Watch Psyco Pass.

I don't think you can watch the Schoolgirls arch without appreciating how well he is able to play with feminist themes within a Japanese context.

[(Anonymous)]

Psycho Pass was good, but some of his other works are so bad that the cons outweigh the pros. Every time I remember the poor girl of Saya no Uta who was forced into becoming a monster and then a sex slave, raped so many times...

[feotakahari]

At risk of being completely obtuse, is there really supposed to be a message about feminity in that? Like, is the game really trying to say something about how women are or should be, or does all that happen for some other reason? Rape and torture are pretty bad signs, but they don't necessarily mean a work is anti-feminist--there are other meanings and messages they could fit.

Urobochi likes making terrible things happen to his characters, full stop. Male or female, he's equally awful to all of them. It's not as if he singles out female characters for stuff like that; just watch Fate/Zero for a perfect example. The vast majority of the characters in general don't make it out of that one alive, and the ones who do are scarred either physically or psychologically, sometimes both.

He's an equal-opportunity character butcher.

Um. The point of that is that it was fucking awful and the main dude in Saya no Uta had become a total monster. Basically the entire point of Saya no Uta is that the main guy's tragic circumstances don't outweigh his awful behavior. The game is a tragedy, which is why the "good end" is the most messed up end. It's not like he had that happen just to make some sort of anti-feminist statement. The existence of rape in a plotline is not automatically glorifying or condoning rape.

Yes to Psycho-Pass. The schoolgirl arc is the... plastination case, right? I like that too for what happens in the epilogue.

Oh my goodness, your icon's too cute!

And I think this is the first time I've seen you around here! So welcome!

C-cute? Thank you, nice anon!
