while both of them treat women pretty loving bad Shield Hero is absolutely worse than Goblin Slayer because in Goblin Slayer all of the gratuitous horrible stuff that happens to women is portrayed as being bad and something that is supposed to make the audience hate goblins and like the guy who kills them, whereas in Shield Hero from what I understand the hero sells women into sex slavery and does hosed up things to them and we're supposed to like him and think that it's good that he did that ultimately it boils down to a contest between "women as disposable plot devices who are raped and murdered constantly in order to make the audience hate the villains and root for the hero to stop them and also maybe because the author has some kind of fetish for it" and "women are evil monsters and the audience is supposed to root for the hero as he enslaves them and does all sorts of other horrible poo poo to them", where both are bad but the second one is definitely worse

it was pitched to me as "isekai where everyone hates the main character". I thought maybe that the reason the setup for this was him being falsely accused of rape was simply because the author couldn't think of anything else which would result in universal hatred. It doesn't necessarily have to come from a place of the author hating women or anything. I though "maybe it's just a plot point that comes across as kind of insensitive, but wasn't written out of any kind of desire to send a message" i was loving wrong though, holy poo poo let's list off some poo poo that happens in shield hero: the hero buys female slaves. he keeps them, too, this isn't the usual "oh I bought you just to free you but now you're so grateful that you follow me around anyway" poo poo. dude has slaves. hero forces a woman to legally change her name to "Bitch" a guy starts seeing all women as pigs and hearing their voices as oinking sounds a woman sells another woman into sex slavery because she thinks a guy she likes is more attracted to her

ViggyNash posted:Even if you believe all of the bullshit evidence set forth, we're talking about one of the 4 heroes of legend here, the people you've been slobbering over for hundreds of years. to give incredibly minimal credit where it is due, apparently at some point they show that the legend actually predicts that the shield hero is going to be an evil rear end in a top hat that everyone is gonna have to just put up with if they want to live, which is maybe part of why they were inclined to believe that was a rapist

Onmi posted:No it isn't, it's an Isekai-Fakeout. Dream Zanarkand is a physical location inside Spira's world. The best way to understand the plot of FF10 is the moment someone says "Dream x" Mentally substitute "Dream" with "Aeon" and "Dreaming" as "Summoning." Tidus is an Aeon, summoned by a mass summoning by the survivors of Zanarkand, to preserve their history as an Aeon-simulation. It is a physical location off the coast of Spira. the fresh prince of bel-air is also an isekai

KomeradeCanadian posted:Yeah this was an underlying argument for why Goblin Slayer is lovely. The author chose to write a world where there's a mongol-like horde of demihuman monsters that reproduce through rape. He chose to have (almost every) female character have some brush with the raping. "ooh how did you lose your eyes? oh, goblins". This was a concious writing decision to make this place so filthy and lovely that of course a garbageman looks heroic. I'm not gonna say Goblin Slayer is good but you can't act like "Goblin Slayer" is more of a name than "Dwarf Warrior" or whatever, people are just referred to by their job titles

Rent-a-Bot posted:Why do so many isekai include slavery in their escapist fantasy setting yet all but outright refuse to engage with the dissonance that would be faced by a protagonist that comes from an era that regards slavery as an absolute evil? Would they feel compelled to try and use their newly gifted power to enact change or would the invisible hand of the status quo make them feel compelled to stay within the bounds of their assigned role?

Akumos posted:I mean they are both "monsters" and one turns into an adult within 1-2 eps and one turns into a giant bird and he basically treats them like normal companions in any other anime that I've seen. He actively tries to improve their lives and they seem willing to stay in his party? It's like barely a plot point at all, may as well not exist, could have just been some weak sick girl he recruited off of the streets and generic loli monster girl companion. If we're weirded out by childlike companions fighting that's like every loving isekai anime sadly. His treatment of them as slaves is clearly portrayed somewhat as a joke, at no point is he like whipping them and forcing them to do horrible poo poo. The worst he does is make racoon girl get over some fears and learn to fight but then she apparently stops caring immediately after and he basically never orders her to do anything again so whatever. the fact that one of his child slaves turns into a teenage girl in 2 weeks because of magic and that the other one is technically a giant chicken does not really make things better to the degree that you indicate if it's barely a plot point at all, why does he go out of his way to put a slave thing on the big chicken even though this is portrayed as being expensive, she visibly hates it, and she seemed totally willing to hang around and do what he said without one? he does not whip them because he literally has magic shock collars on them that he can activate at will, which he does multiple times to the raccoon child while forcing her to fight to the death with monsters
