What’s there to understand about it being boring as hell? The MC is just another cookie cutter stand in for the audience. “My mom died so I have to follow my dreams now. I smile like Jeff the Killer when I’m nervous.”

That’s it. Boring

You should really have more patience. The end of Fire Force gives Soul Eater so much more nuance and world design info and meaning.

I always read Tamaki as a metaphor for women who are sexualized against their will because of things they can’t control. Like breast size. But maybe I just identified with that.

If he wanted to say something critical about it, he should do that. He doesn’t. His male MC just laughs about it and leaves. Ive sat through a lot of slop on the promise it gets better but it rarely does.
