Pretty much the first thing that happens in chapter 1 of original dragon ball when goku is a little kid is he gets shot by Bulma and it, uh, kinda stings. It’s not really high power level, it’s anything above absolutely pathetic power level. By dragon ball logic, basically every decent martial artist in the real world should be bullet proof lol
TERF neoliberal hexbear at that. They’re so far right, most of the people they align themselves with don’t think cis women are full people either. Their front page is usually just links to daily mail articles.
It’s really fascinating to me how a group of people can be so transphobic that it literally takes over their entire worldview, just completely rots their brains. One of my favorite chud sites to just scroll through and laugh at.
1,234 episodes
Fuck you lmao how dare they pull this shit
How many uninspired trash episodes did they have to pump out to get to the funny number
I feel like this particular problem is Konosuba’s fault. It just got really popular as a video game isekai and any anime that becomes popular defines its genre for the next decade or so.
I still recommend some of Lovecraft’s work, and Asimov’s, and other shitty people’s. But always with warnings, with the intent to discuss their flaws and the way those flaws creep into their work (or, sometimes, take over the work wholly) and the way that those works can still be valuable and cool and worth looking at despite those flaws in author and work.
The problem with Harry Potter is it doesn’t really have any redeeming qualities. It is, as you say, worth nothing more than good marketing. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone mostly just because they’re not very good, even with Rowling completely out of consideration.
If they were good? I don’t know, it’d be a different story.
