Half the comments here are basically, um you see the japonic skull…
yeah its like, idk if it’s breaking news to anyone but western culture is also pedophilic. not just in the velvet dungeons of the elite cabal, but in the culture consumed and reproduced by the whole social order. sure the exact form that tendency to sexualize youth, naivete, and vulnerability takes, and the attitudes and emotions surrounding it might be different, but it’s clearly there.
Capitalism. Which one is gonna be more willing to schill out for merchandise? The normie or the sexless sex-obsessed guy thats being constantly had the heel of capitalism turning them into ground meat with no time to live for himself beyond cheap and easily accessible escapism?
It’s more or less the same marketing concept that uses kids shows to sell kids plastic toys and the shitty microtransactions in video games, and gambling. Changing out the medium in which you’re being rinsed of your cash of course.
Pedophilia is very common and especially common in Japan
Apparently the people who dunk on capeshit are constantly watching pedoshit. Stop telling on yourselves :disgost:
I swear anime never used to be this bad, like, there was pedo shit but it wasn’t every single damn anime doing it.
Now it’s everywhere and has even taken over franchises that never used to be creepy pedo bait.
Dudes are always complaining that it’s the woke mob and feminists ruining pop culture but honestly, I think it’s horny dudes that have ruined Japanese anime and video games by being okay with the creepy pedo shit.
What used to be a niche part of Japanese media has become all of Japanese media.
Honestly this can be observed in the post 1980s market crash in which financialization of every aspect of a product became especially essential in a crashing market with lower and lower returns; and so sexless creepy pedos are more and more wiling to buy legal CP and adjacent items and such to build literal fucking shrines of (again look at how much plastic anime crap is oriented around owning your own small legal little waifu or some shit).
