Salty Ask List

9. Most Disliked Characters? Why?

I am going to get backlash for this but genuinely, Misa. She can be made into a super well done and fleshed out character—and this is why I love fanwork that centers Misa. In the source material though? I just… find her irritating. I know she technically has the eyes which are very plot relevant, and she has some pretty neat design elements but she just irks me. I think it’s because I always have to explain her to people I’m trying to introduce death note to and apologize in advance for her. As an anime fan generally, I know she is far from the worst sexist fan-service-y character... but still. Misa is—in the source material with nothing added—a misogynistic stereotype. I get it, let women be feminine etc. But she isnt a real person, she’s an archetype thought up by two men. I dont know, original anime/manga Misa is not for me. I dont like how she changes the tones of the scenes she’s is, I dont really love her as comic relief etc. Original Misa is just… annoying to me.

IN FAN WORKS THAT TREAT HER LIKE A REAL PERSON I LOVE HER. Her backstory, the death of her parents, her creepy blackmailing of Light into a relationship? It’s all so interesting, but just… poorly handled in my view in the source material.

Am I canceled yet?

Hiya Vilandel, if you’re still accepting asks for the salty ask game; may I ask for 6, 18, and 26 please 🥰?

Oh, hey Lyra and thank you for your ask, I just got it 🥰

6 and 26 have already been answered here and here, but I also can answer them with another fandom, as I mostly talked about Black Clover.

6 - Has a fandom made me ship a couple I previously hated? For Black Clover, it was mostly Asta x Mimosa for very specific reasons, but I can't really tell for another fandom. Maybe Rogue x Minerva from Fairy Tail. I didn't liked this at first (also because I shipped Rogue more with Yukino and Minerva more with Sting blame some French fanfics for that one), but now I kinda like it? Still not my favorite ship for both Rogue and Minerva, but I really don't mind it. Same could be said for Lyon x Meredy. Again this ship is not my favorite one for the two of them, but I don't mind it at all and to be fair, they do look good together. And since Nozel x Vanessa, I like the silver haired and pink haired dynamic^^'

18 - Does not shipping something 'popular' mean that you're in denial and/or biased? No, not at all! Shipping is for fun, not for liking the most canon or most popular couples in a series. Those who pretend that you can only ship canon ships and popular ships always gave the impression of being close minded. There is nothing wrong with shipping canon and popular couples, just as there is nothing wrong by shipping rare pairings and crack ships. In fact, it can coexist easily. The problem is not that you don't like a popular or canon ship. The problem is always if you're saying to others that they're wrong to love ship XY or ship HZ just because it's not popular or canon, if you're insulting others about ships (a lot of us met a certain someone like that -_-), to sum up, if you're toxic about ships towards other people. That is the problem, not not shipping something 'popular'.

26 - Most shippable character? If we're staying with Fairy Tail, I'll say it's definitely Lucy. I've seen a lot ships including her (not liking all of them, but respecting all of them). Laxus is also pretty shippable, it seems.

[grimalkinmessor]

6 + 13(Yoichi please, because he is the best <3)

6. Has fandom ever made you enjoy a pairing you previously hated?

Yes, actually! And entirely out of spite! :D I used to be a hardcore Spideypool fan (I still am tbh just less core), and I once made a post about Spiderio that somehow drew Starker antis into my ask box?? Someone literally came to tell me how terrible it was and shame me for just mentioning it in my post, and before that moment I had had no interest AT ALL in Starker, it didn't do anything for me. But after that I made it my literal mission to post about it as much as possible, and now I'm more of a Starker fan than a Spideypool fan, so :D Thank that poor angry asshole for all my Starker fics ✨

13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character (Yoichi)?

He has the will and capacity to kill. He's a paragon of moral virtue but sometimes the moral thing to do is kill. BUT Yoichi also shares his brother's bloodlust, I believe this wholeheartedly. It just tends to be directly almost solely at his brother rather than the general populace :) He's in Izuku's ear like "Kill his ass, Ninth" and Izuku, full of similar bloodlust somewhere in between Yoichi's and AFO's, rabidly complies 🙏 He's just as insane as AFO just in a different way I believe this wholeheartedly.

Let’s pour some salt together, Acacia~!/lh 💖

If it’s not too much trouble, can I ask #7 generally, #10 for Fairy Tail and Black Clover, and finally #25 for Demon Slayer?

It’s several questions and a bit all over the pl s so I hope you don’t mind… 😅

Cheers, Erika! 🥂 Thanks for the chance to get a little bit salty about so many different things! ^^

Necessary disclaimer above the cut: These are just my own personal opinions based on my personal tastes, perceptions, and feelings regarding the series, stories, and characters and their relationships. I genuinely have the utmost respect and absolutely no ill will towards anyone who has a different opinion than me. In fact, I have always said that one of the greatest things about fandom is that we can all experience and perceive these amazing stories and characters in very different ways but still love them. Even some of my dearest fandom friends enjoy different pairings than me or see our shared favorite characters in wildly different ways than I do. I personally find it very rewarding to have respectful conversations about our differences of opinion, and I hope that my opinions will also be respected. Also, I don't vibe with just mindless bashing things, so even though this is about to get very salty and a little snarky, I'll try to keep it respectful and all in good fun. I am not tagging anything and am hiding my thoughts under the cut so you all don't have to be subjected to my hot takes and "Salty Acacia," if you don't want.

MAJOR Spoilers for Demon Slayer below the cut. You've been warned.

7. Is there anything you used to like but can’t stand now?

ATTACK ON TITAN/SNK. My sister says I need a swear jar because I can just rant for hours about how I was just so personally, viscerally disappointed with how that series ended (made all the worse because I had several years of investment in it). As a disclaimer, I still like my favorite characters and the side story "No Regrets" will always be **Chef's Kiss** but yeah...you could not pay me to watch or read it ever again.

But again, disclaimer, that's just me. It's my cousin's favorite anime of all time, and he loved the ending. Everyone's different.

As for anything else from fandoms I actually talk about...I'm not sure there is anything. Like everyone with an online presence, I have definitely been disturbed, appalled, and otherwise very upset by things I've seen on the internet, but that's what the block button is for (and I know it's all peace, love, & good vibes around here, but I block aggressively, actively, and unapologetically when the situation warrants it). As a general rule though, I try not to let what other people think get to me and ruin the things I love, and in that way, I don't think I have ever had a situation where something was just completely 100% ruined for me by a terrible fic, toxic fandom, or anon hatred ect. ect. I have certainly distanced myself from certain pairings and certain fandoms because of that, but I wouldn't say any of them have ever reached the level of "I can't stand it now." If anything, I sometimes feel a little contrary and dig my heels in on that thing in a petty revenge, "Well in that case, I'll just like this more" kind of way, if that makes sense?

All of that said, I have no patience for nasty, toxic fandom environments, and I stay away from those even if it's a media I really like i.e. you mentioned MHA in one of your salty asks...I wrote my one platonic friendship fic and got the hell outta there (nothing bad happened to me but it just wasn't worth it to take any chances). But that doesn't mean I don't enjoy it in real life and sometimes talk about it with my sisters and irl friends. I just don't want to discuss it online. It's not worth the headache & drama.

I definitely get fandom fatigue sometimes where the aggressiveness and toxicity of the fans of a certain pairing or character I already don't like just intensifies my dislike for that thing. But that's really only ever happened with things I already don't like or don't have an opinion on at all, which I don't think that really fits the prompt here.

10. Most disliked arc? Why?

Fairy Tail: The anime-only Celestial Spirit Arc by a landslide. It was so boring and had so many pacing issues. I literally fell asleep during it and didn't even both going back. I'm also super bitter towards that arc because my sister got so bored during it that she quit the anime (right before getting the best arc Tartaros). I keep begging her to pick it up again and just skip the stupid Celestial Spirit Arc but she swears she is a completionist and would never be able to do it. So yeah. Can't stand that one! The only positive thing I could remotely say about it was that Levy on the game show was kind of entertaining, but overall the whole arc was kind of just like a boring bizarre dream I'd like to forget about.

For arcs that appeared in both the anime and manga, I really didn't like that flute arc (which a google search has informed me is actually called the "Eisenwald Arc"). I'm glad we got Gray and Erza introduced as characters, but the arc had a lot of pacing issues and just went on for way too way, imo. They could've wrapped things up a lot faster, also I just didn't get the whole "evil flute" thing--it was really random and kind of bizarre (also not the most well thought out plan in the world). I will say this arc gets more points than the Celestial Spirit Arc because my sister and I had so much fun making Kokushibo flute jokes.

Black Clover: Gotta go with the anime only arc here too because again, it was boring and didn't have a lot of bearing on the series as a whole. It also felt like a major let down after the high stakes of the Elf Arc. Honestly just not a fan of that one.

If I had to pick a manga arc...uh...I honestly don't know. Maybe the Sosshi village arc? But only because I thought it was better in the anime where they really took the time to flesh out Magna's backstory. It felt more rushed in the manga, but I don't dislike it as much as that anime only one.

If I can pick a character arc, freaking FINRAL'S!! Like what happened here?! It was so, so good...until it wasn't. I JUST CAN'T WITH THE AMOUNT OF REGRESSION. It makes me want to beat my head against the wall even more than he is! But I think this was about story arcs, not characters arc so I'll refrain from ranting here.

25. Would you change the ending of Demon Slayer?

This is kind of a complicated one. My sister and I were just talking about this because she feels there was too much character death, but I feel it was a justified and appropriate amount for the high stakes of the series (even if it was devastating). So for the sake of this discussion, let's assume that the author had a "character death quota" (or a set number of characters who were going to be killed off by the end of the series). If that was the case, I would have axed Uzui at the end of the Entertainment District Arc and saved Genya in the final arc.

If there was a believable/reasonable way that Muichiro could have gone into god-mode and defeated Kokushibo without dying, I would have saved him too, having Uzui take his "death slot." Then I would have saved Genya by having Sanemi die to protect him (which would have been a much more satisfying ending to his arc, in my opinion).

As sad as the other deaths were (*weeps about ObaMitsu*) Muichiro and Genya were children. While it's realistic for them to die, it's especially tragic, and if I got to rewrite the ending, I would prioritize saving them.

Though to be perfectly fair, I would have been much happier with the ending if Uzui had died in the Entertainment District Arc and any of our heroes who died in the final battle survived instead. I'll forever be salty that Uzui of all people somehow managed to survive to the end when so many others did not, especially since his arc had already wrapped up and him dying in the Entertainment District would have been a satisfying conclusion to his story whereas so many other characters who did get axed had storylines that felt unfinished (Genya especially).

Also, Himejima should have played the flute at Kokushibo causing him to lose his cool in the infinity castle so much faster. I'm really upset this didn't happen. (Kidding but I would’ve loved to see him just go completely unhinged over the flute. I make way too many Kokushibo flute jokes…)

Number 10 for the Salty Asks?

This ask game

I was definitely not a fan of the last season of Beast Wars, since they were essentially cramming two different arcs into the very last season.

You could argue that Transformers Prime did the exact same thing, but Season 3 still had an overarching plot of the Predacons while Season 2 had the overarching plot of the Iacon Hall of Records. Season 1 felt more of day to day building character with the Unicron prophecy coming out in the season finale. Season 3 for TFP did get shortened, which ultimately hurt the writing and the build up of the Predacons which ended up getting shunted aside. If TFP Season 3 had 26 episodes like Season 1 and 2, the Predacons would have stayed for longer. I can guarantee you that much.

But Season 3 of Beast Wars was doing way too much. There was the arc about those ancient aliens, which was talked about in previous seasons, but there was no real satisfying pay off with them. Not to mention they create a fusion of Tigatron and Airazor only to have them killed off in the next episode. Not to mention they also bring in the Covenant of Primus and start talking about prophecies immediately after those aliens are defeated. And the Covenant of Primus felt out of nowhere. Why didn't they just stick with the Disks? They were already well established within the lore of Beast Wars.

Not to mention the characters are such a downgrade. Rattrap and Rhinox don't get the same amount of screen time as they used to. I grew to hate Cheetor and his puberty stage. They bring back Dinobot as a clone. Don't even get me started on Silverbolt and Blackarachnia. We're gonna be here all day.

I really enjoyed seasons 1 and 2 of Beast Wars, but Season 3 was definitely doing way to much with two different arcs and it shows.

I really liked your NYE literati one shot idea ❤️ Got any for a Literati Christmas Day? We were robbed not getting to see them exchange gifts on Christmas 🙁

I would definitely steal my own household dynamic of Christmas grump (me, Jess) partnered with Buddy the Elf (my partner, Rory).

I imagine Jess being a very thoughtful gift giver, in spite of his feelings about the holiday. And as tempting as it is for him to give her books, I feel like he'd want to DO something with her.

So I love the idea of them stealing away together as the family Christmas dies down, and Jess taking Rory to the New York public library. Someone he knows from his street urchin days works there and lets them in after hours. He smuggles in Christmas cookies and hot cocoa and they wander around and Rory frets about getting crumbs everywhere, but can't stop popping cookies into her mouth.

As for Rory, she definitely fretted about it forever, but landed on getting Jess a bunch of vintage t-shirts from shows he said he wished he'd been alive for.

7. Is there anything you used to like but can’t stand now?

No because I am simply that powerful. I don't give a shit about the canyon, I will continue to enjoy izzy the horrible little bastard man, as well as edizzy. I refuse to let them have him and I will hold onto him with all my might because he is not theirs, he is ours as much as anyone's. and if I don't have him then who can I put through psychological torture in my lab instead??

stuff unrelated to ofmd where the answer is "yes:" the last 10 minutes of "the man in the high castle" completely ruined it for me. wtf was that?? iykyk. there was also this amazon prime show taking place in the 70s about a bunch of holocaust survivor spies fighting against underground nazis and the big twist at the end of the season is that the grandfather to the main young man character is not in fact his grandfather but a NAZI FROM THE CONCENTRATION CAMP THAT KILLED HIS GRANDFATHER AND HE TOOK THIS MURDERED JEWISH MAN'S IDENTITY?!!?!? that was some of the most offensive shit I've ever seen.

22. I wrote and discarded about seven answers to this, but I actually really hate the people from miraculous ladybug. Horrible character design, weird ship, as someone who enjoys the odd m/f ship I’m so pissed the characters are the top m/f ship on ao3

23. Come closer ok I liked Kylo Ren and I shipped Reylo I KNOW ITS GROSS I wish I’d written a reylo fanfic I could turn into a cookie cutter romance novel and laugh all the way to the bank

hi!! for the salty asks: 5 and 6?

Salty Ask List

5. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?*

Nope! I dont think I’ve ever been in a particularly bad fandom? Besides once I like a ship nothing can shake me.

6. Has fandom ever made you enjoy a pairing you previously hated?*

Yes!! I am about to make a big confession but I used to hate Meronia. BIGGER confession… I used to hate Mikalight. I know. Scandalous.

On the Meronia front, I just was pretty solidly m2 for a long time, I wasn’t even that into it, it was just The successor pairing. And I still love m2! However brilliant tumblr user @horreurscopes has shown me the way.

Per MikaLight. I met @dykelawlight and everything changed. I love Teru. He’s my best friend and also me.

Thanks for the ask!

[vilandel]

For your salty asks, 1, 6, 9 and 20 please? Also, I salute your bravery, dear 🫡

Hi, Acacia, good morning and thank you for your asks 🫡

1 - Which OTPs I just don't in my fandoms? You know, this is actually a good question. There are ships that I don't like romantically, but still respect and understand why the shippers love them. If there are anything, certainly incest and problematic ships, but that is of course normal.

Funny story though, there is a Fairy Tail ship that I didn't get at first, but I came to like under certain circumstances, which only works with them. Jellal x Ultear from Fairy Tail, during their time at the Magic Council. And you know who made me ship it? One of the biggest Jellal x Erza shippers I know! Ironic, isn't it? And only during the council times, during the Crime Sorcière times they are a Brotp for both of us. What interested the Jerza shipper about Jeltear was "what if they have some kind of affair during their time at the Magic Council?". She found that they have that kind of vibe and I have to say, why not? Not only has she wrote interesting stories about them during that time, but it somehow also adds to Jellals guilt to start anything with Erza, because his only relationship he ever had was an affair during his "villain time", during which he and Ultear thought that they controlled the other. We know how it went truly, but still. It makes good stories if you like drama and if you want to try writing a problematic relationship. I understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea, but if anyone is interested about more details why my Jerza shipper friend and myself are liking Jeltear, feel free to ask^^

6 - What fandom made me enjoy a pairing I previously hated? Not hated at first, but in Black Clover it was Asta x Mimosa. I found her crush cute and how she took inspiration from Asta, but I was neutral towards the ship at first. But then the haters came, Mimosta haters and Mimosa haters, and just to understand why, I got interested in the ship and then I was... excuse me? There is nothing wrong with this ship (and with Mimosa in general), so the haters are one of the reasons why I started to like this ship. I prefer Astelle of course, but Mimosta is a cute ship too. And to be fair, never forget that there are many characters in Black Clover who would get angry at any kind of Mimosa bashing.

9 - Most disliked characters? Dante, Vanica, Zagred, Lucius for sure. Oh, I LOVE to hate them and I love them as villains, but I would never love them for their personalities and actions, that is for sure. Also, king Augustus, obviously. When I write him, I always have the feeling that if I want to punch him while writing, I got his character perfectly. Ledior and Lillian Vaude as well, heck why I made Langris cut ties with them too and give the brother's children not the Vaude names. As for other fandoms... There are many villains, that I love as villains but hate as the people they are. So any villain for the sake of being evil, probably. Like Shiro in Assassination Classroom or some villains in Fairy Tail, like Brain for example. I'm otherwise very open about characters and I love most in any fandom I am, but of course I have some characters I don't like.

20 - Purest ship in any fandom? I don't know what is meant with purest, so I go with the ships that are the most innocent for me, I guess. Astelle, Mimosta, Mars x Fana, FinFin and Luminero in Black Clover, Chendy and Loke x Aries in Fairy Tail, Deku x Uraraka, Kamijirou, Kirimina and my a lot of ships in Assassination Classroom, like Meg x Isogai or the Chiba x Hayami. I probably forgot some^^'

Salty Ask!! :D 2 (DN), 5 (any fandom), & 13 (L! I'm curious if you have any)

*backflips* Hello hello hello! :D

2. Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?

No, actually! It's been quite the opposite for the DN fandom; I see lots of BroTPs that I turn into full ships. Terraito being first and foremost 🙏

5. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

OH yeah, absolutely. Mostly because of asshole antis always touting their "superior" holy ship against our barbaric "inferior" ship lmao like after a while the whole thing just gets tainted with drama. I can't see a kiribaku post without rolling my eyes, aND I THOUGHT THEY WERE CUTE AT FIRST. I was getting the same way with bakudeku too because of how shitty the shippers started being to other shippers, namely my fellow shigadekus, and bakudeku was my first OTP in that fandom!! They got REAL uppity and it drives me insane because they now do the same shit to other people that antis used to do to us. They get just as bad as the kiribaku nuts now istg. I faded out of the bigger part of the fandom before it got to the point of total abandonment though lol.

...Damn I guess I needed to rant about that >^> But yes! Yes it has! :D

13. Unpopular opinion about XXX character (L)?

I have several of them about L! The main thing of which would be that that man is the most whorish virgin alive. He has absolutely NO rizz and his version of flirting is intricate infuriating mind games—a foolish misstep from his supposed beau might very well be cause for him to grow instantly bored of them. He thinks people are gross and too emotional he has NEVER touched another human being's genitals except for his own, and he doesn't even like doing that. Even when he IS interested enough to put in the effort, the effort is fumbling. NO idea what he's doing. But he's very eager to learn, and quickly at that ;3 He makes up for his lack of experience by being utterly shameless, laying himself out on tables naked and covered in whip cream, saying the most off the wall horny shit you've ever heard that would makes pornstars blush in horror, chasing after what he wants like a dog and not letting up until he gets that pretty pillow to hump. Learning on the go is very useful for when you finally catch your prey in an inconvenient place 🙏

The second biggest one is a two-parter ✌️ The first part being that I don't think he gives a shit about the Wammy Kids. No familial or even fond feelings for those brats whatsoever, maybe a sense of irritation if anything. Tiny pawns in the wings if he ever needs them. The second part being that if he did give a shit about any of them it would be Mello, and still not,,,in a fond or familial way. More of a 'better keep an eye on that one because he's leaning a lot towards the grayer side of the morality scale which is a lot like me but also a lot like someone whose name starts with B and ends with eyondbirthday so lets not do that again mkay thanks' way ✨

I also think that he'd be more fun if he was completely evil but that's just me 💅
