がんばルビ!


The title should be self-explanatory, but if it wasn't, this is a cute anime for cool people and bears.

The OP and ED also basically tell you what you're in for.

there's some sexual jokes in the first episode but none of the later chapters of the manga have any.

there are jokes about sex but they aren't about sexualizing preteens or w/e. they're about how old folktales and legends have a lot of weird sex stuff in them.

Okay!

So, I've, like, designed a really sweet attack plan that I'm calling Attack Plan Ded Moroz, like "Deadmau5!"

Alas, poor Natsu. The unkindest cut of all.

This is a fun show. The wait between episodes will be tough to bear.

That doesn't really answer what's up with it. Aren't the Japanese famously, hilariously racist against the Ainu? Why is it just there without any comment? Why's she wearing that over her miko dress? Is it a marker for something that I don't get? Is the author some sort of Ainu sympathizer?

maybe somebody who reads the comic can say if it is actually explained, but idk why it's so odd to you. both golden kamui and silver spoon have touched on ainu culture (the former is basically 80% about it) and they're very popular and well-regarded manga.

i mean america is grossly racist to non-whites and there are still media with/centered around poc and their experiences. they're not mutually exclusive or anything.

Basically, it looks old and traditional. Which is the aesthetic the artist is going for. Besides, us Americans don't have a good track record w.r.t Native Americans but we'll gladly wear their patterned tshirts or whatever.

To my knowledge America and Canada generally don't pretend that the Natives don't exist. It's more like having a Turkish movie about the Armenian Genocide or something. I'm not familiar with Golden Kamui or any of that, so it might be that younger people or popular culture aren't as bad as I thought the whole country is.
