Just look at animemes banning the use of tr*p. Of course not every anime is misogynist but... there’s kinda a lot. And I think there’s a lot of blatant misogyny that is definitely noticed, and people who watch those scenes know it’s bad, but if you keep watching that shit over and over, even if you know it’s bad, it just get burned into your brain. But more importantly, a lot of anime just treats women as a whole differently than the male characters. Their drawn slightly differently, they act slightly differently, and they continue to be treated as objects, albeit in more subtle ways. On their own or in a bubble these grievances wouldn’t be a big deal, but it does add up. Idk, shit just sucks and it makes it hard to get into shows I would really like otherwise...

Attack on Titan and One Punch Man are two of the most wildly successful anime of the previous decade and imo what has been animated of them (I haven't read the manga) is pretty good on terms of gender equality. It kinda gives me hope that in the future all the dumb sexualizing trends will die out. That said, the classics will always exist, and people are always gonna be watching Evangelion showing nude 14 year olds and wanting more

Titan is great, im so excited for this last season. It def doesnt have as terrible politics compared to a lot of anime/media in general (big exception being i get some weird kind of "bloodline"/nationstate themes tho that kind of remind me of zionism and the like, anyone else?). not quite as problematic as some of the other stuff ive seen here like deathnote, which i enjoyed enough, great premise, but theres obviouslly a lot of issues with women,etc and especially the whole tough on crime aspect.
