Also, you can’t just cosplay as the race you enslaved and expect people to find it cute and want to do the same. People’s perception of beastmen is that they’re slaves. Who’d want to cosplay as a slave? Plus isn’t that kinda like black face? The naive resolutions in this story are down right toxic
I could kind of see a real 5 or 6 year old child wanting to use the ears as a way to get people used to beastmen. The idea of changing the perception of beastmen from 'sinners' and 'slaves' to something 'cute' and then to 'equal' isn't a terrible idea for an actual child to want to make her friends liked better by society, but since she actually has the mentality of a 25 year old, her idea is far too demeaning. Her idea mainly fetishizes the beastmen. While her idea of accepting beastmen as equals and not blaming them for the sins of their ancestors is great, the ear idea is likely to impede those efforts rather than improve them.
Exactly, but since this manga is filled with toxic positivity, I’m sure her idea won’t only not have a bad result, but it’s actually going to work. I can’t read this anymore. I love fluffy, light hearted stories, but I can’t stand it when they take serious issues like child trafficking and have them forgive the perpetrators because it’s a fluffy story, so it can’t have serious consequences. If serious consequences cannot exist inside this story, then don’t bring up serious issues that will result in serious consequences to begin with FFS
Dude, I love fluffy stories, but if you’re gonna tell a fluffy story, make the conflicts fluffy too. Don’t come up with a serious conflict and give it a fluffy solution, like wtf. You don’t just forgive someone who kidnapped you and tried to make you a slave when slavery is something you can’t escape for the rest of your life. The woman who came up with the whole thing was just expelled from the town? She should’ve minimum been banned as an adventurer. She sold out a fellow adventurer from the same guild. Fluffy is good, but this is borderline brainless. And why should she be afraid of a measly prince, just say you’ll destroy the country if he tries anything. So much power wasted on a brainless too kind for her own good MC
