tht post... i mean, all the replies are like "yes this is because of the DIABOLICAL PURITEEN ANTIS" but even for relatively uncontroversial ships, they're pushed down, bc there's an insistence on ""Canon Ships"" and also gay ones lol

like narumitsu -> langworth. krisnix doesnt suffer this problem as ive seen but maybe im wrong. but even when ppl are allowed to ship either of those, there's an implication that it's only okay for the 7 yr gap, until phoenix and edgeworth Both Realize that they were MEANT to love each other, bc narumitsu is the ultimate ship. which is crazy. Cus like what if you just don't gaf about narumitsu.....

or klapollo lol. god forbid you ship claypollo. THOUGH again this might be less of a problem. i do distinctly remember ppl saying childhood best friends were sibling coded so you cannot ship. which is Puriteen Nonsense but im pretty sure just comes from "klapollo is the Ultimate Ship you cant ship anything else".

it makes sense to me ppl not rly rocking with narumayo or justicykes or wtfever because weird little age gaps like that arent In right now... gumworth i think has that problem too but it also has a few really good artists drawing for it which makes it acceptable Also it isnt straight lol

shit like miego and klema/skyemadhi suffer bc they are m/f and therefore Illegal. this is something i'm guilty of too but again this isnt rly a STINKY PURITEEN thing because m/f ships arent a crime, theyre just like, unpopular rn. still i can recognize it as being unjustified. miego esp is like, a key part of mia's story, if you're into exploring that thing... which is why the only miego content i see nowadays is From ppl who respect mia and want to explore her character. cool!

...but really, the truth is that this "popular opinion only" thing extends past ships. god forbid you enjoy dual destinies or spirit of justice bro youre told theyre the worst games that arent worth playing at all and u really should only like the Good and Perfect trilogy/tgaa (SHOT FOR MAKING EVERYTHING ABT SOJ) But like!! it's the same trend! "these are the popular opinions so you have to agree with them, on some level, or else you can't Play With Us." IT'S SO WEIRDDDD WHEN WILL IT END BRO
