glad to see ppl are appreciating and/or enjoying the gay and trans aspects of nimona's story but ngl i kinda want to see more ppl acknowledge and/or discussing the fact that both of the leading men are asian and how that is relevant to overall message of this movie actually
#idk this just me but so far i have seen like zero posts on my tl discussing how ballister and ambrosius#being men of color further enhances the movie's narrative and the intersectionality that comes w it#yeah despite ambrosius and ballister both being asian they're still of different backgrounds#ambrosius is east asian while ballister is south asian#how part of their designs are meant take after their respective voice actors#the fact that in the story ballister grew up poor and queen who decided to take uplift him was a black woman#that ballister had to train twice hard be twice good than other knights bc for him he had be anything but exceptional#and then we could talk abt how w ambrosius sm emphasis is put on the fact that he's a descendant of gloreth (a white woman) as an asian man#idk man i just think more ppl should be taking note of the decision to change#these two from originally being white men to asian men in this adaption and how that is significant actually#nimona#robi rambles
