A bunch of autistic magical girls/people have to take down Doctor Ableism who runs a company called ASD Speeches that wants to demonize them.
The protagonist is a 17 year old autistic girl with, surprise, pink hair who, surprise surprise, gets bullied and when she tries to tell the school staff, they don’t help her; in fact they BLAME her for getting bullied because that DOES happen to autistic people sometimes. She also has a Special Ed teacher that makes her life hell by infantilizing her and the others constantly. She also has hyperempathy, so when the teacher yells at one of the students who is having a meltdown, she gets super angry and nearly screams at the teacher.
So then one day, after a particularly difficult day, she’s walking home from school and finds, surprise, a magic wand. On the top of it is a rainbow mobius. She picks it up and transforms into Princess Autisma (or Sailor), who instead of having pink hair, has purple hair. She’ll probably also get a cute little pixie sidekick. She’s deemed the leader, but when she finds the rest of the group, she wants them to be seen as equals.
So she gathers together the other four or five magical girls, and each one has a cool name and special ability.
Anyone good at drawing and/or animating anime? I honestly think we should get together and make this a thing. I call voicing the protagonist. It could kick off my voice acting career AND give us some good and varied canon representation.
Also things I wanna have in the anime:
(after the protagonist first transforms): Why is the skirt so short? Why is the shirt so low-cut? Even if I agreed to this, I don’t wanna wear this suit. It doesn’t have any functionality at all! Plus what kind of hell-made material is this made of? It feels like demons pricking every spot on my arms! Get me out of this right now. I feel like I’m gonna have a meltdown!
-An extraverted and popular autistic girl who becomes part of the team, but is insecure about fighting. But because she’s extraverted, she is the go-to gal if they need someone to infiltrate a neurotypical social setting.
-An autistic girl who was AMAB who is shunned because she has hypo empathy, but she finds out one of her greatest strengths lies in helping to calm down and bring the team together during arguments.
-An autistic NB who is constantly being told that they can’t be non binary because they’re autistic and don’t know what they are which causes them to feel insecure, but feels much better once they realize that because they don’t associate with the gender binary, they’re
1. Able to customize their own costume because they don’t feel comfortable wearing a skirt.
2. Are safe from being kidnapped as damsels-in-distress because they don’t identify as female.
-An autistic girl of color who is told she can’t be autistic because she’s a person of color, and she feels isolated on the team because of this as well as the stereotypes placed on both of her identities, but she’s the most scientifically-intelligent as well as one of the most compassionate members of the team.
-An autistic girl who is nonverbal and high-support, meaning people constantly underestimate her, but the autistic girl of color creates a necklace that allows her to simply think of what she wants to say and the necklace will verbalize it for her. Against the insistence of her school advisor, she signs up for some normal-level classes, but also quite a few advanced and AP classes in subjects she KNOWS she’s good at AND that she is extremely hyperfixated on. She also becomes the valedictorian of the high school class and graduates with honors because her being on the team helped her to feel more confident and made her be able to use that underestimation as fuel and drive to succeed.
I also want them to have other parts of their identity, like being trans or a person of color, identities you normally wouldn’t associate with autism, and maybe we could have a few of them be not straight. Maybe one of them could be pansexual (maybe the nonverbal girl?).
Types of episodes I might want:
-An episode that deals with autism in relation to sexuality and how often autistic people are desexualized by the media.
-An episode that talks about infantilization.
-An episode that talks about racism towards autistic people of color.
-An episode that takes on gender bias/transphobia towards autistic trans people.
-An episode that deals with sexism in terms of autism, because people seem to think girls can’t be autistic.
-An episode that takes on anti-vaxxers.
Like, I really think this should become a thing! I’m open to alterations and adjustments.
