aw fuck i never got the notif for this!

sorry for the big damn images also, tumblr is NOT letting me mush them together uwu

Doctor Kiriko is Black Jack’s rival. He’s a very skilled doctor, but his specialty is actually euthanasia. Different adaptations handle him differently, but in the og manga his morals are kind of all over the place. Sometimes he’ll only put you down if there’s no other option, sometimes he’ll break into an ongoing surgery and put down his own dad, who by all means seemed to have a good shot at recovering

I’m actually helping translate his solo manga, Shiroi Shinigami! I’m the grammar editor :3 Here’s a link to the main translator’s dedicated tumblr lol

But you can see my confusion.

It’s condescending to assume that a reader is too stupid to recognize when a character is doing something harmful or crossing a taboo in a piece of fiction.

It’s patronizing to believe that a reader will have their morals compromised by reading fiction and be reprogrammed by it to believe that the harmful action and crossing taboos is good in real life.

It’s ridiculous to act like people can’t read about characters harming others or crossing taboos in fiction without starting to believe it’s okay to harm people or cross taboos in real life.

It’s unrealistic to assume that you know what reason someone has for reading a piece of fiction in which harm occurs or taboos are crossed.

It’s disgusting and boundary crossing for you to speculate about and fixate on someone else’s’ sexual habits based on the fiction they consume.
