The image of a dragon is a dragon...

honestly. There are problems enough in the world without having to deal with how people perceive story characters ought to be treated. Then why are you inserting yourself into just such a discussion with, apparently, the sole reason of insulting everyone here? But today, I'm feeling like Natani's w...

A bunch of stuff they wanted me to respond to. A bunch of stuff they wanted me to respond to. I had to focus on life for a while, and this whole thing left me feeling very cold. But for a much briefer clarification: I don't think that Natani is programmed to be 'what Zen wants Natani to be' or prog...

I would caution against being one of those people who gets disappointed because the story isn't what you thought it'd be. I haven't seen a single person on here doing that this thread. We're discussing the quality of the craftsmanship in attempting to achieve a certain vision. Before this sequence ...

You seem to be making one serious assumption: Everything Young Natani says overrides everything Adult Natani has said or done. It doesn't. Yes. Yes, because the revelation Young!Natani has just revealed is that Natani does not remember something that would be a major part of her life and a part of ...

So of course I'll abide by your request to do what I already said I was going to do. Seems a bit redundant. I'm sorry I overlooked your statement to that effect. I appreciate that you are already going to hold yourself to that request, before it was made. Thank you. Thank you for recognizing it. Th...

Natani has never been stuck in his own mind with himself to this level in all the comic. This has not arrived out of nothing. Every time Natani has entered the mindscape Zen's been waiting there to consult with. It is his absence with the complete collapse of the mind link that has prompted this me...

I must be the only one seriously disappointed by this page. And not for anything directly related to gender identity whatsoever. I'm like, "Wait... what? Retcon stereotype #4 again? really?" I've seen this in so many American superhero comics that this kind of reveal is just a huge eyeroll...

Yet you all seem to be crating an environment that many of us are repelled by. Indeed, it often feels wrong to post between you all to talk about the page rather than get pulled into your debate. Example: I've been wanting to remark on how cute "pup" Natani and Zen in the last panel are, ...

I find it difficult to understand why any would squabble over this topic to begin with. First: read my signature. Second: Because it represents real-life situations and philosophies which are rather important to the central life topic of quite a few people. The nature of how people react to real-li...

That's funny, you responded to them. (Very unconvincingly imho - but then opinions are cheap, and apparently you didn't think much of my arguments either.) And yet somehow you didn't notice them and still can't find them. I have twice asked you to clarify, and you have twice refused to clarify on t...

Canonically, the statement we have is that Natani's original gender was ripped away and destroyed . Which does not fit my understanding of "has" at all. Are you asserting that Natani was lying/mistaken? And word of god has also stated that those missing parts have grown back and hasn't ne...

Looking at what I wrote, this does seem quite clear to me... but since I assume you're not deliberately misinterpreting me, I must be mistaken. I am somewhat accustomed to being perhaps too brief, especially when addressing avwolf, who knows my broader positions well enough that I'd almost trust hi...

There is no such implication at all. What is fairly clearly depicted is that at the moment of the link, Natani rejected that notion with such force that it helped cement -- possibly even completely caused -- a change in gender identity just to get away from the idea . I think that all the way from ...

I love this viewpoint - that her own 'women are weak' was enhanced by something not at all bad - 'Protecting my little sister'. It frustrates me when I read through the comments and see people totally taking that to the illogical conclusion - that Zen is sexist or somehow looking down on her. This i...
