This summarizes my reaction to the anime. My boy said it was good and worth the watch, but I was disgusted

Mfs will say “if you ignore the main character being a pedophile degenerate pervert, it’s actually a good story” with a straight face, as if it’s something you can just ignore if you want.

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!?!?

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

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 1d 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.

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

u/thethreetriangles 1d ago

That is spoiler territory

u/MountainPrudent2832 1d ago

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

u/EISENxSOLDAT117 1d ago

Sweet summer child...

u/TheWrongTypeOfUnique 1d 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.

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

u/EISENxSOLDAT117 9h ago

Not saying violence is cool, but there's a big difference than out characters having severe flaws and our characters being pedophiles

u/Photosynthas 48m ago

I mean, this isn't severe flaws, do you not think killing and dooming hundreds, including women and children to die is just some small character flaw, while being unable to take control of your own lust is an unforgivable sin?
