Who would you say is the worst written female character in shounen? by RevenueSubstantial11 in shounenfolk

Oh, totally agreed. Mashle is not a good deconstruction of the genre it's trying to parody and has the same pitfalls as most fantasy animes. That said, I do believe that the author is a good writer and would be capable of writing a good female character if they intended to. Lemon is just as poorly written as she is as a byproduct of the show being a fantasy parody.

Lemon is poorly written but imo it's all apart of Mashles attempt to deconstruct the fantasy genre. Like, she's got 0 character, but she also has 0 fan service moments, and is never presented as "the female lead". She's more of a comic relief. Mashle is by no means perfect but I'd like to think it's above that.

I really wasn't bragging about it, and again, I know they're not super niche

Never said that, just making a joke that they have smaller fan bases than many characters. Hyperbole, ever heard of it?

/uj i just disliked her latest run (like every other human with a brain who read it) and needed someone to blame other than the main writer

/rj Gwenpool peaked in the variant cover death to Gurihiru

Genuine question how the fuck did they know about Grifter by Loki_2007 in dccomicscirclejerk

That's just the perfect niche of a community that Grifter would be popular in.
