Unfortunate Implications/Anime and Manga: Difference between revisions

** One of the criticisms of Masashi Kishimoto has been the tendency for female characters to end up being [[The Load]] or get tossed the [[Distress Ball]] frequently. Even long-time fans who can otherwise ignore some of the clunkier aspects of the series tend to roll their eyes at this tendency.

** In chapter 347, Konohamaru performs a variation of the Sexy Jutsu with two naked girls holding each other suggestively. Sakura punches Konohamaru for being a pervert and after Naruto tries to explain that it would serve as a distraction, she says "You're the only idiots who'd fall for a jutsu like that!". Konohamaru then decides to try the same jutsu again, but this time with shadow clones of Sai and Sasuke. Sakura has a perverted reaction to it. This was made instantly uncomfortable when the latter part of this scene wasn't include in the anime.

** A male crossdresser that everyone assumes is a lesbian is called a pervert for pursuing a female character, told by a girl trying to be friendly that they need to focus on finding someone normal (i.e. a boy) for 'her', and wooed by a male character to try to 'set her on the correct path'.

** Don't forget the first time lesbianism was hinted at; in the Full Body Cat's Tongue arc, Shampoo replies to Akane's questions as to why she'd tell Ranma about the cure for him/her being stuck as a girl by declaring she loves Ranma as a boy, then asks if Akane maybe prefers Ranma as a girl, with Akane angrily screaming she is not when Shampoo confirms that she is indeed calling Akane a "pervert" if this is true.
