if c and t wasnt so weird about trans ppl id be obsessed ngl

oh for sure that's in there, and obv i've talked abt that being a theme in c&t but like. so is cowboy bebop and also yu yu hakusho and also bleach and also ouran high school host club (oh GOD the stuff in ohshc) and many many more. but ppl do still actively love these anime and go hard in the fandoms and doing rewatches and shit While simultaneously knowing abt the shit that's wrong w the shows. but newer stuff either is viewed as completely Pure Unproblematic or The Whole Thing Is Garbage. and it doesn't get the grace of "this anime is really good and really enjoyable but there are parts of it that are stupid as fuck"

#like that would be a reason to not watch it if you know it's going to make you feel awful #but it's Not the reason why it doesn't have a cult following #otherwise almost nnnnnno anime... would have a fandom ever #except mushishi and that's IT #sergle answers #even mp100 had a scene that had ppl wondering if that was meant to be transphobic so mushishi is the only untouched one I fear #i'm not saying it's not a reason to dump on the writing for any given anime #but if anime lost its chance at being popular due to the presence of transphobia or homophobia or misogyny #then none of it would ever be popular. bc it's always sprinkled in #with either a generous or a gentle touch
