Oh it's much worse than that. Around the time of S1, some Twittards thought their was trooning in the show, because either Sakura or Lily's socks were the same colored strip design as the tranny pride flag.

It was Sakura's pajama pants, and I think that was just a coincidence. Lily's hair bow in her season 2 episode could've been a nod to the Western fans however, since MAPPA loves those.
Still doesn't make Lily transgender though.

It doesn't, but the Twittards started seething & dilating when told that. Also thanks, I had a feeling it was Sakura.

The irony is almost all the examples he retweeted that for are kinda wrong. Not that it matters to the Twittersphere. They still say Naoto from Persona 4 is trans despite it not being true.

2018 was Zombieland Saga. Lily is a boy who dressed up as a female idol. All the official descriptions for her say she's "actually a boy" and pretty much treat the character as a gimmick.

2019 he claims was Stars Align, an actual LGBT anime. No one argued against that though. They just said it sucked. Which it did, and it was cancelled. The director ended up begging overseas fans to save his show because there was no interest for it in Japan.

2020 was Yamato from One Piece. Not a trans man as people say. All official merchandise calls her a girl and even gets promoted under the Strong Females of One Piece brand line.

2021 was Wonder Egg Priority. People were swearing Momoe was trans because she's a tomboy, but she wasn't. There was a trans man character but the whole plot of the show is it's about a hell dimension for girls. So the fact the character was there means the show says trans men are still women. Also the show went into heavy biotruth and anti-women stuff that ended up making it one of ANN/woke anime fans most hated shows of 2021 despite them championing it early on because they thought Momoe was trans.

2022 is now Bridget, I guess. But yeah, the she/her stuff is only in English localization and Japan still calls him a boy.

So he went viral for a pretty factually wrong statement.

Very well said..

Sadly, it looks like the so-called "fandom" wiki is going all-in on the Yamato is a transman stupidity. Fandom LGBT staff literally overruling the OP wiki admins/mods/users and declaring Yama's male gender is beyond questioning and "protected" on all parts of the fandom site. (i.e. not just the article but "misgendering" even in comments = ban)

Yamato

lol You couldn't make this stuff up.

Combine this with other stuff like the "mature" (ecchi or ecchi content heavy) series purge and things sound pretty nuts over there without even looking hard. I think Fandom wiki may need a topic of their own at some point.

How is this related to ANN lunacy?

Predictably, they have just covered Vic losing the appeals.

Given how they were one of the main sources of all this drama in the first place, this just feels wrong.

I totally expect the forum posters on their site to be pro-Vic and not anti-Funimation at all.

ANN is slipping.
For once, Bounding into Comics managed to publish their article about a topic before ANN.
This is twice now that ANN has been beaten to the punch.
ANN should change their name to Late N' Gay.

Being late and gay is ANN’s business model after all, even if they don’t care that they’re hemorrhaging money in the process.

It's weird that this Bridget thing is still going because it seems obvious to me that he's not meant to be called a girl at all (at least originally in Japan). Yet there's so much butthurt and censorship if you bring that up to the point where people won't listen. It's just gonna trigger a massive meltdown when the follow-up to the story comes and it turns out Bridget is still being called a guy. (Unless ASW hopes that dividing the canon between japanese/english will work, which I doubt it will).

It's a trap fanservice character. The issue is this retarded US niche industry has been taken over by an army of troons, and now they are pushing their preferences for imagined representation into everything.

And worst of all, they’re acting like pic related:

They call themselves “wanting to be seen” in their image, yet they make everything bleak and distorted in their worldview.

This is the fate of anything trying to be intersectional, you will never be able to just have an opinion on something without a million people jumping into say you aren't viewing it from the right perspective and the solution? Well, AniFem should just become a TERF website and felt the fags and trannies, that'd be funny as fuck.

Does AniFem write for ANN?
If not, then perhaps AniFem should get a thread.

I'm actually excited for the meltdown megathread when they "slip" that Bridget isn't actually a tranny and is just some guy in a nun outfit.
