      i mind when there’s some weird-ass rationalisation for the creator’s barely disguised fetish. when asked why 2B was styled that way, yoko taro said “i like looking at girls”. when asked why quiet was styled like that, hideo kojima said “when you find out the reason, you will be ashamed of your words and deeds” only for the reason to be fucking nonsense.

      just own it man, geez.

      I mean I do and I don’t. Attractive characters can exist, that’s ok, that’s standard. But fan service is cringe and probably exclusionary.

    i always liked how bleach’s creator justified fanservice, instead of some long-winded in-universe reasoning he just went “i like big titties”

    Who wrote this shit

    Bruh, were you not paying attention to the name HIDEO KOJIMA appearing on your screen at the start and end of every single mission? He really wanted you to know it was his idea.

    That’s not what “fan service” is. Fan service is a reboot of a series (like That 70’s Show), which is shit, but it has a couple of the old castmembers in it. Fans don’t want titties, everybody wants titties. Titties is a “everybody service”.
