#so my ‘solution’ to this mess#divert the attention#make holivia break up right before the premiere#it won’t solve the problem but it’ll buy harry some time#and he won’t have to drag her around which at this point will only make matters worse i think#honestly#a custody case#queerbaiting allegations#an upsett fanbase#that’s bad#break up holivia#get through the premiere#think really hard about what you’re going to say for MP#and take it from there maybe

the life cycle of this buddie getting shut down in s4 theory is exactly what I meant when I said the fandom is queerbaiting itself.
people take a snippet of bts info that they have almost no context for -> extrapolate wildly -> the theory spreads, more stuff gets tacked on -> it spreads even further, now minus any context -> it gets ingrained into the fanon lore and treated as a fact -> ppl get their hopes up, then feel cheated if/when nothing comes of it.
in less than a day we’ve gone from oliver saying bi buck was pitched to him at some point in the last couple of years but got squashed by someone above him, to people saying that the shooting/will was definitely originally an explicit love confession.
To be clear we’ve no idea what that version of buck’s coming out would’ve looked liked. Hell, depending on how early it got scrapped, the writers might not know much beyond buck = bi.
and I’m not saying it’s not plausible (to a degree at least) but some of you are acting like oliver leaked a deleted buddie confession scene in 4k. When all he did was make a pretty vague reference to a storyline that never was.
It’s fine to speculate just please stop presenting it as if tim minear is in your dms.

I’m not going to watch this video, because it will probably get my blood pressure rising. Could this title just be clickbait or ragebait? Possibly, but based on the comments I saw, probably not.
I bet it is filled with:
1. An inaccurate definition of what queerbait actually is.
2. A lack of understanding of past anime that have queerbaited (Getbackers, Saiyuki, Princess Princess, etc.) and a lack of anime that have existed in more nuanced and subtle queer spaces (Nabari no Ou - written by an actual x-gender, asexual mangaka, Tiger & Bunny, Samurai Flamenco (from my understanding), and possibly the anime series called Pet (I only watched like the first 3 episodes or so of this one).
3. A straight or gay reading without a single glance at more nuanced queer interpretation of the pair (aka an aspec or queerplatonic reading).
Based on the comments (and the tagged sections of the video), it seems that there was a mention of how the female characters were treated in the series, but I wonder if there was any analysis on how which female characters were treated in what ways, how those female characters engaged within Japanese society, and what messages the series might be saying about Japanese society as a whole, and about the world of men (the hitman business Rei and Kazuki were apart of) vs. the world of women (the childcare business Rei and Kazuki enter into).
Working three jobs now, I don’t have the time or energy to watch this video right now, but if anyone else does, please let me know if this is an accurate interpretation or not. I’ll update the post if need be.
But, this is such a stale and broken take on the series and it saddens me that basically one of the only videos I’ve seen on this series, going actually in-depth on it, from someone with a decently sized platform is going with such a bland and honestly straight up wrong take (the series isn’t queerbait, since it was never ever promoted or advertised in a way to make you ship Kazuki and Rei). A show having queer subtext or a queer reading to it =/= queerbait, which is a specific marketing based term.
I feel like an interpretation like this one is missing out on the whole point of the series, as well as on various other messages and themes it is trying to tell. And if this is just a ragebait or clickbait style title, then that’s frustrating too, because it instantly turns me off from actually watching this video and what it might have to say and tell about Buddy Daddies as a series.
#Buddy Daddies#BD#KazuRei#UGH#ffs#I KNEW the stupid queerbait allegations would follow this series for forever#even though an amazing queer and aspec interpretation of the series is just sitting#right there#but so many people in fandom have a hard time with#those kinds of#interpretations#long post#rant#fandom wank#sorry

What are some things about dreams physicality/appearance that shocked you when he face revealed? (Like things you were expected that ended up shocking you, not necessarily specific features bc none of us knew those)
how not straight he looked
#im sorry but for a guy that had as many queerbaiting allegations he had no business looking that queer#<- i know i know stereotyping is bad but whatever i can saay it#for a more serious answer his eyes i feel like i could stare at them for hours idk he has a lovely gaze

people will watch a man be psychosexually obsessed with another man, give another man a handjob while asking him if he's going to behave, watch a man jack off in a bath tub and then proceed to drink the water of said bath and still say that it's queerbaiting

the perception of dream after the face reveal going from "hes a straight man queerbaiting!" to "yeah hes gay, look at him" was so fascinating. i dont think that man catches queerbait strays anymore full stop 😭
this is really fucking breathtaking. And correct
#I've seen a few braindead tweets about him being a queerbait er but they don't take off as the racist allegations I Wonder Why#I also think the Face reveal helped because well Um we saw how he looked when he talked about george that is NOT straight#star anons

someone just mentioned marvel movies and i wondered for a second what's meant to be coming next and then went 'oh. fucking loki'
#personal crap#that's one of my hot takes loki is really mid#it's like everything i didn't like about moffat era doctor who on steroids#smart-arse writing that's nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is? check#obnoxious characters I'm supposed to like way way more than i ever could? check#deeply uncomfortable romances and queerbaiting? check#and at least moffat who didn't have an alleged abuser in its cast#seriously why did disney immediately drop james gunn but are still clinging on to jonathan majors

god i hate you "this is queerbaiting bc my ship is queer and they're not together" bitches can we please have some fun.
#do queer ships have to be happy for you to recognise them#this is abt the johnlock-esque good omens viewers. can you be normal#you dont Need theories this is not queerbait its just a silly fun show and aziracrow are going through the miscommunication trope#also directed at the macden shippers who have migrated in from tiktok who think sunny revolves around macden#ITS A SILLY POOPY FARTY SHOW#i too theorized abt dtamhd because its fun to roleplay as a johnlocker for a 2005 sitcom#and also im pretty sure everyone theorizing macden gay sex 30 minutes uncut for dtamhd was doing it for funsies#and not writing long ass documents clearly showing how you one don't know how writing works and two have no respect for your 'peers'#nandermo 'queerbait' allegers i hate you too can u open ur EYES

honestly I really didn’t care if midnight museum wasn’t gay but then they decided to make khatha & dome’s story the gayest forbidden lovers story ever and still have the audacity to repeatedly call them brothers LMAO
#axelle rants#midnight museum#midnight museum the series#I kept laughing bc there's nothing brotherly about this shit just say you're in love atp :')))#I love how the original script said 'they look like they love each other' and the eng translation added 'like brothers' to make it no homo#I really wanted to defend this show against the queerbaiting allegations but the way they're writing it is just too weird
