i know it’s because serirei as a ship exists in part because people just like reigen and getting someone to ship with him is a way to express that, like the reigen feelings came before the ship, and people like to make their popular favs angsty and sad...

...but it’s SO funny to me that out of the two of them, reigen gets the “troubled mentally ill guy with baggage who’s comforted by his partner” treatment. as if serizawa isn’t the most traumatized character ever put to animation

#babbles #does this make sense #ship hate #not really? i like serirei but tagging this jic #but yea the like... typical Seme Uke dynamics people ascribe to serirei amuse me to no end #literally people only make serizawa the big burly protective comforting one cuz hes tall. ...and bc they like reigen more than him #like idk how to put it but the meowmeowification of reigen has been devastating to serirei economy #bc it just becomes 'a way to make reigen content' or 'The Reigen Ship(tm)' and not really exploring the chars on their own merits #or any interesting conflicts etc etc or anything past... Reigen And His Plus One #tldr. i like serirei but fanon serirei is so much wasted potential to me<//3 #as someone who loves serizawa but sees serirei make up like 90% of the stuff of him BOOOO #also stole some of this phrasing from fig bc we have this discussion OFTEN LMAO
