Propaganda under the cut:

Ballister Boldheart:

So, Ballister Boldheart is a knight in a techno-medieval futuristic fantasy world, in a closed-off, fictional country called The Kingdom. The countries, as we know it, don't exist (it's a fantasy world!) The movie is based on a comic of the same name by ND Stevenson. Nate, the author, mentioned once that he imagined Ballister to be of East Asian descent in the comic. In the animated movie, his comic design was significantly altered and modeled after his voice actor, Riz Ahmed, a Pakistani-origin British actor. Hence, compared to the comic, movie Ballister has a much darker skin complexion, and his South Asian features are more pronounced. Ahmed had also made it a point not to hide his natural accent while playing the character. Nate, in an interview, has said that Riz Ahmed was such a perfect cast for Ballister that all of his memories of the character from the comic were just replaced by him. Racism is not overtly present in the movie, however, if you squint, Ballister's story could *also* function as an allegory on racism, about how brown men are demonized in society due to preconceived notions (spoilers: The Director, a white woman in power, killed the black head of the state who wanted to reform the system, and framed Ballister as a villain and terrorist for the murder)

He is just looking for acceptance :( My boy has so much self esteem issues. He tries so hard and is always doing his best and yet is afraid that it won't be enough and people will still end up hating him.

this post by @sir-ballister-boldheart is a compilation of fanfiction that explores Ballister's Pakistani and South Asian heritage: https://www.tumblr.com/sir-ballister-boldheart/744811107335782400/desi-ballister-desi-ballister?source=share

Kabru:

Kabru was the only survivor after his home village of Utaya was destroyed along with a nearby dungeon. Kabru grapples with survivor's guilt and wishes to take down the Lunatic Magician to prevent a tragedy like that from happening again. As a party leader, Kabru is trusted by his party members, though his unfamiliarity with monsters means that he and his party are frequently killed. Kabru should be desi because there's a mountain named Mt. Kabru that borders India and Nepal.

When talking about sweets from his village, he holds up a plate of something that resembles rasgulla.

This comic also illustrates his relationship to his adoptive mother, Milsiril. Elves tend to view the shorter-lived races with equal parts prejudice and paternalism, an allegory for real world racial dynamics. Milsiril attempts to overwrite Kabru's culture and cuisine, as is a common theme with children of colour who are adopted by white parents.

In chapter 62, he cooks a lamb stew for Mithrun, which could very easily be nihari. Given the sheer amount of detail and care that Ryoko Kui puts into her world and it's characters, these details make it plausible that Kabru could be desi.

Gay sex fixes everything

Mild spoilers for the next chapters of Somebody Loves You under the cut:

Ballister, in the middle of a mental breakdown: “You know what would help this? Sex. Lots of sex.”

(In) correct goldenheart quotes

Obsessed teen amb: are you an actress, supermodel, seagodess?? Or d all of the above

Teen Bal: aren't you sweet...

TeenbAmb: *flabbergasted, turning to the other knights in traning* okay you guys get outta here so me and beautiful gorgeous can live happily ever after

Teen Todd: dude you're the descendant of gloreth. You can't date a street child
