ishouldgetatumbler replied to your post “due to spending WAY too much time in a hospital in the last few weeks…”

I joke a lot about one piece being bad but at it’s heart it is a story of love and freedom and revolution and it’s a pretty inexorable part of me.

what really surprised me is how tightly woven those threads are, even from the beginning. all the way back when alvida was the first villain, through the Big Punch-Em-Up Explosions that are happening in the new world, some (katakuri) better than others (doflamingo). the narrative sprawls and the individual arcs have shenanigans, and characterization can get kinda wobbly, but thematically (and maybe even meta plot-wise) it’s been solid since day one. and you can find fascinating comparisons between character arcs: robin and ace and their question about if they should have been born (can throw sanji in here too), nami and jimbei’s connections to fishmen, chopper and franky living up to dead father figures and embracing monstrosity in their humanity, luffy and everyone else–

it’s good. and it’s been good to think with. more important to me right now, it’s been good to hope with.

What do you think of the stereotype that all asians are smart?

It is very harmful due to the following reasons:

There is a lot of pressure within the Asian community for Asian children to do well academically and this stereotype just intensifies the need to do well outside of the Asian community.

If an Asian child is having difficulty at school then it is assumed they are being lazy. This needs to stop! Some Asian children have learning difficulties and instead of pinpointing the difficulties the Asian children are deemed as lazy because they are not living up to the “smart Asian” stereotype.

If there is a sudden drop in the academic performance/ attendance of an Asian child at school then people say “they don’t care anymore” when in reality it may be due to personal issues/ depression/ anxiety/ anorexia and many other mental issues.

If an Asian person does do well on an Exam, then their achievement is brushed off as “well you’re Asian so it’s normal”. This actually lowers self esteem and self worth, I can tell you this from personal experience.

Ultimately, the “Asian kids are smart” stereotype hinders society from viewing Asian children as capable of having disabilities; as capable of having a mental illnesses: as capable of being an individual person rather than some foolish stereotype.

It has a greater effect than some people think so think twice before you repeat it to another person.

and that is why it is the superior adaptation,,, staying true to the books and ALSO giving us some content that works perfectly through the medium of film..... 👀

Love how the 1995 adaption of Pride and Prejudice remained accurate to the book in almost every way but then just went: let’s add Colin Firth taking a bath, Colin Firth fencing, Colin Firth jumping into a lake, Colin Firth walking across a field in a wet shirt
