ok so I dont remember if this was an anime or manga but hear me out
there was a bit in the story where the protagonist's mom got like help from a priest and he was actually a cult leader, and he took the mom, son (mc) and like idk his friends to the cult (it was a dog worshipping cult) and I think there was also like a journalist who tried to find out the truth and got nailed to a cross???
I dont remember much, but the children in the group got stuck in a room or something with like the other children while the adults were together, maybe the girls and boys were split up? I dont remember

it's about the harem drama but the main girl is a bit separated from it
imagine my shock when I open Netflix for the first time in 6 days and the first thing that pops up is my neighbour totoro
how did Netflix snag 7 studio ghibli releases of all things oml
well they did say:

Pretty sure there was a lot of ass kissing involved, but I personally don't think Netflix had to do much.While they're hugely popular ghibli hasn't been all that active, and what better way to get more western exposure than partnering up with one of the biggest streaming service. Wonder how Disneys coping with this tho. (⌒▽⌒)
So whenever I see people complain about shoujo they complain about the FLs, and that its just annoying and I dont remember what else they say but ive never seen a story like that so can someone show me those stories, with the annoying girls and the pure shoujo terrible tropes something something...yeah
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/papillon/
Basically all characters are annoying except for one
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/heroine_shikkaku/
^also this ugh its making me remember how annoy i was with the fl
Annoyed**
The FL always ends up having the same personality in almost any Shoujo manga I've read and after some time it just gets "annoying" - either she screams around, throws a tantrum or cries around and is stupidly naive and "innocent" - it just doesn't appeal to me anymore & I stay clear of them most of the time. I mean I just can't see why the ML would fall in love with the FL or the other way around the FL gets picked on harshly but she still stupidly falls for the a-hole and ignores the nice 2nd lead. It's not just the FL that ends up being annoying but the Overall plotline since you can practically guess what happens next and it's being made obvious
*sigh* ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Some shoujos I started but dropped (can't remember if it was only cause of the FL ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭)
