Feb. 6th, 2022 11:03 pmi've been doing 30+ (time exaggerated for comedic effect) hours of research into kanato sakamaki to figure out why people like him in preparation for writing fic and i think i can seperate his fans into two categories
> "he's just my poor little meow meow/scrungly son/i just want to pick him up and take a bite out of him"
> *insert incredibly lost-in-the sauce 89 page meta about the victorian ideal of the eternal child*

Jan. 28th, 2022 08:11 pmpeople who bitch (or rather, bitched) about dialovers fandom being full of rape apologists piss(ed) me off because. i mean. it's the whole "stupid girls who like dub/noncon vampire porn are brainwashing themselves into thinking rape is okay!" which normally i would hate and go "fuck off"
but. i mean.
2010s tumblr dialovers fandom was full of rape apologists, it's just that the rape they were apologizing for wasn't(AFAIK) in the anime so most of the armchair critics didn't care or know enough to criticize THAT little bit of the fandom

Apr. 6th, 2021 03:08 pm"An attractive anime boy with a ponytail, introduced in the second installment of a wildly-popular Japanese pretty-boy video-game series for whom a misconception resulting from a mistranslation lead large portions of the English-speaking fandom to believe that he was canonically a cannibal" is a description that can apply to two different characters that I know of.

Jul. 5th, 2020 04:54 pmi do agree with the Accepted Dialovers Queer headcanons somewhat (like yes! Shu's probably some type of Kinsey 5-6 guy! yes, Kou's got some weird gender shit going on and Laito's fucked dudes and Yui's a repressed bi) but like the way the fandom engages with them is so boring and boilerplate and AAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGG that I can't even engage with a lot of it
