What’s ur opinion on Nii-Chan?
I know it’s a pretty controversial manga… also why did it get removed from this site? I just gave it a reread, I loved it in 2020 and I still love it now. As someone who experienced csa and Stockholm syndrome, I love reading csa media and I feel like Nii-Chan is prob one of the best written ones out there.
I feel like a lot of ppl argue that it’s romanticized bc the abuser and the victim actually end up in a relationship, and view ther relationship as “normal”. But that shit really happens irl, so I don’t get why depicting that makes it romanticized. Also I heard that it’s also considered romanticized bc it had intimate scenes but I’d argue that there’s a contrast in all the intimate scenes, the scene where Yui was a child was not a very detailed scene in comparison to when Yui and Kei r actually tg and it’s far more detailed. I think it reflect the shift in their dynamic, although their relationship is still fucked up I think it’s interesting.
I also wanted to bring up the intimate scenes bc ppl called Harada a shotacon bc of the rape scene when Yui was a child… but it wasn’t even detailed, so im confused on how she’s a shotacon for that and the scene that depicted Kei’s experience w csa also wasn’t detailed.
Harada does gloss over a lot of topics in her works which is very questionable, but I haven’t seen any evidence for the accusation of her being a shotacon beyond Nii-Chan… which doesn’t even romanticize csa so I just want to know if there’s any actual substance behind that accusation besides Nii-Chan?
If not for this topic being raised I wouldn't even know there was a CP wipe lmao and I'm a frequent user too. Anyways about Harada and Nii-chan, I honestly don't hate them. I'll be the naysayer coz it's very lopsided to opposition here. I don't think Nii-chan is romanticised but it's not "realistic" either -- never a good depiction, material or ref...... reply
