unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 1 day agoI cant answer your question, but i agree that the casual rape often shown in anime is a big issue. I get that its realistic, but man do the authors and studios do a shit job at integrating it into their stories.
A really bad case of this was Tengoku Daimakyo / Heavenly Delusion where the main character got raped by one of their most trusted friends and while there was some degree of revenge they didnt even kill the fucker. The worst thing tho was that there was zero mention, discussion or anything of it afterwards. It was just just treated as if somebody slapped them and then everything moved on. And 5 minutes later their traveling companion decided to confess his love for them… So weird.

Now I’m happy that I dropped that show early on.
I don’t mind dark and gritty, but I very much mind it when there is a prolonged torture porn to make make something dark & gritty. We got it the first time, the girl is mistreated and raped for her entire life. No need to show it a second and third time. And really no need to throw in the miscarriage to make it even darker. We would have looked forward to the revenge part of the story without this already. Writing like this pisses me off so much.
