because characters like Ryuko are written with the intention of being a genuine character while a lot of female characters are written simply to be "strong" and invoke one or two "You go girl!" from the audience.

Putting effort into a character goes a long way.

Because they write males, then give them tits and ass

James Cameron begs to differ

But Ryuko is le strong independent womyn who gets shit done character to a T. You just like her because she's an anime.

>japanese strong female characters

they're ALWAYS 15-20 year old girls

Because you're a child of Sup Forumseddit

>weeb garbage
>good writing

Characters in anime are always one dimensional you disgusting weeb

What's your point?

They aren't.

Mmem La Meme is ultra shit
DUDE TITS LMAO

see Ryuko is "action anime with a girl protagonist". Western media misses the point and makes "girl show with action". Trigger was not afraid to make Ryuko have flaws and struggles, because watching her progression feels good. Western media is afraid to give their female characters and flaws which removes any real intrigue and leaves you with tepid oatmeal.

>Ryuko
>male with tits
What?

What's age got to do with it bruv?

Probably because the only pandering Japan knows is making them cute and/or sexy. They don't really care about the character's political appeal.

The character of Ryuuko is not defined by their sex, it could have just as easily been a male and the character would be the same, except for the "female coming of age / puberty" analogy

...

because feminism doesn't create strong women it creates victims and they wont allow their characters to have flaws or weaknesses

>reddit la reddit
Up up upvote reddit style!

>crossed bare legs

wew lad

The fact that the series could have had a male protagonist doesn't change the fact that Ryuko acts and talks like a girl.

So if Japan is so good at writing strong female characters, why are they all fucking cartoons?

>Ryuko acts and talks like a girl.

Watch more tokku nigger faggot.

budget.

plus animation is more suitable to their ideas and character designs.

t. GoT posters

>he thinks low IQ trash like this and got aren't on the same level
oh mY GOD

>he actually is a GoT fan
LOL

?

>he doesn't understand posting language
HAHAHAH
FUCKING Sup Forums

>literally posting something from the end credits of the final episode
>implying males cant have fun with friends

That's some superb lack of reading comprehension weeb.

What did she mean by this?

/thread
anime fags BTFO

She learned how to become more of a normal girl because of Mako.

It's part of her character arc.

She wanted to hate fuck Nui, it was a metaphor for her pump and dumping her

>i shill for reddit sensibilities is a Sup Forums pleb
EL

The major could literally be a man in a womans body.

Whenever a thread is prefaced with "why is Japan better at x" then you know it's the work of an underage Sup Forumsermin.

She is still canonically a woman

It's canonically an android body with a human brain.

>you can't be a girl unless you're putting on makeup and reading Cosmo
You are more sexist than any anime.

She found Nui physically attractive, but hated her for her personality (and the fact that she killed her father on her mother's orders).

When she was brainwashed, she stopped giving a shit.

>She found Nui physically attractive
Nice headcanon.

That sounds fucking terrible.

Because they embrace there sexuality and are empowered by it

because it's fan-fiction

>giving a female body to a male brain
>spending a fuckton of resources on an unstable degenerate

I find this unlikely, familia.

What the fuck are you talking about? Ryoku was a Mary Sue who's suit could literally adapt to any situation and fuck over her opponents.

Also she was pretty much beating the shit out of everyone before she even got her scissor sword and uniform

Yes, anime is fan fiction tier.

This funny, I can't recall a show that has a man having his period for a few episodes halfway through it.

Because you're a goobergater.

>fap-bait
>good writing

anime is literally just a bunch of cliches thrown together

most of it, not all.

she lost most of her battles and struggled a lot, so no.

I find then idea that a living brain without a body could be found after a plane crash, yet there's the canon.

>cliches thrown together cant be good or well made

You're arguing about one that seems to boil down to magical leasbians. Who fight because dead parents. Sounds great.

>good or well made
kill la kill is neither good nor well-made, its trash

>fap-bait
>he fell for the pleb-filter

bravo

>Mary Sue
>loses her way constantly and has to be saved by Mako every time
And before she got the uniform she couldn't even beat the boxer guy, the fuck are you talking about?

anime is supposed to larger-than-life and over-the-top and rediculous.

what you're doing is like criticizing a James Bond movie for not being 100% realistic.

Because they don't draw attention to the fact that they're women. Same with gays, the best gay characters are from Japan because they just happen to be fags.

Riveting opinion comrade

>pretending the anime has anything else going for it
I watched it because shitposting in Sup Forums threads was funny, but its garbage that kept droping entire plot lines and character arcs, what was the point of nudist beach? being jobbers? the motorcycle big guy - another jobber, the guy who carved his eyes out seemed like he would get a proper developement but pretty much nothing happened and he just jobbed with the rest of his merry band of faggots

Not the writer's fault that Japs refuse to consume media with adults in it. Just look at games like 999 or Final Fantasy 12 that had to age down and change their protagonists respectively so that people would buy it.

Because they don't give a fuck about feminism

Because they write with no leftist social agendas

Because they want to a story without having to push a "girl power" narrative

No, because Bond tends to have fun engaging caharcters within the scope of its narrative framework.

Anime is an entire genre of teenaged fan fiction, low tier porn and cliche riddled plots whose primary function is to sell more manga by padding shit out.

>3rd wave feminism

FTFY. I really wish that modern feminism went by a different name since it's so different from the first two.

>we want to be seen as people too
Ok, got it
>we want equal rights
Alright, here you go
>everything is men's fault, we're all special snowflake goddesses
Wait, what?

>It's a gook cartoon
I too enjoy watching a TV show that runs at 3 FPS.

It was a stupid assumption by marketing execs.

Final Fantasy VII is their most acclaimed game, yet everyone except Yuffie is of drinking age.

BUT marketing execs think they know better than creators nd the end cutomers, so they rape original ideas to engage in demographics pandering believing young people won't buy a game unless the primary characters are their age group so they can "relate."

Nudist Beach literally created Senketsu and the sword scissors, as well as all the tech they use in the second half, were you paying attention?
And Sanageyama kept fighting until the end and had the ending of his arc in the OVA.

>men with tits are okay as long as they are animated and throw out tons of fanservice

>I watched it because shitposting in Sup Forums

back to and take your garbage taste with you, at least you'll be among people with similar taste there.

>Needed an OVA to fix his arc
>Sword Scissors
This continues to sound utterly retarded.

I don't mind it with the Zero Escape series since it fit with the backstory to have most of them between 18 and 25, but FF12 was actually made worse due to the protagonist changing (which happened twice btw, Basch -> Balthier -> Vaan) by making the already slow first act even slower.

Based

>board tribalism

The OVA is the last episode of the series, there's no "fixing".
And why are you even commenting soething you didn't watch?

If eve notice the fanservice after 3 episodes, the problem is with you, not the show

Its so in your face right from the start that you become numb to it, unless you're a degenerate pervert with no life

James Bond was male-fantasy trash meant to appeal to teenagers.

The teenaged just happened to grow up.

It's no different from anime.

Is it an OVA or an episode?
It can't be both.

I'm commenting because it sounds retarded, didn't I mention?

You sound like a fucking retard, James Bond is just as "trash" as anime according to your own statements

It's not needed but it provides more closure.

>It's no different from anime.

Anime never grew up, especially the one that's appealing to crossposters

I find funny how much publicity they are giving to the new famale Ghostbusters because they have an all female cast when japs have been doing the "group of girls fighting evil" since the 70's.

In what world?

James Bond was written by an old Brit dreaming of 'muh empire' days and self insert Gary Stu delusional power fantasy of British Intelligence even mattering in the Cold War.

OVA is just an episode released directly to home video, nothing out of the ordinary.

is that gif supposed to be impressive?

put your name back on you Sup Forums cancer

And they also had transgendered characters before they were cool.

> Reminder that weebs will unironically defend this softcore hentai trash.

Its not an episode then.
Its an addendum that is charged extra for.
Imn this case a literal arc left unfinished.

Fucking ridiculous weeb delusional fuck.

Yawn.

I think its supposed to be a little girls anime called Pretty Cure.

Gundam had a few strong women. Only sane Zeta character here.

Its cool

That looks so fucking generic.

?

Emma must have been an incident, Tomino was in one of his women hating phases and all the others females were utterly terrible.

Japan: "She's a girl, but she's STRONG."
Progressives: "She's a girl, so she's STRONG."
