I was bored enough to check out that Mary Sue article bluebear linked to and...
Well... just see for yourselves:

Now I know not to go there ever again, at least.
Ha, yeah because we know that girls in real life are never in their underwear and are never in any sort of compromising position.
 
No complaints about women are allowed! In fact, go out of your way to mock men!

I have seen literally nobody complain about the new Professor Layton.

The Mary Sue is cancer and should never be taken seriously.
For fuck's sake, it's a Japanese cartoon, grow up and stop whining about innocuous drawings.
 
And that movie only had one because it was making fun of the fact that the Kevin Costner Robin Hood had one.

The really depressing thing is that Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, is pretty much the *best* example of 'if you must put a black guy into Robin Hood, how not to piss people off.'

1. Have Morgan fucking Freeman do it.

2. Make him a new character and obviously not from around here, so nobody has to ask why the fuck Allen-a-Dale or Midge the Miller's Son is a black guy now.

3. Have other characters initially distrust and take a little time to warm up to him.

Bam. Done. And back in 1991, too.
I wonder how the SJWs would react if someone made a movie about Feirefiz the Knight.

With modern special effects, you could easily "paint" white spots on Morgan Freeman or black spots on Kevin Costner. I might look interesting if well done. But would the SJWs think it's some kind of twisted Möbius Loop racism or would they endorse it?

The name should be a tipoff. Feminists that think "Mary Sues are female empowerment" are the most tumblr-grade female supremacists out there.
 
Japan seems to have a better understanding of their target audiences, for male targeted shows they have stuff like Dobby posted and for female targeted shows they have scenes like:

You really have to go out of your way to be offended.

Right now, the industry is over-saturated. There is just too much being made nowadays and each studio is doing whatever they can to try to appeal to customers. Fact is otaku are a driving force within the industry and most shows do try to grab them, even kids shows try to target them as a periphery demographic. And then you have late-night anime, where the studio only makes money through video/figure sales.

It's the business. Studios want to make something that will sell, so they try to appeal to whatever groups they can otherwise they'll go belly up. That's the reality of the situation. You can look at something like Aldnoah Zero, which claimed it would be a game-changer for the mecha genre, and you'll see it's one of the most cliche mecha animes (to the point it feels like they were just plucking elements from popular shows) out there. Yet you can look at what they originally had planned, things that were rejected because they wanted to please fans, you would see some really good ideas that could have made for a more interesting and engaging story. Anime isn't this majestic story telling medium some people think it is, it's a means to make money.

It's the same thing that goes on in comics on our side of the Pacific. It's the same thing big name movie studios and AAA developers are going. They're trying to make money. They're going to market their creations to the masses and try to follow whatever trends. That's the big secret. Sobson can cry about it all he wants when a product doesn't appeal to him personally, but in the end he has the understanding of a small child of how the world works. People don't want to be out of a job, and not everyone can run to the Bank of Mom when things get hairy.

But that would be assuming Dobson's current situation is due to his non-existent integrity.

I don't get why people like Dobson are acting like female protagonists are an exciting new thing, in both the visual novel and adventure game genres female protagonists are not unusual and even if the main character isn't female there's a good chance a large part of the game is played from the viewpoint of a female character (Like how Pheonix Wright has characters like Maya Fey and Athena Cykes or Professor Layton has had a female assistant in the last four games of the series)

I guess he just likes swapping the gender of popular male protagantists for the sole purpose of annoying those BRUTE MALES.

And for the chance of a quick lesbian sex scene....

I see, Dobson hated drawing things even back when he was a child. Why exactly did he decide to become a cartoonist? Ah yeah, right. Validation and asspats. There's no point in drawing things when there's no payoff in forms of validation and asspats.
Makes you really wonder what the hell was going through Dobson's mind when he thought this was going to be his life decision if he hated drawing as a kid.

Wait, he DREW the whole thing? I just wrote down names for each portrait like "Beret", "Yellow Hat", "Eyepatch", "Sunglasses", "Pointy Hat" and "Big Grin".
 
"It's forcing me to interact with PEOPLE and SOCIALIZE"

I know he's probably being sarcastic. But really. Dob. No one's in any rush to interact nor socialize with you.

"Now I'm actually exercising instead of being a lazy slob!"

Self-depreciative humor only works if you can dish it out and take it at the same time.
 
Well, it's not like you're drawing anything anyway.
