    i would still nevertheless really appreciate seeing more anime around that features female characters who aren’t gods damned children.

    it’s gross. i’m sick of it. it’s exhausting.

      Agreed. I guess the target audience is typically teenagers but I wouldn’t mind some more… Mid to late 20s characters so they can have relationships that don’t feel morally questionable?

    They don’t look cougar tho, to me they look like type of partying rowdy women in their young 20s, and I’m in my late 20s, i mean, in my teenage years I’ve slept with one cougar on drinking party my pal had and even though she looked good, she had abs and big breasts and good skin, few things gave away her age, her facial and neck skin was kinda dry even though without wrinkles, and smoking changed her voice considerably, while her voice still was feminine, it got light husk in tone

      You’re right though. It’s really “your joke but worse” material, and the original joke is stupid enough that it definitely didn’t need the extra potshot at addicts added on.

      Edit: seems like I may have misunderstood. Carry on

        But… it isn’t a potshot at addicts? I’m not familiar with all of the anime women in the image, but the purple haired one, Misato from Evangelion, is all but confirmed as a functioning alcoholic within the first episode or two.

        I would assume that the other ones are as well.

        So, not a potshot, just a cringey way to shove somebody’s waifu(s) into an existing meme. And this is the shitposting community, so it was arguably done ironically.


        Also, for the record, Misato is the closest thing to “best girl” that series has. Don’t @ me. Everyone in it is fucked up, she’s just ever so slightly less so.
