Kinda a radicalizing figure for us to b honest.
watching the recent anime adaption w/o context other than "this is an anime abt a disabled guy fighting 2get his limbs back from demons" totally blindsided us w the brocon agegap queer romance
course the reading of Dororo & Hyakkimaru being Yaoi rests upon a trans reading of Dororo himself, which is where the trouble started as we noticed an overwhelming amount of friction from those invested in a conservative reading of Dororo as a girl & will not hear otherwise
we also noticed some queer fans willing to engage with Dororo being a transboy but ran into the issue of the problematic age gap and so leaned away from engaging with the whole work or talking abt it bc of embarrassment (or disgust).
the same kinda energy people who like made in abyss but are mad they cant show it to normie friends
Saying Dororo is our favorite Transboy shota is both rent lowering shots & a bat signal
and having complicated feelings about feeling that while being a leftist is part of why we came up with the word #treblecon to manifest queer & inclusive lolisho fandom
shout out to #Cronacon tho
happy pride!
