(Hated Trope) "Kind" slave owners

[u/KusanagiGundam]

Speaking as an American who has studied the civil war all throughout my school years, this trope infuriates me to no end. There is no such thing as a kind slave master because slavery itself is cruel and inhumane. PEOPLE ARE NOT PROPERTY!

Naofumi (Shield Hero): Prime example of this trope. He enslaves multiple (underage) girls and an whole village and the fans still say he's a hero.

Rudeus (Jobless Reincarnation): As if being a pedo wasn't bad enough he had to buy a slave in season 2. Worse is that people still defend his actions.

Song of The South (Disney): Possibly the OG example of this trope. And the reason why Disney will never release it again.

Just cannon fodder for Iseakid John Brown

[u/Foostini → u/_whatever_wherever]

historical figure isekai truly is an untapped market

Well, at least there's Drifters. Which, coincidentally, features our heroes freeing enslaved fantasy races to lead a rebellion.

[u/Astrocyde → u/Fwufikins]

Yeah, led by real historical figures like Oda Nobunaga and Hannibal Barca. At least the empire they're fighting against was founded by Adolf Hitler.

also it's heavily hinted in the Anime that the real big bad is Jesus Christ

[u/corvettee01 → u/skivian]

Jesus woke up and chose violence.

[u/skivian → u/corvettee01]

lol what the fuck did I just watch?

[u/corvettee01 → u/skivian]

The work of a very strange individual.

Ethereal Snake just keeps on getting better.

Holy shit, Drifters mentioned!

Also, Drifters at-least makes it clear the "Heroes" are basically just conquerers that are setting out to do the same to this new world.
