Its crazy to me that people are calling this character problematic for fetishizing teenagers, yet dont seem to grasp that this entire series was created by middle age Japanese men with the specific purpose of seeing their fetishes acted out by teenagers, with the secondary purpose of spreading those fetishes to young, impressionable people. Are they stupid?
Its crazy to me that people are calling this character problematic for fetishizing teenagers...
Rumiko was a middle age man?
The source material was created by a woman. Also Happosai isn't as problematic as he is fucking annoying and a waste of pages/screen time.
No matter what you say, people will hate what they hate. Anyways, this midget is very annoying on the original.
Anything for plausible deniability.
old men touching 16 years old and collecting their panties
not as problematic
lmao
Well I apologize for not checking that before I made the post but my statement is still valid. Even if the series wasnt created by a middle age man it was certainly endorsed by them.
but anon, being a pedophile is okay, being a murderous hottie is not kek
We need to normalize molestation again
Obvious false flagging thread to push a narrative.
Rumiko has made a succesful series that involves a small old balding man able to perv on young beautiful girls.
Further improved by the directors and artists of the original anime seeing the old pervs true comedic potential
And no amount of seethe nor false flag will change that.
Happosai has done his job and I am happy.
My gripe is that this piece of shit is just unbearably annoying
Hypocritical behavior at best.
The overwhelming majority of female anime characters is underage and the so called community has no problem sexualizing most of them. Normalfag women take no issue with lewd cosplays of JC and JK anime girls either.
The funny thing is Happosai doesn't even appear in the manga all that often. It was just an easy plot device for filler. Non-filler has him disappear for chapters on end.
It's not, now run away faggot.
I was more just saying that there's more reasons to hate Happosai than just him being "problematic". People like to dismiss all criticism of certain things in similar ways.
Retarded pol/tw*tter fag posts without knowing who made the thing xhe's rage baiting about
Its so funny being an anime obsessed weirdo neet autist whos been on this site for almost 20 years and being called a redditor, shill, paid plant, ragebaiter and the like. Makes you realize how retarded and paranoid the people on this site who seem to think they're highly informed actually are
Are you OP? If you have been here for almost 20 years and think you're anime obsessed, why would you claim that Ranma was made by some group of men?
holy fuck go back
sorry I dont know every detail about your most beloved trans fetish porn
make authoritative post while having no idea what you're talking about
Sasuga Anon Babble
I don't think you've been here for almost 20 years, I think you're some youngster weirdo faggot who hates normal sexuality because you were sexually abused as a child.
Nobody is calling him problematic. One twat with a phone is not "people".
Also he was never presented as anything but a scummy shitbag. A funny scummy shitbag, but a scummy shitbag all the same.
Anon Babble
That fagget does not represent Anon Babble at all
The show about a shapeshifting trans teen is normal sexuality. Good to know. Thank you for educating me
Im the one that got you ass blasted and I've never seen ranma 1/2 ,I just know that information through osmosis from my years here.
Are you complaining about a) an old man wanting to ogle and grope teen girls b) Japanese men creating Ranma to psyop the young to become tranny fap bait c) Rumiko Takahashi's creation supposedly being approved of by old Japanese males
Well as I already said, the entire show is the embodiment of the "the writers barely disguised fetish" meme, so I guess all three
What is the writer's barely disguised fetish meme?
How about we stop making threads about things only social media users care about?
One of the true fans. You are blessed.
Fetishizing girls in a perfectly legal age for marriage? Even with today japanese laws, I think back then it was even lower.
Why can people not fathom that someone writing about something doesn't have to have a "fetish" for it or some other retarded claim? The majority of Rumiko's shit is straight romance but Ranma is for some reason indicative of her "fetishes". Does her doing Urusei Yatsura (or even Inuyasha) mean she has a "fetish" for interspecies (human and alien) love?
It's especially funny seeing people try and tack trans identity to this series when Ranma is literally cursed and hates it.
Didn't you already make this thread? Except it was about a Screen Rant writer who you thought was one of the producers.
Yknow thinking about it deeper I guess the answer is none of them. I noticed a thing and made a post about it. I wasnt mad about anything, just find the cognitive dissonance of normies interesting. Then you all got really upset over an imaginary criticism, and I guess its just fun to argue with easily triggered morons
Further improved by the directors and artists of the original anime seeing the old pervs true comedic potential
Happosai wasn't overused in the original anime because the staff thought he was funny, he was overused because he was easy villain to write & they couldn't be bothered to come up with original antagonists.
So you're complaining about nothing?
fetishizing teenagers
Its a natural instinct
They will continue to push the narrative as hard as they can, hoping it'll stick similar to what they've done with Strive.
Too bad for them that Ranma will always remain a dude who is secure with his masculinity.
Ranma is straight
Ranma will beat up transexuals
Happosai will remain a beloved and permanent character in Ranma.
I mean plenty of women read monster/alien/supernatural smut books, so its not outside the realm of possibility. Forced transformation is also a very common fetish.
I wasnt complaining at all. Reread the post. I noticed a thing I thought was somewhat interesting, the fact that normies complain about a character being a pervert but dont understand that the entire show is someones fetish. Congratulations on having the same comprehension skills as them.
the entire show is someones fetish
Whose fetish? Are you pointing out that there are people out there nutting to Ranma? Cool
Imagine being the perfectly entertaining antagonist that he is perfect for repeat use no matter what.
To summarize, if you genuinely dont believe that this is softcore fetish porn youre a moron. I dont care that it is, I like the show fine, but it absolutely is. Also didnt Urusei Yatsura literally start the entire waifu fetish bait genre?
You should reply to before running away.
Also re: your OP post:
Its crazy to me that people are calling this character problematic for fetishizing teenagers
Okay so it's problematic according to some people, this is the clause where you define the initial complaint.
, yet dont seem to grasp that this entire series was created by middle age Japanese men with the specific purpose of seeing their fetishes acted out by teenagers, with the secondary purpose of spreading those fetishes to young, impressionable people
This is your personal expansion of the critique where you point out that it was made by middle-aged Japanese men (false), that it was designed to cater to their (immoral) fetishes, and that there's an intent to spread the fetish to a vulnerable audience (sexual predation!).
You're definitely complaining but you're receiving pushback that you can't handle so you're backpedaling to avoid having to defend your claims.
To summarize
You're not summarizing shit. You came in making vague allusions to some sexuality involving teens and male gaze being boo-boo and now you're leaving. Worthless pussy
I bet the ladies just go crazy for you
I accept your concession.
Are we seriously having another thread for this? By someone even less informed? At least wait for him to show up.
Youre behavior should be studied
Imagine not knowing who Rumiko Takahashi is
it's not a fetish, it's a romcom, the beginning of romantic comedy
I dont have to imagine. Ive lived it.
We're back to the cognitive dissonance thing.
So youve had this explained to you twice now and you still dont get it?
it is true that a lot of teens including me experienced their first 'sexual' feelings during ranma but the show is just a blueballing romcom
Now list the fetishes youve developed since then
Also most people prefer their porn in harmless/fun form that is not too close to reality and doesnt have to be thought about too hard. Almost every romcom anime is ecchi
Just joined the thread after yesterday's Happosai thread. Anyway, I disagree with the assessment that Ranma 1/2 exists primarily as fetish fuel. Happosai was always intended to be basically irredeemable, including his creator who did enjoy writing him despite that.
Dude you have to like the ugly old annoying midget!
No thanks. Inuyasha's always been her better story cause of gay shit like this
Happosai simply harassed 16+ girls, Miroku was nailing 12+ chicks left and right including Kagome.
No one cares about morals when it comes to fiction, bro. You might as well cry about MCs slaughtering people en-mass as well.
This shitty netflix remake has been irreversibly outed as pozzed trash. Anyone unironically defending this shit at this point can only be a paid shill.
i don't care but ranmafags do
I don't mind the "dirty old man" trope, but Happosai was just annoying in general.
But anon, if he's missing the series would only have the same three gags instead of four. How could it possible work then?
claims to been on the site for almost 20 years but doesn't know who Takahashi is
Like saying you don't know who Yoshiyuki Tomino is. You're not good at lying btw. Even if you never read/watched Ranma 1/2, you at least heard of her other works like Urusei Yatsura or Inuyasha. Osmosis knowledge is a thing.
An annoying character in "Every Character is a Piece of Shit: The Animation"? Preposterous.
