I honestly suspect that it’s just something he was told in the past to say if ever asked for plausible deniability reasons if the ratings board came around. And it just sorta… stuck.

It is just very funny/flummoxing to imagine Ito drawing the line THERE and being like "it's not MEANT to be sex, you're imagining that, okay?!" While also, like, this exists, yknow? Totally unrelated youtu.be/vKAzoXUC-vM?...

Yeah like, this is such a weak 'gotcha'. Plenty of things aren't 'intended', and yet! I can think of SO many examples of absolutely racist ass things in media, and crew going '🫣 oh nooo we didnt intend that!!!' Doesnt change anything! Author's intent falls in the face of the audience reaction.

Also, for a series that is so sympathetic to women: thats kind a worse answer! Wtf do you mean you didnt intend it to look like SA? That fuck??? Look at your work, dawg!!!

lol jesus christ, i have never seen this video..

"Keep your sass and do your research" is an ADORABLE way to say "I am a complete cockwomble, should not be around women, and my hard drive needs checking"

charmer, isn't he? lol

You mean the name didn't tell you that?

Apparently Ito is going on a weird tear and harrassing a woman. I saw something and tried to follow up, but now the account talking about it went silent.

The context I heard was that the woman was harassing him/trying to cancel him for not confirming her headcanon that James was sexually abused (and it would not surprise me if Ito lashed back, he's kind of a reactive dude)
