Posts and discussion about comics (and, sometimes, associated media) by the artist centurii-chan.

They have a history of edge-posting - nothing that the current mod considers outright racist, sexist, or otherwise hateful, but problematic enough that you may want to look elsewhere for horny comics.

While you're here, abide by the following rules or face a ban :

  1. Don't be dicks to each other.
  2. No hate speech, racism, sexism.
  3. Posts should be related to centuriichan comics.
  4. Mark NSFW posts as NSFW.

TL;DR: Centuriichan has some problematic edge-posts, but they haven't crossed into what I consider maliciously bigoted J.K. Rowling territory. If they've crossed your personal line, I support you leaving and blocking the comm for your own mental health. I'm going to keep posting the comics I like.

I've added comm rules in the sidebar, and a link to the discussion thread so others can see and make their own decision.

I checked out zaza's link and I agree with others who think most of the examples in it are reading too deep.

  • "No son of mine is going to be a chocolatier" is clearly riffing off of the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory remake. I can see how it could be read racist, but from what I saw the milkman series is about an edgy loli milkmaid breaking bad.
  • The British/Spanish colonizers comic doesn't glorify colonizers. The British colonizer is portrayed as a drug dealer and the women with the Spanish colonizer are clearly not smiling. I can see the argument for it trivializing historical rape, but I also saw Jon Stewart making a joke about Lincoln's assassination this week. Jokes about historical atrocities isn't a touchy subject for me unless they're used to trivialize or justify similar behavior in the present, and I don't think that's happening here.
  • I saw the pickers comic and thought it was 2edgy5me, but it looked like a one-off in a sea of horny historical meme-posting.
  • The "gamer power" comic is new to me. I don't know how old centurii-chan is, but it looks like a 14 year old who discovered that it's fun to troll people with ragebait. Maybe it's a phase and they'll grow out of it, or maybe the money gets too good and they make it their whole personality.

I cut people off when they're being malicious trolls and/or unapologetically incurious, not because they're ignorant or immature.

But I also acknowledge that context matters and not everyone draws their line at the same place. Not everyone has the energy to call in problematic behavior or tolerate sussy bullshit. Not everyone wants to wait for the smoking gun. So if you see that post and decide to unsub and walk away, that's perfectly sane and I support that.

98% of the time, Centurii-chan is cute, horny and fun, so I'm going to keep posting the comics I like.

If/when the other 2% goes from edgy and problematic to malicious, I'll either let someone else take over the sub or shut it down myself, depending on where we're at.

Comment here if you have questions about the comm or want to suggest amendments to the rules. Thanks for raising awareness and thanks for not being dicks to each other.

In general, I suspect that the edgeposting is just that - Centurii-chan has always had an edgy, internet culture overdosed side. Since Centurii-chan is (likely) Filipino, there's also an element of cultural distance there that may not always preserve the seriousness with which we regard core cultural issues which are nonetheless highly present and joked about (often, again, in an edgy manner) in Anglosphere internet culture.

It's a shame, but the "hiding your power level" shit makes me think it'll be indisputable within a year or two. These "4chan edgelords" often become more open over time, especially with how the audience has reacted. With fascism booming in the US right now, bigots will be more out and proud than we've ever seen.

I'm disappointed too, but I've followed these right wingers long enough to know when they're in deep. I just don't see a likely path out of bigotry for them.
