i feel like i’ve seen her before in an anime i don’t remember the title of where she was a princess that ruined a guys life by falsely accusing him of rape

i laughed harder at this than i have at anything all day

this is kind of adorable what is this from?

i know i’m probably gonna sound weird but this strangely makes sense to me and i don’t know why.

had it. not as fun as you think. fires maybe 120 rpm. until you hook it up to a car battery, then it’s damn near a minigun

but he’s right there...? i’m confused.

okay i’m seeing this referenced CONSTANTLY what anime is this?

okay but can they PLEASE sell this irl

Holy shit that looks like it just missed the waist gunners’ head and the tail gunner’s ass.

As i understand it, it’s a reasoned (if incredibly messed up) argument; there are those who are attracted to minors, but choose not to act on it, as well as those who are and do and should absolutely be punished by the law. Those that don’t act on it, though, likely will choose to seek help and treatment. Or would, except the social stigma around it is so prevalent that they would feel ostracized for seeking help, and there isn’t much help to be had, except under the penal system anyway. If it were viewed as orientation, however, it would remove some of the stigma, there would be a community to reach out to for help and treatment, and it would fall under study. The reason for the attraction could be identified (maybe it stems from childhood abuse or trauma, or mental illness), and therefore can be treated under an appropriate psychiatric setting.
HOWEVER, this is a double-edged sword; identifying it as orientation could normalize that, and that would obviously be disastrous.

He was Corsican. Corsica is a colony which regularly changed hands between the french, germans, english, and italians, though was primarily owned by the french, and was i think under Italian leadership at the time of his birth BUT changed hands during his lifetime (if i remember my sophomore Honors Global correctly- might want to fact check).
So... yes. Basically French, but explaining the detail the Redditors keep harping on.

okay what? i am a huge history buff and i feel like this would be an awesome gap in knowledge to fill.

they should do a movie about the siege of Castle Itter (spelling might be off). justifiable crying for the deaths of both, unless it’s the SS, and arguably the battle most in NEED of a war movie.

You know what fuck it I’d be a villain too, honestly. Put that way, why even try?

side note: the complete transition in character from hopeful soldier looking to protect humanity and avenge his mother to bleak terrorist seeking to overthrow established powers to create the overruling Eldian state is shocking and exciting. kind of a modern “die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain” type thing.

this makes me mad on an evolutionary level

i feel like i remember this character coming from a kids cartoon but idk which one or what possible context this could be from

not to be a stickler but that’s less a trebuchet than it is an onager, so... frogager? but i love it! 11/10
