i was thinking about besides devo getting a anime the most controversial getter anime they could make is a remake of Armageddon cause despite the fact it could absolutely fix the issues the show has it be one of those things that wouldn’t be necessary and people would be sick of more arma content.
But then I thought about “okay but then they could make Kei actually trans if they had the fucking balls” and I know this would NEVER happen but that would make people seethe more then arms being remade and I found that so funny. (And yes this is very much related to my last post)
#meg text#getter robo#fyi I’m not saying a arma remake needs to happen it definitely doesn’t but this is something that’s crossed my mind#I like how the whole fandom or at least people I talk to agree Kei is trans even if it’s entirely metaphorical#she can’t be trans in universe but certain aspects of her character are LITERALLY trans#go arguably too but it gets a little more murky with him#i actually wanna do a analysis about this but i don’t know how to word it more then my essays about ryoma#also Kei’s gender is that odd thing where it’s not explored enough to make a concrete analysis even if there’s things to pick at#I wish it was more explored but it was the 90s-even if stuff was trying back then-and arma had a lot to juggle#also it could definitely be one of those things where it wasn’t intended but like- people are allowed to still read off of a character lmao#i literally learned that in my writing class the authors intent is valid but so is any interpretation that is against it#tho also saying this makes me kinda glad getter isn’t popular again bc i feel there be discourse over this#not only by bigots but I think some people wouldn’t like this portrayal but like- it’s also not develop enough to be offensive#like it’s weird genki was forced to be a boy but no one really judges Kei for that#and only two people use her original name and one is Saotome who’s a dick to begin with lol
