shout out to 'mixed nuts' playing in the convenience store and then later in the day walking past two guys talking about spy x family
#my god that anime is everywhere#spy x family#i apologise in advance im gonna ramble a bit in the tags#i really like it though dont get me wrong! just wild#pfinjapan#loid gets more attractive every episode welp#but i like yor less.... she's just hot waifu who's dumb but also a hot shot assassin and so physically strong without any explanation idk..#like she's kind of a psycho when it comes to her killing but sweet to everyone else and idk the 'teehee comes home covered as blood as a -#child- thing really didnt work for me i wish this anime contended with the things it presents a bit more seriously#and then her brother in the latest ep... yeah just over it#Like anya is cute and funny but this anime requires you to have a lot of suspension of disbelief to make the set up and comedy work#so it cant take itself too seriously - HOWEVER that's what prevents me from seeing any character other than loid as truly complex#so i cant get super attached#but its still an entertaining and enjoyable show... i dont dislike it#but i just dont think its a masterpiece#or that the characters are amazing or incredible... like the mark of a good character to me is how real they seem#pftagrants#side note: this isnt just a yor thing but a thing with 'cool' female characters in general - being super adept at beating up guys and/or-#killing them as women being presented as awesome/aspirational and badass is so annoying to me because it's a very male-centric form of-#-empowerment and is inapplicable to the vast majority of women in the real world... like what is that that our power fantasies is=#-something pretty much impossible#so we can't relate to these women and we're supposed toa dore them and aspire to be like them and yeah idk its just fucked imo#so id like at least an in universe explanation for why the character is able to be so physically strong rather than it just being -#- 'she's strong cuz women can eb stronger than men' that shit sets you up badly psychologically i feel#and thats why i love mulan like she learns to be physically strong by her own standards but she uses her wit and brain to outsmart and-#-defeat soldiers
