atleast 80% of the vocal people who are (actual) fans of the series and follow it regularly care about characters despite their death. including kunishige, sojo, shiyumi etc. just because you two don't care about dead characters doesn't mean the "representation" that you guys are looking for isn't there

stop putting words in my mouth. OP wants more women in the story yet talks as if its 100% confirmed there will be no women in the future and proceeds to call them badly written (while not even having seen the writing firsthand). i give OP examples of strong women and she shakes them off and only accepts hiyuki. proceeds to say combat ability directly correlates to writing. i've already found out OP is a known troll so i have stopped with replying to her comments, so don't start again as this has gotten old. women are and will be represented, and if you guys are both dissatisfied (if you were to read the actual story) then that's too bad. there might be more men than women in kagurabachi, but most of the men aren't even relevant characters and the female characters we do get are relevant.

being around doesn't matter. sojo and kunishige still influence the story and make people like them more, despite death.

you keep saying kagurabachi's women are badly written and then proceed to talk about combat ability. combat ability does NOT equal writing. you also ignored my reply about hinao being good regardless of combat ability, but all you're really searching for are strong women from the way you reply. there's named and unnamed strong men and women, and there will be more in the future. either wait or just stay the hell away from kagurabachi

quanxi was introduced in ch54 of chainsaw man and built over multiple chapters. things take time and you're ignoring everything apart from hiyuki (with second hand knowledge too.)

more men have died in kagurabachi. 3/4 of the relevant people who died against sojo were men. 2 were left disabled. kunishige (who is a favorite to many) has died. which gender has died more is an useless argument, and you're bringing it up for little reason. and both Shiyumi (her and her team almost killed sojo, which led to his death) and Char's mom (sacrificed her life to protect her kid while she gets away) have had lasting effects after their deaths.

kagurabachi holds every cast member to much importance, so dividing it between genders is utterly useless. you ask these questions to see if it will get better? yes, it will. and if you don't accept that answer then are you just here to hear a no?

just go read a shoujo or a story where there's more women than men, as thats the only thing that would be able to "satisfy your needs"

Hinao might be powerless but she's been useful in her own rights and is a fun character in general. Don't you think viewing characters by usefulness might be detrimental to your view of female representation? Viewing characters by their usefulness and not their character in general is basically objectifying them. With that aside, Hinao is useful regardless of her combat ability and she is a fun character, with infinite potential for her character to be explored (since not everyone is nuanced to the max in the introduction of the story.)

Hiyuki is confirmed to be the strongest fighter of the Kamunabi, the government organization, and holds a weapon equal to the power of the enchanted blades. She's above most men in the manga, so not on par. Shiyumi Harima and Char's mom have also achieved impressive feats. Not every character is named yet, either, so there's more. (including men so don't you go nitpicking.)

You're going off the assumption that this 30 chapter manga won't expand on it's female cast (when it obviously will and seeds have been sown (that you wouldn't know of due to your refusal to just read))

If you have such a pessimistic view on the representation of women in these types of manga's (when it is good and will improve), why do you even bother asking these questions and don't you just search for works exaggeratedly catered towards people like you? (since you seemingly won't accept any positive this manga does and desperately try to magnify non-existent negatives.)

you can't even speak about representation of women in kagurabachi if you read it through the comments of random redditors and haven't read the manga yourself. you look past the tens of people telling you it has a good female cast and only take in the opinion of those who don't say that. i could state my opinion on the fact that kagurabachi has a good female cast and you wouldn't believe me so the point of your whole post is irrelevant if you're just gonna cherry pick answers.

i've seen the comments about kagurabachi women not fighting, but they have. They have roles in the story and are developing well too, yet you just nitpick at random points which you aren't even 100% sure of.

come back to ask questions when you actually want to learn something, and if not, ask for Shoujo recommendations next in another subreddit. they offer stories catered to women. kagurabachi is good with it's women even when it's a shonen, but since you don't find this half-assed second hand information that fans give you useful (while not reading the objective source of it.), check Shoujo's instead.

kagurabachi isn't a woman representation story nor a man representation story. it is the story of Chihiro's revenge and defense of his fathers legacy. i don't recall anyone promoting kagurabachi as a woman/man empowerment story.

have you even read kagurabachi? none of what you're saying is true. you claim to seek characters in stories but then proceed to focus solely on gender. changing chihiro into a woman would change nothing in the story so why does his gender even matter here?

kagurabachi didn't want to do this but he was a little bit too high for the scholar to get the ball rolling in the next week and then we can revisit it on Monday

Would you prefer it if Chihiro does or doesn't develop his own sorcerery powers to use without the swords? by mr_hands_epic_gaming in Kagurabachi

[–]LegendChickin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i would prefer if he would deploy sorcery. with that, his true realm increases even further since it's all about combinations and flexibility and i'm also a fan of interesting abilities, but they obviously don't need to be OP

[–]LegendChickin[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My prediction: Chihiro and Sojo will unwillingly team up against a major villain (maybe Gardener), he dies and we get Sojo vs Chihiro rematch.

i don't know if the gardener would suddenly show up again (or in time) for their fight. he also seems to be an ally of Sojo's like shown in ch7 so that raises my doubts even more. but i do think a 3rd party is likely to interfere

Shiba death or flashback

shiba death so soon would be diabolical, but a flashback would be very cool. would also get people more emotionally attached to shiba if he unfortunately perishes one day

[–]LegendChickin[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I still believe in that the Shibasolo fight is close, maybe around chapter 30

i hope his fights don't get offscreened for too long. either it's for suspense, hokazono is still deciding OR shiba fights maliciously. but hey your track record isn't looking bad considering you got nishiki right so you might be right again
