| possibly from go nagai's edgy shit like devil man ?_? sadism is older than anime tho i dont think its so popular, nor that sadism for humor (black comedy) is particularly japanese |

| JAPAN will always be the answer...................... |
| You are not your body, you are your brain, the "self" that emerges from within it. |
| It's so the masochistic guys can have waifus too. |

The show just has to present this as humorous. Unless it's a male sadist and female masochist, in which case it risks looking too much like domestic abuse or rape. But with good directing, this can work as humor too. Also, I have a feeling you might confuse boke-tsukkomi routine with sadomasochism. Disclaimer. I have avoided watching Prison School. |

| Maybe if other countries weren't so strict with their censorship laws then we would get sadist characters from other countries as well America was too strict with censorship which is what put them behind Japan in terms of comics and cartoons and why Japan is so much better, it was able to evolve into what we now call anime and manga That also means that should other country's not have been too strict with their censorship then they'd be able to produce better stuff in terms of entertainment Perhaps that's why we love anime so much. Because it's made by a country that isn't run by overprotective moms |

Lol, sexist~ But in all seriousness, if female to male is okay then male to female should be okay as well People are just dumb and sexist lol |

I think Sadism, at least in cases like Esdeath, are more for characterization. People, me, like to see how a character like Esdeath came to be. What made her so sadistic? It's something like this that can help make a character likable. For comedy, it is only funny when there is a masochist. lol. |
Everyone says anime is getting worse and nothing compares to the greats;  I say anime never stops getting better |
