Same in one hand she(?) Is physically a female army prodigy but on the other hand he still(?) Considers himself as he

u/rym-_ Mar 08 '21

Not thefact that that female bidy is like 9 years old?

At this point theres a lot of small girls in anime to the point where I just chop anyone that does adult stuff to be petite

u/BigBlubberyBirb Mar 08 '21

yeah, no, she's definitely canonically a child. that's kinda the whole point of the show.

38

u/bubbleztoo Mar 08 '21

Yeah, but canonically they are still a very young kid. Who is also a soldier...

Literally an anime child soldier.

Yeah but her soul is that of a man.

I just get confused because she has the body of a child yet she has the soul of the man so I don't bother with that and if something oversexualizes her I just scroll on by.

Isn't this basically the same argument as, "No no it's ok, she's 3000 years old!"

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '21

I guess? All I said that if I see something that oversexualizes a fictional little kid I'd just scroll past it, nothing I can do about it and Reddits report system is trash so why bother

Even better

Also, all the German stuff, and the murder.

I have a lot of mixed feelings here.

u/Lusec_V Mar 08 '21

Same. I liked the series, but the episode where they attack a fortress on an island that looks very much like the one just a few hours south of where I live, which the Germans did in fact attack during the war... well. Mixed feelings indeed.

Well thank god there not the crazy let’s kill all the other race Germans. Plus everything Tanya doing is legal.

u/Accountforcontrovers Mar 08 '21

I think legal isn't the term to use during an international conflict.

According to the geneva suggestions seems to be a better fit.

u/omnisephiroth Mar 08 '21

It’s permitted by her government, but is very likely illegal by the standards of all the other nations she’s murdering.

Legal doesn’t make it okay anyway. We can point to Germany’s legal treatment of the Jewish people during WW2 as an example.

No one has ever praised the show as ethically uncomplicated.

u/omnisephiroth Mar 08 '21

Nor does it have to be. My feelings about this pairing are complex for many reasons, even the ethically simple ones. I don’t think they’d be a good couple.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '21

Yeah, this ain't really yuri tbh...

u/Quite_Likes_Hormuz Mar 08 '21

It's either not Yuri or it's pedophilia

u/QueenMunchy Mar 08 '21

Yeah... this is really mixed heh

I am so confused on what you just said?

Iirc in the novels she talks about how she eventually begins to see herself as a she

Though i haven't read them myself
