Yeah but seeing a character that's suicidal, a minor and struggling with so much shit not be taken in full seriousness and is rather being sexualized is hard to digest and is quite disturbing man...
Ofc its the author's character they can do whatever they want but it's morally questionable, especially since now it just feels like his character just being used as a " cute depressed af pitiful broke boy" for secualizing him rather than taking these problems seriously.
I do not know how to express what I'm thinking properly in words, but I hope you got the gist of what I'm trying to say.
.... you do understand that fiction DOES affect reality tho..... u can preach as much as u want that it doesn't but if u see no issue in what the author is doing good ur just as bad. here's an example of fiction affecting reality or just u as a reader,, if u read a chapter from this and felt happy bc hooni was happy that's fiction affecting you..... hooni may be a drawing but ur emotions u get from reading abt him r very real..... now if u put this in context of the sexualisation of hooni and u were in anyways ok w it or even worse u liked it that's fiction affecting u once again and normalising the sexualisation of literal children.... do u see the issue here or do I need to be more blunt to get it through ur thick skull that it's wrong to sexualise minors both real or fake.
Its supposed to be comedy and You dont need to take this story too serious. In Japan the whole depressed anime boy/girl can be used as a turn on thing too haha. Dont bully me nagatoro could be a great example, the show is not trying to say that bullying is okay, is only to appeal the bullying fantasy/kink. You shouldn't be shaming people for wanting to see hooni being degraded shdjdh I'm pretty sure no one would want a real person being treated that way, at least not me. But if it's a fictional character that does not represent anyone in real life? Yes, I have no problem with that
In a lot of countries(america included) they understand that fictional minor characters are NOT real and lolishota is LEGAL because no children is being sexually exploited. If fiction can affect reality then why no one prohibits games that have violence and murders??? I dont see people robbing banks because GTA affected them lmfao
but it's still wrong and loads of people actively avoid it because it's wrong- the only people who participate in lolicon/ shotacon and such r people who r into it both in reality and fiction. and also people go out of their way and act those actions out like murder and bank robbery,, it's possible to mentally sexualise a child or for someone to draw a child they know irl in a sexual position, sure it's a drawing but now it's a real child being put at harm. How do u still not understand that it's wrong??
The whole depressed anime boy/ girl being a turn on is exactly the problem I'm referring to but ig I can't kink shame, make hentai of whatever the fuck you want, but season 1 of this wasn't a hentai and it was genuinely quite realistic and it was inspiring to see hooni who was so depressed slowly get better. It gave the vibes of a slice of life, coming of age manga dealing depression. However, the second season being very lacklustre and diving more and more into sexualizing him is very off putting. There's nothing wrong with you still liking this or having no problems with this, I'm just stating why some of us feel its problematic. If hooni was degraded or whatever in a hentai, nobody will and should complain since it was just purely porn, but this,, this is a story about a boy who is slowly coming out of depression man, making depression a kink isn't a good look in here of all places...
Oh you're kinda right. The first part was kinda serious buuuut... remember how it started? With Hooni going on "dates" with ugly bastards? And the suggestive covers? Hooni was always being sexualized
I guess the author tried to make a serious story at first but his horny side won haha he always was a nsfw from the start

Its cute that everyone is defending Hooni, but you guys need to remember that Hooni doesnt exist and the author himself has sexualized and keeps sexualizing Hooni, which is totally fine since it's his character lmaooooo
