Comment on Original vs Netflix vs Anime

  Is the Animé a flavour of “thicc girl encourages perversions of socially awkward horny boy”? Because that’s so blasé; it’s overused.

    Surprisingly no. Those 2 depicted are just side characters and actually have a somewhat healthy relationship. And the main cast is generally not that sexualized.

    To be clear, the issue you point out does exist, just not with these 2 specific characters.

    Not really. Guy in the bottom picture is a minor character. The show largely centers around a dragon girl (not the one pictured) who arrives at the human world injured, gets saved by another girl who works as a programmer, and then moves in as her maid out of gratitude. Dragon girl falls in love with programmer girl due to the kindness she shows her.

    Not entirely, that artist is also a confirmed pedo

      Sources? Have googled a bit and couldn’t find anything that paints the artist as a pedo.

      I mean apart from the depiction of the characters, which is really weak as a confirmation of anything, seeing as a lot of Japanse works have the same questionable aesthetics.

        I’m not going to search too deep for the sake of my own eyes, but had seen reference to their other works in a post on reddit that go beyond “questionable aesthetics” and into straight up ‘that is a child’
