"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanYou think Togepi in the first season of the Pokemon anime would count as an example? Being added in the middle of the season, generically cute, and exists as a reason to chop off Misty's arms and stunt her personality?
Edited by 216.99.32.43 ...Burn... Hide / Show RepliesCan you write it in a way that illustrates how Togepi is "an attempt to liven up an aging cast with a character the younger demographics can relate to", rather than it sounding like you're just complaining?
howabout we call it "(Character) Design Dissonant" since cousin oliver is to direct of a mention and is only the examples of a cute kid upsetting the character roster by playing into different fanbases.
Edited by Seguir They or she. Not a minor.Can... Can we possibly get a slightly less revolting page image here? Please?

It's a good thing our last name isn't Drew, because then you'd be Nancy Drew and I'd be Andrew Drew. -Andy Botwin
Can someone who's a "Gilmore Girls" fan offer up a better encapsulation of their Cousin Oliver character that isn't so revoltingly anti-STEM? Considering the dire lack of women involved in STEM fields, it seems unhealthily awful to cast aspersions on a female character for simply being enamored of math and science.
