#just me ranting but like literally what is wrong w all the rgu material outside of the anime/movie and being weird abt touga#like. touga is not a good guy that’s not what i mean#but the anime/movie at least handle the fact that he’s a csa victim with care#but the first light novel and ALL of the manga versions make me like#angry cartoon man gripping u intensely.jpeg#like at least anime touga sucks in a specific and illustrative and INTENTIONAL way#manga touga just sucks UDXGSJDBCJ#like im sorry u want me to LIKE this guy after utena came to him for help after she’d been (assumedly) raped by akio#and touga’s response was just ���’don’t talk to me we can’t be friends anymore’’?!!?!! NO? LOL#and then in the AoU manga fsr the way that utena manages to leave ohtori is by FORGETTING TOUGA?!#WHAT? THE WHOLE POINT OF THAT STORYLINE IN THE MOVIE WAS THAT SHE HAD TO CONFRONT THE TRUTH ABT TOUGA#SO THAT SHE COULD RECOGNIZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO ANTHY#AND RECOGNIZE THE HARM OF PROJECTING GENDERED IDEALS ONTO SOMEONE#LIKE THERES A REASON THAT SHE HAS TO CONFRONT THE TRUTH ABT TOUGA IN THAT ELEVATOR TAKING HER TO ANTHY U KNOW#and then in the manga version ur telling me that utena has the chance to meet her dear childhood friend again#and hear him speak his truth to her#the truth that he died without ever being able to tell anyone#and he has to be entirely forgotten for utena to leave ohtori? FAIL#like what a weird plot beat. hate it#and then the atr manga is the worst fucking one dhsgdjxbxb#like what do u mean touga is making his living by enabling a predator to continue preying on children. i hate you so much#you can’t say that and then just move on and continue the story as if he and saionji just were having a disagreement of ideals#that’s way too fucked up dhxgsjdbxbxb what were you THINKING#AND THE FIRST LIGHT NOVEL. MY BELOATHED.#the cocsa storyline w him and miki is just so awful and adds nothing meaningful to the story it’s just like.#u could remove it entirely and nothing particularly important would be lost??#not that the novel was saying anything all that meaningful in the first place tho imo…#but that’s a whole other can of worms shxgsjdbxh anyway. long tangent#the point is none of the ancillary material is even remotely normal abt touga and somehow does more psychic damage to me than the anime#im so afraid to go through the sega saturn game like i shudder to think of his route jdsgjdxb 💀
