The anime's pace is notoriously bad 😭 like there's literally a fan project where they recut and edit it down to be better paced... It's an older series that was weekly and there's some other stuff involved making it like that. Jojo's (anime) is much newer and seasonal.

Also you're at the roughest part of the series tbh, it'll be way better after this bit

I'd recommend the manga if the anime's pace isn't doing it for you. You can binge at your own pace better that way. Easily accessible on the Jump app!

I need you to know I had this screenshot before you even replied with this

I can't blame you, there's too much cancelable things to keep track of

The way you actually added stuff to the folder when I summoned you lmaooo

You could also get into how people react when it's fiction vs reality thing and other stuff but-

A complex question where the answer in short is, it depends, but also eh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But for visually gender ambiguous characters (like Lubba) especially it's likely more whatever.

Plus, in some mediums, demographics, or genres, this playing around with gender can be more or less common. So depending on what audience you're asking, they could have differing takes on this.

For example, I have a female friend who talks generally pretty neutral, sometimes a bit fem. But she'll be silly sometimes and say something super masculine for dramatic effect or emphasis. I do something similar too. Most people do, I think.

Like how you can make your speech varying levels of feminine, masculine, or gender neutral.

Using different speech styles from what you'd typically use or what's "normal" can also be seen as humorous. In those cases, it's probably seen as a lot more whatever and normal, because it's "just a gag".

I'm sure some people might, but I don't get that impression overall. But this could vary depending on the character being depicted.

I often think about how when speaking in JP, you can convey a lot about yourself (or the social dynamics) by how you talk, in a way that's different from English.

I've had devs ask me to keep gender ambiguous/a mystery/keep players confused, just because. It wasn't even plot relevant lol.

Plus I see JP creators playing around with gender a lot in general.

Oh yeah about the Lubba article, I think I accidentally deleted though 😅 (my phone screen was half blacked out and I kept clicking on things by accident, just got a new phone 🙏)

The Birdo stuff was some of the most interesting to work on fr
