Cringe as phenomenon is anything which makes one recoil, so lacks unified origin (but because the origin is a virtual threat, it's typically a social danger); despite this, the recognizable kind today is the realization that someone is made up of shallow virtual experiences.

"Cringe" and "LARP" are clearly the central means of expression in the Chuunibyou anime, and these are understood simply as elements of life the audience will relate to; but what is at stake is also the audience's own relation to viewing anime and the distinction it enforces.

Fantasies and fiction, even those trivially promoted, contain the parallel dynamics which concern us in our own lives; Rikka's enacted fiction is an elaborated vision of how we all anyway first react to difficulties in reality: recourse to fiction, fantasy, dreams, etc.

[HOW TO HELP A DOG THAT WAS ABUSED AND CAN'T RELAX OR PLAY?] "I think lots of personal interaction, perceiving what he's experiencing, and giving him rubdowns and body pleasure, good massages, rubbing his head and neck and ears a lot while paying close attention, trying to draw out little bits of pleasure that are there." — Ray Peat (2021)

Speech and theoretical action are for a large number instinctually valued over action itself to such an extent that one suspects the existence of a deep and unconscious calculus demanding a shift in morality to prioritize the word over the event.

Once enough people have decided that speech would be an easier game to master, it effectively already is the moral domain.

I'm going to have to remember to check original editions more frequently, as I'm only finding this out now. & the specifics of this case are not important, in general I want to know what the original vision was rather than being given a silently corrected 3rd party version.

Look Back oddly enough is something I find to be elusive, although clearly in one sense it's an exceptionally simple and direct narrative, so I doubt others find it confusing. But there's a lot I can't place about it and this kind of interference doesn't help.

In this case it's minor enough, but I'm simply more interested in what Tatsuki Fujimoto thinks (regardless of error) than I am in what a board of mental health public perception management decides upon.
