You must be kidding, right? we even had "damsel in distress" in sentai members. Pteraranger allways takes kids to safety while the guys fight, for example. Just because americans make heroines like "busty fighter whatever" doesnt mean Japan is not still a male dominated society. For christ sake, have you ever seen a girl flirting with a guy in japan media ? giving them cooked stuff and whatnot. Always a submisive position. Im here to make you stuff, acept it senpai. In Gokaiger we see that in the high school chapter ( I always forget that sentai season, the one in wich the whole 5 are high school students)Black Fang said:It's funny you say that, considering by and large I can take Japanese superheroines more seriously than most big/small screen American ones. Both may have their fanservice, but the former isn't lecturing me on what they *think* is female equality and ability while using sex appeal to sell that idea. Female characters in toku speak for themselves as far as their worth goes; they have their own problems, but at least they don't revolve around the fact that they're female. They just are.
Dekapink always says shes the captain , I think I said "leaders", not mentors, but more power to my POVBlack Fang said:Kruger was male.
Stereotypes asociated with colours and clich'es is NOT patriarchy? Having colours for girls and colours for guys is equality or something?Black Fang said:And that demonstrates patriarchy? How many all-yellow henshins were there? Yellow's been more of a girl color in Sentai these days.
Black Fang said:Huh? Rio didn't even acknowledge Mele's existence most of the time outside giving her orders.
haha, I messed up the characters names.
5$ says typo or some other form of mixup...
