I also really like the show. It's a ton of fun.

It definitely has some gross problems, and I'm more than willing to acknowledge them (and yeah sometimes they make me uncomfortable), but I still have a blast watching it on the whole. The only show I probably look forward to as much as it every week is Samurai Flamenco.

It's a hell of a lot more fun than Free! or Shingeki no Kyojin, that much is for sure.

actually watching two overrated but still decent shows is a lot more fun than having a PTSD flashback because some random japanese dude thinks rape is hilarious

just my opinion

I have absolutely zero problem with people disliking KLK because it triggers them or makes them uncomfortable (or disliking it for any reason, really). There's plenty there to do so. In fact I even posted about how much the people that defend the skeevy elements frustrate me today.

(I don't think I'd even put SnK on the level of decent though.)

It's like people like you don't even know what fanservice is. You don't like it or are uncomfortable with it, fine, but there's nothing wrong with having sexualized females just like there's nothing wrong with having sexualized males in media targeted to women. Let people have their faps.

Please. This isn't simple fanservice, it's a character being deliberately forced into a situation they HATE in a creepy and objectifying manner. This uniform is even forced on her in a scene that mirrors rape or sexual assault.

There's portrayals of women being sexual/sexy that you can 'fap' to that aren't gross. No one is saying women can't ever be sexy. But there's a difference between a woman presenting herself in such a way because she feels like it or a woman writing a woman presenting herself in that way because she feels like it, and objectification.

Ryuko is shoved in a uniform she hates and has to 'accept it' or it won't even work. She's ogled by creepy dudes repeatedly and the narrative treats it as funny. There are sexual assault jokes.

It's a similar problem to many 'panty shots' in anime. The character is often embarrassed/humiliated/upset by it. They're not in control of the situation. And if you need women, fictional or otherwise, to be forced into sexualized situations that they don't want to be in so you can have 'fap material' than frankly that's indicative of a problem and a creepy power fantasy that you have, and it should not be something media promotes.

Relax, it's just Chinese cartoons.

Don't bother responding to them. They have the stink of 4chan all over them and they're just trying to get a rise out of people.

Thank you for confirming that you don't know what fanservice is.

Why are you even in Tumblr? I don't even, Tumblr is full of morons, retarded SJW and awful people in general. This is like drinking a glass of piss and complaining that is disgusting.
