#i cant stress enough that this isnt even every instance of him crying. don cries more than almost any character in the series

ash asked me to elaborate on this so i'll take it as an excuse to rant but basically theres a line from don in s2 that directly translates to 'don't cry, rossi. boys don't cry.' which is not only fucking gross on its own and even worse given that he's speaking to a terrified five year-old in this scene, but they literally could not have chosen a more baffling character to say that if they tried. here's a little collection of don panels from the manga for no reason in particular

#skye's ramblings #BECAUSE GOD FORBID WE LET THE BROWN BOY BE EMOTIONALLY VULNERABLE AM I RIGHT FELLAS #this line is changed in the dub thank god but the fact that they even had him say it at all is so gross. he would not fucking say that #i cant stress enough that this isnt even every instance of him crying. don cries more than almost any character in the series #the only characters that might beat him are emma and gilda. don cries more than any other boy and he always does it without any shame #s2 really said how much racism can we fit in one shitty adaptation and then really pushed themselves above and beyond #don sweetie im so sorry an ugly bitch like that would even make you say that. im sorry
