In the Japanese creative world—from Manga to Visual-kei—there is a fundamental, collective understanding: "Fiction is fiction."
Recently, I learned about the term "Proshipper." In Japan, we’ve never needed such labels because the boundary between fantasy and reality is our natural starting point, not a political stance.
To clarify my position: I am not a "hardcore otaku." I am a straight person. However, through friends who loved CLAMP, I learned to appreciate their art and history. They were pioneers of the 80s doujinshi scene, exploring themes that were absolute taboos back then. Their work is beautiful, and I respect that creative sanctuary.
Historically, genres like BL or GL were never meant to be "socially accepted." Fans of those genres enjoyed them in the shadows, strictly respecting the boundary between a "story" and real life. It was a shared cultural manner in Japan.
For me, "fiction is fiction" and "reality is reality." In the real world, I respect everyone’s lifestyle and have no prejudice against any couple I see on the street. Accepting a taboo in art does not mean endorsing it in reality.
If you cannot engage with a work as a complete fantasy, then it is simply not for you. Please respect our cultural sanctuary.
