/ YARIBU

Yaribu is cp, sure, and I have a hot take on it, I don't know how to organize this, so bear with the rambling.

We all know that the characters in the manga are around the age of 16, and the anime was made without consent and basically aged them down.
I think the manga was made by the author as a satire and it just happened to blow up? It's not like they are glorifying sexual harassment, but rather showing the absurdity of it.
Tiktok and Twitter encourages anyone to basically just... not watch or read it at all, and yelling at others who DO enjoy it to be glorifying cp, generally being a "bad person". Typical strawman argument. Imo, you can like media while knowing it is problematic. Fetishizing and glorifying it is another thing. If we stopped watching everything altogether because there happened to be some shitty aspects then I don't think we'd have any media to enjoy at all.

(One of the reasons why I'm just annoyed with people who disdain mangas like Harada's works with, for example, rape, that show the dark, shitty side of the world ; not talking about fetishism ; just because it has that aspect in it. They think everything should be sunshine and rainbows)
Personally rating media should be based on enjoyment, not on how happy it is from a scale of 1-10, not talking about people who just dislike dark stuff, they're fine.

Also, putting down others for liking it is indirectly putting down neurodivergent people who have a fixation for it, it's not like we can drop it immediately because we experience interests more strongly than neurotypical people.

If you absolutely hate people who genuinely like yaribu because it's enjoyable, then go on to jam to the anime op, fuck you. /hj

I think calling yaribu cp diminishes how bad actual cp is. Cp has real, flesh and blood victims and is in no way comparable to pixels on a screen. Yaribu is problematic for other reasons, but comparing it to something of that magnitude just to prove a point is .... 2 reply
