what do you mean the japanese version is the only real, valid and canon version and can by definition only fit the characters better and be better than any dubbed version 😵

I sometimes get these videos recommended to me that's something like "Worst Anime Tropes" and they'll show some examples of these tropes and anime that exemplify them in the thumbnail. I don't watch these videos, because I think any trope can be done well with enough thought. But one trope that keeps coming up in the thumbnails is the "1000 year old loli" trope and they'll include a picture of Kanna Kamui from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.

I find this strange. To start with, the "1000 year old loli" isn't even an inherently problematic trope. In fact, one of the most popular anime of all time uses it. Pride from Fullmetal Alchemist is a homunculus that lived for hundreds of years masquerading as a child. The reason why people say that this trope is problematic is because it's sometimes used as an excuse to sexualize a character by claiming they're technically above the age of consent. But as we can see with Pride, that's not a guarantee.

The thing is, Kanna doesn't get sexualized. With Pride, his design being that of a child is meant to be ironic. He's a monster that takes the form of a child. Kanna, on the other hand, is just a dragon child. She goes to school, makes friends, and just has fun. She's very clearly written to be a child. In fact, her age literally doesn't matter, whether she's five, fifty, or five hundred, because she's very clearly meant to be developmentally a child. At no point is her identity as a dragon or her age used as a cheap justification for pointless fanservice.

Like, yes, technically she is an example of this trope, but so is Pride and they'll never use him on their thumbnails. The reason why they'll use Kanna, though, is because she's from a well-known ecchi series and they're banking on the idea that people who have never watched Dragon Maid and only heard of it will just assume that she's also the subject of fanservice. It's cheap clickbait.

really hating at the moment that i have the "canon is law and as such is only to be bent very gently, carefully, and with respect" type of brain, rather than the "canon is a suggestion that i'm choosing to ignore" type of brain

[trashcanwithsprinkles]

Do you have any Zhongli/Zhongchi fic recs? I haven’t found any that are nearly as good as yours 😔😔

funnily enough someone already asked this, but it was quite a while ago and tumblr is a mess to search old shit thru so here, this is the post this was asked during the ao3 crisis of- .......last year? i can't remember. either way, the post starts w me saying i don't have all the names and links but dw, after ao3 came back up i edited the post so you should see all authors and links in the recs.

i have to admit that for reasons unrelated to the fandom i haven't been reading many zhongchi fics as of late? so like- bear in mind i don't have an updated mental picture of any of the recs after the post was made. so if one went off the rails or if one of the WIPs finished, i'm not aware;; i also mention in the post that i'd add more recs if i had access to ao3 (which i didn't at the time bc it was down), and while that is true, it's been so long since i read any of them that i wouldn't be able to confidently reccomend them outside of 'i somewhat remember the plot and i remember liking it'. also i don't remember half of their names. so uh- yeah that's the list i think

This fandom is honestly...

Like, there is something to be said about fandoms in general and how they've changed as a whole generally but

There's also something about how the acotar fandom is especially toxic like

The idea that a post is surprised a murder hasn't happened yet and I found myself agreeing??? Is honestly telling

Like, also. A massive part of this is shipping and maybe it's because I have my corner of this fandom, but even then shipping the "wrong" thing in general has become something I honestly have to take in consideration when thinking of my mental health and if I can personally be prepared for any backlash??

This fandom at large doesn't feel safe and that's majorly concerning tbh

Maybe instead of saying shippers as a group are doing harm, we should just disavow harmful actions in general and not be complicit in it idk???

[fluxweeed]

hey. hope this message doesn't bother you. I love you. I love your work. you are one of my favorite fic authors, I am absolutely obsessed with everything you write. reread everything ten times over, drarry or not, fluffy or angsty - even when it absolutely shatters my heart (e.g. for lack of wanting, SUCH a great fic btw i'm so obsessed with it). the four doors? life changing. two to lie and one to listen? engraved into my brain for eternity. what's mine is yours? what a ride holy shit, im VERY normal about it. wrapped? my comfort read. and so it goes.

if I could aggressively smother you with kudos and love I WOULD!!!

awhile ago you said that there's no such thing as "big deals" in fandom and I 100% agree but at the same time you are a big deal TO ME!!! not in the sense of any kind of hierarchy but purely based on the fact that I think you are such a cool person and your writing is amazing and poignant and your presence in fandom makes it so much better. it's been a pleasure following you here on tumblr and just reading your tags and posts.

idk I just think you rule. that's it. thank you for hanging with us. MWAH 💛

ahhhh anon sorry for leaving this message sitting in my inbox for a couple of days but !! i have zero idea how to react to this!! you're so kind!! thank you!! please discard any and all inclinations u have that i am a cool person bc i can assure you i am NOT!!

[cheeseknives]

Instagram keeps showing me reels of someone with a handle named something like jamesmaythristtraps and like, they are truly doing gods work but I can't like or comment on these masterpieces because I know what kind of snitch of an app it is 😔

[pa-pa-plasma]

kind of frustrating that people took "fat does not equal unhealthy" to mean "fat is not unhealthy." sometimes being obese IS unhealthy & excess fat can cause a lot of problems. ignoring health issues isn't progressive. real "oranges kill people with depression" moment
