  • On the surface, Cross Ange is just another fanservice mech anime. The first few episodes will filter out a lot of people before of the gore.

    If you stick with it, you get one of the more aggressively feminist anime out there. And I do mean aggressive. Every character arc is a metaphor for something women either have to deal with primarily or exclusively in society. The show actively punishes the female characters who can’t recognize themselves as victims and rewards the ones who do and work to fix their situations. The final villain is an incel power fantasy. I’ve seen next to no discussion on Cross Ange in this context online.









  • Also bans Christmas trees. Jeremiah 10:1-4

    And bans growing more then one crop. Leviticus 19:9-28

    You will find lots of cope for the Christmas tree one. Hardly anyone knows the crop one, but it actually makes sense if you understand how seed saving works and how devastating it can be for a village to have just one growing season wasted on unviable seed.
