M's Media Menagerie
Thoughtful Dumping Grounds
Trope: Lolis
Lolis refer to absurdly cute (and waifu-d) young girls in anime and manga. Lolis are usually shown in an enticing/erotic manner, and it’s not uncommon to have a loli character with an absurd age (the thousand year loli exists!) in order to make them “legal”. I wouldn’t label normal depictions of young girls with “loli”. They’re meant to be romance-able. Derived from “lolita complex”.
Welcome to the Menagerie.
Here is where M logs their media activity. Partly because Goodreads is forgettable and keeping physical logs is harder. Sometimes M writes a lot. Sometimes M doesn’t write enough. It doesn’t matter. This is just a for-fun little blog so that M can remember what they thought about whatever they watched or read or played or. Whatever.
What is M?
I read. Voraciously. I have subscriptions to those book things on digital retailers. I consume books at nearly all hours. The hours I don’t spend reading? I’m writing. I’m drawing. I have a problem. I have a problem in that I love to read things that are in the same vein repeatedly. Book journals don’t work and as much as I text my friends screenshots of book passages, it doesn’t scratch the itch. Now I’m going to be doing… tiny… tiny book reports.
