And then read the graphic novel its based on. Its way gayer

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Read it on Tumblr. Can't get much gayer than that.

Yes. The book is for monster girls.

The movie is about monster girls, and I hated the ending so much

kpop demon hunters feels also for monster girls

[-] oftheair 3 points 2 months ago

We dunno, Nimona rejects being called a girl explicitly.

The dedication in the front of the book is "For all the monster girls out there, ND Stevenson".

Do they contradict themself? Very well, they contradict themself.

Yes! I enjoyed the film but I read the graphic novel first and enjoyed it more than the film.

Where can the physical version be bought worldwide?

[-] Denalduh@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I picked up a copy at my library. It was still really good but I ended up liking the changes that were made for the movie more than the graphic novel.

We are looking at it on bookshop.org and are dismayed to see the creator is deadnamed on the book and in the description.

:c

Is always the same shit.

Also I read the author did this

and The Fire Never Goes Out and the cocreator of Lumberjanes and was the showrunner for the award-winning Netflix series She-Ra and the Princesses of Power.

The Fire Never Goes Out, Lumberjanes: I need to check them.

I read in the wikipedia that the author started to use only masc pronouns after 2021.

[-] oftheair 1 points 2 months ago

He/Him isn't inherently masc, like She/Her isn't inherently femme

[-] echedeylr 1 points 2 months ago

I was reading and comparing the use of textual info in the book references and how he identifies with something.

The author considers himself transmasc but not entirely male.

And the book only mentions pronouns and such as well as his new name.

[-] oftheair 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Okay, we understand on an invidual level. We just have a dislike for calling he/him masc or she/her femme on a societal/global level since pronouns are not inherently gendered.
