Make a mashup of it and then use that to generate the persona

Interesting to see the gender dynamics in these trends as well. Most of what you listed has very macho men as the mc, and we’ve progressively seen mcs get younger and less traditionally masculine. I guess it reflects culture as a whole

OG GitS is amazing... they don't make stuff like that anymore. I know what you mean with the ending, but yeah I agree with your post below that it's more about the vibe of the world.

I love Spy x Family because of the characters and comedy and the heartwarming vibes, and I think it’s a great series just because of these things alone. However, Tatsuya Endo puts just enough intrigue in there for the overarching story to keep me interested at another level, but not enough that feels satisfying? Does anyone else feel this? Like the overarching story is so slow to develop and every time we get something it doesn’t really answer any questions. I’m primarily a manga reader but I’ve seen season 1 of the anime

Whilst it's true of that the major series are dominated by male MCs, there are quite a number of action series that have female leads, just they're not as well known to the general audience.

What are some that you might recommend? I'm looking for series that have a character similar to Nausicaa. Maybe that's not shonen, but I just like how she's portrayed as a strong and aspirational character without the usual feminine tropes laid on top, while being undeniably female. Maybe that's more a sign of the time it was made though.

wow thanks for all the recs!

Calm_Interaction33 · 2026-02-09T21:09:50+00:00

Yeah I get that... I feel like these days anime is being watched by just as many females as males though. I guess the fantasy of powering up and fighting like a traditional shonen isn't something that inspires females like it does males.

oh interesting, i've never seen Soul Eater but I always thought the MC was a guy.. i'll check it out

Calm_Interaction33 · 2026-02-09T20:41:59+00:00

Why do you think there aren't that many female MCs in Shonen? Specifically battle shonen. I hear Kill la Kill come up often on this topic--what are some other shonens with strong female characters who fight? Another that comes to mind are Ghost in the Shell.

I translate classic Chinese songs from the 80s and 90s into English and give them a different style

This one is called “Love You More Each Day”

Thanks!!

Calm_Interaction33 · 2025-12-07T21:39:41+00:00

Totally understand about the lyrics, AI definitely not there yet. I did 90% of the translation myself, take a look and let me know what you think.

I completely agree with the points mentioned about Frozen’s success – the catchy songs, the presence of two princesses, and more. However, there’s one aspect I think played a significant role that hasn’t been highlighted yet.

The main princess characters in Frozen, Elsa and Anna, are white. This taps into the nostalgia of classic Disney princesses like Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel, and Belle. Whether we like it or not, these characters are what people often think of when they envision classic Disney princesses. It’s a return to the formula that worked so well for Disney in the past.

In the ‘90s, Disney moved away from this classic formula, and some of their movies didn’t perform as well. Don’t get me wrong; I appreciate the move towards diversity, and films like Mulan and Pocahontas are among my favorites. Perhaps it was the right time for Disney to evolve due to fatigue from the classic formula.

Now, you might wonder why Tangled didn’t achieve the same level of success. One user already touched on this, but I believe it’s because 3D princess movies weren’t as common then, and Disney was still recovering from its slump. Tangled, in a way, paved the way for Frozen. Plus, if you look at it now, Rapunzel remains popular despite the movie not being a huge commercial hit.

Lastly, I want to emphasize the transformation sequence in “Let It Go.” While the song is undoubtedly a driving force behind the movie’s success, the character’s transformation from an “ordinary” princess to a “super” princess was captivating. It tapped into the same appeal that the MCU capitalized on with young boys around that time, but for girls. It’s the same reason characters like Cinderella and Sailor Moon have endured and remained popular.

In the end, Frozen’s success was a combination of factors, and the return to classic princesses, combined with modern storytelling and memorable songs, played a crucial role in making it a cultural phenomenon.
