transphobes suddenly think they become loremastersTM when they have opinions on bridget because they parrot some misconstrued lore but when you ask them how do you block an overhead they’re like i don’t really interact with the community so i don’t know the language :/

No way are people STILL arguing that Bridget isn't trans MONTHS after Daisuke Ishiwatari himself wrote bilingual (trilingual..? do they post the devlogs in Korean..?) statements in clear as hell writing about how she's a trans woman??? Seriously???????

I remember when she was first released and suddenly everyone was N1 turbo master level at Japanese language and culture too lol

"Well Ackshually the 9th reading on this kanji that I looked up just now on Jisho that only shows up in Arcade Ending B in one line invalidates ur point" <- only knows the の hiragana because of memes

#asks #transphobia cw #There were so many people getting 男の子 and 男の娘 mixed up (they have the same readings) and it was very obvious-#-that not a single one of them had any idea what they were on about lol #What was really especially funny about the whole thing were the Americans that were like 'Japanese people are VERY upset about this'#But then all of my Japanese mutuals and their friends and people I found in searches were just like #'Oh cool I love her new design. She's very cute and I hope her playstyle is fun'#Like there were a couple actually Japanese people that were annoyed about it but they definitely seemed like the minority #I saw more Japanese people complaining about the Americans whining about Bridget & spamming tags than any other criticism hahaha #I'm American but the Bridget Event™️ really opened my eyes to just how much (some) Americans think they're the center of the world
