Can we stop this please?
Can we stop using “trauma” as a plot point in manga when you’re gonna make the MC forget about it in a matter of seconds?
Can we ESPECIALLY not make the MC get back together with their abusers?
I mean if the MC forgives them and all then yeah I get that because forgiveness can be a way for people to heal but now the MC loves them again?
Huh?
And the only thing worse than using trauma as a half-assed plot point is using trauma to justify the actions of an unjustifiable shitty character.
“What you’re a mass murderer who killed thousands of innocent people but you only did this your dog died and your mom was abusive? Aww I feel so bad for you sad boy”
I agree, this is why I never took serial killer or kidnapping/stalker yaois seriously because it’s so unrealistic and glorifying of the abuser x victim trope which in actuality is disgusting reply
I agree with you, but to some extent. It happened to me to read these exact types of dynamics, but in a certain context I find them "irreversible". Like, if you're reading something tagged as psychological, thriller, dark, horror, etc, it's probably gonna happen if a love story (an obviously problematic one) is included. In this case it doesn't wei...... reply
