huh the author and artist are women

The mangaka is a girl-
The original LN Author's gender is unknown, though they go by the pen name "Aneko Yusagi", but a bunch of idiots see the former and just assume the latter.

aw man, I expect better from Mother's Basement,

You really shouldn't-although I don't know all the details, he often times gets paid to advertise stuff from Crunchyroll, and considering how hard CR is trying to push the series, and his status as an influencer, I can almost guarantee you he was cut a check to shill it.

Alternatively he just has poo poo tastes :v:

Was it Mother's Basement who sometimes got weird about underaged stuff, or was that another anime youtuber?

That's Digibro, who's probably a pedophile (and just a creep in general)

Babysitter Super Sleuth posted:

"Hate-watching" is a term invented so that people who are invested in the idea of having Good Taste don't have to admit that their taste is, in fact, bad, and at its worst is incredibly tiresome and performative

I mean, watching bad stuff to riff on with friends is valid, and can make the experience of watching a bad movie or show much more tolerable. But one should not confuse this as ironic enjoyment-you are just enjoying it while spending time with your friends/family.

I think Roots is terrible as well, just... boring. It's like "Want to know how Haseo got to this point where he became the Legendary PKK?" "Not really." "Good, because it's dull."

Let's be real though, Sign thrives on its soundtrack.

Roots isn't bad, so much as not much of interest. It's a 5/10 show.

As for good sign music tho https://youtu.be/KrYM4EfAO9I

Best Digimon was the one with a bancho middle-schooler who was constantly punching both peeps and digimons alike. Plus a Bancholeomon.

As for hero concepts: Hero who uses armored toes for cheap crotch shots.

As a teen I liked Digimon Savers quite a bit, but when I rewatched it a year ago, I found that it didn't hold up nearly as well as Tamers or even Adventure-mainly due to the lack of character development, especially on Masaru and Yoshino's ends. Also the ending doesn't really make much sense in retrospect. But I do have to agree that Bancholeomon rules and Kurata is a great villain to hate

Cleaners erase the Japanese text and draw back in any details/gaps that might occur as a result-it's very important, otherwise your fan translation will look like crap.

I think the desfinction between the other two is that proofreaders fix typos and grammatical errors, and a quality checker makes sure terms,names,font, and style, are consistent in the work from previous chapters.

In some LN translation groups, proofreaders are actually fixing up chapters worth of machine translations because there is no actual translator.
That was definitely not what I'd signed up for.

Ouch. You have my sympathy.

Really, I think the author being a woman made her feel like she could write Naofumi's true feelings down without fear of being labeled a misogynist herself. Instead, people choose to misgender her since obviously a woman would never write such a thing and it must be a man instead. This goes to show how the haters of the show are really the ones harboring some of these ill feelings towards women and projecting them as hard as they can.

:ironicat:
The mangaka is a girl.
The original author, Aneko Yusagi, is just a Pen Name, and has not personally disclosed their gender. They use the pronoun 'boku', which is typically more masculine, but they apparently identify as genderless.

The people claiming that they're a woman are playing a bad game of telephone, and also ignoring the obvious fact that women can make sexist, or troubling works as well.

Yes, the author was writing about a character, not themselves.

Ah that makes sense. The author's gender identity being unknown is still the case, though.
