Forum:Feminism in Bleach

More like a question, is there really feminism in Bleach? I've heard time and time again from female fans, that they're disappointed how girls almost never win any fights, annoyed or frustrated at Momo's devotion to Aizen and Orihime's "weak-will", and so on. This true? Krone8 21:50, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

for the most part.--ZACH 22:52, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

I'd class Yoruichi as a case against that argument. Unohana would fit if she lives up to her billing, and maybe Soifon too. TomServo101 (Talk)  23:06, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah...Yoruichi really is a first class example of a strong woman. Soifon too. But Unohana is too much a cipher for me to classify her as some feminist ideal. She doesn't really do anything but maintain her hospitals and heal the sick...worthy roles in themselves but not what I think the opening post intended. Outside of the captains you have Rangiku. I know she comes off as a oversexed bubblehead but she is a strong personality willing and able to fight on the front line and actually commands when she has too.

Really the only other one I can think of as a strong woman feminist archetype is Tatsuki. No power to speak of but she never relents in protecting friends or expecting others to live up to her standards. Great Cthulhu 06:44, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
