Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (2/12 eps)
I have only seen two episodes of this anime. Here's the story of how I got into this anime and why I decided to drop it.

I first got into this anime after hearing that it makes a lot of anime references. I thought, "This could be fun!" and had fun watching the first episode. Then, I get to episode two and there was a particular scene I did not approve of.

Here's what happens, Nyaruko, the female protagonist runs into an old enemy of hers (who's name I can't remember) whom she hasn't seen in quite a while. Just when Nyaruko is ready to fight her, she unexpectedly confesses that she has a very large sexual crush on Nyaruko. She ties her up to her bed and start's kissing Nyaruko's crotch while she is screaming at her to stop. In other words, it's a rape scene.

Personally, I get really annoyed whenever I see rape in anime, not only because I think it will put a bad influence on whoever watches it, but also because, to me, rape is seriously the worst possible thing you could do to a person, even worse than killing. If you are killed by someone, then unless ghosts are real, you only have that pain (physical and emotional) for a little bit. If you are raped, i.e. forced to be touched and kiss by someone you don't like, you are walking around with that pain for the rest of your life. Somehow, the Japanese find suffering like this to be entertaining, and I cannot understand why.

I get especially annoyed whenever I see homosexual rape in anime, like this one. It has been mythologized for a very long time in western culture (I do not know if it's the same in Japanese culture. If someone can clarify that for me, it would be very much appreciated.) that gay people are rapists. All they live for is to have sex with people of their gender, even if that person isn't queer. Whenever I see rape in anime between two boys or two girls, that's the first thing that comes to mind, which is why I can't stand most yaoi like Junjou Romantica.
