Paul-Félix Armand-Delille (3 July 1874 – 4 September 1963) was a French physician, bacteriologist, professor, and member of the French Academy of Medicine. He is best known for attempting to protect his crop from rabbits by releasing a pair of rabbits infected with Myxoma virus on to his farm in northern France.[1] The spread of the vira lead to a plague of myxomatosis that caused the collapse of rabbit populations throughout much of Europe and beyond in the 1950s.[2]
Within a year of the initial release, an estimated 45% of the wild rabbits in France had died of the disease, along with 35% of domestic rabbits, and the disease subsequently spread to the rest of western Europe, destroying rabbit populations in the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Germany, Britain, and beyond.[8]
It's more likely a reference to the Philadelphia Eagles wearing dog masks in 2017.
You're right. Mike Vick was #7. Currently #90 is Jordan Davis and #17 is Nakobe Dean. Funnily enough, they both played in college on the Georgia Bulldogs, and Jordan Davis, whose jersey Fuwawa is wearing, is known for being very big, while Nakobe Dean is considered small for his position. I wonder how much of this was intentional.
Well I meant she wasn't forced into it by an outside force. Poor choice of words on my part. Her choice was openly identifying as a girl, rather than continuing to identify as male out of fear of what that choice means for herself and everything she did for her village.
Except Bridget's entire story was proving the village's superstition was wrong. Bridget was forced to identify as a girl because of a believed curse that twin boys or twin girls are a bad omen, so instead of killing one, his parently lied and said it was mixed twins.
Okay then, why can't Bridgette be an otokonoko with she/her pronouns. I know Japanese does not have pronouns, and that there is a certain nuance to speaking patterns that are indicative of the character beyond their gender (eg speaking like a noble, overly polite, etc). Why does she have to be a transgender in western eyes, when she was made in Japan, and follows their otaku line of thought that she is an otokonoko? Why are you culturally appropriating her?
I don't mind if Vivian is trans or not in a kid's game. I mean, I agree with you that kids are exposed to genderbending shenanigans often. I also think it would be cool if Mario went on a side quest fulfilled Vivian's wish in of itself and showed her sisters whose boss. Wouldn't that be a good moral that for trans audiences that the hero of the story showed care, and actually went on a quest to affirm a representative character's story? I am just disappointed we are having this kind of argument in the context of a kid's game. Like, imagine doing this IRL in front of kids who just want to play Paper Mario, just cuz their parents are having nostalgia and want to share the joy.
You know there are transgender people in Japan, right?

Not really. There are gay people in Japan. There are crossdressers in Japan there are effeminate men in japan. There are *not* trans people in japan. "Trans" are seen as people suffering from a mental disorder, as everyone in the world saw, until it was randomly changed in 2015.

Yeah, they are referred to newhalfs over there. But did you know Otokonoko are real people too? Although its origins come from anime, as a result of the progressive culture in Akihabara, it became normalized there. I'll say it again, it's not just a fetishized hentai tag some people make it be. It is an actual concept of identity over there.
Having said that, for the love of Japanese culture, please let them develop their LGBTQ+ their own way. Or what, are you seriously going to waltz into a soapland in Japan and harass a sex worker there "You're not an otokonoko! You are trans!!!" even though they work hand-in-hand with actual trans women?
