I see most people not excited about it because the series has aged so damn poorly. Between the Akito asspull, underaged relationships, hamfisted abuse, and the cop out way the love triangle ended the reboot is going to be a disaster in modern western fandom climate. but it’s not like the west is really the target audience.

Underaged relationships?

Underaged by our laws, or Japan's?

No shade here, I saw the series about 100 years ago, don't remember much of it, and never read the manga, so I'm just curious.

pretty sure 26 year old men dating high school is considered skeevy everywhere.

My shoujo manga disagrees.

Another school girl in Furuba had a crush on a forty year old...

The abuse is what I remember the most from the series. Everybody had such abusive, shitty families.

When the Akito asspull happened there was so much infighting between people who considered it revolutionary and feminist and people who were pissed, and the latter lost the purity contest because it was decided they were just misogynists and upset "he" wasn't a hot guy anymore.

...I don't know about other places, but that's exactly how I'd expect it to go down on Tumblr today.

yeah, this seems like an objective, neutral description

It's funny because I AM neutral, literally. I don't give a shit about FB and I watched the drama as an outsider. That's how it really was. You should look it up.

Christ, I remember seeing some of that. I doubt tumblr would construe "the most irrational, villainous, hateful character in the series is actually a woman" twist as a point towards feminism. I also don't think they'll take kindly to her being forced into being trans.

(Anonymous) 2019-03-07 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
And she was made that way because of her evil, slutty mom.

Yeah, these plot lines are bound to go down well.

Neh, Tumblr loooooooves evil female characters if they're hot and androgynous and loves to drink the tears of "straight girls" who are horny for evil male characters. They'll love Akito.
