BL Lover

I'm not fond of the omegaverse trope because of the heteronormativity and gender roles, but i'll pick this and a robot trope over a series with pdf or a series that romanticizes step or adopted siblings. I find it hypocritical when people who watched the weird Taiwanese bls are calling this out... like you are not one to speak. Like you draw the line at omegaverse, but not child x minor tropes or brothers to lovers trope. Those people need to get their priorities straight.

I agree, I dont like omegaverse either and never watched one but i'd pick omegaverse over pdf or psuedo-infest like Kiseki and Unknown the series. An adult has no business dating a m1n0r. A 17 yr old and 27 year old is inherently disgusting and should not have been romanticized. In Unknown they are basically siblings.... He basically raised him. Anyways i'm not a hypocrite so I will stay away from all those problematic tropes and continue avoiding them.

I read through the comments and I agree with your views. Only individuals with adept critical thinking will understand your notion. The fujoshis get so worked up and upset when I call out problematic tropes that are harmful to the queer community. I always make sure to call out romanticization of problematic tropes like pdf and psuedo-infest, omegaverse, etc. Nonetheless, they just leave harmful rhetorics justifying negative representation while undermining our concerns and the extent of the issue and how it reinforces the negative stereotypes. Furthermore, the mpreg trope is heteronormative and forces gender roles and is mys0gynistic. Some of these bl fans watch bl, but do not care about the voice of the individuals that are being represented, hence feel the need to write us essays about why they are valid in their way of thinking. Their reasonings are always flawed and they just utilize circular logic to support their fallacy. What are your thoughts about people defending adult- child relationship using the argument that " it is okay because they are adolescents"; "they are of age now(groom1ng)", "or age of consent is ...... blah blah blah in this country so it is okay". I think their hard drives need to be checked. I also wanted to inquire are you also disgusted by romanticization of psuedo-infest because I find it very detestable because no one ever calls it out.

Non- romantic is fine as long as they each have their own lovers. Otherwise it comes off as they want people to ship them. The way the plot is phrased sounds very odd because why or how is a sister-in- law controling him???

You missed the point entirely! People always ship main leads together, hence the concern. I've seen countless cr33ps who even shipped step siblings and adoptive siblings together. Ovbiously this person mentioned this in the first place for a reason. They probably encountered w31rd0s in the past. Also their comment was solely based on the plot, specifically the part about "sis-in-law controls him".

I'm not gonna just accept that, we shouldn't normalize it or ignore it. Accepting it is not beneficial, that will just allow people to get away with condoning problematic things. We should call it out and put them in their place for being nasty.

Thank god because that would be nasty, hopefully no weird fans ship the in-laws together.

Agreed! it's giving psuedo-infest vibes. I'm glad someone brought up how weird it is to have a focus btwn in-laws when they know some people are gonna ship them.

Rightttt and no one bats an eye. It's daunting how they have a family fetish and everyone hypes up these nasty psuedo-infest plots and try to justify it. Seems like you and I are the only normal ones here.

The point is why even use the step siblings trope, it is w31rd af. Also you are legally step siblings if your parents married regardless of whether you met as children or adults. In Addicted they are still step siblings living under the same roof and sharing the same parents. The parents literally said that they were going to get married towards the beginning of the series and that was before they both fell in love with each other. As soon as they said meet your new brother I dipped. For me it doesn't matter if they met as kids or adults it's still w31rd and immoral. Unfortunately it seems the writers brainwashed people into thinking it is okay as long as the siblings aren't blood related. There are plenty of other tropes out there. Don't you find it weird how they always romanticize "brothers to lovers". Now go look at rutydeRaposa comment. Do you see how problematic this type of trope is? It desensitizes people and now they want even more taboo. She literally said she wants full blown incest and tired of the psuedo incest.

It seems we aren't going to come to an agreement on this, hence no point in continuing this pointless discussion.

Of course you and all the f3t1shiz3rs would want more taboo after being desensitized by borderline infest. You reek, go take a shower. You and the cronies that liked your comment are stanking up the comment section. Hope yall don't have siblings, i'm worried for their safety you might pounce on them.

Pseudo Infest- S3x with someone with a familial relationship, but no blood relationship. Sometimes treated as incest in the law (e.g., siblings by adoption, stepparents and stepchildren, in-laws).

FYI it is illegal in many countries and considered taboo. Maybe educate yourselves in the future instead of trying to argue. Blocking anyone who tries to defend this trope. I'm not going to engage with anyone who tries to defend this trope.

Putting the def here since some of y'all are ignorant and oblivious, but want to argue without knowing facts.

Go look up the term psuedo-infest. Also I'm not surprised by your comment you were literally shipping Iwao Goto with Keisuke Goto and whether you like it or not they are family, both are part of the Goto family hence the same last name. Very disappointing because I literally agreed with you about multiple things in the past. Guess I can't trust anyone except myself to like normal bls these days.

They have a family fetish atp, very repulsive. Wish they would make more normal ones like See Your Love or We Best Love. I always try to avoid the infest or pdf tropes. I never watched a w31rd one and never will. If you really want to watch a Taiwanese bl you should watch the upcoming bl "Sparkle in Your Eyes" instead because it seems like a normal bl based on the synopsis. Otherwise, just continue watching jbls, kbls, Thai bls, Filipino bls, or even Vietnamese bls. There are plenty of normal bls out there. If you ever need recommendations for normal bls I have plenty that I can list.

I think you are mistaken, my point is that it doesn't matter if they are blood related or not. It's still nasty af to like a sibling even if they are not blood related. It is considered pseudo-infest, but I personally consider it to be infest. Would you like your step brother or adoptive brother just because they are not blood related to you? This trope has to stop, people are getting desensitized and want something even more taboo. FYI brothers to lovers trope should have never been romanticized. Now it's so normalized that they brainwashed people into thinking it is okay to date a sibling as long as they are not blood related. Also there are plenty of other tropes to pick from so why do they continuously choose this one? honestly do you not find it odd how they are obsessed with this trope? Out of every 5 Taiwanese bls, 4 are brothers to lovers. Absolutely daunting!!! I miss the old days when they used to have normal bl tropes and people would shun step siblings trope.

You don't need to be blood related to be family. If the parents marry that makes them family. Also why the double standard?? people shame robot romance but draw the line at the brothers to lovers trope??? Also why are you offended that I called out infest, yikes! do you like your sibling or something.

Skipping this one, I'll continue avoiding all the infest ones. Never watched one and never will cause i'm not a cr33p. The brothers to lovers trope has a chokehold on Taiwan and China. ATP they must have a family fetish. It's revolting and people keep hyping series with this trope hence they continue mass producing it. People always complain about robots, but I think wanting to date your own sibling is far worse and desperate. Like keep that nasty shit in your corn and stop bringing it into bls. Actually, take that out of corn too, no one should watch that trope.

If everyone collectively stopped watching and uploading bl edits of these brothers to lovers series then they would stop producing it.

Never said it was was her biological daughter, but it is still her daughter nonetheless. Let's not get into the technicalities of blood relations. What Gin did is effed up and no one should empathize with her. Her revenge is directed towards the wrong people.

I agree!!! They are trying to portray that Agawa is the same as the Gotos, thus the parallels throughout the show.

This!!! I hate how everyone in the series and also viewers are acting like Agawa is a villain or is insane, but he is literally the only sane person in the whole series. Sure his method might seem too violent, but it is well needed against a bunch of child abusing cannibals. Also I'm annoyed how the series tried to make us empathize with the villains because now people switched up and are feeling bad for certain characters they should not have sympathy for.
