For some reason I keep getting hit tweets on this account, and new followers as a result, so quick PSA:
‼️ I'm a shotacon and I tweet about whatever I want on this account, I just happen to be obsessed with ER2 currently. I don't endorse any of the things I like in fiction irl.
Reg is drawn in an art style that not everyone will find cute (speaking as one of these people lmao). I think the only shotacons Roman *wouldn't* especially appeal to are ones who don't like preteens and prefer younger shotas, but even then. There's just a lot to like about him.
Compared to recently popular shotas: Tokiyuki is too OP for the vulnerability angle to work as much and he mainly appeals to oniishota fans. Lloyd de Saloum has a particular body type that is even more niche than regular shotas and puts off normies.
a romantic relationship with Talia for the oneeshota fans, a prominent relationship with D for the oniishota fans, a stylish design with lots of elements shotacons find cute/sexy without being too much, and on top of all that is a genuinely well written and compelling character.
I'm thinking about this "Roman Carax was engineered in a lab to be the perfect shota" thing and I think it genuinely checks out on like almost every angle. His appeal is broad: He's scrappy enough to appeal to brat lovers, vulnerable enough to people who want shotas to be dom'd,
