I'm not 'in the hatedom' in the sense that I don't like, put any energy into making teardowns (or time watching them) but OOOF I dislike it. It's a specific combination of loud, edgy, and ultimately shallow that I just find enormously grating, and extra frustrating because it's all happening within a premise that I would really love if the writing was better. And I'm pretty used to being the hater who can't enjoy things with weak writing and just shutting up when a bunch of my friends get into something that makes me sigh and think less of their taste, but there's definitely something low-key vindicating when there's a hatedom.

Honestly I think some of the scale of the backlash is just that it lives so online, and hatedoms for online things escalate easily once you've got a feedback look of emotional satisfaction and people trying to 'win'.

AYRT, I agree with you. I don't hate the show, but I agree with most criticisms. I wish executives intervened a *little bit* when it came to the character designs, because the colors are so same-y and look hard to animated. Whatever...

This kinda stuff isn't really new though, it brings me back to the anti-Twilight craze in 2007-2010. I thought the first book was boring, but I still weirded out seeing entire forums and novel-length "fix it" fanfiction about the series. I'm a gossip myself and can enjoy trashing stuff I think sucks, but when you're putting legwork in making "totally not fanart/fanfiction" about it... You lost.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as you, I find it generally obnoxious and grating. I find some of the character concepts and lore interesting, I just feel like I'm completely the wrong age for it. I was an edgy teenager with a DeviantArt account in the early 00's who rarely ventured out of a colour palette made of reds, pinks and dark greys, and if this had been around when I was 13/14, I would have fucking devoured it, made it my entire personality and plastered my walls with posters. But now I'm in my mid-thirties and it all just comes off as overly busy, look-at-me edgy and faux-deep. I don't know how the demographic skews for its fans, but I feel like it's targeted at a space that I don't occupy anymore.

OP of this thread

I agree! I notice the fandom skews 20s to mid-30s who like it because of the Devart vibes, with teenagers here and there. Makes sense since Viv is in her 30s. I kinda wish it was released in 2004 instead of 2024, but that's how it goes.
