Seeing this post by Shady doorags really reminds me of an issue I have with the persona 2 fandom and it’s view of Jun
Jun is a very well written character in his own right but i can’t stand that he’s only known for being the gay romance option because he’s an interesting character in his own right and i feel this just reduces that
Sorry for listening to me ramble
(Any buzzwords in my inbox for this are gonna get nuked i don’t wanna deal with tumblr being tumblr)
they could never make me hate you rise
This man is clearly smoking something where can I get it
not pictured is joker teaching neku to dodge bullets idk
I shouldn’t have to explain this but apparently i have to cause tumblr likes being tumblr
Naotos desire to be a man doesn’t stem from internalized transphobia it stems from her desire to be taken seriously in a male dominated workspace and none of this is my interpretation this is information the game literally gives us ourselves
And saying that she is “struggling with internalized transphobia” because a trans person can “see it” doesn’t mean it automatically becomes canon
Now does this mean trans people can’t relate to any of naotos struggles no of course not in fact it’s understandable for trans people to relate to her struggles however disregarding the entire reasons why she wanted to become a man and the point her arc was trying to make in place of the headcanon you project onto her character is frustrating
Kamen goes into this subject better than I can
seeing trans naoto discourse on twitter has made me realise how many cis persona fans are just oblivious because they’ll say he’s a woman under the guise of ‘he says it in the game’ and say that people calling him trans haven’t played the game but literally every trans person can see that he is struggling with a LOT of internalised transphobia. and sure maybe that wasn’t the writer’s intentions with him but thats how a lot of us see him because we’ve been through it ourselves. we see ourselves in this character and maybe it’s just ignorance on a lot of cis people’s part (which i can’t exactly blame them for) but some people get so horribly transphobic about it and its unnecessary
It's so funny to see someone point this out to him
Sigh I feel I need to step in for Kamen on this one (dude deals with too much hate on the daily so I’m trying to help him out)
He is clearly delusional. Nothing about him stands out, and he reminds me why he should have existed 10 years ago, so I don't care about Americans like him.
Geez what did we ever do to you
He’s clearly obsessed with things I heavily dislike. He’s a mainstream consumer, by the way. He talks about morally gray characters,
The morally grey video was about characters many fans liked to claim were “morally grey” did you actually watch his videos or did you look at the title and whine at it
literacy, tokusatsu,
Tokusatsu? Mainstream? In America? Oh brother have you Been living under a rock or something
and mostly Yu-Gi-Oh! videos. But here’s the catch: his Yu-Gi-Oh! videos show how unaware and clueless he is. He claims Seto Kaiba is great but mocks Jack Atlas.
If you actually watched his videos you’d know that jack atlas is his favorite rival Kamen just has issues with how season 2 handled aspects of his character
His recent videos are just about Gen 1 Yu-Gi-Oh! games on Duel Monsters.
Remind me how many games gx and 5ds have that aren’t tag force or just dueling as a video game
He never talks negatively about his fans
Why is this a problem?!
or tries to be constructive. He goes on and on about the amazing digital circus being different,
The show is an existential horror about people trapped in a video game that’s a pretty unique premise in of itself
but that show is still ongoing and doesn’t need to be analyzed so much.
Discussing doesn’t mean analyzing nimrod
I guess he’s just too caught up in his own ego.
Look who’s talking
Sometimes, he comes off as pretty stupid in his videos.
What I hate the most about him is how he keeps milking that Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance nonsense
So no ones allowed to talk about things he finds interesting sweet
while mocking 5D's and calling it weak.
Let me tell you something: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is just a staple for Americans
Metal gear is made by Japanese developers
to enjoy mindless hours of video games rather than being engaged with real content. The game isn't great, and its story is shallow.
Yes it is truly a shallow story with no depth or substance indeed
Honestly you’re just hating for the sake of hating
You’re only points of contention are built entirely on assumptions that could be dismissed by actually watch the videos you “criticized”
But no you make yourself look like a bigger idiot by building the biggest strawman I can imagine
For homework
Here’s a list of his videos you clearly never bothered watching
Have fun
Why do you dislike MangaKamen so much and why?
This picture of Homer Simpsons getting punched is one example of my hate for that doucebag.
He is pathetic!

Advice I could have used a long time ago
I’m begging y’all not to engage in culture wars. It will ruin your mental health and your perception on the internet. And it will fill your feed with uneccesary drama.
If you see something that makes you uncomfortable, just block it.
The satosugu fans back in the day scared me and they probably didn’t know it
I remember seeing satosugu nsfw male pregnancy fan art just for having gojo in my tags
You don’t come back from that man
So she blocks anyone who criticizes her takes
Lovely
