Shout out to all of the pokemon fangames/romhacks out there, especially all the super edgy ones
A non-negligible amount of people in the fandom dislike Grim, but I'll put it out there that I'm one of the 50% of the fandom who actually likes him. Why?
He's ugly. He's stinky. He has no redeeming features. He's a little creature with not even half a brain.
That's it. Unlike me fighting for Malleus' fictional rights, I really don't have anything to say about Grim because he is greedy, he is gluttonous, he's a little dick who has zero self awareness. But he does love the player, and though he has the empathy of a loaf of bread, he pulls through sometimes and shows he's scared of losing them. Like once a year.
And honestly that's enough for me. For all his faults and the amount of shit he puts Yuu through, I still do appreciate the companionship he offers. I like to think Grim's shenanigans make Yuu forget about their homesickness, and give the relief that they're able to make a family in this strange world.
I do understand why people would be sick of him though lol. I had a little experience teaching toddlers when I was a teenager, and I quickly learned that I'm more tolerant than most. That's probably why I can't get mad at him. Grim is worse than most toddlers though, and given he also has the spirit of a cat mixed in, it's really not a surprise that he'd tire out lots of folks. 🤣
But for the curious and can't understand why we love Grim, it's just the silly kind of warmth and companionship he offers. Kind of like why cat lovers have a toxic relationship with their cats who use their arm as a scratch post lol. And honestly it's fine if we don't get understood; affection just comes differently to people.
If we’re being honest, most of us study our favourite character less like an entomologist studies a bug and more like an astronomer studies a distant star: drawing complicated inferences from extremely limited data, then getting tetchy about it when somebody else draws incompatible but equally well-supported inferences from the same data because it’s the fucking principle of the thing.
I think that one of the most underrated reveals in Scum Villain was that Luo Binghe inherited his big dick toxic alpha male energy from his birth mother, and it actually has nothing to do with his demon side.
Airplane bro just tryin to distract his bestie durin those three binghe-free years (jokes on shen yuan, we all know you have no dignity)
I think the thing that everyone gets wrong about Mobei Jun in au’s or whatever is that he’s always extremely unromantic when approaching Quinghua. Mobei Jun in canon has been doing (to his own knowledge) a very public and socially acceptable courting ritual to the object of his affections, for years. He does this without getting outwardly frustrated towards Quinghua, and when he gets told it is not in fact being received well he stops immediately. He thinks he’s being incredibly obvious, which he is, to everyone except SQH.
Mobei Jun is effectively, a danmei version of Mr. Darcy.
His little maze of complicated social rules render him unbelievably repressed and unable to directly request Quinghua’s affection, but he loves that little hamster man so much he debases himself to flirt with him in public. He knows they’re of drastically different social standings, but doesn’t give a shit. This man has probably been planning their wedding since he was a teenager. If rom coms were a thing in the demon realm he’d be watching them and taking notes like a wannabe martial artist looking at UFC tapes.
That being said, in a modern office au or whatever, Mobei Jun would probably leave a huge bouquet on Quinghua’s desk every morning. However he does this without signing the card and it ends up stressing SQQ out because who the hell are these for????
Genuine question, could someone recommend me novels with main characters full of vitriol and unhinged? Like the moment they make eye contact with someone, it is a bloody fistfight and biting? A main character who burns the world because it is already hell? I don’t really care about genre, I just have a craving to read, and I am limited in knowledge of book types. Thank you.
