| Does Rape Scenes ruin a show for you? |
  |
| not really the real world is fucked up so why not anime as well. |
  |
| So far, I havent watched an anime or show in general that had a rape scene that had ruined the experience for me. |
| :v |
| No, why would it? I'm not stupid, this is like asking if having a death scene makes a series bad. |
| Yes of course. If a Cute Girls Doing Cute Things anime suddenly had a scene like that I would drop it immediately. |

| It's just one of many darkest things in the world the society like to sweep under the rug..and pretend that the world is a nice place.. The world is as worse as it is being portrayed in heavenly delusions.. We are all locked in this planet.. It's like a big jail and people follow whatever politicians order like inmates do in prison |
 |
| rape scene is like in every seinen so no |
| Definitely not, but context really matters. I can honestly accept anything in shows as long as I feel like there is truly a reason for why they exist within the context of the story they are trying to tell. It can be a pretty critical part of what a mangaka is trying to portray about a person, societal structure, or specific situation/environment, so as long as I can buy into the context for why it's there I have no problem with it. |
| Blanks. |
| Depends on if it is glorified or vilified. |
| this is a weird thread idk fr like this is incriminating to me but apparently fate has them and it has never been "cancelled" or "dragged" for it. its just fiction and as long as the creators arent real rapists then no it doesnt matter. real victims tho could get triggered seeing something like that so it depends on who you ask |
 |
| No. If a show is good, then one scene or element won't make it bad or ruin it for me. Besides, usually that kind of scenes are presented as something very bad, or to make a villain's image even more negative. That's why, even though it's fiction, the message is clear: that act is unacceptable, and sexual abusers deserve to be hated and punished by the society. Khashishi said: Many anime fans would rather say: "depends on whether the criminal is male or female", sadly.Depends on if it is glorified or vilified. |

| does a character's arm getting chopped off ruin a show for me? no a rape scene is the same, it can be pure shock factor, it can be extremely disturbing, or it can be just there cause the author was a horny son of a gun, in every case, It's no different than a particularly violent scene. and unless you have been through something like that yourself, I genuinely don't get why it would affect you more than violence. |

If a Cute Girls Doing Cute Things anime suddenly had a scene like that I would drop it immediately. wait... if a CGDCT does it of all thing, I would not be able to stop. I would be way too curious on how that even happened, and what the hell kind of CGDCT would have something like that. |

APolygons2 said: That's what I don't get about some part of so-called "anime community". You can find people ranting, seething, shouting about that type of scenes, but not only they watch shows with them, but have no problem with equally "wrong" looking scenes. It's genuinely surreal to see a person getting hyped about scenes with limbs getting chopped off or children getting slaughtered by a monster, but at the same time yelling about how other kinds of controversial scenes are unacceptable, lol.a rape scene is the same, it can be pure shock factor, it can be extremely disturbing, or it can be just there cause the author was a horny son of a gun, in every case, It's no different than a particularly violent scene. |
| If it's a "sad" rape scene yes because I don't like sad serious stuff :( But 9/10 I don't really care because the scene looks like it came out of a hentai so I just roll my eyes. |

| rape scenes make the anime better for me |
    |
| I am not some overly sensitive pussy who gets triggered so no. Now if a rape scene is put into a show to portray the horrors of the world or the horror a character faced then, it makes the show even better (from a realism perspective). Spoilers to Goblin Slayer, Dororo and Redo of Healer. (I mean not really for one of them but still calling it as one) |
| Does murder ruin a show for you? Bullying?? a negligent driver that kills someone??? I'm sure it doesn't, so why would rape do it? It's just a different type of violence. I'm never going to get how naturalized killing is, but so many other crimes generate so much noice. Well, in my case I don't give a fk about anything if it's well done, I like dark and violent stuff but it needs to have a bit of taste, there is plently of gory and edgy garbage. Everything is a resource, the enjoyment depends on the execution. So to answer your question if it would ruin a show for me, IT DEPENDS. BTW, I'm guessing this thread is because of a "certain show" that is airing right now (I might be wrong) and it didn't ruined it for me at all. It was shocking and unexpected, it fits the atmosphere of the show but it didn't blew my mind. |

| No, it doesn't ruin anything for me. But I noticed in many reviews and replies in the forums, there are people who become furious, raise a huge stink, boycott the anime/manga or belittle others who do tolerate sexual assault scenes. I mean, it's okay to have your opinion and dislike it and not watch it, but it's a bit much when it becomes their life's mission to not move on from it. I'm fine with rape scenes and most of the time they are crucial to a plot or character development, and add feeling or depth to the content. It's not like most of us enjoy rape, but it's something that exists... Unfortunately had it happen to me in real life long ago and it affects me to this day. But I don't act out about rape/assault in fictional story-telling so it's frustrating to keep tolerating the complainers. **Side note - my forum pfp is Keyaru from Redo of Healer for a reason. Because I have no qualms about rubbing it in people's faces that rape in media doesn't bother me. |

| If people are ok with murder scenes I don't see why would they have problem with them. Someone oversensitivity is their own problem not the fault of anime. |
  ❤ Incessant Rain ❤ “Can you let me have some fun this time?”  |
| I mean, I hate seeing rape scenes and I really rather not have that shit in my anime period, but it honestly depends on how it's depicted and portrayed in the series itself for it to truly become an genuine issue with the series for me or not. And besides, I could always just look it up and make sure it doesn't have such content before watching it, anyways. |
| Depends on the context, if it is handled seriously and actually adds something to the story then it would not “ruin it” for me, but if they only show it for lewd purposes, then yes, it is f’d up. |

| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Kafka, Fu Xuan, Jingliu, Topaz and Huohuo. |
| If it's in a show I llike, then I have no problems with it. If it's in a show I dislike, then it becomes really problematic. |
| Overall I find rape very uncomfortable to watch but it only ruins the show if it's romanticized and the victim falls in love with the rapist. |
 |
| My second favourite anime this season and I forgot about this. Probably because it was so subtly done (I can recall only 2-3 frames of the act) and it was realistic given the setting. Didn't shock me as much when watching it. I re-read the manga chapter (because people said the anime toned it down) and was a bit shocked to find out that |

Dragevard said: Yeah, most of the time it's really frustrating. I don't understand why, but anime often depicts these sensitive issues in a sexual manner, and that's really disturbing and disheartening. I mean, it's not about having a problem with a rape scene if it serves a purpose in the story, but sexualizing suffering is just downright horrible. Does Rape Scenes ruin a show for you? |

| S2E6 of Game of Thrones featured an attempted gang rape. This episode has an 8.9 rating on IMDb. Are weebs too sensitive? Are Game of Thrones fans better at seperating reality from fiction? Or maybe weebs are the last remaining vanguards of morality and decency in the world? kek. sorry couldn't write that with a straight face. |

| Usually not but it depends how it's portrayed. If it's just for giggles and fanservice then I'm not a big fan of it. |
| No, if its potrayed correctly Like Heavenly Delusion, Heres the pb was Robin doing it !, It was completely out of nowwhere with any prior nuance and doesn't go with his character...Mangaka just wrote the scene only for the shock value ..It ruined the show for me On the other hand Perfect Blue, heres the rape scene was done so brilliantly that it captures the real horror of rape, it evoked my gut feeling, make me feel raw symphathy for the victim and raw hatred for the culprits ..On the top of that that scene added layer to the story |

| Not at all. It actually make me want to watch the anime more. Sendwo said: Never, But I have never seen such anime that contains rape scenes. Can any of you suggest some, so i can watch. |

As a joke or to mock modern society or some other dark reason? Thank you for your kind words regarding my past SA experiences. 💜 As for my rating of Redo… this may be an unpopular opinion, and I’m sure some will think I’m crazy or weird (I don’t care lol) but I actually really liked the story. I suppose I look at the psychology part of Keyaru in a deeper way and understood his actions and agreed with the path he took. It was more than just seeing it as an anime with lots of gratuitous sex. He was a beautiful and gentle boy with amazing powers that should have been respected and valued. He had dreams of being one of the revered heroes in the kingdom. Instead his dreams were crushed, he was taken advantage of, treated like nothing, raped, mentally and physically tortured for years. That sort of prolonged abuse affects people and they cope with it in their own ways. It traumatized and changed him from the precious cinnamon roll he was into a powerful and revenge driven psychopath. That’s interesting to me. It made me feel something. His actions are simple to understand. The ones who were truly evil destroyed him and he was in agony. He wanted to destroy them and inflict pain in return for what they did to him. It’s a normal reaction to want to get justice. And yeah he took joy in it and is pretty much crazy now. He hadn’t felt joy or goodness in life in a very long time. Hurting and killing those for revenge that committed atrocities against him brings happiness and satisfaction, having lots of sex (not the rape) brings him immediate pleasure in an otherwise empty and painful world. I guess I just believe they deserved everything they got, even the rapes whether done by him personally or when he made the others do it. I never actually thought of him as evil at any point because I felt bad for him, I understood his pain. I’m eager for the second season so he can finish achieving his goals and revenge. |

| Depend. Sometimes it can be very shocking (in a good way) and sometimes its just the writers trying to hard to be edgy. |

ITouchGrass1 said: Thanks for your concern, I apprciate it, but I have seen the show very attentively, even if they implied it earlier as you said it wasn't nuanced enough to convince me thinking Robin as a suspicious guy who would commit such a heinous act, they easily would have done the scene with a random bandit, that would have been more believableable..TaifSux said: It was actually lightly implied earlier in the show that Robin was engaged with Kiriko in an explicit way. You can actually see more proof of it in episode 12, as Robin is for some reason shocked to see Kiruko, but not in the way you would expect most people to be. Shocked like someone who was supposed to be dead is actually alive, rather than being shocked in the way you would as if you saw your loved one again after years of separation. I urge to rewatch Robin's reaction as he first sees Kiruko in episode 12 to judge for yourself if that does or does not raise suspicion about his character.No, if its potrayed correctly Like Heavenly Delusion, Heres the pb was Robin doing it !, It was completely out of nowwhere with any prior nuance and doesn't go with his character...Mangaka just wrote the scene only for the shock value ..It ruined the show for me On the other hand Perfect Blue, heres the rape scene was done so brilliantly that it captures the real horror of rape, it evoked my gut feeling, make me feel raw symphathy for the victim and raw hatred for the culprits ..On the top of that that scene added layer to the story |
| No, it doesn't. Rape is very common in hentai and it doesn't bother me. |
| definitely not, some a lot would say it even elevates youjuu toshi. guts' peak moment came about because of that as well. |
 |
| It depends on the show and the execution of the rape scene. A rape scene can ruin a show: imagine if a comfy CGDCT suddenly has a graphic rape scene, and then things go back to being comfy as if nothing just happened. That would ruin the vibe. I don't think all rape scenes are bad though, some stories work with them, and it is possible to execute these scenes well. Perfect Blue, for example, handles this respectfully. Of course, there's also hentai, and I like rape hentai. Edit: I don't like it if a villain rapes a character just to show how villainous they are. That's lazy writing, it's like making the villain kick a dog. To be clear, a villain can rape a character, but that shouldn't be the only thing they do. More heroic characters can also rape in certain contexts (typically, hentai). This isn't just about rape, I feel the same way regarding violence: some things work with it, some things don't. |
