Is this actually that common of a thing? I try to stay away from the trash side of anime, which is to say a solid majority of it nowadays and especially anything that could be described with the word harem, but I struggle to accept the apparent reality that slave romances are a common trope in the genre. Like that’s straight against the wall, do not pass go, do not collect $200 kind of behavior and to think that that has such an audience that it’s become a staple of the genre is maddening. In the lovecraftian sense
The Rising of the Shield Hero was the very popular show that had this trope, but there are some others.
Also that Ancient Magus Bride one came out nearly the same time.
Eeeeeeh Ancient Magus Bride is playing with slightly problematic tropes but it's a show about found family and overcoming trauma, it's more in the ball park of Beauty and the Beast than cryptofash wish fulfillment bull like shield hero
Oh absolutely but the very premise is horrible and the force-bathing at the start is wtf.
Aw does that one have that? I had heard good things about it, but shit.
He literally buys her and force-bathes her like a child in the first 10 minutes of episode 1. I despised it.
Yikes that's worse than I imagined. Thanks for the heads up.
There was also one called something like "How Not to Summon a Demon Lord" where two women use a spell that's supposed to make the protagonist their slave but it gets reversed and they become his slaves.
