Yes
Most white US Americans are actually descendants of Germans. Look it up lol

Well, there's Grimm's fairytales but these guys heavily toned them down as they intended to write for children specifically.

The original stories are much more 'mature' as in cruel, fucked up and obviously without romanticism.

For example look up the original Sleeping Beauty story.
Here, the king who finds the sleeping princess doesn't kiss her to wake her up.
Instead he rapes her in her sleep, leaves her behind, she gives birth to twins while still asleep (the fairies taking care of the babies) and when one of the babies sucks on the princess's finger it removes the straw that had been keeping her asleep.
So , that girl woke up to 2 kids and didn't know what had happened to her.

Then there's a plot with the King's wife who somehow finds out that her husband had fathered kids with another woman.
She goes full jealousy mode and orders some servant or cook to kill the kids and feed them to her and the king.

So
The Cook doesn't do it tho and the jealous wife gets punished (and killed I think)

Then the king goes back to the princess, takes her and the twins with him and marries her.

The actually disturbing part about this story is how extremely misogynistic this whole story is.
The impregnation of the princess by the king is seen as a good thing for her. The story ends with a line that reads like "you see, sometimes luck arrives over night", referring to the rape as an opportunity that changed the princess's life for the better.

And ofc the old wife of the king is the stereotypical "evil, jealous woman who can't handle a younger woman's beauty" :seriously:
Is it at all disturbing to German kids when they hear "und wenn sie nicht gestorben sind, dann lieben sie noch heute"?

It's a little bleak to end fairy tales with that, no?

I hope leakers will just be honest with Carrot fate. Pot doesn't deserve to have his feelings toyed with!
Pot will go Sulong on Oda if he fucks Carrot fans over. Or even the rabbit from Montu Pythons Holy Grail.

Rabbits are much more vicious than a lot of people out there think and know too.

Un-amed saying "we all won, but not in the way we wanted" probably means "the others won, and I got a consolation prize". Consistent with Yamato joining and Carrot accepting rulership.
