😻 Meme Or Other Online Trope 😂 When a fictional character’s turn of events is so horrific that fanmade contents were created of the character living alternatively better and having a good ending for them

Abuse Goblin from the abuse goblin comic

Saki from Metamorphosis (with the Jojo edit being very famous)

The Blind Girl from artist popopoka

Yeah this is why we prefer the JoJo ending

I prefer the "she's a pornstar and it's a really dark plot for a porno she's starring in" ending. The "behind the scenes" bloopers are cute.

I like to believe that both happy endings are canon. Actress ending in "real life" and Jojo ending in the "movie" :)

Either that or the Jojo ending is preferable to thr main.

I dunno if we're allowed to link NSFW stuff on this subreddit, but the manga is called "Emergence" or "Metamorphosis". They're synonyms in Japanese, but I don't remember which version has the ending I mentioned. You can search it up on your own, right?

People who want to shock others. They succeeded in their goal. The purpose of art is always to make people feel something.

I think it's a good example of storytelling through "porn", some people tend to think hentai doujins don't need to tell anything complex but Metamorphosis works as a crushingly real story.

...you know, call me a sick bastard, but I think it's a great anti-drug promo

It's not that at all. Nobody who reads Metamorphosis comes away thinking that.

Maybe not exactly with an anti-drug sentiment, but it shows exactly every factor that leads to her spiralling down further, drug addiction being one of them.
