He literally eats people's trauma and makes them relive it every night and also intentionally made a number of people mad and everybody's all 'don't hurt the poor boi.' They even go so far as to hate the characters who yell at him like Melanie for being mad but when he's mad it's fine because his life is just so hard.
the fandom takes his very complex character and boils him down to "stupid" or ignores any wrong he's done in favor of viewing him as wholly good when that's literally against the point of the story
kokichi ouma:
This is more of a fandom problem, as the actual game doesn’t woobify him. The woobifying has a lot of reasons, such as his true motivations being for the sake of ending the killing game, his motive video and even some inconsistent writing with how others treat him (not gonna get into that bc this poll ain’t about it) the fandom started treating him as someone who was unfairly hated by the cast, someone selfless who had no other choice to do the awful things he did, which…
It is completely normal to hate the guy who claims to like the KILLING GAME you’re all in, said guy who is not only rude all the time, but also later on manipulated one of the kinder characters into murder. Just because Kokichi intended to end the murder game doesn’t mean that the cast should have somehow GUESSED that he’s some good guy who’s coping, and they shouldn’t have to forgive him even if that was true. Kokichi had plenty of other choices, he chose to sacrifice two people for his and his plan’s sake, especially because he makes sure to rub it in in the most cruel way possible to the person he manipulated.
More than anything, though, is how a lot of fan work make him so…bland. Where is his flavor? Where is the little shit liar that I love? What happened to the guy who is an incredible manipulator who perfectly manages to masquerade his true feelings over the situation? Why do so many fan works defang him and make him bad at lying the moment someone asks if he’s sad? That’s not my boy. His whole character is confusing the player with lies and his intentions.
“They're a full volleyball play!! Receive set spike!!! They've been working so hard together as a trio since first year and they are a trio always so let them be a trio who kiss as well!!!!”
“A classic Trio that balances each other out so well, I especially like when Daichi and Suga act as hype men for Asahi and build him up despite his insecurities. Daichi needs the help to deal with Chaotic Suga, and he deserves to have two beautiful men as partners! I especially like the canon dynamic of Suga being incredibly supportive of the other two and cheering them on from the sidelines, and in return they help remind him how important he is to the team. Just so much support and history and love between these three!”

La Banda di Fiori
(@raybotonline)
Consisting of Anastagio Horowitz, Valentino Arrighetti, Luca Palladino, Connie Allegri and Gennadiya Nikolaev.
Who are they?
They're a chosen family of queer people who found themselves without a home in some way or another. Originally it was just Anastagio and Valentino, but along the way they took in Luca and Connie and reconnected with Gen (who they knew in high school). There's interpersonal drama! There's connection and love! There's a lot going on that I don't think I can fit in one form answer! But you can read about them on my Toyhouse: https://toyhou.se/raybot/characters/folder:1640853
dream girlfriend beyond comprehension dreamed by @kratt09
A person from a wild dream I had where I was on some yacht that was also a library/bookstore?? we browsed books together and she found a Calvin and hobbes book that didn't exist. We also survived a flood on the river and were in lesbianisms together.
I had another dream abt her where I took a bus to a run-down Bridge where the yacht was and looked all over for her but I couldn't find her. She was lurking in the corners of my mind so I knew the dream was related to the first, but I never found her. I think she had gone to a space camp or something.
Thal Baker dreamed by @gaia-mix-nicolosi
A cool young guy with really red hair. He would'nt actually bake Thals, though. (Eventually I decided it was short for Theodore Alexander)

Vote 2023: The polls have closed and when all the votes are counted in the first match of the Quarterfinals in the 2023 Battle of the Week Voting Tournament, for the first time in three years, the number one seed from any party will be sent packing. The number four seed, Feliciano Vargas/Italy from Hetalia, the previous number one seed from two years ago, will go and defeat the number one seed Riko from Made in Abyss 39-38.
The Hetalia fandom, first time in two years, will be moving on to the Semifinals. They await either Jolyne Cujoh (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure) or Piccolo (Dragon Ball) on October 8 for the nomination. And for Made in Abyss...got the number one seed in the anime community, was the favorite to get the nomination and possibly the voting tournament as a whole...one and done. But this is y'all's first time in this voting tournament, so might as well consider this as a learning experience.

Who are they?
Welcome to Tumblr High, home of the Sexyman Descendants! This is a fan community of all high school-aged descendants of Tumblr Sexymen, but since it would be literally impossible to include every single Descendant that people have made, we decided to stick with the main 6 that everyone knows and loves. Teen drama? Check. Student council? Check. Prom and homecoming? You got it! All multiplied by Tumblresque shenanigans? Of course! We hope you’ll fall in love the Sexyman Descendants as much as we have :]
