| Most of the time when I drop anime is if I get bored with it or if I start it and then forget about it until years later but I’m too uninterested to finish. I’ve seen some disturbing anime, and I have respect for those creators for having the bravery to depict some things with no holding back. Yeah there’s Goblin Slayer, but Berserk and a Perfect Blue have rape scenes that I think are far more disturbing and graphic than Goblin Slayer (and also have a point to them, like character development) If you’re sensitive and uncomfortable with rape scenes, I understand, that’s a perfectly valid reason to stop watching something. Just for me, I’ve seen a lil worse and won’t drop an anime for that reason. Sometimes you just gotta show the darker, realer side of humanity. |

| I don't think I've dropped any anime for moral reasons. Yet. I would probably drop anything that is focused around shotacon/lolicon. Jokes about it don't really bother me (depending on how far the joke goes, of course), but I just don't think I could handle an entire anime centered around someone being attracted to young girls/boys. Even though it's fiction, I just find it unnecessary and uncomfortable. |
| not an anime but a futa x loli manga. i couldnt. |

| SLASH THE GOBLINS! SPECIES WAR NOW!!!!!! |
| Twitter and it's consequences had been a disaster for the human race |
| I've dropped a lot of anime but I don't recall ever dropping one because of clashing morals. I'm pretty sure anime itself has desensitized me to anything it could possibly do to morally trigger me at this point. |
| I can't even watch anime anymore females are oversexualized it's disgusting. Until they release an anime where the females wear burkas I'm done |
 |
| No, I feel like I sometimes miss a lot of propganda people see in anime. I think if I were to it'd have to be very direct of supporting something that I find unsavoury. |
| No. I don't drop anime for petty reasons. |
 |
| The only anime I'd drop strictly for moral reasons would be straight up pedo bait shows because they're disgusting. I'm also probably not going to stick around very long if there's prolonged torture scenes. |

| I don't recall dropping shows for some morality nonsense. If anything most of the time (100% to be exact) I dropped an anime when it breaks my suspension of disbelief, wasn't entertaining, some elements of storytelling were distasteful for me or when the show ends up insulting my intelligences completely. Since it's all fiction, I can prevent my sense of morality from getting in the way. |

| I don't recall dropping anything for moral reasons other than if they became boring or I just don't think I would ever finish them. And anything that I know I won't like, I just stay away from. Some anime I never even added that I may have tried. I do however try to finish most series that I watch even if something happened that I didn't like which is mostly death of characters, but if it's too much for me I will stop watching it. Lately I tend to go for the more happy fluffy anime or ones that I know where no one dies. |
rarahayu11 said: Yes, me too. I dropped goblin slayer just because of the rape scene. I think rape scene on goblin slayer is nonsense. Another, this one is dropped because it has the same elements about raping. I don't know exactly but i read some spoiler somewhere. Well Goblin Slayer showing true element of everyone's dreamed fantasy dungeons :) I agree it is sometimes too much for watching (I had also some problem with my heart to see it) but its only dungeon anime where not everyone who starts in dungeon can kill all enemies without problem :) |
| I've never dropped anything due to morality reasons and I'd like to believe that would never be the case in the future. Though I guess if something just becomes too unbearably gory I guess i might drop a show for that, but a lot of times overly gory stuff tends to be really cheesey and it would have just been dropped for the reason of being bad anyway. lol |
| ive dropped the manga akame ga kill after the special chapter of the three girls going into the city to find work then getting abuducted and raped by dogs and shit to the point where they kill themselves or attempt to be the guys favorite in order to put a hit out on them...that manga was just frikin sick to me but it was reall popular...and goblins layers the same, i cant help but think what if someone was raped or abuducted in my own life..nt by goblins or whatever but the thought worrys me so i tend to avoid these things and as for caster in fate zero, isnt that how blue beard accually was in history? |
| Dropping an anime for "Moral Reasons",...it's fucking fiction, when will people understand this? |

bibotot said: CHC said: The point of Caster's character is precisely that he resents the fact that God does not exist or that He does exist but is apathetic to the injustice of the world. He did all those horrible things to spite his God, "are You still gonna allow all that?" I do not in principle object criticising a fictional work in moral or political terms, but first you will have to understand the work itself. It would be ludicrous if someone declares he dropped after a few pages of Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment saying the existentialist classic is morally repugnant as the main character gratuitously murdered his landlady just because he could. A lot of anime plays with cruelty only for shock value, which is bad taste (though I wouldn't say it's necessarily morally repugnant), so it's understandable that excessive cruelty is warning sign for a mindless, superficial gore porn, but it's also intellectually coward or lazy to turn your eyes away from every cruelty in art without ever trying to figure out its meaning. That makes me hate him even more. I am no Catholic, but I believe in God. How dare the show try to deny the existence of God even though there are people with magic running around? That's just hipocrite. That only means your uncritical religious belief prevented you from engaging with a genuine philosophical question that the show raises. Philosophers have been asking why evils are allowed to exist if there's indeed a benevolent god. Even devout Christians like Aquinas and Leibniz have tried to answer this question. It's called the problem of evil and has been taken seriously by theologians for centuries. At least do a wiki research: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_evil I have nothing against your faith, I simply think it's unfair to Fate/Zero if you judge it as immoral. It asks critical questions that you would rather never have been asked about. It explores the perspective of the people you don't want to care about. It's OK. It's not my job to teach any one to be open-minded. But it's just your personal preference. You dropped F/Z because you don't like its challenging subject matter, not because it's an immoral show. |

| I do dropped anime whenever I can't shake the uncomfortable-ness out of my system. Like for example: incest, non-subtle super showy yuri/yaoi and exaggerated fanservice. |
| I've never dropped an anime because of moral reasons before, I do however try to avoid anime that I'm not okay about (Incest shows for example) |
 Wake me up for another crusade |
| I never drop an anime, even for moral reasons. |
 |
| I don't tend to drop stuff for moral reasons. I will not do anything that does against my own morals in normal circumstances, but will definitely tolerate characters in my entertainment doing if it does convey a message. Specifically when it comes to torture and murder, I'm always chill with it being portrayed. Of course it'll be better for characters I'm a show to have motive or a background story that somewhat makes it sensible for them to have some sadism or indifference to the lives of others Sometimes there's also insinuation of a certain ideal, like nationalism, but I really don't care either. Having some nationalism is fine, and even good. We really shouldn't be confusing nationalism with the brainwashed nationalism that some Japanese had during WW2. Yeah people died back then, heck the Japanese were rounding up people of my ethnicity and shooting them in beaches, but get over it. I'll call anyone out for they do or believe, not what their ancestors did or believed. |
| I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters. If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate. Been a long time since I've been here, I'll continue expressing myself freely and believe everyone should too. My MAL Interview |
| Yeah, I don't like graphic torture, which is why I dropped "Inuyashiki". Also things like rape and animal abuse. Big no. |
 |
| Goblin Slayer seems to be getting tons of press, although obviously not the good kind. The anime itself didn't really pique my interest, and after reading the stuff surrounding it, the anime is definitely not for me. To answer the thread's question: a long time ago, I dropped Bakuman after the first few episodes due to the overall treatment of it's female characters. Frankly, I don't think I'll ever support the mangaka's after they created such a sexist series. |

I think you didn't watch the same show i watched , i can't forget how the little sister act around her brother , also I've seen a scene when they actually kissed each other. I mean its been years since I've seen the show, but I clearly remember the show not being oriented towards romance. |
| I was seriously going to try to take this seriously until I got to the Fate/Zero part. |

Issmail22Lawfy said: SithSteel said: Now that I think about it more, I do vaguely remember Shiro's obsession with Sora. She is even jealous because other girls around sora have good body shape and big breast . Well, this isn't exactly a trope that has no basis in reality. Millions of girls worry about, or even obsess over, the size of their breasts. The girl was such a good character especially because she is very smart but they ruined it with that obsession , until you realise that probably the reason she is living for is her brother I still think she's a good character. Her obsession didn't bother me when I watched the show. |

Will it's bother me as someone who don't like those kind of relations I could drop even my favorite show for that . Well...ok then. I don't think I would. If the incest thing is the main point of the show then I wouldn't be watching it anyway. Y'know? |
| as a general note i don't watch works that contain pointless rape, and when i say pointless i mean when it's forced on a plot just for shock value or sadistic appeal. rape as a character development tool is also something i hate and tend to give up on watching when i recognize it. i don't rule it out completely because i think there are many different ways to portray extreme violence and there are stories where it fits, but tbh i'm kind of an escapist when it comes to works of fiction and i rather steer clear of subjects that distress me or hurt me in real life, and it's already a violent world full of rapists outside, so i prefer to stay in a bubble where at least in fiction i won't be upset about it. incest is also a no for me, usually. i don't really care about incest as a general rule because like. fuck whoever you want lol it's none of my business, but i have an older brother and two little sisters so to me it's just. yikes. you know. but then i don't think it counts as a moral reason because it's not passing judgement, i guess, it's just not my cup of tea lol |

| oh. to me this is so obvious i actually forgot to include it in my last reply but: i can't stand pedophilia. even if the pedophile gets mauled by rats later, i don't care, that's something that turns my stomach just thinking about it. i don't care if it's explicit or some loli shit, i'm out |

| I just don't get it, why do people tend to mix reality and fiction? If you watch an anime with lolis does it mean you are a pedophile or when someone get killed, you like murder? So much hypocrites, if you cant seperate reality and fiction you have a serious problem and need help. Even movies or series like Game of Thrones had graphic scenes and they are still loved by many people because they can seperate reality and fiction. |

| Well, Goblin Slayer is going to come up, since personally my philosophy is that using rape as a cheap shock method, especially so early on, should not be condoned. More controversial one, I dropped Shimoneta when I realized it was trying to make me laugh at girl on guy rape. It's less explicit, but when I realized that was what it was, I decided I did not want to continue. Yes, I'm probably sounding like a prude, just my personal thoughts |
| You have shit taste, and then I have taste so shit it makes your taste look good |
| @mifti i get your point and if this was the case most of time, I wouldnt care but this thread is about "drop an anime because of moral reasons" the distinction of right and wrong and in my opinion the concept does not work here because its fiction. |
|
| Pretty much just gay anime. Yuri on Ice, Banana Fish etc. Not because I'm homophobic, but because gay anime are quite... 'gay'. |
| The thing you mentioned in Fate with Caster killing the kids is what really turned me away from that show. I already didn't like it too much, but seeing those scenes upset me. I can't stand seeing harm being done to kids. It just really makes me feel sick. |
| nah to me is just snowflakes complaning about anything there are a lot midia portrain anime, genocide etc this isn't the first time and won't be the last, complaning about it rn is to me the stupidiest thing ever. if you get triggered by it you should just avoid it instead of shitting on something because of it |
| I don't think there is for me personally. I can get around messed up scenes if I think it had importance within the narrative. Even without proper justification I wouldn't be repulsed from a series immediately, although it would lessen my enjoyment from a writing standpoint. |
 |
| Quite a few actually, like recovery of an mmo Junkie or kenshin. |
| YOI Because I feel uncomfortable with Yaoi. Thats about it. |
