Vespair@lemmy.zip 1 day agoHis channel drives me nuts because he’ll act like some anime is the lewdest, trashiest piece of smut he’s ever seen then you go to check it out yourself and it’s like, two brief panty shots.
Look dude, if I’m coming to restaurant called chez garbage, I’m not here for the slightly soggy fries appetizer

Sounds like someone I should check out. He’s absolutely right to call shit like that out
Anime has a pervert problem. Any other media would get raked over the coals for how much and how often the characters are sexualized, especially in stories where it doesn’t fit. I can’t But in anime, it’s just brushed off because its become so normalized, but it really shouldn’t be.
Think about this, other than porn, what was the last piece of non-anime media you’ve seen that featured a girl’s panties? Not a woman. Not an adult getting dressed. But an underaged girl’s panties. Because that shit is everywhere in anime, and it’s played off as cute or funny. It’s fucking gross.

Show me where I said underaged in my comment. We’re talking about legal smut for consenting adults, chill out.
And yeah dude, that would be fine if the point was to call out trash in anime, but it isn’t, the point of his videos is to celebrate the trash. We aren’t talking about PG-rated anime sneaking in gross pedo shit into their shows for children here (which is unquestionably gross), we’re talking about ecchi shows made explicitly for adult audiences with the primary intent to titillate.
It’s not like The New Yorker doing an exposé on the porn industry, it’s like the porn industry doing a sensationalized preview for a video called “Extreme Anal Nurses Gangbang 7” then finding out that the movie in question actually only features one nurse and she’s fully dressed the whole time.
Take your pearl clutching somewhere it’s at least halfway appropriate, please.
