An internet hoax to gatekeep anime from fake weebs. RotD was made by a creator after they were sick of people lying about watching anime, so they asked the internet to act like this anime was real and if someone said they had ACTUALLY watched it, they were lying since it's not real. It is said that the last episode was traumatic to say the least
Real Weeb: have you watched Raikou of the Dragons?
Fake weeb: Oh yeah, often usually it's my favourite! >w<
Real Weeb: what do you mean? Its not real
