gotta get that chuddie cash flowing in somehow 🤑🤑🤑🫰🫰🫰

even if it means making an obvious fact (that being suletta and miorine being into each other deeply to the point of marriage) "open to interpretation"

it's so dumb... the show went so far past that point that chuds were openly complaining about Gundam going woke (HA!), I don't see any reason to walk anything back and alienate the new audience. Just as well to get reminded that corporations are never our friends

Gundam always has been a "woke" franchise, wth were they smoking lmfao. Reminds me of yesterday's comment about chuddies ~~colonizing~~ invading already existing fanbases and trying to fuck it up.

I don’t see any reason to walk anything back and alienate the new audience.

"Yeah but you see, these chuddie fucks make up the majority of the anime fanbase; and we still live under capitalism, and so if we don't appeal to these chuddie losers we're never gonna make bank 🤑🤑🤑🫰🫰🫰" --Bamco, maybe

“The very first fans of the original Gundam were young women. Definitely not the Plastic Model enthusiasts. With both Gundam and Raideen, of the first fans to be active, 90% were girls. Among a gathering of 1000 fans, about 100 were boys. Around when the first cour ended, young women began to gather to the after recording studio. It took until much later for male fans make an uproar, around the time series got canceled. I thought: You’re late to the party!”

Tomino quote lol

what was even there to make an uproar about, that "girls are invading their "beloved franchise""? lmao why are some men so fucking fragile

I think in this context it was concerning the original show being cancelled. But yeah, the boys were late for the party and only got into it for the stupid toys and the movies (the toys are kinda cool though...).

I think Star Trek had a similar predominantly female fan base at the start, too.

My partner every episode: WHEN WILL THEY FUCKIN KISS.

The studio are cowards for not actually letting them kiss

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

G-Witch ending spoilerAt least they get married in the end, which is a sadly rare W for anime lesbians

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

True and it was adorable and it made us very happy but. Still so cowardly.

[-] CriticalOtaku@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

I think it's becoming clearer as time goes on that the people making the show and the people financing the show had different ideas...
