it's not that men can't express emotion but that they're discouraged from expressing emotions deemed "feminine", associating femininity with weakness. I feel like people forget it's all Woman Bad at the end of the day

No manga will ever match this in scope or in beauty of storytelling. The way it wove together two worlds, completely developed the moon world and its characters, made us care about not just past but present lives and drew distinctions between them – the way it made villainous characters sympathetic and sympathetic characters treacherous – the way it created science, religion and genetics around its ESP, instead of just having ESP for the sake of having it – and the way it lovingly wrapped its arms around plot points dropped 20 volumes ago and drew them forward into a perfectly parallel story arc, the way it made me catch my breath and realize all of this, all 21 volumes of it, must have been planned from the beginning – to this day it amazes me.
I was actually determined to translate/scanslate this manga before anyone “legit” got their hands on it, because there are certain lines spoken in Volumes 1 and 2 that could be translated multiple ways, and if you didn’t translate them correctly in Volume 1, when you got to Volume 21 and they were revisited, they wouldn’t make sense. Sadly, I only got through Volume 3… all the scanslations sit on my hard drive still, pages flipped and lovingly photoshopped (because this was before the days of the right-to-left English manga) to preserve as much of the original art as possible.

I hope we see her again :(
a decade later and the way people talk about fictional women and girls is very. Fucked. The only way they’re compelling to most is 1) she girl bosses in a way that doesn’t obstruct their male faves 2) her motivations aren’t male centric (which, hard agree) but then they dismiss her complexities in the same breath BECAUSE all they focus on is her connections to men. there’s definitely a double standard bc men can obsess over men and not be questioned lmao
