PSA
You're negative feelings towards the season may not have to do with your ships and I wanna say it's okay to have a different experience or feeling towards the season. Everyone enjoys things differently and this season impacted everyone differently. And despite what some people seem to be implying, it wasn't really "ships" that I have seen and talked to people about them being disheartened. I know for myself, scrolling through sometimes it feels like if you didn't like the season it's because "all you care about is ships and you don't appreciate this show" and I'm here to tell you that's wrong and a very negative view. Are there some people who hated the season due to ships? Yes. Did all of those who were impacted negatively by the season have their experiences due to ships? Not at all. Please respect ALL people's opinions. Whether they liked it or not. And for those who are shaming people who did like the season, don't. The season resonated with them for different reasons. They're a different person with different opinions. Don't shame anyone because they're different. Being different is what makes us awesome. Having diverse people with diverse opinions shows how large this little world actually is. I'm not saying keep your opinions or criticism of the season to yourself, but I am saying keep your criticism of other people's opinions to a respectful level. If you're discussing pros and cons, and both of you have agreed to do such, go ahead! But not everyone is okay with hearing negative views towards their opinions, either at the moment, or in general. And it doesn't matter whether they should or shouldn't but you need to be respectful towards their opinions and feelings. Treat everyone with the respect our great Shiro would show y'all, pala-dudes.
