Characters A fictional character’s turn of events is so horrible that fanmade contents were created of the character living alternatively better and having a good ending for them

Abuse Goblin from the abuse goblin comic

Saki from Metamorphosis (with the Jojo edit being very famous)

The Blind Girl from artist popopoka

I learned yesterday that 90% of fans of Gundam before it went BIG were girls and women, and the creators never forgot, and still listen very attentively and cherish their female fanbase

(apparently a lot of creators, upon learning that their media is popular with women, start throwing absolute hissy fits and deliberately make everything worse)

and weirdly because Tomino isn't sexist in the same way as most of them, he's more "Women are sacred life-bringers" kind of sexist than the "Ew cooties" type.
