Remember in Crooked Kingdom, Inej remembers being horrified by a marketing artistic depiction of Suli girls who were drawn in an extremely sexualized, fetishized way with the phrase “Rare Spices”? Well, the same way those Suli girls were objectified in that advertisement, Inej is clearly objectified in the new official art/cards. It makes me so saddened. Inej would not want to be depicted like this at all. Why couldn’t she be drawn as a pirate, as the Wraith, or in non-sexualized, traditional acrobatic clothes? Her entire trauma stems from her being fetishized as a girl from a racial and ethnic minority, and as the only girl from a racial minority out of the crows, she’s the only one drawn like this.
Okay I’m so glad I’m not the only person put off by this
