(Anonymous) 2019-02-23 11:37 am (UTC)(link)I will also forever be hurt by Omi's fate. My sweet baby Omi following his father's footsteps instead and retaking his old name left me with the feeling of 'there are always worse fates for characters than death.' Teenage me was devastated-and even now admittedly in my 30's it still hurts.
That being said, yes, the writing is absolutely awful. The concept is so good, but they have such weird world building, taking a very realistic premise and adding supernatural elements to it. But man, the characters were fun and those original designs were just awesome.
If it were modernized (I don't think it'll ever happen sadly) I wonder what ships would come of it. I can totally see the ol' popular Youji/Omi ship being labeled problematic-actually since Omi is originally 17, I can see everyone insisting you can't ship him with his teammates or you're a pedo. Ships between Weiss and Schwarz members would probably be considered supporting abuse.
...I really miss the old days of fandom, when I used to be part of this one.

(Anonymous) 2019-02-23 12:09 pm (UTC)(link)And yeah, Omi's fate was just... grim and depressing.
I wonder about the ships. Personally, I was always on the wrong ship back in those days (although Weiß Side B, the manga continuation, gave me all the Ran/Ken my shipper heart could wish for - only just a tad too late for me to still be super invested in the fandom). The juggernauts were Yohji/Ran and Ken/Omi afair, and even Ken/Omi would be a pedo ship by today's anti standards. Nagi/Omi was fairly popular as well and I can see that working in today's anti climate, but they'd probably turn it into pure gay softboi uwu stuff. To be fair, Schuldig/Ran was pretty popular and tended to be pretty abusive even back then but eh, ykinmk.
