i'm actually mildly interested as to why this french film is supposedly a prequel to one of the zombi 4s, other than both being set in new guinea. it's not obvious from wikipedia at least

Wifetime is doing Under The Christmas Tree, which is a Christmas movie with two women.

I'd like to think it exists because of this.

The manga: "Alright, let's just tread carefully around this thing, subtly dropping hints without revealing too much."

The main character: "You're trans, aren't you?"

cis people are capable of knowing what trans issues are op

also i dont think the manga is saying they should tread carefully if they have characters openly acknowledge it

I've been really enjoying Liar Satsuki Can See Death lately. It's about a girl who can see corpses 24 hours before they actually appear, and uses this power to solve their death in advance and stop them.

I bring it up in here because Satsuki is extremely gay. It is not a main focus of the manga, but its very there and a big motivator for some of the things she does. And I really enjoy just having a casually lesbian protagonist who gets super blushy around her friends when they're nice to her, while also just being a good mystery thriller story alongside that.

I meant that the story has been tip-toeing around the whole thing, dropping hints, being subtle... Up until Sakuma just straight-up popped the question.

i was thinking of it more as a little bit of evidence towards those exact expectations beginning to change, although i definitely could've been less of a jackass about saying it

imo its fine to be surprise like this when stuff goes past your expectations and i totally get the feeling but i do think like when something positive like that happens to then put it around a negative frame isn't the best
