don't kill me i am just expressing my opinion xoxo

So, I just read a posts about how some male anime/manga characters that are loved will be hated if they were female. And it got me thinking. What do you think will happen if Gojo or Sukuna were female characters (with the same power and same personality), will they be hated? For me, yes they will be hated. But, the same can't be said for Yuuji. Like, for me, even if Yuuji's character were female, somehow, I think will be loved... But what do you think?

I think they're right, female characters (specially in shonen animes) experience undeserving amount of hate. They don't have to be necessarily "annoying" or "useless" or the villain to experience this. Part of it is because of sexism and how mangaka's handle them, they mostly serve as a medium for setting up the male leads for greatness or for fan service.

If gojo was a female character he'd get hated for being annoying, too powerful, cocky and careless, not to say he doesn't get hate for this already but it'd be hundred fold than what it's now. Same goes for sukuna, oh and definitely that no way a female character can be such a powerful villain. Notice how people hated yuuji for being the "useless mc"? now pair that with misogyny, he'd get ripped to shreds each time. Again this is not me saying that they don't get unnecessary hate already but it'd definitely be worse if they were women.

We do have maki, nobara and kirara lovers but when you compare the number of accounts dedicated to/constantly talking about male characters vs the female characters you'll notice the large number disparity. This isn't just a jjk fandom problem, this is a anime fandom and on wider perspective many tv shows problem too.

Not to push societal issues in here but in general I've noticed it's easier to hate the female characters for even the most miniscule reasons. Also this is why jjk as anime pisses off a good amount of male watchers, gege might not be good at handling his female characters but there's no unnecessary fan service catering to men rather it's vice versa here and I have seen the amount of lengths the dudebros go to shit on female watchers for it.

Okay getting back to your question, yeah, no matter how great a female character there will always be certain amount of hate reserved for them, it does not have anything to do with their personality or strengths, this is the fate of female characters in shonen. Rather that or they get boiled down to big boobies mommy who is useful from time to time with no other appreciation towards their personality or emotions.

"I wish I could've bought you more lovely clothing. I wish I could've played with you a lot more. More...properly...more. If you weren't born as my child, you would've been so much happier. I made you unfortunate. I'm so sorry."
