Wtf that comic sounds AWFUL?? All of the YOI fans I know are queer themselves and appreciate the fact that YOI normalises a gay romance instead of actually being a part of the Boys Love genre, it's a very different take on things. But 'Killing Stalking' sounds like.... The same old gross problematic yaoi bullshit that promotes horrific abusive tropes and seems completely oblivious to the idea of consent. Gross.
I think the YOI fandom needs to differentiate themselves from KS because Killing Stalking is being sold as the ~new Yuri On Ice/Yaoi story of the moment~ and I think that’s an awful representation for Yuri On Ice when YOI is actually cool and amazing whereas KS is problematic and just cheap bait for ~yaoi lovers~.
Don’t let people be tricked and think that Killing Stalking is a must read if you’ve watched Yuri On Ice because they have nothing in common. KS is damaging YOI’s reputation imo.
Just because you enjoyed YOI doesn’t mean you’re suitable for KS; YOI is an actual gay (and flawless) romance and KS is about an abusive and toxic relationship between a psychopath and his prey.
So I think people need to stop associating the two because that’s really giving Yuri On Ice a bad name (also it’s misleading as fuck).
