Disney Princesses vs Females in Anime – The Problem with Damsel in Distress

April 20, 2013 by Chikorita157 9 Comments

Artist: mi-ra

Last weekend, I have watched Nostalgia Critic’s video on the princess hate. After watching it, I think he has a point since this trope exists in all types of media. The problem lies with Damsel in distress, which became a negative stereotype for females because it’s over usage. In particular, Disney Princesses tend to play this trope a lot, which is a bad representation of how women are portrayed in real life.

In Anime, it’s the opposite most of the time since some female characters take a bigger role. This is the main difference compared to Disney Princesses. (Image Source)

These are the last episodes of Shining Hearts ~Shiawase no Pan~ and Mouretsu Pirates. Instead of writing two separate posts, I’ll just share my brief thoughts about these episodes and my overall impressions about each one. (Image Source)

Winter 2012 Anime Midseason Impressions

February 15, 2012 by Chikorita157 2 Comments

If you notice the lack of weekly Anime Digests, it’s mostly because I didn’t have much to say for the past two weeks. Therefore, I’m won’t be doing them until the spring season. For now, the focus is now on the midseason impressions for the current season.

Compared to last year, this year has been pretty underwhelming season considering that we had two great shows (Madoka Magica and Hourou Musuko), which you may already have fresh in your mind. Nevertheless, I managed to find shows that entertained me for the season, so it’s not that big of a deal. (Image Source)
