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.

I feel there's been some very sus behavior coming from centuriichan and I wonder what role this sublemmy plays in unintentionally normalizing racist rhetoric

Unfortunately it's a reddit comment but it compiles a very good list of very questionable trends in their comics

There's also this one making light of colonial r*pe and drug exploitation:

I personally don't see much difference between this covert form of racist and colonial normalization via cutesy anime characters and pebbletoss' more overt palpable webcomic form of racism (might even argue that this is worse since it has enough plausible deniability)

Curious to hear your opinions

The artist does almost everything on paid commission. Subscribers submit requests and generally the highest bidder gets their idea drawn.

Couldn't they just... refuse to draw racist shit tho? I don't think 'someone paid me to do it' is a valid excuse.

Of course they could and of course it isn't. It isn't a justification so much as the mechanism that fuels it. It is just how markets work. They're meeting a demand in the market, and now they make a living off of it.

Though to be honest I don't follow the artist that closely and it sounds like they're far more into it than just their art conveys. I subscribed to them way back in I think 2020 before they took the porn pipeline.
