Anime has ruined men’s expectations for women and life itself
For the last few decades anime has been feeding young men a diet of perfect girls, perfect romances, and perfect lives where loyalty, purity, and meaning are taken for granted. When you grow up with that as your baseline, how can the real world not look like a sick joke in comparison?
The average guy raised on this stuff is taught to expect devotion, softness, and idealized feminine beauty. Instead he finds hookup culture, economic precarity, and women who see relationships as transactional. He’s taught that hard work and virtue will earn him recognition and love, but in reality it earns him a mediocre paycheck and maybe a Tinder date with a single mother if he’s lucky. The gap between the dream and the reality becomes unbearable.
So what happens? A lot of these men retreat. They become NEETs, locking themselves away with their screens because at least the fiction never betrays them. To them, life isn’t worth living if the promises of youth are just lies, and women aren’t worth interacting with if every encounter only reminds them how far they fall short of the fantasy.
The question is: what are the social ramifications when an entire generation of men decides reality isn’t worth participating in? What happens when millions of young men give up on women, families, careers, and society itself because the illusion was sweeter than the truth?
