Demon Slayer’s commitment to empathy thoroughly impressed me from the beginning of the series. However, Nezuko’s infantilization, objectification, and silencing throughout the season makes me worried the series may fall into the same traps as its shounen predecessors and contemporaries. Tanjiro and Nezuko share the same trauma, but only one is allowed to speak it. The post [Feature] Who is Allowed to Speak Their Pain? Demon Slayer, empathy, and Nezuko appeared first on ANIME FEMINIST.
