        We were talking about how this dude could've joined a slave revolt instead of doing a long con revenge fantasy where he owns people and arrived at the The Most Important Piece of Theory @AuthorPolonium/1204048902271520769

            So again. Why do it twice? What advantage does this bring?

              It's interesting that the adaptation is glossing over this when this was the main sticking point of the source material

                cw abuse, homophobia the show is definitely using the fact that some of his abusers were men to make it seem worse to the audience. Like, "not only was I raped, I was raped my MEN" so it's really hateful

                        A subtle similarity between Redo and Shield Hero is the insistence that spoiled women who aren't told no enough by men turn into bitches

                            Who thinks this is mature or "dark" that's the thing. By being so over the top the show feels like it was written by a 14 year old who started watching porn a little too early in life

                              Another Shield Hero similarity: a handsome blond man who "falls" for the female lead and does whatever she says, without realizing that the female lead is a terrible person and is just using him/doesn't even like him back

                                This character also appears in Konosuba. I'm not sure why this is a whole trope, but it is. And unfortunately I'm one of 5 people who notice because I keep watching these kinds of shows

                                                          @kranasAngel was thinking earlier, with the whole "bark like a dog thing" we put a pin in was not in and of itself a fetish like I had thought, but a justification for a similar scene that would be sexualized. I think they were right on the money

                                                            They continue: The fetish feels "wrong" but by having Flare do it to him first it no longer feels "wrong" because it's done in retribution.

                                                              As for me: the show justifies rape with the exact same rhetorical process as Shield Hero justified slavery. They really are like parallel pieces of media
