Post shit in BL that you hate.

>>8005There isn't I just have no standards and can't let go of middle school interests
I'll take anything but I always liked Two-Brains and TobyThis convo is making me think of the people in the confessions thread who were talking about liking cartoons. I think when you're little you just ravenously ship everything with no regards to actual viability or shipping quality. In that sense the only thing that makes Bluey unusual is that is has a brony-tier fanbase and isn't young children who will refine their pallet later.
No.8007
>>7993I had a MLP friendship is magic phase so I feel like I probably can't dunk on the bluey enjoyers but I also don't know whether that target audience skews even younger than FiM.

Bulges, just look gross.
No.8009
>>8008Actually let me clarify it's only bad when it's through pants, if they're changing in a locker room or something and he's getting teaser by other guys that's fine.
No.8014
Not sure if someone said this before here BUT I FUCKING HATE BAIT ANIME! I hate it so much with a burning passion! No, I do not want to share a fandom with yumejos and delusional moids, I do not want to wait an eternity for the charcters to end up marrying the FL, I do not want to be invested in something that doesn't even have them holding hands or confessing their love to one another! Like yeah sure you can say I'm missing out and beggars can't be choosers BUT BE FUCKING FOR REAL for how long am I going to remain a beggar? The last time that happened with Yuri on Ice we got bamboozled and didn't get that movie, I am sick of it
No.8018
I would say hate is a strong word, but I really disliked being baited and switched by Vanitas no Carte. The theme song animation made it look like it was going to heavily imply bl but then both the men were nearly immediately aggressively heterosexual. What a let down.
No.8019
>>8014The characters I like never end up with girls but I still seethe because it never ends well regardless. They either break up, one of them gets killed or some other shit makes me believe that there is either some anti-gay conspiracy or just homophobic mangaka that cannot tolerate happy ends for characters with gay-coded relationships.
I don't even need 100% canon as in kisses-on-screen since that would never happen in shows that aren't outright BL but I also don't understand the people that defend this when nobody ever complains about the billions of confirmed het pairings that almost every single anime has.
I don't even demand the romance the het pairings get (mostly because it's awfully written anyway) but at least do not bait me or destroy the pairing. Holy shit.
I am not talking about stuff like WSJ MCs where it's obvious that they end up with a female LI, I mean close relationships that exist throughout the show up till the end and then like a year before the manga ends they have to get separate, get NTRed, one gets killed or some shit that confirms they were never together.
No.8020
>>8018Yeah I hadn't heard of the subject material before watching it but I dropped that shit as soon as I realised what was actually going on.
No.8021
>>8020>>8018tbh I saw no promo material and shit so I never assumed it would be gay and mostly watched it because I loved Pandora Hearts and expected some cool setting, drama and well-written characters and het-pairings but I didn't even get that.
I lost my hopes when Jeanne turned out to be pure waifu coomer fanservice after her introduction. Not sure why the series is so much worse, PH was pretty cool all around. And while I didn't ship het I liked the pairings because they worked. Here it was just one-dimensional shit with lots of tits and insecure waifu blushing.
No.8023
Whenever I find a doujin that has been translated to English but it says it's been translated with Google Translate. Sometimes it can be edited to the point where you don't really notice but most of the time it's pretty mediocre and something always feels off. I love reading doujins but between machine translated or not knowing what it says, I think I choose the latter.
No.8032
>>8023I'm somewhat optimistic that AI translations will eventually get good enough to serviceably translate works. Never as good as a human of course because it can't leave notes or pick up on nuances, but I'd love to be able to read untranslated DJ and have a good idea of at least what's going on.
No.8065
>>8014The problem here is that BL rarely gets anime or if it does, it's slice of life. No interesting plots or worldbuilding, nothing that will generate a fandom or long-term interest unlike the bait shows. I'm tired of bait too but nothing else ever gets popular or gets anything but quality animation. Yuri on Ice was the last time and that was almost a decade ago.
No.8066
>>8065>yoi>almost a decade agoSomehow, this pains me.
No.8073
>>8072It reads like actual ERP goon texting. Like the kind of thing someone getting off while sexting would type. I know He would not say that is effectively a meme, but- well, he would not say that.
I've even ctrl f-ed 'daddy' before in fanfic before reading and closed the tab when I found it.
But I think I hate comedy dialogue more. I remember this one really popular VN from years ago I tried and quit immediately because whoever was writing apparently didn't understand the way people talk. I don't know how to describe it other than being funny- trying to be funny.
No.8074
>>8072>Do I just not have the brain to read smut?I think you have the brain to read smut written by adult women that don't act semi-retarded when they're horny
I get the feeling that a lot of it is just a "fanfic loop" where teens that only read Kinktober fanfic slop regurgitate the style back into their own writing for someone else to read and mimic
The corny BDSM monologues probably came from that, along with characters giving lectures about sex safety and consent
In my experience, good smut fics are hidden away in niche or inaccessible fandoms (AKA media teens would need to actively seek out because it's not on their FYP or streaming)
Original Works has a lot of pornsick men writing out autistic fantasies though lol
No.8075
>>8074I think safety and consent lectures are great when the content is in no way safe or healthy.
But the amount of content that does it is slim and as far as I know- I'm the only one who's done it. I'm sure there are works out there that have it, but I wish I could find them for the fandoms I like
No.8076
>>8074>along with characters giving lectures about sex safety and consentGod i hate it so much. It always breaks the immersion and i feel like i'm reading about two reddit kinkster DnD players having sex (which is what those authors are). I've stopped reading fics solely because of this
>Original Works has a lot of pornsick men writing out autistic fantasiesIt's mostly that and some soulful smut by women
No.8107
Have you ever read a fanfic that’s dripping so heavily with purple prose and OOC bullshit that you want to leave a comment that just says “No”?
It happens to me alarmingly often.
No.8108
>>8107All the time. The ones that make me angriest are the ones that feel like a Riverdale-esque adaptation of comedic source material? I don't know if that description makes sense at all. The worst part is the number of comments praising it as though it's done something profound.
No.8109
>>8107I do this by making a bookmark that's just that. I keep it hidden, but it's a reminder to never click that bullshit again.
It's always the highest kudosed works too.
I abhor clicking on something that's just the right combination of what I like to read and it's highschool age female OCs painted sloppily over male canon. Picrel when it's blatant and in the first sentence.
No.8122
>>8107God yes and it pisses me off how people keep associating purple prose with good prose and quality.
It pains me to see that it even happened to a friend of mine whom I considered one of the best writers I have ever read before. She was perfect and yet still slightly evolving somehow. Then she changed fandoms so I didn't read her stuff for a few years since I am not into Herry Potter but recently she talked about how much better the average fics there were so I read a few of her short ones and it was all that.
I dunno maybe the characters talk like that, I never read the books and only watched the first 20 minutes of the first movie but I doubt it. Even if they would they wouldn't THINK like this. Especially not in mundane situations.
>>8108Common problem of mine as well. Like I never watched/read/heard of riverdale either but I assume you mean pretentious and serious? Most series I love are dramatic but comedy-heavy so the most common issue I run into reading fics is that they're devoid of humor and the typical way of talking and shenanigans that the characters usually display in canon.
It's like reading about a brooding philosopher Kamina or an moody Reigen lol

No.8169
>>8163Yeah I hate all of that shit lel, including genderbending. I assume it's mentally ill people doing it that have some anti-male paranoia despite being het so they have to fluff everything down to a lgbt-friendly uwu girl because otherwise the character would be scary or something. Cannot relate.
No.8175

No.8472
>>8469Why wouldn't they? It's a classic and beloved by people from all around the world. A lot of the outfits are pretty cute/iconic too, so I can see why people still draw it.
Aside from the pedo stuff/age gaps, there's barely any problematic content in the series, as far as I remember. I'm a CCS/CLAMP fan, so I'm biased tho.
No.8473
>>8472Clampfags unite! CCS also brought us YueTouya so while I prefer their edgier and gayer works I can't complain.
>>8469No offense but I don't even understand why this would be a question, shows from the 70s are getting new fan art it's not like there is a time limit for how long after a show you are allowed to be a fan. Also a weird one to call out might as well ask why people still make Sailor Moon or Inuyasha art.

>>8474Transformers Megop
The size difference varies per series but the bottom is always the designated female. Down to the anatomy. Does Optimus Prime have a shapely body, yes. But you'd think he weighed 40 pounds of silicon from how the fandom draws him.
It's all incredibly dumb because OP's still a 35ft robot made of absurd metal muscle. You have to go out of your way to slim him down to not resemble someone who can single highhandedly stop a human sized tank. Fortnite aside. Drives me insane because the whole appeal of giant robots is that they look like giant robots, not human women.

No.8484
>>8483Goes for every TF ship honestly especially James Robert's m/f in disguise comic.
Not a single pairing of equal heights or close to body type or shape. I like varied heights, but it was all traditional m/f with him and made way worse by fans. See Cygate.
I hate TFP Megastar because you could swap SS with arcee and there would hardly be a difference. Megastar's up there as one of my favorite pairings, but the fandom looks at their bodies and ignores any dynamic that isn't "big man top, thin bottom is a woman." And to that, I tend to focus on KOSS. Both of the bots match now.
No.8485
>>8484Smh, you’re not getting the battered wife appeal that it brings…
>but it was all traditional m/f with him and made way worse by fans. See Cygate.I thought they were lesbian loli coded because of their holoforms.
No.8486
>>8485The thing is- I want battered housewife Screamer. From G1 to Earthspark, I think it's a great relationship. But there's a limit to the over feminization of his character where everyone is yelling GET PREGNANT/SPARKED and making him literally into a woman. All she does is nag, whine, and want to have children with Megatron.
That's my problem.
There is no recognition that Megatron kept him around because he's smart, strong, and could actually fuck him (on the battlefield) if he let his guard down. There's no resistance. No scheming. No pettiness that makes his character, he's just a baby maker with a vagina. KOSS, oddly enough, doesn't have that problem despite Knock Out being every gay stereotype from 2006-2010. He could have done drag in the series (I mean he did drag race) and it would not have broken his character.
But for some reason, he isn't hit with the girl beam. Even in KoBd, he's beefed up. I don't get it. So by extension, so is SS.
No.8487
>>8486>But there's a limit to the over feminization of his character where everyone is yelling GET PREGNANT/SPARKED and making him literally into a woman.This is making me wish I still had that “you gonna light that pipe?” comic edit where it was Megs and Screamer kek (also reminds me of this)
I ship Overlord and Trepan though so I’m really not one to speak on this matter…
>he isn't hit with the girl beam. He’s too sassy gay to be the woman in the relationship, you can’t really write a woman like how you would write a sassy gay man but you can absolutely write Starscream into a nagging harpy if you really wanted to.
No.8488
>>8487If you haven't, the Aligned novels are great for how much thought is put into character building. Its focused near singularly on OP, Meg and Alpha Trion, but I love reading SS's moments because he comes off as legitimately wanting to kill Meg at every opportunity. I want them to hate each other, but in a bitter old marriage variety.
(I strongly recommend Exiles first before Covenant)
But because of the fandom specifically, I gravitate towards unheard of pairings or characters that don't have the biggest fandom behind them. Because the fans of the character are insanely more likely to keep them as is and explore or dig into who they are vs Jazzprowl, Rodisound, Dratchet.
The further you go from the fandom favs, the more you get how they look in canon even within fanfic(a particular Megasound fic upset me so much I almost ended up giving up on them)
