The people freaking out over this proves that Anime/Otaku culture has only superficially gone mainstream. If anything, the hatred against actual Otakus has risen, with more and more superficial "fans" growing by the numbers. If someone posted this 8-10 years ago, no would care.
something that pisses me off is how in romance animes or vns they have the “dominant” girl as an option but they always end up dumbing her down to a submissive obedient softy in the end
