What is the absolute worst trope in anime, and why is "servant worships the ground its master walks on and will give up life for it"?

>HOW DARE YOU!! IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK TO ____ YOU HAVE TO GET PAST ME FIRST
>>
Thats not just an anime trope

This extreme personality worship exists irl as well and especially in Asian countries

Deep down the vast majority of people want to be dominated, the Japanese are just honest about it. Americans want to believe in the cowboy myth, that they're all rugged individualist loners, but it's simply not true. Covid era proved that, if nothing else.

Even the majority of the anti-authoritarian 4chan loners, the people who hate being told want to do, don't actually want to live their lives the way they claim to. They desire to be ruled, they go according to the pace set by everyone else and tell themselves they're secretly a freedom fighter, but without those standards to rail against they'd be completely lost and helpless. Any time you see a video of some brave guy actually standing up for himself and going his own way at great personal risk, you'll see a hundred comments saying "We need more people like this!" while zero of them have any intention of becoming one of those people.

People inevitably want kings, because what a king does is take away responsibility. Responsibility is terrifying, because when it's your own, if you fuck up, you lose everything. So it's much better for someone else to take it. Then you can brag that your king is the best king. Or, you can console yourself saying kings are the worst, and things would be much better without the evil king, and that's why everything has gone wrong for you, while not doing anything on your own to correct the course of your life. After all, it's the king's fault, and that takes all the weight off.

What do you mean you don't take your own balls as penance for misaligning bossu samas coffee cup and lick the grounds out of it when he's done don't you have any loyalty?
>>
>>
>>287603007
This is true. Most people, a vast majority doesn't want to do their own thing, they do at most something other people do with slight adjustments. They do what they are told instead of coming up with things completely on your own because now that's difficult, now you have to really thing about it and be responsible

There's nothing worse than a token bitchy lesbian in a non-yuri series.

>>287614788
Because Kirari likes seeing how people act and Jabami is the biggest curiosity at school.

it's definitely the homosexual main character that rejects the desperate to fuck girl with some gay line like

Closest thing you’re getting is some chuuni “fallen angel” who shops at Hot Topic and calls herself cursed. Actual biblically accurate angels don’t survive more than one episode in anime before turning into waifubait or a final boss.

Isn't this trope usually and essentially just a retelling of Ranmaru (both his relationship with Nobu and his death by loyalty)?
Every evil overlord is already a Nobunaga (rather than a Lucifer/Satan like in the west) so it seems natural that the villain would come with his/her own cocksleeve battle-butler.

Glad I'm not intelligent enough to recognize tropes or themes or patterns shared between anime. I couldn't name a single theme if you asked me to and I'm proud of it.
