i def hope no one actually becomes too upset with you, esp since im interested in what exactly is the joker interpretation within the dynamic you dislike! sometimes people like to only take the core of their dynamic—their rivalry—and just run with it after that, for better or for worse. but no pressure on answering!
I hope so too! Most people I've encountered in this little community im fostering here on this blog are really nice and usually dont have problems with me taking pot shots at shuake in the greater fandom. at least not outwardly. But i do know that shuake shippers make up a big percentage of my audience, and ive previously run into either a) problems with people who think I hate akechi and participate in akechi bashing and b) people in the p5 tag generally who like to make huge issues out of things like this with others. So im always a little wary in what I say or post.
I'm going to say this in the hopes that others will be understanding. I agree with you, that's a tendency in shuake I dislike. The other thing I dislike is when people have joker not care at all about the murder attempt. I think there is an interesting tension that could exist between the two because of it, but many seem to have joker just gloss over it? like it has no impact on him at all? I rarely see the emotional rollercoaster of emotions that comes from "this guy feels fake af and is a detective" → "oh crap hes gonna kill me" → "oh shit he was coerced into doing this horrible stuff." There's real conflict between them, and not just hey you hurt my friends or you did bad things to others we dont know about. Akechi was actively trying to kill joker. There's so much cool conflict you can play with in a romance about that!
