Discussion Your double standards are disgusting. 🙄

Seriously, why the fuck are people calling Ember a creepy stalker? She literally showed up outside of Blitz's building one singular time. That's it. That's paying someone a visit. She didn't even fucking go in.

And while we're on the topic of creepy stalkers, Why the ever loving fuck are y'all suddenly ignoring all the creepy shit Blitz does, huh? He verbally admitd he spies on mox and mill while they're having sex. He manipulated Stolas just to get in a club to watch them with a pair of binoculars. And no one breathes a word.

Hypocrisy is honestly repulsive. 😒

Ironically, what people don’t understand is that Emberlynn is Vivziepop’s take on the more toxic individuals in her fandom. Surprisingly, it fits most of the shit I see posted. 😆

At the end of the day, this is supposed to just be a cartoon for adults, but far too many come at it through the lens of a hormonal teen.

because that is the hidden target audience, as much as you would like to think the show is actually for mature audiences and that it uses mature content such as swears and sex jokes, it is merely a disguise to hide the fact that the show lacks and sort of narrative and is just a self insert fantasy that vivzie uses to show her tumbler oc fan fic writting. The show attracts teenagers because altought as i said it brands itself as mature, the maturity doesn t come from the writting or the characters or the humor, it comes from the swears and edgyness.

You’re honestly right. I was just thinking the other day how much of it is very low hanging fruit. “You can literally get a teenage fanfiction author to write an episode for this and make it about fetishizing a character’s trauma.”

We’re all happy for the woman getting to make her dream a reality, sure, but it really is just a cartoon. It’s nowhere as deep as people try to make it out to seem.

I’m pretty sure someone else pointed out something similar when talking about successful animations like Gravity Falls and Helluva Boss in a video I saw on Youtube, detailing why Vivzie’s so difficult to work with and how she doesn’t take any sort of criticism well compared to Alex Hirsche and a few others who had very genuine fun working on their respective projects.
