🫵PSA (and a Rant)🫵

I don't want to attack anyone personally here, but it's time I got a few things off my chest.

When I witness that OCs, especially POC OCs or those who don't conform to typical beauty standards (and also happen to be female most of the times), are deliberately excluded or criticized because of their appearance, and told that they should change their appearance and looks design wise since "it would look prettier on her", then I want nothing to do with you!

I live for character diversity, and even though my Attack on Titan OCs are the epitome of typical white people from the North, they are still not my only fandom OCs. I love diversity and individuality, and there are no rules or laws about what an OC should look like or how they should behave. It's TOTALLY OKAY to like a certain aesthetic when it comes to character design, but that shouldn't be a reason to purposely exclude other OC creators who enjoy a different aesthetic and design their characters to be more unique than yours.

If you don't like the OC, just let it be and keep quiet! Don't criticize the OC towards the creator because that's just disrespectful and extremely gutless, as nobody would say something like that directly to their face.

There's a block button that doesn't cost anything and you don't have to make yourself a total bitch here.

Simply do better, honestly.

It's so annoying that this fandom is so pressed with a character's win or lost ratio like it actually matters? " Toshiro got another L " " He got owned again. " " He's so pathetic. " I need to stay away from Twitter today. It's just hilarious to me how these ppl lack rationality in regards to certain characters. How does anyone expect Toushiro to beat Bazz-B without Hyourinmaru? The source of his power, his Bankai? His partner he's fought with for decades? Fire will always overpower Ice??? -- And instead of focusing on his efforts, making ice walls, thought of a trap, working with Rangiku, despite that avoidable truth, ppl just focus on the loss. ----- I know it takes a certain intelligence to understand his character, but this ain't it, chief. ---- He did fantastic with what he had.

Okay seriously tumblr this issue with the p.ornbots is starting to go from annoying to actually cumbersome very fast. I've had to block 7 today because now they're COMMENTING on my posts.

//so my little brother’s gf of two years dumped him Xmas motherfucking day and is now shitposting about some random honcho in grey sweats and how she needs to work it so she can be in control of the situation. Y’all. I am so ready to go postal on this chick. You do not fuck with my baby bro like that. Like...no. I wasn’t a huge fan of her to begin with but now >.> lemme catch her in person...

//I won’t make a very long post about it, but I’d like to make my stance upon matters ABUNDANTLY clear, if a bit less delicate than most. 

If you send anon hate, you’re a cowardly waste of space. There’s no excuse to go out of your way in an attempt to ruin another persons fun/mood/day all while HIDING who you are so you can avoid blame. If you really REALLY hate that person and simply NEED to be petty? 

Do it under your own name and own that shit. At least then it’s a real simple matter of cutting ties with those that don’t agree and moving on with life. Otherwise? Take your petty jealousy or hate, bottle it up, and cram it up your ass. <3

I’m mad about stuff

So why do I care about how GO decided to do Uesugi Kenshin? Because the implications of the character are gross. Long story short there are several very unflattering rumors about Kenshin that stem from his perceived lack of his interest in women and fathering no kids. The most charitable is just him being gay for Takeda Shingen which is the most likely choice when you consider that Kenshin mourned for a week when Shingen died. But that route would require them to NOT being absolute cowards.

The other is that Kenshin was secretly a woman (which includes other implications I won’t include here). This would not be a bad thing if it was not often used to basically undermine Kenshin’s achievements during the Sengoku Period.

So now maybe you understand why seeing Fate make Kenshin a ditzy genki girl is kidna...really bad and infuriating. Which is a shame cause the character design itself is really good. But when taken with the full context of how Kenshin is sometimes thought of it’s really hard to not start thinking she was designed entirely in bad faith. And it’s a shame because I really enjoyed pretty much everything about all the GudaGuda stuff up until this.

Similarly, GO’s take on Gareth is also really really bad. And it’s not just ONE thing about her or even a few it’s basically everything. Her design alone comes across as lazy and her personality is just god awful.

Gareth is basically the third strongest of the Knights of the Round right after Gawain and Lancelot and the kind of person who will absolutely do what’s right even if it hurts them. Gareth’s victories were brought on entirely by her own strength in myth not by whacky fuckin spears. Not to mention making her a blushy Lancelot fangirl is just the laziest fucking thing ever and entirely ignores that Gareth grew beyond that and had her own identity as a knight.

Also everything related to her hands is gross. Full stop. The nickname “Beaumains” was meant as an insult because Kay recognized Gareth’s soft hands meant Gareth had never done a real day’s work ever.

Like Fate’s take on Arthuriana is already a goddamn travesty by just ignoring very important aspects of the stories (like Lancelot and Guinevere’s “romance” being somewhat of a criticism of Courtly Love and how dangerous it can be) but this is easily the worst thing yet. It’s a complete betrayal of the source of the character in the name of cheap content and gags.

Why do I care so much? Because I love Sengoku Era history and I adore Arthuran legends. And seeing this kind of creative bankruptcy is just disappointing.

This has been Mags and I will sign off saying I’ll gladly punt baby Paris right into the Sun.
