Here’s a good alternative to TV Tropes that people don’t talk enough about: https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Main_Page

Edit: the page for this series isn’t developed, but it exists. It was built up once, and it can be done again: Go give it some love.

Tvtropes has been shit for years. I remember when they cut like half the site, i think, because Google threatened them. I can’t blame them for trying to keep their ad revenue, but god damn the site went rotten after that even to someone like me who never used the forums.

Maybe this will renew the push for a better alternative, but i won’t get my hopes up.

Well, fuck them

Any site that bans an anime because of the girls’ ages in the show is full of hypocrisy. They pick and choose which shows and girls are inappropriate and aren’t consistent about it. Especially when they allow sexy shows based on real children (Cuties).

I think they’re doing a major disservice to actual victims by comparing them to cartoons. (emphasis mine)

Hot take: people who get upset over young characters in anime and compare it to pedophilia are actually the fucking worst. They don’t actually care about real children or real victims of real sexual abuse, they only want to ride their high horse on a bullshit tide of false self-righteousness. Their sense of indignant justice and ego is inflated further by not only looking down on the concept as a whole, but also associating all anime fans with it, and thus looking down on them too.
