One of my favorite artists.
And I think it's only a matter of time that its "unironic fandom" becomes of a similar or superior size to its majority meme zoomer crowd, like with what happened to Sonic after the movies came out.
It's unlikely to have a large South Park-like shota fandom, though.
(1) the fandom is mostly younger people, zoomers and late millennials, unlike South Park, whose audience was cultivated with Gen X and early millennials, so there is vastly less willingness to sexualize characters who are minors, which not only prevents the formation of a large horny moe fandom, but also a large section of psychotic hyperfixation;
(2) probably way more important: the Japanese are not interested.
While I tend to prefer Western fanart styles, I do also think that the average Japanese fan artist is both objectively more skilled and way more productive.
That combination of a higher baseline quality and an immense backlog of art is what gets the hyperfixation mind virus to spread like it did with South Park, and it's how you get most of your art to come into existence in the first place.
