#that’s why Ichigo and Grimmjow should start a family together for real

[acediaedeus]

just saw someone say they can’t believe Ichigo didn’t try for a girl after Kazui, and like… damn… they’re SON right. he was destined to be a girl dad, and Kubo gives him a son??? I have nothing against Kazui, don’t get me wrong, he’s a cute kid and all, BUT.

and I do believe that misogyny’s at play here, because “oh, firstborn son, you’re so lucky”, “only a son can inherit all these super cool powers”, “the MC of a shōnen simply CAN NOT have a firstborn daughter, it’s against the laws of nature”. at least that’s the vibe I’m getting, although I could just be searching for a problem where there is none.

and because of this “daughters can’t inherit cool stuff” we never see any truly impressive and undefeated female characters in shōnen. and yes, I know, the genre is catered towards teenage boys, and don’t want to read about a female MC or have a woman be the strongest in that verse. but let’s be fucking for real, girls read shōnen too, and if they can’t deal with a strong woman maybe they should Keep Themselves Safe, yk?（＾∇＾）

like, yeah, Unohana is strong, she’s a Kenpachi, so cool, right? and yet she loses and dies in order for Zaraki to have a power up :/

there’s Yoruichi, of course, but that’s how they always do it, no? let the fastest character be a woman, speed isn’t all anyway. but the strongest?? a woman?!?!! we can’t let that happen!!!

there’s always this fuckass man, who will defeat the strongest woman, because, well, he’s a man. or worse, have that woman fall in love with him, and SECEDE the title to him.

anyway, before I go on a rampage: Kurosaki Ichigo should’ve had a daughter.
