Okay, but let's talk for a second about accessibility in M!IK's Netherworld.
First of all, I love, LOVE, that the characters in this manga are so heterogeneous in size and shape.
I mean, look at MeiMei, they're as big as one of Amduscias's foot, and still taken very seriously :')
Tbh it kinda makes most other series look pretty boring - and I like it this way, the real world is heterogeneous and media should be to (imo).
With that said, different shapes can be treated very differently, right? Say, think about making fat people pay for a bigger seat instead of making bigger seats where everyone is more comfy... Weird right?
Specifically this panels really hit me:
It low-key sent me into a spiral, not gonna lie.
"So, we are literal demons and technically we live in a ruthless world, but also we think about the needs of everybody and accomodate accordingly, because why wouldn't we"
And that's not it! For instance, not all demons have tails, but all Babyls uniforms have holes for them, and who doesn't have one simply carries on with their life. (Also, the freedom to customize them... Top notch. And you can mix and match like Opera did, or wear a different one like Azz and Ameri, so no real binarism either ♡)
Honestly, if this is how the Netherworld is, I may just start to summon random demons and ask to be brought there, it's worth a chance if you ask me
