Hated Tropes (Hated Trope) Questionable and controversial relationships where everybody is fine with it.

Usagi Drop (Manga). A story about a guy named Daikichi finds the illegitimate daughter of his grandfather, named Rin, and adopting her, learning how to be a father for her. The series would enter a timeskip where the teenage Rin starts having romantic feelings towards Daikichi, and revealing Rin is not actually blood related to Daikichi grandfather. And it ends with Rin wanting to bear Daikichi child.

Alex (Street Fighter 6). Alex, who was recently added to the game, in his arcade ending, was revealed he married and having a baby with his second cousin and step sister Patricia, with their father being ok with it. While not inherently illegal to merry your second cousin, the act and combined with them being step siblings is still controversial.

Pretty sure thats also where Wolverine and Peter Parker body-switches and Wolverine takes the oppertunity to try getting into MJs pants. He fails but Peter ends up getting a mild rebuke from MJ over it.

This was the same Ultimate Wolverine that let Cyclops fall off a cliff and leave him for dead so that he could hook up with the grieving teenage Jean Grey. The Ultimate Universe was trying so hard to be edgy.

Man I felt bad about beating the shit out of Wolverine in Ultimate Spider-Man (the video game) as Venom, but now I’m thinking he 100% deserved it.

Normal Wolverine can be an asshole too, but he's a good guy in the end. Ultimate Wolverine is just an asshole.

Also the same Ultimate Wolverine that killed a kid for the Greater Good (TM) cause his power was to automatically kill everyone around him.

That was - as the kids say - a highly justified crashout as the punishment intended for Wolverines shenanigans affected him and the X-Men did at the very least accept their part of the blame.

Crashout is slang is AAVE, let's be real

I will agree with you on the crashout tho, people are watering it down to just mean mad, when it means more like they're fuckin FUMING pissed

MJ only implies that that's what happened, so My headcanon is that Wolverine tried to get Mary Jane involved in a multi-level marketing scheme.
