If you are an anti, you may want to avoidĀ "Uchi no Maid ga Uzasugiru!"
The Fall 2018 Anime season has begun, and we are getting new shows and new continuations. JJBA: Vento Aureo has finally begun, and there is this new anime about lesbian romance, Yagate Kimi ni Naru, that looks pretty cute so far. But not every anime is perfect, and thereās always a show that makes you want to punch in the face the idiots who made it.Ā
āUchi no Maid ga Uzasugiru!ā orĀ āUzaMaidā for short, seems like it is going to be like one of those animes for me.
This anime is⦠Well, IāllĀ Ā just copy and paste the sinopsis
āHaving lost her mother at a young age, Misha Takanashi,Ā a second grade elementary school girl with Russian blood, now lives with her Japanese father. Tsubame Kamoi, formerly a Self-Defense Force officer, comes to the Takanashi household as a housekeeper. This is a home comedy where Kamoi, a hardcore lolicon, attempts to get near Misha as she tries to fight against her.ā
ā¦Yeah, it is that kind of anime.
Did I mention that this is a comedy?
While, as far as I can tell, the series is not explicit CP (Thank goodness), it is still about a pedophile sexually harassing a little girl while the little girlās father does nothing. The woman in cuestion even outright admits that she is not interested in girls that have begun menstruating. Ewww.Ā
People will defend this anime saying that itās humor, that is not supposed to be taken seriously. I can get that, I watched Happy Sugar Life with a too similar argument, because it was a really morbid horror anime that just happened to have pedophilia on it just to make things all the more messed up.
Hereās the thing: Happy Sugar Life was a horror anime. The pedophiles on it, even the ones with sympathetic backstories including the MC, were always portrayed as really sick individuals, and since the MC was a child groomer, its implicit that she was saving any sexual acts for when her victim was older. That is fucked up on itās own right, but at least it meant that I didnāt had to watch that child be sexually abused, which would have probably kept me from watching the show at all even if meant for horror. Also, spoiler alert, the pedophile dies when her whole plan comes crashing down around her, and her victim is last seen getting medical help, even if still horribly traumatized.Ā
HSL was wrong and uncomfortable because it was supposed to make you feel uncomfortable and scared.Ā With this show, Iām supposed to see this grown woman sexually abusing this little girl, something HSL never did, and laugh at it.Ā
Iām all for theĀ āHumor is not supposed to be politically correctā argument, but thereās some lines I donāt like to cross.
If you like this kind of humor, good for you. But to all my fellow Anti-MAPs and to people who were CSA victims or just plain donāt want to see this kind of content, you all may want to avoid this anime like the plague.Ā
