honestly it makes me very sad to see so much of the kaeluc discourse be centered around “well the direct chinese makes it very clear that they don’t actually see eachother as siblings blah blah blah” bc while that’s a completely fine and awesome way to view the characters, i sincerely miss the days when the general reaction to “BUT THEY’RE /BROTHERS/” was a very deadpan “are you new here?”. it sucks that that’s become such an unsafe response to give.
I remember back in the old days of anime fandom in the west where we would gleefully talk about our slash twincest ships.
People have been into shipcest forever. Antis are never going to stop people.
Just look at Soap Operas and telenovellas!
