"People bring up Usagi Drop because they're all triggered by the ending of what was a father figure teaching a daughter about the truths of the world and she then decided to go date him. Like, oh no! So turrible!"
It's terrible because it's unrealistic and ridiculous, a child raised normaly wouldn't grow with romantic feelings for their parents, in the same way the real childhood friends rarely have romantic feelings for each other, being treated closer to siblings.
"I mean fuck, these people apparently have never heard of an actual classic Hikaru Genji, which many stories channel. This practice is really common in history, and only modernly have people for some reason become averse to it for seemingly no reason. I mean, shit, it's not like this manga is Murcilago where you actively encourage the loli to be bad (even there, it's still pretty wholesome all things given)."
Some people like stories like that for whatever reason, but many actually hate them.
"This practice is really common in history, and only modernly have people for some reason become averse to it for seemingly no reason"
Context friend maybe you should learn of it then you'd understand that it's not "for no reason"
This practice is common in history because dying early is common in history, because overvaluing one's lineage is also common in history, because old farts ahd way too much power bback in history and they wanted to ensure the survival of their family as soon as they could. These practices were ususally common in noble houses and were copied by some peasants, noble houses believed in purity of blood, and they would sometimes even get incestuous if it meant that they would keep their blood strong. Because back then it was believed that people from same family always inherited the ability their family was known for. Back then we didn't have science to know how genetics work, so they spread this Idea that some people's lineage were simply born superior. So they need to maintain that superiority at all costs.
And they would do literally everything to mantain their power, even using their daughters as money and make agreements with old farts by selling their "daughter" for political gains.
Knowing this would you really use the "common practice in history" as a valid point in this argument?
