mobile suit gundam, one of the biggest franchises in the world, having its leading character not only be a girl, but a lesbian, and for her relationship with another girl be central to the plot, and for the series to end happily for them with them MARRIED after saving everyone with a gundam LITERALLY SHOOTING RAINBOWS at the end of pride month, when gay marriage isn’t even legal yet in japan, is a pretty big deal. and it’s a big deal that this series is SUPER popular, both in japan and internationally, and is selling merchandise at record breaking numbers. it’s a big deal. it’s a nice thing.
Bandai trying to lose all its fans by saying that suletta and miorines relationship is really only up to interpretation is so fucking stupid and yet hilariously dumb at the same time, like my brother in christ theres nothing to interpret, they have matching rings, eri calls herself miorines sister in law, they live together. And even before the epilogue they werent subtle, suletta fucking proposed to her and miorine told her to stay with her forever, she fucking said to prospera that they will be a family wether she likes it or not cause shes dead set on marrying suletta
Theres not one bit of subtleness about the relationship of these characters, they’re in love and married and the fact that bandai is shooting itself in the foot after such an explicitly sapphic relationship is comedically bad and appalling, stop trying to appeal to the dude bros of the fandom
