“You’re not going to last a week.” “You’re going to regret it.” “You’ll never get anywhere.”

These are the things people told me when I decided to start a Feminist anime blog. It’s the attitude that women everywhere naturally take when we enter a male-dominated space. Initially, I ignored these warnings as being overly pessimistic and cynical.

People were hungry for a Feminist perspective on anime. I’d be welcomed with opened arms. It’s the current year, after all.

At least, that’s what I told myself…

Last night, I was at home sipping a pumpkin spice frappucino (yay, Fall!), surrounded by by multiple cats. I thought I had a comfortable night ahead of me, consisting mostly of watching television while shaking my head disapprovingly. Sadly, I was dead wrong.

“Bzzz bzzz!” My phone vibrated from a Twitter notification, which was weird because I almost never got any (can’t imagine why no one would want to talk to me, to be honest). It was a reply to a post I had made earlier.

Excellent, I thought to myself. Someone must have finally taken notice of my insightful social commentary!

However, what I saw when I opened the Twitter app made my jaw drop…

It was picture of an anime schoolgirl holding a gun, aiming it toward the viewer.

The meaning of this was abundantly clear to me: the otaku misogynists were threatening me with physical violence to silence my opinions… and they were dead serious.

“Bzz bzzz!” Shortly after, I received another Twitter notification… then another…. then another.

Much to my shock and dismay, all of the replies that followed were similar in nature. Violent threats from angry pissbaby otaku who were upset that a woman was giving her opinions on anime.

One by one, they came pouring in. Dozens of threats and insults directed at me! Poor little old me who never wanted to do anything but make the world a better place, free of hate and bigotry.

I just didn’t understand. It was all so incomprehensible…

Until I saw someone quote the tweet that was causing all of this fuss…

Once I saw what they were responding to, it all began to make perfect sense…

In case you haven’t seen the genius original tweet yet (by the way, if you’re not following me on Twitter, you definitely should!), here’s a screenshot of it.

To me, this tweet makes perfect sense. Grape was a ghastly beast that only cared about reducing women to the status of decoration and had no love for actual women, be they human or penguin. I just couldn’t fathom how an individual could see this any other way.

Then I was hit with a sudden epiphany. These creepy Otaku cared about animals more than they cared about human women! They had so little regard for the lives of women, they were completely willing to murder a woman simply for speaking ill of an awful penguin.

I also realized that this could be expanded to Otaku who treat their “2D waifus” like real women. It’s likely that they literally care more about 2-dimensional cartoon women than real-life flesh and blood women.

Our lives mean nothing to these savages.

Pictured above: A typical anime pervert loser spending money on a fictional character when he should be spending money on an actual woman instead. Note the young girl in the back looking on in disgust.

This is the world that moe and ecchi anime have wrought for us: a world where men ignore the plight of actual women in favor of spending money on anime girl garbage like hug pillows and large-breasted anime figures. It makes me sick just thinking about it.

To any women reading this, I ask for your assistance. Point out everything you see in the world of anime that’s in any way sexist, racist, homophobic, etc. Be annoying. Be persistent. Be nasty. We will have our voices heard, and we will get our way in the end. If we have to kick our legs and scream like little toddlers to make it happen, then so be it.

And finally, to the male anime losers: I hope you know you’re never going to get laid again if you stay on this path… not that sex is supposed a reward or anything. If you expect sex just from doing the right things, then that makes you an entitled creep. To actually get sex, you need to also be handsome and preferably rich as well… you know, at least one of those.

Anyway… I forgot what my point here was, but you should be ashamed every time you masturbate.

You can ignore this stuff all you want, but in the end, blocking out all of the bad things in society won’t get anywhere. If you’ve read this entire article, I sincerely thank you, and I ask that you share it everywhere where Feminism is an important topic. Get the message out there that anime is turning men into misogynistic and violent thugs.

If we don’t try to fix things now… it might soon be too late.
