It’s sad bc of what Ash had to go through and in the end he dies-wtf u mean?? R@pe and abuse is traumatizing, not just Dino’s face..bffr
I mean it is sad but not that sad imo....
Fr it did hurt me but I didn't cry...
I guess for anime watchers it's one of the more angsty BLs that was animated but for manga readers banana fish is barely the tip of the iceberg ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Finally someone said it
At this point it just it’s just depends on what the viewers consider sad.
The reason why it was extremely sad for me was because I was invested in Ash’s character and his love life. Him falling in love with Eiji was so sad. We saw Ash get closer to Eiji and actually fall in love, which he had never done before and it was the only innocent thing he had in his life. (Ash dying before visiting Japan with Eiji made me extra sad ngl).
Not to mention that it was extremely disturbing when they went into details of what Ash had to go through.
Ex: forced into making child , sexually/physically/mental abused, r@ped, and etc. It’s truly disgusting knowing that his also happens in real life.
banana fish is lowkey overhyped... i mean ik that it's sad but it's not THAT SAD yall be saying shit like "this anime traumatized me" like shiiii what traumatized you dino's face? bc if yes then same, but fr tho banana fish isn't even allat
