At this point in time, the Winter seasonal shows have either wrapped up or are airing their finale this week. So, I wanted to hear your thoughts on shows you watched this season. Shows you liked, disliked, were surprised by, disappointed by? Let those opinions rip!
Like always, this thread can also be used for general discussions, recommendations, and questions. So, if you haven’t been watching any seasonal shows, but instead want to talk about the finer points of Fushigi Yuugi, that is fine too.
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers in this community, check the guide here (also linked in the sidebar).
My warning backfired then. It’s actually just a cutesy animal thing with a lot of unfortunate implications baked in (and totally unintended at that).
Fluffy Paradise spoiler
The MC wanted to build a reservation where all the sentient animals (the orcs, the kobolds, and others she’s gathering), pushed out of their natural habitat, would live, with the full knowledge that they can and will be hunted by adventurers within this reservation. Sure, the adventurers looking to hunt these guys would also be in danger, but the MC’s plan is essentially a country-sized safari.
It is treated in-story as a good thing, with the sentient animals being blissfully unaware of the implications. They even look forward into settling this new land (which as of the last episode, hasn’t yet been procured yet!).
I watched the show precisely because it looked like a cutesy animal thing, but yeah~ that certainly colored my opinion of it.
Ah, ok. I understand now. I can certainly see how that has dark implications that you wouldn’t expect based on the previews.
