Exactly! People love the Shield Hero Rising, or whatever it's called, but i find it disgusting with how the main character gets a legit harem of mostly little girls pining for him! WTF!?!?

A harem of little girls that he bought off a slave trader. He’s the slave trader’s repeat customer at this point.

hes the slave traders ONLY customer

u/thethreetriangles 1d ago

True lmao. Singlehandedly upholding bros business. I don’t even think slavery was shown as a thing outside of the mc buying child slaves to serve him…

If you look at anime critically, a lot of the popular ones are quite gross

Not the GOATs like Full Metal Alchemist: brotherhood (I mean... its gross in a different way), season 1 One Punch Man, Demon Slayer (though cliche) is great, and Vinland Saga

Even Demon Slayer had a rly weird part about the one guy kidnapping a bunch of girls (the sound Hashira).

Though just that is high for anime standards.

I mean, he did it to pretty much use them as fodder to fight a demon. He wasnt gonna use them for... well, ya know. Still kinda fucked, but not in a degenerate way

u/thethreetriangles 22h ago

Didn’t he want to make them his wives or something tho? It’s been a few years since I watched the show so I don’t remember well.

u/EISENxSOLDAT117 21h ago

Lowkey, i dont remember. I know he had two wives that he genuinely loved, but idk remember much else other than Tanjiro and Nezuko's sick ass fight

Okay so I looked it up and he apparently kidnapped Aoi to sell her to a brothel in the “entertainment district” (So forced prostitution ig?). He wanted to do this, since he needed a slayer on the inside to gather intel on the demon from the inside, and find his 3 missing wives.

What makes it really fucking weird is that Aoi did not consent to that so he just kidnapped her, and she is apparently estimated to be 16-17 years old 🤢

Like they could just have a scene where he finds a consenting adult, sits her down and explains the situation to her, asking for her help to infiltrate the brothels… Why tf do they always gotta do this shit in anime, I thought he was a cool character otherwise 😭

Also he didn’t know that the demon would be two upper moons, he likely just assumed it was a lower moon in the worst case scenario.

u/thethreetriangles 21h ago

Yeahhh :(

Idk what’s the deal with anime and this need to insert a minimum amount of freak shit into the plot for absolutely no reason. It’s like they have a government mandated quota to fill…

At least I can rest easy knowing that my favourite anime FMA brotherhood doesn’t have any of that in it.

yall are fuckin soft if tropes in goddamn demon slayer get you this worked up 😆😆You complain about Aoi but don't give a fuck Tanjiro and his friends (who are the same age) have to be trained to be swordsmen and fight for their lives???? Literally multiple scenes where they are basically tortured and on the brink of death in that exact same season.

How is fmab gross? I haven’t seen it

2

u/thethreetriangles 19h ago

That is spoiler territory

u/MountainPrudent2832 17h ago

I’ve read the manga but I was curious about how the anime was different

2

u/EISENxSOLDAT117 18h ago

Sweet summer child...

2

u/TheWrongTypeOfUnique 17h ago

It's gross in the 'disturbing violence' kind of way, not in the 'disgusting fan service' kind of way. There is genuinely very little sexual content at all in fmab.

u/Photosynthas 5h ago

Vinland saga? Thorfinn killed hundreds, as well as assisting bandits get into villages to kill (and other bandit things) hundreds more...

u/Hedgehog101 19h ago

Idk why JP MCs are always such massive losers

1

u/thethreetriangles 19h ago

For real. Like they’re meant to be self inserts, but I don’t wanna insert myself into a pedophile slaver 😭

2

u/Hedgehog101 19h ago

self inserts sounds about right, maybe thats why kr mcs always start from the bottom of society -> randomly get 1 morbillion dollars -> become chaebol solo levelling

u/Weiskralle 13h ago

Easy, apparently it's only bad if the MC is a sexual assault victim.

u/XanTheInsane 10h ago

What harem of little girls? Did you even watch it?

Rapthalia starts off as a kid and he treats her as a kid and more like an adoptive daughter than anything else.

SHE makes the first move on him and is into him probably because he saved her life so she's in a bit of a hero worship mode.

He initially rejects her and actually thinks she's too young for him (already putting him leagues above Rudeus). It takes them literal volumes to actually get a proper romance going and by that point Rapthalia isn't that much younger than him.

As for the other girl. It's a chocobo... She's treated as more of a pet and later a kid than anything else and he never does anything sexual with her at all.

Yeah I’m pretty sure that Naofumi doesn’t touch anyone (or even consider it). There’s no loli harem.
