I give Digi credit for championing some underappreciated anime though
he made a really good video about why Kemono Friends is actually good and not just a meme
Bechdel test is a joke in anime. tons of it doesn't even pass reverse bechdel test.
GL doesn't pass, is good
KLK does pass, is inferior
When I was a kid, I liked Cardcaptors the best
really the Bechdel test just goes to show that Western media is shitty at creating interesting female characters
My favorite anime is Kaiba. One of the most interesting cyberpunk worlds
Kaiba is good
now that I think of it I'm gonna go with <:AriaCompany:431523701238923274> as my top anime
it's just 💯
Western media aims for equality: every character is now a shittily written character
The west is not even that good at making gay girls in cartoons.
every female character is just a tough hyper-competent girl power mascot
I just like pointing out the Bechdel test in stuff like Kill la Kill because it's a good way of exposing feminists as puritans. You show them KLK and they'll reflexively reject it as sexist trash, but it's all strong well-written female characters.
lots of feminists do like that about anime though
Just watch youjo senki
if you ever feel brave go check out the articles on www.animefeminist.com
😏
Because with lesbians they have to toe the line to avoid claims if fetishising
Sorry heart, I am not a masochist
someone wrote an article about how Made in Abyss wasn't progressive enough because Riko is good at cooking and is female
Youjo Senki is technically a dude though.
its called getting rid of millenials internet
Youjo senki is a trans character mc
meanwhile that series has two invincible she-warriors, a boy who is incompetent and needs a girl to tell him everything that he does, an a-gender character and an actual transgender child character
<:GWfroggyPepoSmug:398570232647647242>
and yet it's not progressive enough
Like I said before: Everyone needs to watch the first episode of Vandread
@Austin i like your idea, plz can you elaborate more
less toxic twitter, more mail-order wives
Kill la Kill is Gurren Lagann with Lavos.
I need to check kaiba out
Lavos made clothes instead of magic this time.
heh
Lavos was in Chrono Trigger
that fucking left pod
Fucking pods
I would say another tactic is indoctrinating the schoolchildren into thinking "if you dont have two children in your life you are a parasite on society" @Deleted User
id say pump that number to 4
