You get settled in, enjoy whats shaping up to be a great series, look forward to seeing what happens with the characters once they’re introduced … aaand the writing trips over it’s own feet and faceplants into the ground like so many defeated enemies.
What’s the worst one out there, and what happened to it?

    Anything where the older role model ends up dating the child they just spent the whole start of the series essentially raising. It has happened twice now, and I’m repulsed every time q.q why is this even an issue??

      Usagi Drop’s anime interestingly removes this part. In the manga, they timeskip to her teenage years where she’s dating him. In the anime, they story just ends right before the timeskip. Vastly improved lol

      Eww, yes absolutely that! (and the “but that little girl is actually a 400 year old dragon” trope is similarly nasty)
