The show was interesting at first, but then they have a high school girl strapped down by aliens trying to SA her. The whole scene is played very light despite what’s happening. Also, another high schooler gets SA’d off screen as well

Fuck that and not watching more

    Huh. I have only watched Ping-Pong and the Tatami Galaxy but I never got that vibe. Can you elaborate? (Not trying to argue with you, just curious)

      Mainly to me just the way that he always centers the story around this incel lite main character who walks away w his manic pixie dream girl by the end of the story without the relationship feeling earned at all and in fact usually the main character is quite misogynistic in his own way

        It’s been a while since I watched Tatami Galaxy but I always got the impression that the MC did go through a lot of growth. But I’ll have to rewatch it. If you haven’t seen Ping Pong I’d highly recommend it. It’s such a wholesome character study.
