Magia Record (and general Madoka Magica)

In defense of Madoka Magica
Jun. 15th, 2023 03:58 pmWhen I was on TV Tropes, I unsuccessfully argued that Women are Weaker should be removed from the list of Omnipresent Tropes. The response was that anything that doesn’t use Women are Weaker is consciously defying the expectation of it. I tried to explain that something like Buffy the Vampire Slayer does that, but Madoka Magica operates within a space where it’s never even considered that women might be weaker.
