Salty AF Munday Meme - [ ACCEPTING ] ;; ❥ Has someone ever ruined an FC or character for you?

// Yes. Fandom ruined Kaveh for me ( for petty reasons, but I stand by them ). Allow me to explain.

So, anyone who knows me knows I am a HUGE Baizhu lover. I don't get majorly defensive over many fictional characters, but I'll go to war over Baizhu because fandom was wrongly terrible to him from the moment his character first debuted ( calling him a p*do, calling him corrupt, calling him ugly, etc, when his CANON story explicitly states he is one of the purest, kindest people to date ). Flashback to his debut banner, where Kaveh was also featured for the first time, and the hatred for Baizhu escalated SO much to the point I felt like I was going insane just for loving him. It's like they couldn't just be quiet and pull for Kaveh without throwing in an insult or two about how they ' didn't care about Baizhu ' or ' this banner only matters because of Kaveh, ' after Baizhu wanters had been waiting for literal years for him.

I don't hate the character. He reminds me of Howl Pendragon, appearance wise, and is relatively well written. But the way fandom cherishes/worships him like a god and were so swift in putting down MY favorite character just... turns me off so much. Granted, G.I's fandom has a TON of faults and this isn't the first time they've done this ( and it won't be the last, I'm sure ), but... yeah. Just... sorry to the Kaveh lovers. The GOOD ones, at least.
