You only half-admitted you were wrong though; the other half consisted of you going on about how "Japan has a habit of trying to normalize pedophila".

Fictional characters can't consent; they don't exist. This belief likely stems from my obsession with setting stark boundaries between what's fiction, and what's reality; mostly as a reaction to various moral panics perpetrated by people who just cannot tell the difference between the two, and...

No duh the backbone of anime is Shonen; I was never arguing against that. But Shonen aside, Harems and Isekais are major contenders right now, compared to everything else. Watching the show, "Often mistaken as a young child" plays out as just a joke about her height; that's it. Also, the guy...

"Dude", I don't "hang out" around anyone. Shonen is the most popular genre of anime; of course Isekai would fail to measure up, especially compared to juggernauts of the genre like Dragon Ball and One Piece, the number one and number two best-selling mangas, ever. And Gundam is the biggest name...

Compared to what, exactly? At the very least, it beats out Mecha by a country mile. Also keep in mind, harem elements can be found in many genres, particularly Isekai; which is rather popular right now, to put it mildly.

Or Love Hina, or Ranma 1/2, or Inuyasha, or... look, I don't like it either, but Taiga isn't anywhere near as bad as all that, and she mellows out as the series progresses. The show also isn't afraid to let her be the butt of the joke sometimes: That said, you clearly haven't watched much...

To each their own, I suppose; it's not like I don't have my own personal preferences.

Off-topic; I just figured I should recommend it to you as an example of what I think is a good romance anime, without all the things you don't want to see. Seeing as you said you don't watch anime specifically to avoid those things.

You ever seen Toradora? It's a romance anime that has no lolis, no incest, and no harem. I think you'd like it.

Fair enough; I just don't see it the way you do, I guess. In much the same way I can accept functional giant robots, even though by all logic they should collapse under their own weight, I can also accept that a guy can have a romantic relationship with his little sister (who many or may not be...

But none of it is real; the rules fiction operates by are completely different from those of reality. All one really needs to do is learn how to separate fiction from reality, and I see no reason to take issue with the former.

Oh those aren't even the weirdest fetishes some people are into; the things I've come across in the decades I've lurked on the internet get downright confounding at times. For example, you'd think nobody would be getting off to the idea of having their genitals covered with bees and stung...
