I feel like at one point Oda was reasonably tame, then at some point he married a model and he's been alarmingly horny ever since.

Kobeni gets the worst of it in a sense. None of the other women have to have a job anymore.

Power was always infantile. Her character is partly based on Eric Cartman.

Drawing your fantasy woman and then marrying a model that dressed up as her is a powerful move.

Is it the tv show or the movie?

The movie is a weird case because Streamline actually got decent actors imo but didn't even bother with a real translation of the script so it's just a bizarre mess of poo poo they just made up

The TV series was handled better but they did that annoying rear end 90s thing where they replaced the music with some drum and bass soundtrack that is just a cacophony of thumps and poo poo and is terrible, and, while the original mono recordings have bad quality, the original soundtrack is extremely good for the most part

E: I guess to clarify in an :actually: way, I'm aware it wasn't originally mono and aired in stereo, it's just Toei's own garbage methods of archiving its shows

I'd kill for a full dub of the original series if only to grant it more exposure but I don't see it ever getting more attention unless there is a remake down the line

I still find it bizarre that they brought over the New Fist of the North Star OVA series but never bothered with the series of movies that came out in mid-to-late 2000s

"The Man Who Cannot Deadlift"

Chainsaw Man's female characters are pretty much universally cool and tend to be well-developed with their own arcs, plots, desires, and fuckups. Even Kobeni who is seemingly specifically targeted by the universe to never catch a break is a total badass for her endless determination

What are you talking about? The first thing she wants to do is quit. Kobeni is cool because she hates her jobs and resents her family, like the rest of us.

I mean her determination to survive, lol. Her immediately realizing that she’s in over her head, dipping, and then still constantly finding herself in life-or-death situations which she powers through anyway is great. Also she has a cool car and lets Power show off her incredible driving skills

Bleach contains GOAT Yoruichi, which more than offsets poo poo characters like Orihime, Nel, and Nanao.

That's not too dissimilar to how many black people viewed Japan before & during WW2. Funny how many historical parallels AoT can draw both in-universe and in real life. I wonder how they feel now that Eren is trying to murder everyone in the world outside of Paradis.

The power of being the POV character is just too much for people to handle. It's a credit to the story that Eren was portrayed as an unhinged psycho from the start, who only really goes off the deep end because his fate was locked in by his future self. Armin & Mikasa were also main POV characters, but I guess their feelings don't matter that much.
