Sapphics wondering where the fuck our shows have gone:

WLW Shows/Fans Taking HITS
Willow = canceled (sorta? now debatable)
Warrior Nun = canceled
Batwoman = canceled
Legends of Tomorrow = canceled
Charmed = canceled
Legacies = canceled
First Kill = canceled
The Wilds = canceled
Gentleman Jack = canceled
A League of Their Own = reduced/canceled
Killing Eve = BYG trope

And more... just over the last year or two. And some of these had solid ratings, mind you. Topped the charts of their streamers/networks, even.
"LEAD SAPPHICS/WLW = 🚫" - TV Execs/Hollywood
This. Is. Not. Okay.

Toga’s Love/Quirk Theory;
‘I love Tomura-kun and Touya-kun too, but their quirks won’t come out like Jin-kun’s or Ochako-chan’s. I also tried it before this battle...and they wouldn’t come out! Even though I love him... Even though I can become someone I ‘love’... Even though Jin-kun could make them come out... ‘
Translations made in here by @pikahlua.
Recently in chapter 382, we see Toga’s unable to become people she loves (Tomura and Dabi), despite the fact that she became Ochaco and Jin and used their quirks and i would argue that problem is not that she didnt love them enough. (This scene also remind me of the time La Brava gets depressed when her love quirk isnt powerfull enough and she questions her love, kinda parallels.)
But i dont think thats the case. Not after Shigaraki became the first person who believed in her, gave a place she belong to her and everything he did for her and not after Dabi and Toga recently connected through Jin’s death and we even get a official art of him imitating Dabi, more details in here.
I believe in you, Toga, that your love for them is geniue too.
So what’s the problem?
I think its no coincidence that the people whom she couldnt use their quirks happenned to be Shigaraki and Dabi. Suicidal brats who is full of hatred and have personal agenda in league the most, unlike Toga who wants to live, even if its her own way and she is living for love.
Toga cant fully become them because she cant understand them. She doesnt understand whats going on their head. She cant relate to their hatred and she doesnt understand their thoughts.
Compared to this;
Uraraka is Toga’s foil. She is someone who is just like Toga. This is exactly why Toga ran away to talk with her. Because they are similar. Their feelings, the way they tried to shut their feelings down because Toga did the same in the past, the good girls who repress their needs and they both want to become their crushes. This is why Toga thought if its Ochaco, then she can understand her and they could talk about love.
In Jin’s case, he is Toga’s bestie and someone she cares as big brother. They have many similarities, they both live for the connections. They both felt lonely. They both were abandonded by society and they wanted to live easier life. They saw league as home and they wanted to do their best to help people they care about.
Basically, Toga can understand their inner thoughts and relate to their inner feelings. I dont blame Toga for this really. Shigaraki and Dabi are too complicated to understand, especially if you dont know their story and inner thoughts. And they dont even talk about their past to connect with league so it makes sense why Toga cant use their quirks.
Well, you could say Toga cant become them because she doesnt want to become them? But i kinda disagree with that. There is a theory made in here by me and several people already mentioned that Toga is imitating Shigaraki and she seems to wanting to be more like him. I would even argue that when she says ‘Even though I love him... Even though I can become someone I ‘love’’, she is talking about Shigaraki.
‘I loved people’s happy faces. That’s why, for that girl, I won’t turn a blind eye to her tears.‘
Toga is a character who geniuely want to connect with people she care about but key point of love is understanding the person you love. I guess it happens to be good time to talk about love. And last panel with Uraraka and Toga is parallel with Deku’s last panel with Shigaraki, that they wont turn a blind eye to crying face, even though they are villains, they want to save them. So good luck, Toga and Ochaco.

#SixFanarts challenge made up of characters suggested by my fans on Instagram! It's always gratifying to draw characters I might not usually draw (and I don't even mind how many wanted to see DC characters), so it's nice to stretch my legs and do a fun piece like this between larger projects. That said, larger projects on the way lol and thank you for your continued support 😊

I'm so angry that Willow has been canceled and we're just barely getting scraps for ALOTO, but even more than angry, I'm just so tired-- i know streaming is awful in general for art, but the specific targeted cancellations of sapphic shows again and again is just so fucking exhausting
Fans deserve better, creators deserve better, wlw deserve better-- our stories matter regardless of what any network has to say about it
Edit: We've since that the reporting about Willow was clickbaity and in reality the show is going on a hiatus, not being canceled altogether. I'm really glad about that, but even so, I think given the overall trend of canceling sapphic shows, my point still stands
Edit again: Disney's removing Willow from Disney+ entirely because it's not enough to be cancelling our representation, the trend now is to erase us entirely so they can screw over writers by not paying them residuals, so, in summation: fuck Disney and every other streaming service
