I actually really like that Gaara's just a single dad with his son in Boruto. You've got a character who's main arc has been about the pursuit of love and connections with others and not have him end up with someone romantically. Because love doesn't always have to be romantic and we don't always have to believe that our connections HAVE to come from certain people. Then, there's the fact that he himself is forming those connections and that love for his son so he never has to feel that emotional depravation. It's just so beautiful man. 🥹
Yeah, and his female characters are some of the best in shonen jump in my opinion. The mothers aren't treated as just mothers. They're allowed to have personality and backstory. Otohime, Portgas D. Rouge and Bellemere are examples of this.
As much as I love JJK, Megumi's mom doesn't have anything to her character besides being the person who just so happened to give birth to Megumi and I think this lack of confidence in writing women is reflected in how much there is to be desired with his other female characters.
Likewise, as flawed as Naruto is with its female characters Kushina IS allowed to have a personality and be more than just a wife and a mother.
There's obviously nothing wrong with having a female character that's tied to motherhood and is nurturing but when that character isn't even given a name in the text of the story and isn't able to be seen as anything but a mother what exactly are we supposed to take away from that?
I feel like you can tell a lot about how an author views their female characters based on whether or not they give dead mothers a name.
Nooooo that's so sad I'm literally crying 😢
What if we just switched Mei Mei and Nanami?
Would’ve loved to watch her blow up while Nanami’s reading some books safely in Malaysia like he deserves.
Please Don’t Turn Blind Eye To Our lives, Our Hope Begins with You
Hello, I'm Ola, a graduate student from the faculty of science - Al-Azhar University in Gaza Palestine. I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story. As you reading my message, myself and my family, “my mother, father, three sisters, and my little brother,” are fighting death in northern Gaza and trying to survive under all kinds of suffering including but not limited to destruction, fear, and instability, starvation, thirst, and poverty.
Since 471 days until now, we have been struggling to get proper food after prices increased by 15 to 20 times, struggling to have clean water for use and drinking.
After a long and tiring effort, my Tumblr account @olasfamily has been disabled, and I have to start over. I feel sad and lost, but I don’t want to face this journey alone. I kindly ask you to share and support us; every donation and every share means a lot to me in this difficult time. Please don’t leave me to face this challenge on my own.
I am writing to you as we struggle through very difficult conditions with winter approaching. The cold is becoming harsher by the day, and we lack the warm clothing needed to endure this freezing weather. We cannot afford to buy new clothes due to the steep rise in prices, and most of what we have is old and worn out.
We are longing to rebuild our shattered lives, and I can't do it without you. I need your support to complete my education and help my family rise from the ruins and find hope again.
You mean the world to us, now more than ever. Please, don’t let us down 💔
Please share and donate 🙏💔

Mfs when a mental ILLNESS is a detriment to someone's health and not a quirky character trait: 😮😲🤯
Yusuke being a rough and tumble delinquent kid while also having the biggest, prettiest, roundest, and brightest eyes ever is everything to me.
something possessed Gege the day he decided to draw Haruta with that fucking ponytail and idk what it was but he cooked
Toji Fushiguro and the consequences he's inflicted on my brain cannot be understated. I love him so much. I want to shove him down the stairs.
Respect to everyone who has actual good interesting reasons for shipping two characters cause my reasoning never goes beyond "They're messy." or "It'd be hot if these two would kiss."
