Rumiko Takahashi and Ken Akamatsu are the reason modern Otaku anime/ manga even exist. You're welcome.

Rumiko's crimes against the romcom will sadly go unpunished in this life.

You misunderstand, without her there would be no romcom as you know it. It would be an entirely different genre, probably. She created everything.

>>279968388
Yep we'd have more things like Touch and less things like Love Hina, the horror.

anime began its decline in the 80s

I hate Kagome

>>279968687
You say that like Mitsuru Adachi is not also a war criminal.

>he doesn't know

How is she any different than her male counterparts who also write self-insert sloppa? At least her self-inserts actually have personality and aren’t just bland herbivore betas whose only personality is “nice.” Sure they might be annoying, naggy tsunderes but I’ll honestly take a self-insert that I can hate then one that makes me feel nothing.

>>279968299 (OP)
Is she a lesbian?

>>279968299 (OP)
He is out there fighting for your right to have loli hentai!

>>279968991
We know Kikyo

>>279969050
My hero

>>279969162
She’s a tranny, like Chris-Chan.

>>279968388
Yes and someone should punish her for this

>>279968323
her only crime is not showing us her puppies more often when she was younger

>>279968299 (OP)
Rumiko just made good comedies. Modern "otaku" are a commercialized phenomenon ultimately created by artificial "otaku" shows like Haruhi, more interested in being pandered to than actually being enthusiasts.

Rumiko practically started the entire waifufag and harem genres though.

>>279969180
That's why he's my hero

>>279968299 (OP)
No you

>>279968323
Ataru and Ranma btfo every single modern romcom protagonist though

>>279970805
>Ranma
You only like “him” because he can turn into a cute girl and you’re a tranny lover.

>>279970805
Ataru only, poor Ranma is forcibly getting fucked over despite his reasonable mind wanting to get out of the engagement he is in.
Even Inuyasha got better than Ranma in the end.

How did you know
