the Naruto ending makes me sad, all the negativity makes me sad, I’m just so disappointed with all of this
Hi everyone, I thought I would share with you something that had came into my inbox not even five minutes ago and I must say that this actually did hurt me a little bit. I write fanfiction because it’s what i enjoy, and I’ve gotten better with Anon hate, as if they can’t come show their real face then obviously it isn’t that big of a deal, but it really hits me at the fact people say this to others simply because we’re over the internet. You see, I am obese, and yes I am a virgin by choice, which shouldn’t be that big of a deal or that big of an insult because saving yourself for the person you see a future with and who you love is just as wonderful as loosing it as soon as you want to with whoever you want to, but I’ve been struggling with not killing myself since I was eleven. It’s this type of behavior that makes me really hate the Naruto fandom. If someone doesn’t ship the same things you do, that is no reason for you to tell them to kill themselves, much less to try and cyber bully them when you can’t even show your face.
I work hard on my stories, do some of them need work? Yes, they do, do some of them need to be rewritten? Yes, they do, but when you do this stuff, it reflects on the entire fandom, which why I left for the most part and mainly focus on just writing fanfiction. If you don’t ship what I do, that is perfectly fine, not everyone is going to have the same likes or dislikes as me, but the fact that they would take time out of their day to try and make me feel bad about what I took hours on end to write, why couldn’t you have just left and found a story much more to their liking? I, personally, don’t hate Sakura at all, I only did what I did for two stories, after all, you can’t say I hate her because she is a main character in another one of my stories and I actually do have plans to make more stories that involve her.
I just can’t unserstand why you would do this to someone, is it simply because you’re behind a computer screen because if that’s the case, you shouldn’t say such mean things at all. It never seems to accrue to people that perhaps a person might be struggling with something, such as me struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts (Which I thank my friends for being there for me when I needed them most and still staying by me even now ) and if anything, if tonight had been one of my bad nights, and had my friend Brittany not been telling me everything was going to be fine, I probably would have done just that. Don’t be a ass to people because of a ship, because honestly, you don’t know what they might actually do, and honestly, if I knew who you were, I could honestly get you put in jail because it is an offense to tell someone to kill themselves, and it’s even more so of a offense if they do it.
If you want me to die, then say it to my face and be ready to face the charges you’ll get.
is it bad that I still don't accept the ending ? I mean I'm not angry or feel as passionate as I used to. I even changed my Naruto-oriented blog to HQ !! But I still disregard the end I take great pleasure in reading Anti 700/SS/NH stuff. Some of my friend who've like the ending (shippers obviously) said it makes me petty. And idk, does it ? Cause it kinda makes me feel guilty now.
I know EXACTLY how you feel – but you know what , blogging is not about being poised and policing your feelings!!
Blogging is about enjoying your innermost thoughts , connecting with others who feel the same way, things that may seem uninteresting or petty to other people in your real life.
Blogging is about indulging yourself - YOU are the focus. So if you enjoy reading anti- ending stuff… and as long as you are not hurting others , I don’t see any harm in it. I don’t think it’s petty.
I think its natural to feel strongly about things you care about. I have been passionate about ships and stuff too and I have moved on from them. There is nothing wrong in moving on as there is nothing in feeling that a story’s ending was not justified.
I think a major problem with Naruto fandom is that ‘we ‘ are called ‘ANTI’, There is a negative connotation to the word Anti, for a long time I struggled with it – I wanted to think I am NOT anti. Coz how can anything anti be good?
I think the word anti discourages people and makes the pro-s justified in thinking — oh those “ANTIS” are so petty. They are just cry babies. NOPE!!! That is wrong. We are actually logical thinkers who think about stuff critically, questioning things and coming up with theories instead of “blinding” believing what is served to us?
We are the people who dare to question, who ask ? who have opinions… we are not petty anti-s we are actually the real fans of the Naruto. So don’t feel badly about yourself :) There is nothing wrong or petty about how you feel. It shows that you are not one of the sheep who will consume everything without questions,. It shows you are the person with your own thoughts and your own set of viewpoints.
