The Founder of Diabolism
TV Show • 2018 • Animation
ReportAs the grandmaster who founded the Demonic Sect, Wei Wuxian roamed the world in his wanton ways, hated by millions for the chaos he created. In the end, he was backstabbed by his dearest Shidi (meaning "junior fellow brother") and killed by powerful clans that combined to overpower him. He incarnates into the body of a lunatic who was abandoned by his clan and is later, unwillingly, taken away by a famous cultivator among the clans—Lan Wangji, his former classmate.

The main character dies off screen, but comes back. Another character who resurrects him sacrifices himself.

A main character is often called a lunatic or crazy or mad, and purposefully acts in a stereotypical way to further that assumption for plot reasons.

It is threatened in season 1 but averted. In season 3 it is discussed as having actually happened, but nothing sexual is shown on-screen except for a man tied up.

It is implied. There is a scene showing a man tied up without a shirt on laying in bed in front of a group of sex workers who are told to have sex with him. The act is not shown, but it is discussed. He then dies of overexertion.

A man is tied to a bedpost and forced to have sex. So, kind of, non-consensually.

A male character is called "little miss" to make fun of him, but no trans person is misgendered.
