Pretty Cure?!

Pretty Cure's great! I remember watching the first episode of Futari wa when I was young, but Mepple's voice grated on my ears and it turned me off to the show entirely. But upon seeing one of my favorite bloggers gush about Heartcatch, I decided to check it out, and man it won me over! I still consider Heartcatch to be my favorite Precure series, even though it's been a while since I've seen it. A couple years later, I saw Splash Star and liked it. Now I've seen Suite, Dokidoki, Happiness Charge, and currently Go! Princess Precure. I haven't seen Futari wa+Max Heart, Yes, Fresh, or Smile. I consider Happiness Charge to be the weakest season despite it having my favorite character.

I did, however, write my own fan fic, called Twilight Pretty Cure: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1028870...ht-Pretty-Cure

Unfortunately, as much as I like Pretty Cure, I ABSOLUTELY HATE THE FANDOM, ESPECIALLY THE TUMBLR SECTION OF IT!!!! Dear lord, I have never seen such hateful, bitter, closed-minded, judgmental SJWs in a fandom for a kids show in my entire life! Some of the elite members there treated me like garbage and made me out to be some spawn of Satan all because I featured the mildest implications of rape and victim blaming in my fan fic (Don't worry, it wasn't NC-17 worthy stuff). I had similar content in my other fan fics but nobody I knew made a huge deal of it like these SJWs did! They hated my fan fic in general and keep accusing it of being offensive, ableist, and problematic, but never elaborated on why, and when they did, it was always "you're doing this therefore you're awful." Not only that, ever since one incident, whenever I make a mistake in my writing, they don't handle it like rational people or PM me about it. Instead, they make a huge song and dance about it and paint me to be some slut shaming rape culture advocate! And when I tried to stick up for myself once, one person, the author of a Precure fan fic I really liked, wrote a ten paragraph rant about how I'm a bad person who doesn't care about anyone but myself because I didn't put trigger warnings in (knew nothing about them at the time) and how I have no empathy and don't care about people I offend and a bunch of other lies! Good lord! I'd show you, but I'm pretty sure there's gotta be a rule around here that doesn't allow discussion of internet drama. The people there have hurt me in ways you can't imagine! I stopped enjoying writing because of them, and I'm still trying to recover!

*sigh* But I have met some good people in the fandom who have become my best friends, so it's not all bad. Overall, I like Precure, hate the fandom.
