I agree with this. People saying that rape is "overused" or not original is just full of crap and are people who don't like certain themes occurring in their form of entertainment. That is understandable, but using "overused" to describe something? REALLY?

Some guy listed down around 120+ anime titles that were released in 2012 alone (the year isn't even over yet), and only 5 or 6 discussed anything close to rape. If it's overused, we should have so many rape in anime.

There are so many stories out there, and I would suggest that if ANYONE actually listed them up, it would show that rape is so unused in manga or light novels or anime, people claiming overuse would have to use another word to sound their displeasure.

It's like authors are not allowed to tell their stories anymore. While you may not agree with how they tell their stories, saying "x is a crap author just because he had a rape story" is complete bull. They would be crap authors if they couldn't follow up with what they've done or if they sucked beforehand. Not if they just put in an event for their story. That's just asinine, asiten, asitwelve.
