What do you think about Fujoshi pushing their ship as if it's already canon??

I saw some Fujoshi pushing or forcing their thoughts as if their ship was canon. for example there are Mika x Yuu shipers from Owari no seraph or Reki x Langa shipers from Sk8. And Many other anime don't have the Yaoi/shounen Ai tag but they make it look like their ship is canon.

what do you think about this? it ruin the show or not?

it doesn’t ruin a show for me, but it is pretty weird how some of them try to label it as a “head-canon” especially when certain aspects of a character make it clear they don’t swing that way; but I say let sleeping dogs lie

not the show. but it makes me leave a fandom faster as @NinoHaruhara wants to steal Kanna from @Gween_Gween xD

jokes aside, shipping wars/Fujoshi that thinks their crackship is actually canon are some of the worst things in a fandom for me.

I don't allow some fujoshis to ruin my enjoyment of a show. I don't take them seriously in the first place. I laugh at those who consider their ship canon.

For example, TG re author gave a chapter dedicated to a sex scene and pissed off a lot of fujoshis. Same thing is gonna happen with MHA and I am gonna laugh at all those "toxic fujoshis".

Imagine taking fujoshis seriously.

I really don't think you should be blaming others if you avoid shows based on other people's head cannon, that honestly seems like a problem with you rather than anyone else.

Regarding the threads topic, why would anyone care about that? Let people think whatever they want, I really don't see how it could negatively effect your opinion on an anime unless you don't know how to form your own opinions on the anime you watch, which again, seems like a problem with you rather than anybody else.

Tbh, when it comes to ship war/waifu war, you better just focus on what you like instead of minding other shippers. Regardless of their behavior.
Canon is canon. You don't take others opinion as canon. If they like to think/pretend/interpret their ship as canon then so be it. The fact still stands. It's not canon. Everyone knows it. They know it. So if someone say A x B practically canon. It means they just ship them that hard. Don't take it literally.

Anyways, so yeah, you shouldn't bother yourself with them.

And btw, just curious, by "pushing", were they personally told/forced you, to believe Mika x Yuu is canon or you just read their opinion and got offended yourself?

I'm not blaming anyone. This sort of stuff affects the reputation of good anime. Most people would get turned off from watching an anime with a reputation of having a rabid fujoshi fanbase. If you're not then good for you.

Other people's ships and opinion's on series shouldn't affect your own opinion. If you think it will, here's a brilliant idea, don't read comments! It's really that simple! You can't get turned off or pissed off if you don't read other people's comments on whichever series these 'shipping wars' are an issue. And, honestly, why get mad over someone else's head cannon? You are you, they are NOT you. Why would their personal opinion affect your own? I, honestly, don't understand this...

Well, I dislike that some people are so extreme to push their ships ngl, but the same goes for straight people that push their straight ship as it was canon, it goes for both gay and straight ships, don't act like straight people don't do this shit, because they do, and it is also annoying af, an easy example would be Subaru x Rem, shit's not going to happen, then why are people allowed to ship that (as it seems that no one tells the shippers otherwise) but not something like Subaru x Felix? It's also not going to happen but if someone's happy with that head canon let them be, shipping Subaru x Felix or x Rem is as fine as shipping Subaru x Emilia, the only thing that changes in those ships is that one will be canon (that doesn't stop you from having a head canon though).

As for the shows, people like that don't ruin the show, allowing them to ruin you a show is very low from you tbh, if it's that easy for you to dislike a show then there's something bad about your patience in the first place. And rarely enough if someone would make me want to quit an anime would be the haters of the ships, they are usually more toxic than both straight and gay shippers.

doesn't bother me in the least, let alone ruins a show, that's just ridiculous.

in fact, i have not once experienced a "fujoshi" or a fan's attempt at pushing a ship that was even remotely forcefull, or anything but them having a good time with their passion towards a series and its characters. on the other hand, these obnoxious threads that disparage a particular kind of ship (which is absolutely harmless and inconsequential) are incredibly frequent and relentless.

personally i find it sad that these ships concerning fictional characters\drawings are so threatening to some folk, but to each their own i guess.

It's funny you list Owari no Seraph and Sk8 as examples because both ships you list are actually semi-canon or at least canon on one side. A show doesn't have to have the Yaoi tag to depict gay characters or a same-gender relationship y'know.

Just stay away from fujoshi side of the fandom if you hate ships so much, mind your own business and stay in your own space. Let people have fun.

Well I guess its kinda redundant but I don't care much coz it has absolutely 0 effect on what is canon - and I think anyone with more than a single brain cell already understands it. And from what I've understood over the years concepts such as being bros or bro-codes like bros before hoes don't really have a female equivalent. So I kinda understand why girls who probably haven't spent much time with boys may confuse it for something romantic.

How would it ruin the show? It's not like their headcanons affect reality. And if they're being obnoxious I just ignore them.

Who cares. Shipping is dumb, people get toxic when their ship doesn't turn out to be reality. Just because characters/people interact doesn't mean they'll end up being together, even though shippers refuse to believe that.

Man like what's up with the recent uptake in fujo hate in here? It isn't something that's even exclusive to them a lot of Yuri and hetero shippers also do that shit a lot, and saying that they shouldn't make those ships because there isn't a particular tag is pretty hypocritical when a lot of people make ships in shounens or other series that don't have any romance tag either.

Personally the only type of shippers that I generally avoid are the ones constantly hating on the canon love interest outside of that let people have their fun.

I agree with this. I feel like ppl just uncomfortable with gay ships. It should not be bothering them to the point that it ruins the show for them.
Jul 19, 2021 9:40 AM
Why you should care too much in the first place? As long death threats aren't involved, i don't give a fuck.

Fun fact: you could say the same thing about Iroha and Yui with Hachiman from Oregairu, many people did the same thing but I wonder why u never mentioned them.

I usually don't watch anime which attract fujoshi. They're not more or less annoying than other people being adamant about their own interpretation, I think. I'm usually in the "just leave them be" camp, sometimes it's easier, sometimes not.

So, no, it doesn't ruin the show for me.

I only noticed an aggressive/delusional person in the Rinne no Lagrange and Yuru Camp subforums once.

It's fine as long as they stay in their lane and are not pushing agendas to anyone not sharing the same interest as them.

But I've seen quite too many gatekeepers and fanpols from that side to not be irritated when coming across one.

Both of the shows you mentioned are pretty obvious BL bait, but whatever

Also, I think part of the problem people have with fujoshis or yuri shippers is that they assume every character is automatically straight and thus gay ships are bending character's sexualities. But straight is not the default. There is no default. Any character could be any sexuality and if they haven't explicitly said which team(s) they play for, then you don't actually know and are just guessing.

People can ship whatever the hell they want IMO. It's only when people force their beliefs on others that piss me off. By this, I don't mean people harmlessly tweeting/posting about how they want Eren/Mikasa to be canon. It's people who reply to those posts like "Eren/Historia is the better ship, your ship sucks"

It's less to do with BL ships and more to do with ship bashing. An anime shouldn't need to have Shonen Ai in the tags in order for it to only be "okay" to ship people of the same gender. Very rarely are sexualities in anime confirmed. If people wanna make Mikasa bisexual, go for it. As long as you're not putting down people for their ship it doesn't matter to me.
