this certainly is an episode of an anime so far huhPermalink On twitter.com
-
at least we're talking about the thing the anime is supposed to be about that's somethingPermalink On twitter.com
-
I'm like p sure this happens somewhat regularlyPermalink On twitter.com
-
wait no what is it doingPermalink On twitter.com
-
this girl Frill has extremely threatening lips and I don't like itPermalink On twitter.com
-
ion like itPermalink On twitter.com

whatPermalink On twitter.com
-
so why is it that when a gay couple makes a child with SCIENCE she's a horny murderer but when a straight couple makes a child she's uwu perfectPermalink On twitter.com
-
you know what I stand corrected in the sense that both children are hornyPermalink On twitter.com
-
that's a kid that's a childPermalink On twitter.com
-
what's happening here what is thisPermalink On twitter.com
-
wait so the anime actually wants to punch the CEO of little girl suicide in the face?Permalink On twitter.com
-
hm okayPermalink On twitter.com

Well I think the next episode can redeem some of this? The anime wants to give a name, face, and backstory to the complex societal issues the characters have been tackling all season, so that it can get wrecked in an epic fightOn twitter.com
-
If that fight doesn't go too far into lore-land and sticks to the message, it'll probably be alrightPermalink On twitter.com

But there are other parts of 11th egg that are just irredeemable. Namely all the children that are sexually into adults (confirming my worst fears about Ai and Sawaki). And presenting the child of a gay couple as unnatural and fearfulPermalink On twitter.com
-
12th egg won't fix any of that, and that SUPER sucksPermalink On twitter.com
-
An alternative reading brought to my attention: Frill was basically created by sexist and patriarchal ideas men have of women. She could just be patriarchy, and if 12th egg makes that clear I will probably... mostly forgive 11th eggPermalink On twitter.com

but it has to be SUPER obvious otherwise it just won't work. Egg has been on thin ice since day one and next week we'll finally figure out if it sticks the landing or crashes and burns in a fire exciting!Permalink On twitter.com
