SPOILERS FOR SPY X FAMILY: CODE WHITE
So I've just seen the new Spy x Family movie twice, and it's gotten me curious as to what y'all's opinions are on a specific part.
There are two parts of the movie where Loid and Yor's thoughts are hidden from us:
Firstly, at the ferris wheel, she asks if they are flirting aggressively, causing both parents to look away while we hear the special jingle, meaning her telepathy was activated. We never actually hear what either one of them were thinking though.
Secondly, when Loid looks at Anya after realizing that the reason she left the hotel room was to get the cherry liquor that they needed. Again, we hear her jingle but never what she is picking up.
Both instances led to Anya looking really happy, so it's safe to assume that, in both instances, they were good thoughts, but I'm curious as to what they actually were.

I was gonna start watching a new series that kept popping up on my feed (both here and TikTok) so I decided to look up the tag and see what it's about and huh ????
WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS ONE SIDED ROMANCE? AND THEN ONE OF THEM DIES TO SAVE THE OTHER. AND THE CANON YURI COUPLE IS SPLIT APART BY DEATH
How do I keep attracting these tragic stories to me? I was a supernatural fan for years, I've seen these scenes play out before. Haven't I suffered enough?!

No, I am genuinely so pissed off at MAPPA rn because how to you take a series that was the main reason you become such a huge success, continues to be talked about almost a decade later, and can essentially be described as one of the shows that shaped anime history and decide- not only to lead on that dedicated fan base for YEARS but to CANCEL this massive project on a random Thursday night/Friday morning. And to even have the AUDACITY to write your statement the way that they did, as a quick "oh well, see you later."
I sure hope they enjoy that JJK and CSM money while they can cause who knows. If their biggest show could be dropped so carelessly, who's to say they won't do it again.

I was going through the anti Jason Todd tag because I hate myself and want to understand where people who dislike him are coming from and one thing I kept seeing was annoyance at Jason fans who claim that Jason is female coded and realized that the term “female coded” might not be the best term to describe what we mean.
A female coded character in literature and media typically means a character that has no specified gender or otherwise does not have a gender but is obviously meant to be a stand in for a woman or female. Kind of like how Starfire has no specified race (due to being an alien) but is still obviously black coded based on the way she’s drawn and treated by the narrative.
This is slightly different than what we mean when saying that Jason is female coded. It’s not that Jason is literally supposed to be a stand in for a female character, it’s that the way a lot of characters treat him and a lot of the tropes used on him are things that usually saved for female characters, not big buff men like Jason.
To start with, being Robin is narratively (or at least was) very similar to being a woman in a story. Robin is a role made to complement Batman (who we all know is basically the ultimate male power fantasy). Robin’s role is to be an accessory to Batman. Robin can be smart, but not smarter than Batman. Robin can be strong, but not stronger than Batman. Hell, Robin is often kidnapped and used as a literal damsel in distress, a role often regulated for women as a whole.
What sets Jason apart from the other robins (except for Steph) in this regard is that they were allowed to be characters outside of Batman. Dick might not have been the “man” of the story when he’s with Bruce, but when he’s with the teen titans suddenly he’s the smart one who has all the answers. Jason’s Robin was never really allowed this.
Then we get to the most, controversial, part of Jason’s female coding. The fact the he was effectively fridged. Fridging is usually only referred to as frigding if it’s a female character, but Jason’s death checks pretty much all the other boxes needed. An incredibly brutal death that was more about Bruce’s feelings on it than Jason himself.
This is especially apparent when compared to the other Bat characters. For all the female coding, the only other Robin to actually be fridged was Steph (and we all know about the misogyny surrounding her death). Barbara was also kind of fridged during the killing Joke. The only female character to escape this is Cass (to my knowledge). When you look at it through this lens, the fact that the only other characters to be permanently damaged like this for Bruce’s story are female, it’s not hard to see where the idea that Jason is female coded comes from.
You can even find this in Jason’s origin story. Poor little orphan is saved by benevolent billionaire is a role usually saved for little girls, like in Annie.
Despite what you might think, this even continues after Jason’s revival. Jason is still used less as a character and more as a motivation for Bruce. He’s regularly called emotional and hysterical (terms usually used to refer to women).
Jason is first and foremost a victim. A role performed by women in most media. Men are expected to be stoic and “rise above” the things done to them as to not be victims, as continuously shown by the way characters like Nightwing are not allowed to be effected by the horrific things they go through. The fact that Jason is shown the be angry, and sad, and emotional, constantly, and the fact that he’s punished and vilified for it puts him in a place much more similar to a female character.
There’s a reason that so many Jason fans (that like him for a reason past “antihero with guns”) are female. For most characters, when you swap their genders there would be a pretty clear and big difference in the way their story takes place. If you swap Jason’s gender, the story takes place identically.
A lot of this is best shown in men’s reactions to Arkham Knight’s version of Jason. In that game, Jason is similarly angry and emotional, albeit for slightly different reasons. He is also still unmistakably a victim. You’d think the men playing would like him. After all he’s a big cool angsty guy with a lot of guns and muscles. Instead, a lot of men’s thought that he was whiny. That his feelings were annoying.
There’s also something to be said about how his autonomy is regularly undermined by Bruce (specifically in Gotham war) and how his decisions and feeling are constantly treated as if they’re worth less than Bruce’s, but that’s a discussion for another day.

If I had a nickel for everytime one of my favorite characters died traumatically and I found out through Twitter, I would have 3 nickles. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened thrice.
