as a reo stan, i’m getting tired of nagireo
before you bring out the torches, lemme explain. honestly the last ep nagi chapter showed how nagi is absolutely incompetent when it comes to human relationships. like wdym he just realized he hurt reo? what? i get the importance of their relationship for the narrative, but honestly i’m so done with nagi fan boys blaming reo for EVERYTHING nagi does wrong or, even worst, justifying all with the “he was socially incompetent before reo” yeah? so what? is he a toddler or something? why reo has to be the one to blame for everything and nagi is never held accountable for his own decisions?
so frustrating honestly alsoo have a bittersweet feeling towards shipping this two, and i do believe is the extreme shipping the reason it’s getting so hard to like the manga and deal with shippers
don’t get me wrong, i love shipping characters and reading fanfics, but i think shipping can be very harmful while trying to understand the complexity of a character. no one can deny nagireo’s relationship is real ambiguous, there are reasons to ship them, BUT YOU CANNOT REDUCE THE TWO OF THEM (specially reo) TO THE SHIP!
shippers have made their narrative a drama story and portrait reo a a obsessive and codependent. personally I’m so done with that. they make reo look like a damsel in distress, and he gets all the heat because of that, ppl roast him every time nagi fs up.
