Delicious.

The fact you’re using Western Animation alone proves the difference enough already.

Anime doesn’t exactly have Omni-man memes

Not to mention that it’s general “fuck you and go die” abuse, not “I hate you because I love you” Tsundere mannerisms

Fluffys truly are a mastery of all art forms.

Now I’m oddly curious of a fluffy version of Omni-man/Invincible. I would imagine that they would actually cause mortal harm to a human.

If you want superhero fluffies, you should read my stories, because there’s tons. [/shamelessplug]

Thinking more of the personalities, if I were to compare the abuse content we’d have to bring up Guro.

Fluffy super heroes don’t work because fluffies are helpless and the superhero genre is a power fantasy. They’re diametrically opposed in tone and theme because humans are, essentially, superheroes (or more often super villians) to fluffies. A normal person can feed them, house them and make their lives enjoyable, or can dominate them, destroy them, and keep them suffering indefinitely. Super powered humans wouldn’t have any trouble with even thousands of fluffies in either direction.

Fluffies don’t even have enough power to regulate what goes into or what comes out of them, let alone have agency over their lives. Without such power, fluffies are unable to affect the world on an individual level, which is the capacity needed for superhero stories. Fluffy stories don’t have world spanning scopes because the individual accomplishments of the fluffy or persons related to the story are so very small.

The reason industrial abuse is such a thing in this community is that the biggest impact possible comes only at the sheer volume of cruelty and indifference to such suffering. That quantity of maliciousness shows just how cruel we can be. Introducing super heroes into that does nothing for it. What’s The Fluffy Lantern going to do? Free all the pillowed fluffies? Beat up the foreman and wreck the factory? For what? There’s no gain at scale for fluffies, which is the point of the fluffy genre. Individuals might prosper and succeed, but as a species, they’re hopeless. They’re hopeless, and it’s terrible for them, forever.

It’s terrible and that’s what matters.

I think fluffy superheroes work well, because despite having superhuman powers, they’re still just fluffies. Faster than a speeding bullet but clumsier than a toddler. Strong like superman but afraid of Lex Luthor putting on a scary face. Powerful enough to move planets yet too dumb to think its way out of a cardboard box, and so on.

Enlisting the help of a fluffy superhero would be like releasing a runaway train at a problem - hoping against hope that it gets the job done before causing too much collateral damage and/or destroying itself in the process.
