Mte.

There's only two characters of color and only like four fat characters. Is it fat acceptance because the show doesn't make a big deal of their weight? Is it pandering to have two dark-skinned characters? I don't get those complaints. There's still plenty of white character and the main character is white.

There is a bit of diversity among the background characters (like in the episode about the African family playing volleyball with the Gems), but among the main-ranked characters (the gems+Steven), there's two (three if you count Rose) white characters and two POC. And a lion.

Flipping out about SJWs taking over the media because this show exists is like otaku flipping out about fujoshi taking over the anime industry because Free! exists.

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about the pizza place owner and his family. I was mostly talking about main characters and the side characters who work at that donut place as well as at Frybo's.wait, Rose could be counted? She is white in that photo iirc.

But yeah, I get it. Just because there's one show with a bit if diversity, it totally means sjws are taking over. If sjws had anything to do with this show, it would be way more preachy imo.

Well, considering that to some of the anons replying to this secret, having to acknowledge that POC exist is apparently "preachy"...

Perfect comparison

"only like four fat characters"

I wonder if you realize what you're saying.

(Anonymous) 2014-06-15 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah? Only two of them are main characters. The rest of the fat characters are side characters.
