Nah wait I see what you mean.

I always thought of Nauruto as DBZ with ninja's and One Piece as DBZ with pirates.

Seen all 3 and they're obviously diverse.

But if I insulted like half of the people in this topic they would go off on me and my (non-existant) reputation.

i never watch video game youtube channels (seems kindve dumb, ive already played the game why would i want to see someone else play it) and only seen some of smosh's stuff if it was like on the front page. never really thought any of them were that funny.

ModernWarBro, although he does reviews more than gameplays.

And Dashiegames if you don't mind him being the most oblivious gamer ever.

In the guidebook or whatever it said we couldn't wear colored laces as they promoted gang violence.

A response less superficial than the other video posted a few pages back.

brings up some irrefutable points as well.

I dont remember mario or luigi or the double dragon dudes having much of a personality either.

Should we just look at them as silent button responders while we're at it? I'm sure if the males in video games like these were given actual character development the female side sure as hell would too.

Neither the knight in shining armor or the princess are really talkative and they don't have alot of cutscenes to boot.

I agree with you that feminism isn't a laughable cause, but I totally disagree on the Damsel in Distress trope.

Many people are captured in video games and we go and rescue them. Whether they are men or women, someone wants them to be saved and the prisoner wants to get the forget out of there. These quests frequent in nearly every RPG and are totally platonic experiences.

I would consider those to be better examples of objects rather than who the character focuses directly on saving. It's more meaninful because this dude is fighting tooth and nail for the girl because literally no one else can.

Those nameless pokemon that I have to get in mystery dungeon for an item are the objects.

Sora trying to rescue Kairi wasn't. She and Riku were the literal goals of the game. They ended once you got them because whether the player cared or not, Sora was doing it for them. Along with mario and the other examples of this trope.

The vid brings up a point that can be argued.

Who in the world would not go after the princess, regardless of whether she can defend herself or not.

It's even proved in many movies and shows that no matter how strong the prisoner is in any given situation, he or she can't do it alone.

Samurai 7
Samurai Champloo
Tower of Druaga
Tiger and Bunny (it's about superheroes though)

You can watch Sword of the Stranger. it's a pretty decent movie.
