Really? I was under the impression that whatever role they played could be substituted by another genus. They’re still assholes, though.
INB4 the same could be accused of humans (with or without increased validity)

Because it’s a different type of animation from western animation.
Yes, it has romance anime that isn’t hated by everyone.
But romance shouldn’t always be exclusive to anime and live action. And also when romance gets into a cartoon, people will cry bad writing when it comes to shipping or how a cartoon is never about shipping or how shipping ruins the story.

Anime is still animation. To disqualify it for no good reason makes it look like you are being needlessly picky.
And from what I’ve seen, people don’t mind romance in animation. They care about how its handled, and it sounds like it’s handled very poorly way too often. Needless break-ups, refusal to have a healthy relationship on screen between characters, thinking that once they’re a couple, people will only talk about their partner, ect. It’s not the fans who are the problem, but the writers.

Didn’t faust say that Netflix executives rejected her cartoon because “girls don’t watch cartoons”?
That type of mindset is probably why you don’t have that many romance cartoons in the west

Romance isn’t always for girls. And corps don’t seem to realize that.
Guess the decision is only shows with romantic ships (to make the shippers go gaga over constantly) or no romance at all (even if shippers ship) when it comes to western animation.
There’s no hope for the romance genre to be loved anymore. No matter how the creator incorporates it, no matter how the creator mixes both romance and other genres other than SoL, there will be people who whine about romance.

Didn’t a few action cartoons get cancelled because they had a major female audience?
“How dare those girls like shows about handsome athletic guys filled with energy, that’s not what the market said they would like, I am gonna cancel the show to teach them a lesson”

I don’t like how there are places where when they sell soft drinks, they exclusively have either Coke products or Pepsi products but never both. I think it may be competition, but it’ll just encourage people who don’t like that kind of soda to look for another substitute when they don’t want to. Just sell both, what’s the absolute harm and the place will still make money regardless.

I never really thought about that. Most places I’ve been to sell coca cola company soft drinks. Not too often i see pepsi co products being sold. Taco Bell and KFC as far as i know are the only place that has Pepsi. Could be a rights thing? Idk…Why not have both?

If we’re talking about good romantic stories, I think the best ones to me are WALL·E, City Lights and Casablanca even though the third one is very bitter.
I could add Edwuard Scissorhand.

At least around here, usually it’s because if you have a contract with one supplier for your business, they give you a fridge and you’re not supposed to put products from the competitors in it - you need to have another fridge for that.

Honestly, the “power corrupts” ideology is just there to excuse people in power who do wrong. While power makes things tempting, it doesn’t stop people from holding themselves accountable of their own actions, or asking themselves if what they’re doing is right or wrong. And not having power doesn’t stop power-hungry people from being corrupted and doing immoral things to get power.
