Is it really a spoiler when something has been around forever?
Ok, so I’m the type that doesn’t mind spoilers. I can’t imagine how stressful my life would be if I lived in fear that someone might “spoil” something for me if I am not fast enough to read it/watch it/ etc. So my question arises from that thought, can you really blame someone for “spoiling” something that has been around for years? As an example, a lot of people are just watching the Fruits Basket remake, so they *dont* want to be “spoiled”, but the manga ended in 2006, the new anime is going to adapt the whole thing, meaning a lot of those manga-only secrets will be no more.

i’d say it depends on how popular the thing is. for example, we all know what happens to aerith in final fantasy 7 so it wouldn’t really be a “spoiler.” but if i’m in the middle a 90s anime that isn’t well known then i wouldn’t wanna be spoiled. reply
It doesn’t matter if it’s been around for a long time. Some people might not have known or heard about it so if you go saying stuff from that topic or whatever it’s considered a spoiler. I don’t really mind spoilers but there are a lot of people who would get mad from a spoiler especially if they are interested in the topic or thing . A spo...... reply
