounded by a hot yaoi hand seme. Which has ironically enough been a traditional scrote cope since the 90's.

>>292309>>292342AYRT and yeah that's why I asked what they mean by staple. I agree Harada is a huge name in BL (nii-chan is my fave of her works lol) and the dark themes she explores are commonplace in the genre. I just think there's also plenty of fujos that respect her and love the genre but stick to lighter themes. But I think I misread them and they're just saying that new BL fans are defining BL incorrectly as "fluffy gay romance" and still judging everything else. Which is more of the same moral policing as usual.
So I kinda still half agree, half disagree. BL is more normalized now at least in that less women are calling it fetishization of gay men and are understanding that it's a genre by women, for women. It's not just fluffy romances that get popular either and more ppl get annoyed when someone yells
problematic. It's also just objectively more popular cause of longer running BL manhwa that get more traction than single volume manga. But Western fans still argue about why separate ship tags for top/bottom exist for instance, showing a lack of understanding for the cultural context where these works are being created and where the fandoms started.
It's not an issue exclusive to BL, cause like Western shounen fans will debate about MHA "sexualizing teens" whenever Momo is in her hero suit and say fan service is a problem in the genre ("why is no one talking about this??"), when it's a staple. Doesn't mean that shounen anime isn't more normalized and popular now tho, compared to ten years ago.

>>293317Nta but I think anon means self-insert in the more literal sense of shipping yourself with a character or creating an oc who is ostensibly you to ship with them. Tired of people saying fujos "self-insert," when what they actually mean is "projection." It's true that many fujos project onto one of the characters. It's common, but it's not universal. I personally tend to gravitate towards ships involving two characters with very big personalities, and it's kind of hard to project in that instance without bastardizing the characterizations I enjoy. I've also never been big into super femmy or neotenous ukes (no shade if that's your thing, though.) I want to look at two sexy men, not one sexy man and a weird quasi-pubescent bobblehead creature.
That said, I'm also wary of NLOG fujoshis who hate ukes so hard they meme themselves into exclusively liking hairy baras or 3DPD. Not that it's bad to enjoy those things either, I just think that sometimes the fujos who say stuff like that have bought into the "muh fetishizing gays," shit and now feel morally obligated to only enjoy m/m stuff made by and for scrotes. Tailoring your own interests to be as palatable as possible to your critics is a losing game.

Semi-related and a bit of a rant but it’s annoying how some people will accuse you of being a fujoshi for liking bishie/handsome characters and it’s usually by sexually insecure scrotes who feel threatened by how attractive they are or women who are guilty about their own sexuality and feel the need to put down others to feel special. Whenever men look on women for liking attractive male characters they either say shit about how said character looks like a lesbian/troon or act like they’re being left out, like anyone wants to stare at some crusty receding hairline having ass scrote.

I don't find little girls in anime that cute but I guess Japanese fujos genuinely think they're adorable. I also wish the children were older than toddler age.

I'm not into incest, shota, or rape, just BL.

>>294216I mean. I'm fine with dubcon. Like my threshold for what I think of as rape in yaoi mangas is pretty high, if that makes sense.
Also there's plenty of BL mangas (even explicit ones) without rape, tf are you talking about. I can't say what the ratio of rape to non-rape is for the above mentioned reason, and I don't doubt that it's really common, but saying that rape is a HUGE portion of BL sounds a lot like the kind of talking point people who hate us use.
No. 294221
>>294216Gotta love how people in this thread keep saying stuff like father/son couples are the backbone of BL and that the entire genre centers around rape. Like
>>294219 said dubious consent or dubcon is something that's really common (the "oh no, I shouldn't do this but it feels so good" thing) in BL but outright rape isn't usually shown as something that's erotic compared to moid media which indulges in graphic violence against women and coincidentally they often make the "yaoi is just rape porn" accusation to devalue the genre and make fujos seem just as bad as your average male coomer getting off to loli rape. Even in darker mangas rape (rape, as in violent sexual abuse) is generally portrayed as a traumatizing event, not something to be seen as erotic.
No. 294224
>>294219Romance genres are always going to have a lot of grey lines for a lot of different people. Some people like certain fetishes and others don’t. You can personally dislike something without telling everyone else to agree with you. I’m sure most people would agree they only like things like rape/incest/whatever in certain contexts, and not all the time. Dubcon is a great example of how people have drawn a line where they are and are not comfortable with rape in fiction.
Liking BL really shouldn’t be this serious, find a community of likeminded people and enjoy whatever you want to enjoy. Stop worrying about people who don’t even like BL to begin with.

honestly i can enjoy incest/pseudo-incest, age gap and father/son-like relationships (like OP pic from shapolang
>>283524). it's not something to own the SJWs and not a fetish either, just something i can find interesting. i also like shota in certain situations, for instance i like shota oni and think it's a pretty wholesome BL despite the age gap. gore is fine, so is dubcon. i'm okay with rape if the plot is meant to be fucked up from the start and simply portray a
toxic abusive relationship, but if the pairing have nice chemistry and they suddenly pull a rape scene out of nowhere it's jarring and makes me not want to root for the couple anymore
after all it's just fiction and doesn't really reflect on someone's morals and values unless they're extreme lolicons/shotacons with folders full of this type of explicit art, then yeah in my opinion it's clearly a red flag

What was the ship or series that got you into BL?
I had literally never thought about shipping two male characters together before I watched Hetalia. I was young and sheltered at the time, I only ever saw/shipped hetero so my third eye burst open when I started considering gay ships. Durarara and Shizuo/Izaya came quickly after.

>>294849>>294854Not the anon you replied to but my problem is when they shit up this thread by their retarded bait and never get redtexted to indicate that they've been shut down. They come in doing that same song and dance about the essence of fujoism being pedophilia and incest (because Kuroshitsuji existed), how fujos are "just as bad as scrotes" (needs no explanation), and how pure-hearted husbandofags are (like openly fantasizing about being violently raped and killed by their husbando) or literally never have infights (besides arguing about how obsessively dedicated you have to be to a bunch of lines on a paper) and samefag replies to keep it going for god knows how long, and when they're done they go bump that retarded thread to keep the cycle going forever. I just wish mods interfered for once because it's obvious it's like two or three obsessed bitches doing it but I guess they're as understaffed as they are.
>>294859I can't recall which ship exactly got me into BL because it was a slow progress but Kurogane and Fai from Tsubasa Reservoir chronicle was definitely one of the earliest ones. I wonder how many girls CLAMP singlehandedly made into fujos because I remember them putting a lot of BL elements and themes into their works way before BL even became popular in the west. Kek I wonder how well Vic Mignogna's little "I called CLAMP and they told me Fai isn't gay" stunt would go these days.

>>294872NTA and as someone that likes
problematic BL (incest, shota, abuse, etc) I think that anon is completely
valid in not wanting people to misconstrue her interests. I am a person with very thick skin when it comes to fiction (its not real so idgaf) who can read some of the most insane dead dove shit without batting an eye, but also, there are plenty of BL that aren't like that and it isn't indicitive of the genre as a whole these days. I also love fluff and unproblematic stuff and think that some people cannot simply develop a thick skin when it comes to particular upsetting topics.
However, I think to be a responsible adult online is to accept some people in your online circles will be into some weird shit and they can't change that, so I agree with you that she will probably just need to get over it eventually. But as one of those weirdos, I think it's important that we don't force everyone to be like us. I also don't want to be misconstrued as well for simply reading made up stories, and I also don't care if other people read or don't read them so long as they don't think I'm insane for liking it. I want to advocate for the right for women to make art without restriction. Not everyone needs to like it, so long as they don't immediately try to crucify us or instantly peg us being evil for portraying upsetting topics in fiction.

>>294878I never said all of it, I said it was an undeniable part of it. If you don't want to be associated with it at all, it's better to distance yourself from it. Being into high-school age minors in particular is an extremely common thing, so much fujo stuff takes place in school.
>>294883She is
valid, but she can't deny that people will always judge her based on the worst parts of the fandom, or claim that those parts don't count. The normal thing to do in that case is ignore the haters, not cry about how you are different and totally not like these other fujos. There are other communities where she can do that, I know a lot of discord groups and whatnot don't let you post minor characters. She needs to go there unfortunately, not complain here.

And true, they can never name these supposedly popular and numerous shota rape incest works, the best they can do is reference some degenerate trends from 4chan or mangas from the mid 00's that were already scandalous when they came out. All the best selling BL titles of today are about two consenting adults with some dubcon elements at best, I should know because I'm into varying amounts of dark themes and I can't find shit these days.
>>294883I think her issue isn't about people liking something she doesn't but like she said it's that people act weird about it, either accusing her of being a pedo or a prude depending on the side.
No. 294935
>>294923Nobody was actually saying that, you should have just specified that by "adults" you meant "minors that I find acceptable" instead of actual adults.
But anyway, actual shota IS thing that exists in fujo stuff, and women oriented stuff in general. I don't mean the porn itself, but the characters, who are created specifically to appeal to people who like them, including those who will sexualize them. And it's the same for anime and manga in general. If you've ever been into a big franchise that has characters from all ages (like kancolle/touken/genshin), you'll see that it includes loli/shota characters. And them being sexualized is something that happens all the time.
To be clear you don't have to like it, or defend it. You can complain and tell people they have shit taste for liking it. But pretending it doesn't exist and that it's only a couple of
problematic fujos who are making us look bad in front of the oh so normal anti-fujo miners is such a dumb, dumb thing to do. Honestly nobody cares.

I haven't at all consumed any other kind of porn in years now because for some reason I like it when some story is attached?

So like. Kawoshin gets a pass for instance, because the characters have teenager-y, post pubescent bodies. Ciel isn't shota and I wouldn't consider him such, but he's too prepubescent-looking for my personal taste. So my personal cut-off is somewhere between the two. I guess a good example would be Kilugon, which I ship but have no interest in seeing smut of because they're on the borderline of being too childlike. Also the anons being replied to in these posts

>>295158I… don't read it to see people in distress? That's just not my kink. The only time I enjoy pain being inflicted on a character in yaoi is if they're hurt by an antagonist and comforted by the love interest later. That's why I put up with the gangrape scene in Yoru and Asa; I didn't like it, but I liked the characters comforting each other's trauma later in the story. I don't despise stories with rape in them if it's a plot point, I just don't find it sexy. Idk.
I'm not trying to shame anons who like that stuff. I jokingly called it degenerate, but yaoi is degenerate in general lbr. I'm just saying that it would be nice if I didn't get screamed at for not being into it personally, or screamed at by people who assume I like it when I don't (although the former bothers me more than the latter because it sucks to be berated by people who share your hobby.)

no one's posting nsfw shota in here and I'm going to continue posting non nsfw shota whenever I feel like it regardless of what mods choose to do. this board is too dead for this shit. it isn't possible for more than giga autist to feel this strongly about hypothetical shotafagging, numods. stop acting like fucking trannies and let us cuddle our cute shota posts as we fester in this hospice.(cringe)

for future generations in the pozzed timeline, never forget that idia shroud is a degenerate pedofork who
>made a sex robot of his dead baby brother to the utter disgust of everyone in his life
>developed complete codependence on it, brings it everywhere he goes
>was planning to kill himself the second he found out his real dead brother was chilling in hell with the phantoms the whole time so they could have gay ghost sex forever
>only postponed killing himself because shota sex robot reminded him how badly he wanted to see how made in abyss ends first
>made a furry skin for shota sex robot
>is a massive weeb and furry, feline beastman race fetishist
>male anachan
>started nitpicking rook's nasolabial folds as the man attempted to save him from a horrific death by arranged marriage
>only noteworthy relationships established in the three years since he started school were with 1. a small, moist gold digger with massive tentacles he would gladly shove up idia's bony ass for pocket change and worse body dysmorphia, 2. the most groomable, prepubescent boy in the entire school, 3. the least groomable but 2nd most prepubescent bodied "boy" in the entire school
they may try to delete the evidence but neither disney nor the mods can delete reality. yana can't mask to save her life.

>>295372Not saying it doesn’t happen but I’ve personally never seen it happen, and if anything, I see people like you shitting up threads with the out of hand /muh feelings/, foaming at the mouth over imaginary pedos over and over across every single thread. Any suspicion of a nonna being a shotacon gets her dogpiled and any thread is derailed to infinite, aggitating even more people from all sides.
but because you reminded me I never actually see shotafags being unapologetic, behold, my favorite shota. He really grew up into the average gay male predator which is hilarious.

>>295392it's mostly normies that never even use /ot/ and /m/. they probably don't understand the shota issue is barely an issue (or is more the infighting related to shota, and not the shota itself) and think people are posting hardcore porn or something

>>295448It's an astroturf.
BTW, you can vote as many times as you like in the poll through VPNs kek (I voted through a VPN). Only some get blocked, meanwhile there is a gazillion free ones that are not.
This is my pet conspiracy theory: the owner(s) of the site want to go mainstream and to attract advertisers they want to purge the site of anything advertiser-unfriendly, like 'weird'/'obscene' content. The shota discussion you're seeing here is just them sockpuppeteering to 'highlight the problem' and create the impression that it's an issue that causes infighting and thread derailment. They specifically chose strawpoll because it's so easy to vote multiple times.
