MODERATORS
Yeah and he explicitly has zero interest in them sexually or romantically.
It's fucked up, yes, because it was supposed to be, but that isn't grooming.
Not a statement for or against your argument.
But grooming doesn't have to be sexual.
It is, frequently, but it's not a requirement.
For example, any of the trope recruiters that target children for military service in any of the bullshit nationalist wars (in anime of course, IRL military recruiters would never be so unethical)
Absolutely true and I don't disagree. However, in the context of the meme and the discussion it seemed to be the primary insinuation behind calling him as groomer which I think is completely incorrect.
However of course he groomed her into fighting, that much was very explicit. Just not as a predator.
