Dungeon Meshi fandom really exemplifies the shit I find most exhausting in fandom nowadays, where like... the correct way to interact with the characters is to abstract them out to their marginalizable aspects (their disabilities/neurodivergences, races, fantasy races also apparently) and be more concerned with what A Traumatized Brown Person saying to A Neurodivergent Person in this situation says and what that means, than just what the two characters say to each other.

Like, Kabru and Mithrun can't just be a ship, because you have to concern-troll about the optics of a brown man playing caretaker to a white elf(?). Or see basically any take on the Laios vs Shuro conflict (neurotypical person shitting on autistic man? Asian man taking it out on microaggressing white weeb?), or people getting tetchy about M/M being shipped at all when Farcille exists.

Like, how do you people live like this? It's unbearable.

Farcille being such a juggernaut is making me avoid watching the show. The ship sounds so, so boring and unless that's simply fandom making interesting dynamics boring for the sake of being wholesome and unproblematic as is often the case, especially with F/F, I am not going to ship it no matter how good the show is. And then fandom would get on my case for ignoring the F/F, because it's not enough to just not bash the things; ignoring a particular female character or F/F ship you don't like is the same as being a raging misogynist.

In the fic it's actually mostly a background pairing that I've seen (probably because like you mentioned we don't really get enough Falin onscreen to make it as interesting as a story.) There's lots of interesting fanart though at least if you're into monster girls at all. I definitely wish there was less moaning about fanwriters ignoring it, for sure.

I love Dungeon Meshi but the fandom has completely soured me on Farcille; I was already not that invested in it because I really struggle to find Falin interesting, but the amount of people who take the existence of any other ship--even ones that don't involve Falin or Marcille--as a lesbophobic hate crime are just unbearable. (I get the feeling sometimes that a lot of newer/anime-only fans must have mainlined a bunch of Farcille fanart before getting into the series and have convinced themselves that DunMesh is the Yuri Series Of The Century when it is...very much not that lmao)

Anyway! I'm a Chilchuck/Marcille fan, so I cope by staying in my lane and only interacting with people from our tiny-but-mighty Discord server.
