I Love You!
uhm broski this is illegal site...
aint no author reading our comments
I would have loved to be able to agree with you, except that the thing is all these opening chapters of Season 2 were already drawn and completed since at least last year. So no, the story isn’t becoming more r*pey just because the fans are criticizing the r*pe, so yeah no.
Also, criticism isn’t the same as negativity, it’s constructive feedback. It just seems like some people can’t accept opinions that differ from theirs.
Seriously? I literally wrote "that's not how the internet works"
Other fans are reading, the ones who also leave hate comments on legal sites. This is a network; there's a chain effect.
No, I think the plot was already rapey, I think what's really happening here is that the plot is becoming lousy, since also no, the chapters aren't fully finished until they're uploaded.
I didn't say Hanse is reacting the same way as Oda, I said she's losing motivation. The story isn't as strong as the first season, because it was smashed too hard before, not on these recent chapters. So, maybe we can start trying not to destroy it from this point on?
Also, it’s not even about what’s good or bad, some moral debate, or whatever. It’s just that the chemistry isn’t there anymore, the s*xual tension between them is gone, so is the back-and-forth, and the things that used to make their dynamic so compelling have disappeared.
So yeah, obviously some people would feel disappointed and disheartened by it lol
Thank you, dear~
Yeah, so you have said many times.
But, dear, we’re not the ones destroying anything — the author is
I totally agree with your observation that comments here can sometimes discouraged other readers who still want to read the story esp. if the story is still not uploaded here.
No, dear, you're underestimating yourself and the power of a global network
And you underestimate the power authors hold over their own work. A global network can discuss, criticize, and have opinions, but at the end of the day, the direction of the story comes from the author.
Funny enough, authors themselves usually understand that criticism comes with creating something, it’s often the fans who struggle more with the idea that a work can be loved and still be criticized lol.
Ok, that's a good point. But I'm not underestimating the author, since she obviously had a strong plot and can create good art. But I'm also not underestimating her humanity, since she can be affected by cruel comments that are not productive criticism, something that happened too strongly during the first season.
So, while the plot was still doing its job before, already not appreciated by readers who had other expectations based on ANOTHER STORY (read: Red Candy), now it's almost... lost. That's sad. But once more, I'm not going to underestimate the author and hope they can make the story interesting again.
I think this is really interesting, not the story at this point, but the way authors react to how people take their stories. I think many of you have heard about Oda's reaction to fans calling One Piece sexist... and what does he do? Makes it more sexist. I'm not saying all authors reacts the same to negative comments, but I personally think the author has lost at least some of their motivation here. Even if the plot is still intact, it feels all over the place! That's true. I love this story. I love the characters. I love the art. And I hope people can keep their negative reactions in check, because it seems they're just killing the story.
It's fiction, and what really matters is not actually moral, good or bad, but being interesting or not. And unfortunately, I believe too many negative comments are killing its potential. So please people, back off, drop it if you hate it so much. You're ruining it for the other readers, and you're ruining it for the author, as unbelievable as it may sound! And don't say it's an illegal platform, the author doesn't care what we write here; that's not how the internet work.
