thinking back to when i drew this yesterday and basically almost pissed myself laughing
I wish Summer and Morty could be allowed to coexist with the same amount of respect. It's either Morty's a dog or Summer's a petty bitch. LET THEM BE GOOD CHARACTERS TOGETHER HOLY SHIT IT SHOULD NOT BE THAT HARD
I already mentioned before that Summer is overhated. She's also heavily sexualized and I won't get into that...other than the fact that even the show thinks she's not attractive. Outside of creepy pervs like Pissmaster and that one guy from Unity's planet or forced incest fantasies like the second episode of the show...they hate her bro 😭 and that's just HER being HER no weirdos no forcing
[When Ethan dumped her for Tricia and when she wasn't taken by aliens because she wasn't deemed attractive, two examples]

it's my birthday in a couple weeks and I'm kinda not feelin it
Was Summer's character development actually worth it?
Summer went from a typical bratty teen to being one of the most important characters in the entire show. But the problem is that this wasn't a perfect transition. The largest issue I have with her character development is that it sidelines Morty by a good amount
It seems that the back-and-forth with Rick and his grandkids infects episodes that can otherwise boost both. GoTron does show that Summer is in the wrong for instigating Rick, but the way they treat Morty like shit is still unjustified.
It feels like whenever one sibling is the focus for Rick, the other isn't written well. They can sometimes be equally badly written when the focus is on Rick only (such as Childrick of Mort....where they're both stripped down to their stereotypes)
I feel like The Rickshank Rickdemption is the best showcase of both of them. I wanna see if any Morty fans agree, so feel free to reblog with your opinion. But I really like how we got to see Summer's side of the argument for bringing Rick home and how Morty argues against it and understands him well. Summer seems more focused on the effect he has to make life less boring, while Morty is more focused on how he makes everything around him turn to shit after a while. It shows how Summer really DOES want to have a more interesting life she can be involved in as well.
Outside of that, it feels like we don't get many good moments of them together past season 3. And I mean both of them having arcs and being relevant to the plot. Earlier episodes felt more like just going with the flow of the story - which isn't bad!
Auto Erotic Assimilation was a fun team-up between them both and again, we get to see that Summer hates boring, organized life
Think about it
If Rick favors Summer, it shows that he only wants to do what he wants and not be challenged. So he hasn't accepted Morty's personality and actions yet. This means he's regressing while Summer is ironically trying to progress. That further divides Morty!
I can go on longer, but in general...wow. I think that her development did cause Rick to fall behind
ONLY because I feel like they can't write women consistently without failing on other characters, let's make that clear
Why can't we have more of these two siblings in their own ways and also bring back Rick's cynical nature? I don't get why he didn't take advantage of both or grow as a person to accept both. The fact there's even a middle ground is REALLY weird
Anyways Morty fans give me your opinion because i feel like some Summer episodes lead to Morty being underwritten or sidelined. Otherwise I love how she developed ^_^
