    It feels so hard to stay away from anime like that these days. I honestly feel like the majority of modern anime would be better if it didn’t have any female characters in it at all.

      It’s always been like that, but I don’t think the solution is to remove all women from anime…

      While there are some anime where it could be true there’s also lots of anime where it isn’t.

      Also world without women in the story would feel weird. It needs a balance and good written characters. I won’t mind sexy girl fan service when it fits the anime / story.

        I’m talking about the anime where the girls don’t provide anything else, it’s usually more an issue for shounen anime than anything, but slice of life often has this trouble too.

        I’m also not saying all anime. But there’s a disturbing amount of anime that doesn’t have female characters, just boobs and asses that want to marry the Mc or call him a pervert.

        I wouldn’t remove the female characters from like Inuyasha or Rurouni Kenshin, but i would from Mashle magic and muscle because… the one female character does nothing in the whole show lol.

      Go watch Frieren and see what a good anime that uses women as actual characters looks like
