>>19444I agree with you, but the animes in that image are particularly "bad" because they have strong female leads, nagatoro being the most obvious and the komi the most subtle. anime male protagonists are, in general, allowed to be bland and weak, as long as the female counterparts are even more shy and timid, and the protagonist is able to "stand up" whenever the plot requires it
but having strong female leads is specially emasculating so the authors have to either go even greater lengths to prove that the male protagonist is actually strong and reliable, or fully embrace the
humiliation fetish (sometimes they do both but it doesn't really work)
anyway my point is that, in this case in particular, the problem isn't romance but
figurative castration. the average power fantasy isekai where the main character is basically omnipotent usually includes romance and otakus don't have a problem with that

As for the shows, I personally found some amusement from Uzaki, but Nagatoro is trash (see

I've been a Naruto fan for years, it is literally impossible to go to a site or forum and not get at least one response going on about "le narutards". Does it annoy me? A little, but at the end of the day I don't give a real fuck because, unless the person has a valid argument or cutting commentary, it's meaningless. The OP image makes a succinct point with the post stating an honest, cutting remark about the genre of cheap, aimless SoL being bait for people that are essentially "bitchless", it's true, that is the demographic it is meant to aim for, regardless of if others outside that demographic also watch it. Being offended about some guys off-hand post in the depths of twitter only implies that you feel called out, because subconsciously you may think it's true to you. You want to prove them wrong? Don't make rants on the internet about "le mean toxic males" and just ignore people, like any mature adult would.
TL;DR: Normies and anime becoming more mainstream has introduced a bunch of n00bs that are incapable of accepting that a show they may enjoy is objectively trash, and can't stop caring about the opinions of others instead of enjoying the guilty pleasure and accepting that, like junk food, it's not really good, even if it's pleasing.

>Selfish love is very far from unselfish, mystical, or romantic love. One can love every possible thing, not just human beings, but any “object” at all (wine, one’s fatherland, etc.). Love becomes blind and crazy through a must taking it out of my power (infatuation), romantic through a should entering into it, i.e., through the “object” becoming sacred to me, or through me becoming bound to it by duty, conscience, oath. Now the object is no longer there for me, but I for it.>>Love is a case of being possessed, not as my feeling—as such I prefer to keep them in my possession as property—but through the alienness of the object. Thus, religious love consists precisely in the commandment to love the “sacred one” in the beloved, or to cling to a sacred one; for unselfish love, there are absolutely lovable objects for which my heart is supposed to beat, for example, fellow human beings, or the spouse, relatives, etc. Sacred love loves the sacred in the beloved, and therefore also strives more and more to make the beloved into a sacred being (for example a “human being").

There are many decent romances out there, made by both male and female, and many that are appreciated commonly such that it is difficult to notice much stigma nowadays, but the amount of anime productions that is "pure wish fulfillment" is not the most preferable. Classic shoujo should have some sort of comeback!
>>19445Those female leads of the anime in the O.P.'s image in question are more what males, in their current gaze, imagine to be "strong" female leads, but are not necessarily strong female leads in reality; similar to the overly servile types of female characters, such "strong" characters are made for some predominantly male target-demographic and thus ultimately still subordinated to the male consumers' desire.
There definitely are many good female anime-characters, but the ones, out of them, that can be said to be good as female characters uniquely or as decently feminist exemplars aren't easily found non-esoterically.>>19452Romance series for target-demographics of women are not very similar to those sorts of "romance" stories, similar to those in O.P., people ITT have critiqued, so the issue isn't very much misogyny.

why do i dislike romance animanga generally? i don't know why but I wonder if there is some connection to toxic masculinity for it with me. I can agree that for the anime community at large that it is definitely a factor but for me maybe it might be an influence on why i might dislike it but i feel the major reason why i hate media (including anime) with romance in it is the straight heterosexual stuff
even though i am straight i hate being projected into the male role of the straight romances because i don't know why i've just been like this for a long time. it's because in real life i don't want to be in a role like that (in a relationship) so i get very uncomfortable and want to stop watching it when it happens like that. i feel it more when the protagonist of the series is a male, as well, and they are also made to be a character that is easy to self insert to. That's the worst for me which is why i avoid that kind of animanga.
i hate the thing where sometimes there is a anime with a female character being all over the branding and stuff but when you actually watch it its a audience insert male protagonist yet again, frustrating for me and i wanted to watch it under the assumption the female character was the protagonist
i like romances that aren't straight and have gay characters because it feels l can't relate to it as much and therefore that means that i won't self insert myself into it. that makes it easier for me to enjoy the story because i am not imagining myself in a position i would never want to take the place in real life. It just disgusts me to think of being in a relationship like those anime characters.
regarding the toxic masculinity thing for me maybe it is tainting my view and biasing me against this kind of media

>>19444Urusei Yatsura, Your Lie in April, Tatami Galaxy, etc. There's plenty of well-respected romantic anime, including a lot of girl-coded stuff, and they even usually have an element of self-insertion or escapism to them. But they don't define themselves entirely around vicariously experiencing perfect love. That's the difference (and genuine question for people who think the image in the OP is wrong, how much of the audience for Komi-san do you think feels romantically satisfied in their real life?)
Whether it's in stupid harem isekai or throwaway high school romcoms, everyone realizes on some level that escapism – i.e., literally and deliberately ignoring reality – is not something that should be celebrated. It's surprising that in an imageboard for "leftists" no one in this thread has attempted to question the dynamic of studios making tons of cash by selling temporary relief from the crisis of loneliness that affects all demographics in current society
Instead of media that makes you briefly feel less lonely, why don't people make media that actually helps people -be- less alone? Media that shows the commonalities between people instead of encouraging misanthropy, that gives lonely people the courage to actually put themselves out there, that helps people understand each other instead of presenting idealized smoothed-over characters that don't resemble actual human beings? So much media today just feels like it breeds further isolation between people, why defend shit that encourages its audience to dig themselves deeper into the "2D>3D" hole?
