You can REALLY tell when the biggest influence on a "cinephile's" taste profile is the opinions of others that they have internalized as objective fact. I.E "You aren't a serious person if you like x movie" "You have x movie in your top 4"
"Evangelion requires a 3 hour youtube essay just to understand the plot."
Every time I have a political conversation with my right-wing older sister she deadass sounds like this.
I think fridging is a lot like damseling. Neither are inherently misogynistic tropes, but both tropes are male centric and remove the agency of women in stories. And if most of the women in your story lack agency/revolve around men, it leaves a sour taste in the reader's mouth.
A persistent problem in arcane is that none of the main characters are ever just allowed to be bad people. Everybody needs a redemption arc or a sympathetic flashback or something to sanitize their actions. And in a show as short as arcane, this typically results in (1/2)
I also never understood the "realistic panic attack" criticism. Why is it a bad thing to depict mental health struggles realistically???

Yeah I don't think it's wise for Japanese niggas to run this gimmick:
a. The clip used in this post is from a Japanese show
b. Most of Japanese humor is literally just sexual assault(Which is must worse than excessive swearing).
In retrospect my favorite thing about this clip is how sneako is visibly afraid to fully lipsync "heil hitler" until everyone else starts singing it. The entire right wing is led by pussies.
