The Rising of the Shield Hero was the very popular show that had this trope, but there are some others.
Also that Ancient Magus Bride one came out nearly the same time.
Eeeeeeh Ancient Magus Bride is playing with slightly problematic tropes but it's a show about found family and overcoming trauma, it's more in the ball park of Beauty and the Beast than cryptofash wish fulfillment bull like shield hero
Oh absolutely but the very premise is horrible and the force-bathing at the start is wtf.
Aw does that one have that? I had heard good things about it, but shit.
He literally buys her and force-bathes her like a child in the first 10 minutes of episode 1. I despised it.
Yikes that's worse than I imagined. Thanks for the heads up.
It's still a very good show and worth checking out. I don't think they really glorify slavery, the tone of the show is very depressing all throughout.
