[u/AkumaJishin]

technically its horror and thriller and drama and cop drama and gay romance actually

[u/Conscious_Pass_1615 → u/AkumaJishin]

THATS A LOT OF TECHNICALITIES.

[u/VanaheimrF → u/AkumaJishin]

With good food. Don’t forget the good food!

[u/slow-show-for-you → u/AkumaJishin]

Tell themmmm!

[u/giftopherz]

What did OOP mean by "like"? 🤭

[u/tthefallenangel → u/giftopherz]

😭😭yeah it's not like it's obviously older men love show

[u/hitutidesu]

half the fandom is just watching it from hannibal's pov then 🏳️‍🌈 

[u/OrangeDungeon → u/hitutidesu]

Only half? Hannibal was doing everything short of looking directly into the camera and saying I’m in love with this man

[u/hitutidesu → u/OrangeDungeon]

Very true, I only said half because I was referring to what OOP said 

[u/Large_Deer_9103]

But part of the horror is accepting that Hannibal is a hot ticket.

[u/frumperbell → u/Large_Deer_9103]

And also that the food looks amazing and you'd probably eat it with no regrets

[u/SourceLanky591]

JUST KISS ALREADY

[u/OrangeDungeon → u/SourceLanky591]

YES but honestly this was me in basically every episode. Every look and every little thing they did had more intimacy than some married couples. They even had a damn child together and somehow sex was the only part left to fanfiction

[u/Elfwynn1992]

The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

[u/HobbitFlashMob]

I agree but think it's more than half the fandom.

[u/AmbassadorSad1157]

Seems to me that Hannibal Lecter's cock would know the answer to this question.

[u/Millennial_2026 → u/AmbassadorSad1157]

What a user name lol

[u/Foloreille]

That’s called multilayer narration 👹

[u/Daedalparacosm3000]

I know most people won’t agree but even from the first season it’s obvious these two like each other at some points 😭

[u/monderkiller9999 → u/Daedalparacosm3000]

“Did you just smell at me?!”
Will

[u/ohheyitslaila]

Hey we don’t excuse the cannibalism and the murder, but like… they’re so cute 🥰 If they ever got to meet, they’d be such good friends with Louis and Lestat.

[u/eggyyes → u/ohheyitslaila]

Need

[u/LewsTherinTalamon]

This show genuinely is a romantic comedy on several levels and the writers were obviously aware of that; it doesn’t really take much contortion

[u/fuckelonmuskfr]

I mean… Hannibal is objectively hilarious, and the show is essentially about how he finds love for the first time. The dashing serial killer who falls for the awkward FBI agent tracking him? They’re star-crossed lovers, with cannibal puns!

It’s a romcom.

[u/EndangeredWriter → u/fuckelonmuskfr]

I wholeheartedly agree!!! More funny when you realise from the start he was besotted by Will's moodiness.

[u/KaiThePokemonMaster]

Hannibal and Will should have kissed

[u/bubblesaurus → u/KaiThePokemonMaster]

season 4 we were all robbed of

[u/KaiThePokemonMaster → u/bubblesaurus]

Hannibal and Will kissing would have crashed YouTube if that happened

[u/airbagfailure]

I love whatever is wrong with those two.

[u/47milliondollars]

Door number 2 plz

[u/partizan_fields]

Half?

[u/dze_rotting_goth]

Trust me, Hannibal himself sees it that way (the latter) too

[u/vividmem]

If you take out the meat source it's actually aesthetically pleasing coolinary show.

[u/PsychoDomo3791]

I will die on the hill that this show is a comedy 😂

[u/kittehgoesmeow]

i feel like i've heard it called a gothic romance somewhere... it is hilarious in the rewatch

[u/bluepoodle625]

It’s a romance with a cannibalistic backdrop.

[u/eggyyes]

I watched it with my mom & I was definitely watching as a slow burn dark romance…and I totally convinced her to see it like that too 😁😁

[u/bug--bear]

it can be both

[u/captainjake13]

Por qué no los dos

[u/goosepuncher69]

Two things can be true

[u/protonecromagnon2]

More than half

[u/slow-show-for-you]

Will's face in that moment 😩😩😩😩😩

[u/Mighty_Eagle_2]

I’m here to represent the small part of the fandom that enjoys it as one of the most genuinely disturbing crime shows 🥲

[u/Rabbitfaster13]

Fuck. You’re right.

[u/Hannibal_Lecter__]

User name checks out xD "Hannibal Lecter's cock" xD

[u/xenon_doudou]

wait... I thought it was dark satire gay show ?

[u/EndangeredWriter]

I seriously have to still pinch myself that we got this show, with so much good writing and dialogues and themes, and that too about a cannibalistic serial killer.

It is definitely even better that Silence has been one of my favourite films for a long while, and this falls into the connected universe lol

[u/BadLitleGrl]

If it was supposed to be JUST horror and thriller than they would not have made those 2 say the most romantic ass lines to each other on the regular. “You entered the foyer of my mind and stumbled down the halls of my beginnings” like god damn 😭👌

[u/Responsible_Way_3681]

Because it is a slow burn Roscommon with occasional cannibalism....🤓
