As your local anime watcher I am inclined to inform the fs community that a new skating anime has started airing.

Unlike YOI with all the Grand Prix antics and homoerotism, Medalist is about a young 11 year old skater trying to make her mark after starting late with her coach, a former flop ice dancer.

“I remember watching when [Sweden] won gold in Turin ’06. I was so fired up watching Lundqvist I was goalie the next practice…It brings back good memories, now to be part of it, very cool.”

So we know that the Marauders (our canonical pranksters) were up to all kinds of mischief… But what I wanna know is, what about the girls.

Like I know some amazing things were getting cooked up in the girls’ dorm room.

This year, I wanna read about the exploits of the Girls of Gryffindor Tower. Like in the grand tradition of British Boarding School media for girls…

…you wanna tell me that this wasn’t them on occasion?

Come on, the fics just write themselves.

For real what if the reason the boys were so oblivious is cause the girls were just too good. They just never got caught.

Mmm yes. This for 2025 please.

like i see people say stuff like “rei is a deconstruction of the idea of like the perfect girl in a male gaze-y way” and and i'm ready to agree until they go “it’s because she’s creepy and weird and bad!” like no. rei's a deconstruction of misogynistic ideas of womanhood because they’re ideals forced upon her that damage her, not because she’s in any way “creepy”. like, the fact she’s a fourteen year old girl who was basically used as a substitute wife by her father bc she looked like his own dead wife is not something that is meant to make rei look bad like holy shit.

like both rei and asuka are very obviously like. showing fantasised and misogynistic ideas of an idealised woman don’t work irl yeah. shinji's misogynistic view of them is wrong. but that’s not because rei and asuka are bad people it’s because like. “fourteen year old who's flirty and seductive” and “fourteen year old who's a quiet obedient object” are major signs of abuse and trauma and anyone actually acting in those ways at that age clearly isn’t normal. asuka is desperate for attention in any way she can get it, even unhealthy and dangerous ways. rei is at the very least I has a weird pseudo-incestous enmeshment filled abusive relationship with her father, even if she's not actively being sexually abused. asuka is seeking support, rei is a grooming victim. these are not things that are flaws in their character the entire point of subverting the expectations is to show how those expectations are unhealthy to rei and asuka like. god.
