Low-key Scared For What The Fandom's Gonna Look Like After Higuruma And Hakari Are Animated

Yeah, and his female characters are some of the best in shonen jump in my opinion. The mothers aren't treated as just mothers. They're allowed to have personality and backstory. Otohime, Portgas D. Rouge and Bellemere are examples of this.

As much as I love JJK, Megumi's mom doesn't have anything to her character besides being the person who just so happened to give birth to Megumi and I think this lack of confidence in writing women is reflected in how much there is to be desired with his other female characters.

Likewise, as flawed as Naruto is with its female characters Kushina IS allowed to have a personality and be more than just a wife and a mother.

There's obviously nothing wrong with having a female character that's tied to motherhood and is nurturing but when that character isn't even given a name in the text of the story and isn't able to be seen as anything but a mother what exactly are we supposed to take away from that?

I feel like you can tell a lot about how an author views their female characters based on whether or not they give dead mothers a name.

Absolutely. Momo even uses the same kick on the aliens that she used on her boyfriend when he tried to get forceful with her. It doesn't matter if you're a stranger or someone's partner you're the same type of bad person if you try to do something without their consent.

I think a lot of people are used to SA scenes overly emphasizing the victim's powerlessness so DanDaDan's portrayal of it might seem like it's too lighthearted in comparison but I don't think that was the intention at all.

Watched episode 4 of DanDaDan today and there's something about Turbo Granny caring for the souls of those poor deceased girls while Momo uses what she learned from her grandmother to help save herself from the alien freaks in the first episode.

Chewing and gnawing on the irony One Piece continually shows with the main characters where they're doing objectively kind and helpful things and that's what gets them in trouble with the law. It's the selective application of criminal justice. The bias and room for corruption built into the system itself. It's delicious. It's horribly relevant. I'm obsessed.

I know for a fact his first meeting with Gojo had Geto wanting to punch that MF in the throat I can feel it.

Matching pfps for you and the homie

Choose your fighter

Ship names that are a phrase relating to the ship in some way (Ex. ShadowPeach, MatchaBlossom, Boyf Riends)

Ship names that are just the character's names mashed together (Ex. NaruSasu, KilluGon, ZhongChi)

Whatever the Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh fandom got going on (Ex. RivalShipping, KingCrabShipping, SpiritShipping)

I wonder if Megumi would wake up late at night to use the bathroom and hear light sobs coming from Gojo's room.
