This is why we hate new anime/BL fans. These newbies who are at 3 years in BL community ruin the fun for all of us.
Agree we learned from our mistakes too I mean i laugh at the things i used to read now thinking about how problematic they were but when i read them they were like a gem to me. Later i got to know what's my cup to tea and what's not. But harnessing someone who's work exist way before you exist is beyond understanding. Not that m saying it's fine but there are literally so many manga exist that are far more horrific in every possible sense but no one says anything about them. Ganbare nakamura is such wholesome one so it felt really unreasonable to question it just because he hirose had some admiration.
I think it’s bc the author actually drew art of them together and is apparently into these kind of relationships but yeah there’s too many authors writing weirder and more problematic shit to single them out and harass them over something that’s present in 90% of manga. My bottom line is as long as we allow Eiichiro oda to live then no one has any business criticizing or harassing other manga authors
All the controversy around ganbare nakamura kun going on author forced to delete their twitter and all and m thinking about all the unhinged stuff i read in the time when i was barely adult. Such as hitorijime super lover etc etc you know it. I don't think she deserves this much backlash i mean it came in 2000 i think. There are so much disturbing material available but people chose to target her because a teen in her manga admired his teacher coz he thinks he's cool and wanna be like him.
