Nah. I’ve been told similar before, usually with a very angry or mean tone. Or very condescending anime girl images. I like big titty anime girls with 30 year old pornstar bodies as much as the next guy. I’m not looking to ban anything. Liking Orihime’s big tatas doesn’t make you a pedo, I like them too, lets be fucking adults here.
But at the end of the day when you hear they’re all 13 to 16 and there’s ass shots, occasional nipplage, and sometimes just sexual assault. We gotta be honest it’s kind of weird. No amount of snark, anger, or condescending anime girl pictures gets away from the simple core fact that’s a teenager explicitly designed in a way to look fuckable to the audience. People wouldn’t get embarrassed when someone else walks in if it wasn’t weird. And when people start becoming hostile when it’s pointed out really doesn’t help any perceptions.
It also really doesn’t help that it’s way too easy to find anime fans who will just tell you to your face they want to fuck underage teenagers and children and ask if that upsets you immediately after.
And then… the 8 year olds, I mean.
Imagine trying to explain “It’s not real” to a real life crowd of average people. They’re going to react exactly as the average person would to Here’s a Drawing of A Sexy 8 Year Old. And there’s no dancing around that one. No explaining it away. It’s straight up a child made to be fuckable. It’s fucking creepy. It doesn’t automatically mean you want to stick it up a real kid, hopefully. But it’s fucking creepy.
