7. I love the graphics on this so much I almost want to watch Evangelion.
10. My favorite TV character is a lying, murdering, drug-dealing thief, and I am so hot for him--and it's more for his personality than anything. :(
17. I don't know either of those fandoms, but I call "let's mess with fandom" shenanigans on this. It'd take a lot more than one international copyright lawyer to secure all the red tape needed to do that, and you have to know that.
But on the off chance it's real, hey, go for it.
26. I'm not sure I even feel like commenting on this, but I guess I do have some stuff to say. Some of it's a valid point. I think a full-on Yamato Nadeshiko (submissive, existing only to serve the higher power of men) is inherently a more degrading stereotype than a full-on tsundere (fierce and take-action despite being confused about her emotions and inclined to wind up turning to goo around a man eventually), but both can be very irritating and degrading when used badly.
I will note that I'm sick of dismissing entire 'categories' of female characters wholesale just because society's ever-present sexism forces nearly all of them into tighter molds and worse cliches than the males. It seems like a more sensible, productive, and feminist (in the sense of "positive about femininity and women") reaction would be to find the good in those characters when possible and reclaim them by seeking out their development as characters independent from men. And yes, I know, not everyone is necessarily going to want to do that, but it would be nice if more would consider it.
