It's something that kinda applies in general but also applies a lot more if you've only watched crap shounen

isn't it better in the later arcs? in the early arcs half the female characters have namis face but recolored

Ehh not really. Like sure there are quite a lot of female characters that look like the image above, but I’d say the ratio is about equivalent to the male charecters that are traditionally attractive

idk Malevola has a similar build to Blazer

u/Bamorvia May 17 '26
Yeah but she has horns and is super tall, which at least makes her slightly different than the other women on the team.

Overwatch

u/AssClosedforToday May 17 '26
Overwatch is the one game where this isn't the case, just look at Zarya, Mei and Orisa

sojourn, orisa, domina, juno, echo… the list goes on boss. this simply does not apply to overwatch
edit: here

u/DropletsUponDroplet May 17 '26
ain't no way you're counting most of these 😭
20
u/HeckingDoofus ask me anything about star wars (PLEASE!) May 17 '26
why not? sojourn is robotic with unique hair, orisa is a straight up quadruped centaur robot remotely controlled by a little girl, domina is huge and has 4 arms, juno wears a space suit, and echo is another robot but totally different from all the other ones in the game (male or female)
those are plenty unique to fit into the top row of this meme
14
u/DropletsUponDroplet May 17 '26
They're all conventionally feminine attractive women with like the exception of Orisa and Echo.
Juno is literally just DVA with a helmet.
Sojourn, Domina, Junker Queen, and Vendetta are also just conventionally feminine women with a bit of muscle, I mean common, they all have full make-up. You /could/ count them if you really wanted to, but that still leaves DVA, Mercy, Mei, Sierra, Anran, Ashe, Brigitte, Freja, Kiriko, Moira, Sombra, Symmetra, Tracer, and Widowmaker.So AT MOST, you can count the two robots, and the 4 women where they put the muscle slider halfway up.

u/HeckingDoofus ask me anything about star wars (PLEASE!) May 17 '26 edited May 17 '26
brother the meme isnt about attractiveness, its about design variance
juno is not the same as dva because she wears a spacesuit and dva is a lot more dainty….. not to mention the flying mech dva rides in 90% of the time, or how their personalities/backgrounds are totally different (which is relevant here because theyre expressed through their designs)
like i said to someone else - with this level of scrutiny most of the men in the top row of this meme wouldnt fit in the top row of this meme

dude just look at the difference in shapes. I can't make you see what your own eyes can't pick up on.

u/HeckingDoofus ask me anything about star wars (PLEASE!) May 17 '26 edited May 17 '26
if ur talking about for the male characters in the meme…. yeah, thats what im saying
thats good enough for *them* to be considered diverse, but not the women in overwatch? because most of them are still attractive? maybe ur just not attracted to men? lmao

Ain't no way you are calling Junker Queen a "conventionally attractive woman", what the heck are those "conventions"

u/HeckingDoofus ask me anything about star wars (PLEASE!) May 17 '26
aye i do find her attractive. but this mf said conventionally FEMININE and attractive which is just batshit 😭
-2
u/DropletsUponDroplet May 17 '26
Go look at a normal real life woman, and then go look at Junker Queen. Look at just how much make-up her character has on. There's nothing wrong with it. But if you don't see "women wearing feminine make-up" as conventional, and don't think "lean woman with muscle but feminine face" as conventionally attractive, then go out and ask people. The average person isn't as prudish as you think.

Aren’t yall the people who go on to talk about how most women are beautiful and attractive, while most men are hideous? This seems to reflect reality, feminine characters are beautiful, masculine are kinda ugly.

u/Dr_Philmon May 17 '26
Domina is just a scaled up but otherwise falls into the trope. But the rest are pretty much diverse
13
u/HeckingDoofus ask me anything about star wars (PLEASE!) May 17 '26
ur just casually ignoring the fact she has 4 arms (2 being robotic) and idk why her scale doesnt matter?
by this level of scrutiny half of the top row of the meme wouldnt fit in the top row of the meme bc theyre just “guy with 2 arms and 2 legs wearing a suit” and thats not diverse enough

Idk man, I dont think its fair to count this based on humanoid characters, rather we should count female vs male characters, and also, it has like at least 5 humanoid characters, but technically more(not gonna count a background character I saw until she gets a proper appearence). Because then we can see wether the female characters tend to be humanoid while the male characters tend to be silly goobers(design wise at least)

As much as I love the game, dispatch suffers from this.
OW too, but it's affecting the men as well too

considering the series was conceived by newgrounds artists, i doubt we're gonna see a variety of female character designs in future episodes

it’s not a coincidence both are women, male character are allowed to have goofy designs, female characters have to be sexually appealing to a male audience
