emperor kuzco was clearly gay

detectivehole

hes 19, with unlimited power, and he ain’t got a gf. the only time we see him interact with any women his own age is when he’s rejecting like 7 of them rapid fire. he pretends to date pacha in a gag that lasts like 10 solid minutes. listen to me god damnit

Okay, but just in case anyone is coming to tumblr dot com for my hot takes on 20+ year old kids' movies: Kuzco super WAS gay (or at least coded as such) and of course, I didn't get it until I watched it as a gay grownup.

He is played obviously camp and dramatic, for a start, and there is the aforementioned "hate your hair/not likely/yikes yikes yikes/let me guess you have a great personality" summary dismissal of all his potential brides. Then he spends dinner asking Yzma about Kronk ("so he seems nice? He's what, in his late twenties?") and otherwise being slightly obsessed with him.

Then there is the whole Adventure of Doom with Pacha, him being ever huffy about the Kiss of Life, and then the restaurant gag where Kuzco takes to playing Pacha's fake wife and dressing up in ladies' clothing with great gusto (reinforced by the waitress' "bless you for coming out in public" remark when Pacha says they're on their honeymoon). Then when he is finally de-llamafied, we don't see him paired off with the obligatory girl from the lineup earlier, as might otherwise be expected in a Disney movie. Instead he is still single, but goes to found family it up with Pacha, Chica, Kronk, etc, which dare we remark is a very queer trope.

In short, I have no idea how a Disney movie with no white people (all the characters are Indigenous/people of color), a gay king, cross-dressing jokes, and the most offbeat plot of all time actually ever got made (can you imagine the Family Friendly Mouse doing that today? Let us also talk about Kronk because he is a brilliant deconstruction of both toxic masculinity and the musclebound henchman stereotype.) Other than that this was the Chaos Hour of animated movies in the late 90s/early 2000s, and yes.

So yes. There you have it. I will not be taking criticism at this time.

The unrivaled love i had for Kronk might have been a sign i was a lesbian all along

you know what? it’s been long enough i think we can admit that abc’s once upon a time was dumb as all shit and that’s why it fucks

the evil queen’s mom was the queen of hearts, and also the miller’s daughter from rumpelstiltskin. rumpelstiltskin is also the beast from beauty and the beast and peter pan’s son. his wife eloped with captain hook and his mom kidnapped his secondborn son with belle to use as a weapon against his daughter-in-law

there were four rapunzels- one who only appeared in one episode and then was never mentioned again, and then three from the final season- one of whom was mother gothel in disguise (who is also a nymph and had a scene identical to the prom scene in carrie), one of whom was lady tremaine, and the final of whom was alice in wonderland, captain hook’s daughter

hades fell in love with the wicked witch of the west and also was that guy from ally mcbeal and we were supposed to take that 100% seriously

maleficent got impregnated by a mystery man and laid an egg, out of which hatched a human baby. they went to find her dad and never showed up in the show again. we find out in the last episode that her dad was zorro and nothing else is mentioned of this

the frozen characters were all there, completely based on canon with no alterations like everyone else got, and nobody questioned this. cruella de vil was also there and now is probably fighting with king arthur over custody of hell

mérida was there for like a season and a half and not once did she ever get a costume change. they were at a funeral and you can see her bright bluegreen dress just. there

henry jumped on a lion in new york and gave a speech about how magic is real

at the end they crowned the evil queen empress of everything just bc

there was a musical episode

nothing in this show made sense and that’s why it’s fucking hilarious

whencartoonsruletheworld

HENRY HAD A LOVE INTEREST FROM CAMELOT AND IN HER FINAL APPEARANCE SHE RETCONS HER BACKSTORY AND SAYS HER DAD WAS FROM EARTH AND WE FIND OUT HER DAD WAS THE CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR’S COURT

WHICH IS NOT ONLY THE FUNNIEST RETCON IN HISTORY (funnier by the fact he does have the right name, meaning that this was planned and they just forgot to drop any foreshadowing) BUT IF YOU FOLLOW BOOKCANON IT MEANS THAT HER BIRTH NAME IS HELLO-CENTRAL

Seeing "realistic" fanart of anime characters

aromancy

You look me in the eyes and tell me this isn’t the single whitest character in any piece of media ever.

leorio-moved-deactivated2020022

Yes miss Usagi Tsukino who speaks Japanese and lives in Japan and goes to a Japanese school is somehow white

aromancy

But of course, nobody who immigrates to other countries ever adopts a more "local" name. My mistake, this blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl is clearly Japanese, born and raised.

Actually, it’s a very specific thing in Japanese drawn media.

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Mukokuseki

Mukokuseki (jp: 無国籍) is the deliberate lack of ethnic features included in the character design of Japanese fictional characters. It literally means "stateless" (i.e. "without nationality"), though the term relates to more abstract anime, and in this case, used hyperbolically.

In Japanese media, vibrant hair and eye colors are considered to be “interesting” and therefore are used without any intention of indicating their nationality or race. It’s simply meant to make the characters look neat and flashy and stand out. If a character ISN’T ethnically and racially Japanese, it’s almost always COMMENTED on in-series or a trivia note in their profile.

So Usagi Tsukino is drawn with blonde hair and blue eyes, but she’s intended to be a Japanese girl. Likewise, we have Ami with blue hair and Michiru with green hair.....but the only character with hair that is mentioned or treated as unusual is Makato, as wavy auburn hair is associated with delinquents. In the live action Adaption, everyone has dark hair and eyes with their transformations giving them the standard unusual hair colors.

But like I said, you can tell which characters are ACTUALLY intended to be White, because it will be commented on. They’ll make a point of the character being mixed-race or foreign, it will be a defining characteristic.
