Spooked by Shame

Image
    To this day I will never forgive Disney for canceling The Owl House!  This was one of the BEST cartoons they have ever produced, it was a good mixture of dark and funny; then again it is labeled as horror comedy so there's that!  But aside from that rant, there's one particular character I want to focus on, and that is Luz Noceda, the main character.  In episode 1, it is well established that Luz is...well different!  I mean she reinacts a scene from Romeo and Juliet with fake guts, stitches a bunch of animal parts to make a Griffin, and did a book report with live snakes that got loose in the school!  So yeah she is absolutely different!  But here's the kicker, her mom feels that she needs a reality check and sends her to a summer camp where the motto is "Think inside the box".  It is quite obvious that Luz is treated poorly for being herself.  I get that she might have went a little extreme on some things, but her mom sends he...

That weird yet beautiful body!

      Grand Theft Auto 5 is an extremely wild game!  I mean over the years the franchise tends to push the boundaries on how far it can and will go.  This is a game where you can have sex with a prostitute, can kill her, then take the money, hop in your bat-mobile or military jet, and proceed to buy fried chicken.......I'm not making any of this stuff up!!!!!  This a game where you can drive around in a hover bike and save the world from an A.I program all while running around wearing underwear and a chicken mask!  Yet despite its weird and random entertainment, this game can have moments of well body positivity believe it or not.  Especially with a character who is just.....well, let me explain.        In the game there are 3 character's to play as, but one we need to talk about is Trevor Philips; a hillbilly redneck drug dealer and menace to society......and that is putting it lightly!  This man has done some VERY ...

The Ultimate Trump card (No pun intended), Survive!

Image
      I can honestly say that I am a huge fan of Tokusatsu!  If you don't know what that is, it's using tons of special effects in a T.V show or movie, but with a well written story!  Like imagine a Michael Bay movie but it actually has a good plot!  With that being said there's a particular Japanese Super Hero called Kamen Rider; a motorcycle riding super hero!  There is one specific Kamen Rider series called Kamen Rider Ryuki, in it Kamen Riders Ryuki and Knight unlock a new form to help them defeat a powerful enemy, this form is called Survive.  With it they unlock new abilities and gear that gives them the strength to stand against anyone who stands in their way.  Plus I won't lie, it does look pretty cool when Ryuki goes into that form!     Take a good look at this cause we now need to talk about a certain event that recently transpired and trust me, this will not be fun.          Tuesday...

Transphobia is literal brain rot!

    Tell me, have you ever watched an anime called Code Geass?  It's an incredible anime, that features mental games, mecha fights and colonialism....sponsored by Pizza hut (seriously, they really do sponsor this anime)!  This anime was extremely well written to the point where years later it can still be referenced by other anime fans, and its popularity lead to a movie being made 13 years after this series ended; that's a big deal!  Yet one of the key aspects of this series, are the characters, because many of them have different motivations as to why they do what they do.  What gets crazy, is when some characters use their special powers and abilities to control or manipulate certain people or alter reality!  Like I said the characters really move the story entirely, but there is one character I want to talk about.     This is Nina Einstein, she was a student at Ashford Academy, then later became a scientist.  Looking at her...

Purity culture and its Impurity

Image
          I have been watching anime since 1998, and I can honestly say that as a hardcore anime fan, this shit can get weird...like REALLY weird at times!  Take the 1998 OVA "Virgin Fleet", it is a series about these women who pilot fighter jets, but get this, they have a special power that allows them to pilot the jets!  Can you guess what that power is?  It's being a virgin; this anime says that women who are virgins have the ability to access great powers.  Now, I can go on a massively long rant about what does it mean to be a virgin and how penetrative sex is not the only kind of sex in the world......but that's a different argument!  Instead I want to talk about this whole purity thing and how it can cause more harm than good.          Throughout my entire life, I have went to religious schools, but by the time I got into junior high school, that's when the purity culture came into effect.  W...

The Sexual(and soceital) Rebellion!

Image
          I don't know about you all but I am pretty excited and pumped for the remake of Ranma 1/2 coming out in October!  I mean this anime/manga series has an amazing story that must be shared with EVERYONE!  Now if you are familiar with this series you know the story, but lets say you have zero idea of what Ranma 1/2 is even about, allow me to explain!  You see that guy with the black hair?  That's Ranma Saotome, he is a skilled martial artist who is constantly pushing himself.  One day him and his father were doing some extreme training near cursed pools of water because why not!  Ranma gets knocked into a pool of water and is cursed, as a result anytime he is splashed with cold water, he becomes a woman(the one with the red hair), but if he is splashed with hot water he becomes a man again.        Yet despite the hilarity that comes with this series, even though Ranma will look like a woman, ...
