[catch up on witch watch] here's a take

what Nemu is doing with her cat form is PROFOUNDLY fucked up and she deserves to get called out on it

I don't even know what kind of crime is but it has to be something

between this and someone marking out over another aspect, I think I know what I'm gonna be watching when I have the spoons for it.

if I was Wolf I would be telling Moi immediately

like if I found out that my pet cat was a human who masqueraded as a cat for the gratification of being petted and bathed and brushed by me

I would probably throw up

yeah It's the same issue I have with Ryoga in Ranma. Like, okay he wandered into it on accident rather than doing this from the outset, but he's had so many opportunities to tell the truth. He just chooses not to

yeah. it's.... yeah

tangent

there's a side plot about a teacher who's super into Uron Mirage and one of her students is a big name UM fanartist

and the teacher is trying desperately to avoid revealing that she basically worships the ground the student-artist walks on

and I think every story with a student-teacher romance subplot should do this instead

Oh that's real good

the dynamic between the teacher and student Otaku friends is really good

it intertwines how fandom and hobbies can form intergenerational friendships but then also plays with certain power structures while also being mindful of them

rather than pretending it's not a problem it makes the problem funny
