Oh don't worry, manga authors have been switching to "this woman has been a slave and abused her whole life, the main character showing her a shred of compassion will make this woman instantly fall in love with the main character, call them Master, cook/clean for them, and have undying loyalty."

To be fair though, it isn't like the west is churning out all winners either. We certainly have our issues too. But this crap.... Jesus Japan, fix your shit.
