I Really Really Need Yall To Use Some Critical Thinking Right Now.

I really really need y‘all to use some critical thinking right now.

Like it or not, but „Made in Abyss“ is extremely successful and critically acclaimed. It’s not some Dark Web niche child torture porn. Most anime fans have checked it out at some point or another.

The story isn’t centered around child molestation. Children are the main characters and it’s a dark twisted story so dark twisted things are happening to them. Is it my cup of tea? No. I dropped it after a few episodes, though I can’t remember why.

However, a plot like this isn’t unique to this story either. Though dark in a different way, „Promised Neverland“ also had child orphans as lead characters and terrible shit was happening to them as well. I really loved that one. Does that mean I enjoy watching children suffer? Fuck no. I enjoy the plot and watching these kids overcome the darkness and the same seems to be true for most MiA fans. Now let me make it clear: I’m in no way saying PN is as problematic (it seems like the MiA author actually caters to the messed up subsection of the fanbase on bonus pages that don’t get published and translated), but simply pointing out that there’s been other popular horror series with child protagonists.

Is the author of „Made in Abyss“ problematic as fuck? It sure seems like it, but that shouldn’t reflect on his readers. I sure as hell don’t research the authors of every piece of media I consume and I’m pretty sure that goes for most people.

I‘m also not defending the p*dos in the fandom, but y’all, even My Little Pony has a huge chunk of those in the fandom but they’re clearly not a reflection of the entire fanbase.

TLDR: Don’t base your entire opinion on Twitter threads. Research the content you’re criticizing. Use critical thinking. Someone using big words doesn’t mean they’re right.

For reference, here’s the critical reception section of MiA‘s wiki page.

Best article I’ve seen on this ridiculous NON issue.

Thank you for that splendid read 😌✨

All amusement aside I really hope this doesn't stop Soobin from chatting anime during his lives, it's something he's passionate about I would hate to see him have to censor himself over this.

there is so much going on w soobin txt can you do true personality reading on him?

8 of Wands rev, The Moon rev, Queen of Swords rev, Page of Pentacles rev, Temperance rev, The devil rev, 5 of Cups, The Sun, The Chariot, 3 of Pentacles.

Ok the good news is, he is great on a team and can work well with others, he's determined and quite artistic and has a fun side.

Now for the bad news...

He can be pretty impatient, maybe even stubborn. He can also be quite immature and just doesn't care. The energy is just, meh.. He can be quite lazy and just sluggish in general. I'm picturing him lying on the couch being very unproductive. He can be really mean, brutally honest and just downright ignorant. He can be pretty cold towards people. He isn't the most balanced person and he can be quite negative. Is he narcissistic? He can be pretty cunning but is two faced attimes and doesn't show his true self.

if there is one thing on earth i won't do it's abandon TXT for a situation this ridiculous ya'll weren't fans in the first place

i am goddamn 31 years old and have been stanning bands since i was 12 old do you know what scandals i have witnessed this is laughable. they're reaching SOOO HARD.
