PLEASE. Like spread this post, spread the word, we HAVE to do this.
ive decided to become a Lawful Good edgelord abt driving a car. *looks broodily away from you* what's wrong...? no, you wouldn't understand. I've been burdened with a great and terrible power. a lethal metal machine that obeys my every whim but which whispers dark things to me...tempting me to move ever faster, to grow careless in my movements... I've seen this power corrupt many others. my father. my great-aunt veronica. I've seen them neglect the wisdom of the turn signal. I've seen them text while driving. every day I must remain vigilant lest I become over-used to this dark power......

That moment when the eldritch monster haunting your city hits you with the gay thoughts instead of the horrific visions 🤕 (I just wanted to draw byler as stock images)
Honestly, it's really fun how Dungeon Meshi haa the main party take on a teenage cat girl halfway through the series, except she's covered in fur all over so nothing shows even when she's naked, she's arguably the most skilled combatant in the group, basically everyone treats her like a kid they're taking care of, she acts like a feral cat begrudgingly choosing to adopt a group of humans instead of a needy kitten, she's a picky eater, she's immune to monsters that try to seduce you, and her past as a slave is directly shown to be traumatic and miserable to the point that her former owner literally made her have a magic seal on her neck that would murder her if she managed to escape.
She's basically the antithesis of fanservice catgirls. Every single trait other series use to turn catgirls into sex objects is inverted to make for an entertaining and interesting character.
Do people seriously think that a show centered on nerds and social outcasts...
... shows how awful the popular kids can be...
... villainizes anti-gay bullies...
... sides against abusers...
... supports LGBT+ people...
... has interracial romance...
... embraces being different...
... turns an expected hetero romance into a beautiful platonic friendship...
... criticizes moral panic/evangelism...
... makes the "town freak" our hero...
... shows that love can overcome hate...
... and whose characters don't want to recreate the nuclear family...
... do we really think that show will let a suffering, traumatized gay boy's love be the device for a conventional white hetero couple to be the show's "main relationship"?
Has the show even set-up Mike and El, who met through trauma and circumstance while they were children and have repeatedly lied to each other, for a lifelong commitment?
Who's actually delusional?
And who sees this show for what it is? And what it's clearly setting up?
