I'm kinda the opposite. I don't like seeing characters from stuff I like because I have trouble separating them from the media I've seen them from. Gives me this weird jarring feeling of like "She wouldn't do that..." Goes especially when the artist completely changes the personality of the character to fit the drawing.
Idk why complain about them being masturbatory though. Usually an OC is made to masturbate to, yes, that is the point. The reason artists like drawing them is they're basically all their fetishes and proclivities condensed into one character. I guess if you don't have the same fetishes as the artist it can be annoying, but usually you follow an artist because you have the same fetish as them.
