Twitter is generally known as the “sewer of the Internet.”, because there are many people who tend to want to impose their sense of morality on others, generally being ridiculed for it. This is precisely what happened recently with Sousou no Frieren (Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End), a series that has attracted a lot of attention during the current season of Fall-2023 (October-December).
The impeccable work of the studios madhouse It has not gone unnoticed on social networks, and each new episode leads Frieren to become a global trend. The protagonist, an elf who has lived for more than a thousand years, has attracted attention on the networks as one of the most popular characters of the seasonespecially for its design, its personality and its immense power.
This inspired a user on social networks to make a meme praising Frieren as cute, attractive, beautiful, and other compliments of the same nature.only for one Twitter user to immediately respond: “This is a minor».
It is not the first and it surely will not be the last time that people on Twitter (or on any social network) claim that an anime character is a minor simply because of his appearance. In this case, Frieren’s short stature and small breasts have been enough of an excuse for people on social networks to classify her as a loli, even though these characteristics could easily be found in any real woman of short stature.
Anyway, the guy ended up being ridiculed all over Twitter, leading him to make his account private. Perhaps these types of outcomes will lead to these types of incidents occurring less and less on social networks. But of course, let’s not forget the community comments:
- «If I had a dollar for every time someone has said something like that every time an anime character becomes popular, I’d probably have a few thousand dollars.».
- «She’s over a thousand years old, you idiot.».
- «He’s literally one of the oldest characters in all of anime.».
- «It is worrying that for this person, calling someone “cute” means “I want to fuck you.” How did you come to the conclusion that Frieren is a minor? She has neither the looks nor the attitude, so she don’t get it».
- «So you have to call a woman ugly until she turns eighteen?».
- «The funniest thing is that when you tell them the age of the character, they simply say that “you’re making excuses.”».
- «Short people exist. Furthermore, she is over a thousand years old».
- «Those who call someone a pedophile generally project themselves onto other people».
- «I haven’t seen Frieren because it hasn’t caught my attention, but isn’t that character over a hundred years old?».
- «It seems like all anime characters are underage nowadays».
- «Frieren doesn’t even look particularly younger, she’s just short.».
- «She is cute and sensual despite everything. I guess she’s the kind of person who thinks video games make people violent.».
- «At this point, many people project themselves onto others when they call them pedophiles.».
- «Tell me you don’t know anything about elves without telling me you don’t know anything about elves».
- «Isn’t he of marriageable age in the series? She is not a teenager. At least she doesn’t act like a teenager or a child. And she seems mature enough in nature. Don’t know. The age of elves is always confusing no matter where it is displayed. Elves live longer than humans, I know that».
