thinking about this post again. they don't have to be directly about it, subtext is a real thing to take into consideration here. artists who have strong opinions on it should be taken into account. i have pretty broad standards for what counts here, i'm just trying to figure out how accurate the post is generously

right off the bat we've got a bunch

  • patlabor (2 especially)
  • gate
  • gits sac 2nd gig
  • kyoukai senki
  • zipang
  • drifters
  • code geass
  • gundam seed
  • aot (iirc iseyama has opinions)
  • kantai collection (this level of nostalgia for ww2 military stuff definitely goes here)
  • space battleship yamato
  • universal century gundam (abstractly, if you take the read of zeon being close to 1 to 1 with imperial japan to be true)

i know there's way more on the tip of my tongue but i can't think of them rn. and if you could include any details on what makes you say it's about article 9 i'd appreciate that

        It's kind of a mess of a show, so anything feels like a stretch, but I think some of the "nation in pursuit of true passivism" bit is tangentially in conversation with Article 9.

        NGL I mostly wanted to post a picture of Relina's RBF lol
