>>56356953Greed is a moral term. Not really relevant. Greed is not good or bad, it just is. Literally all profit making corporations are "greedy", including GF. The market is the market, adapt or die. And how am I a tool for pointing out that one simply has to outcompete the industry? Or go underground and accept the fact that it's not going to be popular anymore. Your choice.
>that 10 year old girls across every cultural background, wouldn't want to be able to dress in pretty bows and skirts in a game about their magical creature friends.Lol, you said here "it's a thinly vailed attempted to make this into a culture war" when I talked about masculinity and now you are going on about literal female identity politics. I agree with your point that it "should" be a thing, I like old shoujo myself but don't you see how you are doing the same thing in a way? Everything needs to as inclusive as possible. Therefore genderlessness is better than feminity because itis less risky/more inclusive. Look up DEI, Pokemon is into that too.
Anyways, although I would love to hear more of your opinions on shoujo/anime in general this is a Ken Sugimori thread. We could continue in a different thread on /a/ if you want because I like this conversation. Meanwhile I will post some old style Sugimori women.
