@cheerylowcomet She gets in a high speed car chase in the movie. Also while it's subtle she's absolutely enjoying herself when the duelists and her enemies fumble in particularly spectacular ways. And when her pets harrass nanami. The world tries to keep her down but she stays silly
@geekaggression @SamtheNightOwl I had to get 1 as an adult for adhd and that use in particular highlights how it really is just a measure of a couple skillsets instead of intelligence. Like, my processing iq is a 90 but my memory is a 120 & while those help u seem smart, actual smarts is more complex
@sumiremybeloved I really don't like it for the way it usually just feels like smashing 2 ken dolls together regardless of how 1 feels abt it, but idk why any1 wouldn't just mute the ship and move on. It's not that serious lol
@GutzGyaru@ShoujoCent Wait, so they don't just say androids are born w/ adult minds like basically every other sci fi? Like that's actually a 10yo by human measures?
@misteryurifag Yeah yoshida could def be gay as hell but smth abt denji makes yoshiden feel like shipping a lesbian w/ a man to me. Not in like, a calling ppl problematic for it way, just in the basic misunderstanding way. If denji can like men it's gonna take way more therapy to get there
@EttiSpygh As a woman lover who almost exclusively likes female characters the amt of ppl who think my kind should like jjk is laughable. I don't doubt that it's great for it's target audience, but it's not the woman loving battle shounen. That's csm
@tfwPhoebe Tbh it's more realistic that way. Anger doesn't make you stronger, it makes you lose inhibitions which makes you hit harder but make dumber choices and hurt urself more. If u weren't already gonna curbstomp rage just makes u fail worse
@Faerynnistired I get the nagging feeling that, intentionally or not, israel exists so that we can put billions into weapon manufacturers and imperialism. Then, if/when public opinion turns the US can scapegoat jews for the evils of capitalism and all the countries funding it
@ohtori_nu It's lesbians, it's anime, it's interpretable enough any plaguarized interpretation is even more recognizable. It's everything he hates, so whhhhhy
@girlcel_ Idk their iq but ik some of my parent's friends are super smart engineer types, the kind of people who can genuinely make high explosives in their garage np but don't bc drones are more fun. And they were all gay, socialist, nudist, polyamorous, etc back in the 70s and 80s
@Faerynnistired Like oh, so it's "male gaze" of me to read self insert yuri porn manga? How abt your fandom where girl characters outnumber boys 10 fold but all the fic and fandom is abt the same 2 boys with 10 minutes of screentime and no compelling canon narrative
@Faerynnistired It's funny how yuri gets called male gaze so much but yaoi goggles are genuinely an extreme level of male gaze. Plus even the male yuri authors r writing yuri inspired by queer authors from the perspective of women, any male gaze they'd add is watered down by decades of lesbians
@burgeroise Would be cool as a silent hill type monster and still be hot for anyone who actually would be into it, but when it's meant to be hot it feels dissonant
@PhillipLitost @gabeatethesoap Not particularly, if you understand that misogyny exists utena kinda just tells you how patriarchy exists outside individual incidents. The black rose arc is incomprehensible w/o high analytical skills so that's meh. Appreciating it needs more, but it's fun either way
@SwarmOfStars He's obviously doing a one liner and failing miserably lol. Decides to save her and is like "what can i say to seem cool and unbothered" then flunks it. Real "I'm here to chew ass and kick bubblegum" vibes
