seriously my friends tell me to watch a bunch of shows and so fuckin many of them are obnoxiously pervy right out the gate :stalin-stressed:
I watch a fair amount of anime and I still give most of my recommendations with the disclaimer “but there’s some sexualization of underage characters you’ll have to ignore”
It’s not an overblown issue

Watch better shows? It’s not hard to avoid if you simply don’t watch mainstream shonen trash.
It is hard to avoid even if you don’t watch mainstream shonen trash. No need to get so weirdly hostile in defense of your treats. Separate your media interests from your sense of identity. A criticism of media you like is not an attack on you.
Idk what you’re on about tbh. It’s genuinely been a decade at least since I’ve seen a show with loli shit. I’m not being hostile, you are just projecting your own poor taste into everyone who watches anime. It says a lot about you that you think loli shit is common.
The weeb brigade is here to imply I’m a bad person for recognizing the rampant sexualization of minors in anime, great.
Awesome to see chapo.chat going from “don’t be defensive” to “oh god oh help me they are attacking me”.
It all started with someone simply saying “its easy to avoid just pick better stuff”. That is a siberian winter take at best.
You probably need to read more on this website. Many people posting in this thread already had a number of posts over the bad issues in anime elsewhere in the past. Stop making a strawman when literally nobody here denies anime has bad stuff in it. You are not in fact in r/anime.
However you want a hill to die on, apparently everything is bad including the mainstream stuff(I’d say the mainstream stuff is actualy the most innofensive but anyway), sorry but its on you. You are allowed to have your opinion. Just don’t expect others to agree.
There is no discourse here, only someone looking for a hill to die on. Pick better stuff. I can make a MAL list if you want.
