#Also Tori is an FMAB super fan

Thinkin’ bout Tori again. Got some headcanon thoughts....

I’m a weeb Tori truther, you guys know this, but with that comes thoughts as an ex-weeb who at the moment, vehemently despises certain parts of the anime industry and community. I often say gender usually has no bearing in my headcanons, specially with ellsworld, but this time I’ve got some thoughts.

Everybody is painfully aware of how anime, and especially the weaboo community itself, treats and portrays women. I wont discuss the nitty-gritty of this, as this isn’t the post for it, but keep that in mind.

I would guess, as a tween to teenager, Tori didn’t much mind all the weird anime bs that goes on in her favorite shows. Any ex-weeb will tell you that we’ve developed a sort of ‘fanservice filter’ so that we can keep our sanity intact as we watch anime when we’re tired of the fanservicey stuff.

Sure, maybe the fanservicy stuff might have even clued Tori into the fact that she could also possibly like girls, I mean who wouldn’t?? That waifu is cute and her fanservice is literally getting shoved down your gullet, hot damn!

Throughout the years though, she starts getting ‘veteran burnout’, in which shes pretty much over all the fanservice and has started to notice how unnecessarily creepy most of it is, and now that she isn’t a hormone riddled teen, she also notices how badly characterised and treated most women characters are in modern anime.

It’s pretty disheartening. Even her fanservice filter can’t save most modern anime.

She stops following modern anime before she even turns 22, and is just happy to revisit older anime again and again. She still has her figurines, and other such merch, but is pretty much a filthy casual now instead of a dedicated fan.
