if miracles exist, then the girl you hate is right. if miracles exist, then that means it's your own fault she's with someone else. if miracles exist, then that means you weren't doomed from the start. if miracles exist, then utena didn't win by chance. if miracles exist, you doomed yourself. if miracles exist, then the girl you love is right

Short rant-

I love reading fics about romance but I mainly pick them due to the presence of my favorite characters. Characterization is the most important to me, and while I don't need it to be accurate to the canon (the fan culture has brought some aspects I enjoy) it needs to be roughly believable with the canon. While I enjoy Ukyo/Ryoga the most, aside from the reasons I think they'd make a good pair, this is primarily because the two of them are my two faves. Hence why I enjoy the odd Ranma/Akane fic (tho I dont seek it out) or Ukyo/Ranma. Plenty of Ukyo centric fics, Ryoga centric fics, Pantyhose Taro centric fics, the odd Konatsu centric fic.

Anyway this is my way of saying I'm finally getting into Ranma/Ryoga. I've always loved both of them, and they have so much potential, but the way most of the authors write them put me too far off the ship for years. However, I'm finally finding some good fucking fics, and I'm really enjoying them

IDGAF if the women in my fiction are empowering or aspirational, I'm an adult, I don't need role models, I want the women in my fiction to be interesting, and if that involves being pathetic, hypocritical, amoral, or trapped in a delightfully dysfunctional relationship so be it

dunmeshi is funny bc chilchuck is exactly the same as every other 'looks like a child but is an adult' anime character, people just don't recognize that because of his gender + the story tone. eventually someone somewhere will be called out for making porn of him though

sapphic shampoo is like. ok. i know that internalized queerphobia is a leading theme in r/2 so shampoo calling akane a pervert for loving girltype ranma isnt like DEFINITIVE proof that she couldn't be wlw But like. literally what is the interest in making her gay ToT how does her story get more interesting how does anyone's story get more interesting how does that embellish the themes. as the story stands, shampoo is one of many representations of societal hostility to queer people, to ranma's transness and akane's bisexuality, so like. ok i guess if youre a shampoo diehard and you want her to be gay thats fine but in a story where queerness is so critical and there are so many characters whose queerness is critical to understanding them and is evident in nearly everything they do, what. is the reason. for saying shampoo is gay

i like to pretend i already died and asked god to send me back to earth so i can swim in lakes again and see mountains and get my heart broken and love my friends and cry so hard in the bathroom and go grocery shopping 1,000 more times. and that i promised i would never forget the miracle of being here

they are so fucked for doing carousel and amusement park imagery for kaoru/henmi like i KNOW this predates utena by quite a lot but by reminding me of one of the hardest episodes of any anime to watch they are inadvertently drilling in the age gap :| i see an amusement park and i immediately think 'that grown man needs to stay away from her'

less “some people have an excuse for their weirdness” and more “someone’s weirdness isn’t hurting you”
