I fw Ninja Turtle dude too

JackPrice

It should also go without saying that societies views of this subject, on both sides, are backed up by years of gender related biases, and stereotypes. So it's a very difficult subject. Although I do agree that both men and women shouldn't have to be labelled as such when it comes to the way one views themselves like kendo does

michellethekitsune

Kendo isn't non binary as far as I know, the person probably got that opinion from some text in the light novel where she was calling gender norms limiting. She identifies as female she's just a tomboy so hates "girly" stuff being forced on her because of her gender. The quote is - "Society's label of what a 'woman' should be is too much. I just want to be 'me'. I'm sure men also feel the same way though, those who also don't consider themselves a 'woman' or a 'man' feel the same way too. Who the heck even decided to half-assedly categorize genders in the first place? "It's because you're a woman." "It's because you're a man." These labels are so annoying." It's possible me and many others are wrong in our interpretation but in the context of where it's said (In reference to girls fighting each other over a beauty contest), the reasoning behind what she said, the fact that she separates herself in the quote from people who don't identify as either gender and the character as a whole I just don't see it. Other people have already mentioned this a bunch and not so late after the reaction but wanted to give my thoughts to anyone potentially reading.

That is literally my favorite thing Tokoyami ever says

Tiger and Magne

Well, as long as isn't made clear that she is non-binary, I believe that she identifies as a girl. With Magne's case, she has always been referred to using she/her pronouns. Kendo has always been referred to using she/her pronouns by the other characters, and Kendo herself has never objected or said anything otherwise, not to mention that she presents herself wearing girl's clothing. I trust the author to give some kind of indication were she non-binary.

Aditya Chakrabarti

Watch the Op now also the openings from now, from my point of view don’t spoil much of the Arc your watching, not on less you super story plot guessing abilities so you should be safe watching them

RoyalArc7

You have to REALLY stretch to say Kendo is non-binary. She has never been called anything other than female in any official material, so until that changes, she is female. If you read the paragraph that this idea is coming from, it's clear that she's talking about society's expectations of how men and women should be, a.k.a. gender roles. She does mention people who don't identify as male or female, but the way it's worded implies that she doesn't consider herself one of them, just that she relates to the idea of wanting to be yourself.

Jay Redmond

Fun fact, Kamala Khan and Tony Stark have died the same number of times, despite Tony being introduced 50 years earlier than Kamala. Only counting main continuity comics, of course.

Jay Redmond

I'm excited for Alicia's rendition of the new OP. Gonna be beautiful

sweezid

And Invincible

SHOCK

I agree, but some years ago i found a reddit post with Berserk Redux, that takes the movies, and the 97 anime and tries to make a better picture of it.

Kevin

That is called The Boys

Xankoshu

Considering the mangaka is a huge western comic fan I'm not shocked. He split spiderman into both Tsu and Sero too

Shadowsofpain

if you scroll up people discuss it from the manga I think. the other comment with replies someone explained it for Kendo

aliciaxlife

Man, I want to watch Alicia's version of MHA, shit would be violent as hell XD

Joe Furry

"If I can save someone by moving then I have to move, right?" BARS! THAT'S THEM HERO BARS, DEKU! NEVER! STOP! SPITTIN'!! All here for the Edgy Era btw, the Attitude Era of channel! You know it just occurred to me that Kendo's big fiat quirk is a lot like the power set of current Ms. Marvel, Kamala Khan. Ms. Marvel has more versatile shape shifting buy she goes for the big fists a lot. And upon reflection, Tetsutetsu is just Colossus.

Bob

I just wish it had a better post-golden age adaptation, y'know? I would call Berserk one of the greatest stories ever made, even in its current state, and yet it seems cursed to never have an adaptation that does the manga justice. The '97 anime is great, but anything after that would have to be the manga and only the manga - and manga readings are tough to do proper react content for.

Ace of Blades

im pretty sure the pussycats muskly dude is transmasc and the magnet girl is transfem (forgot the names)

Potato

If you want something brutal and gory...you could join us strugglers. Watch Berserk You will get a memory for life. As it is one of the greatest fantasy stories, which inspired ALOT of gaming, and other manga/anime

Kevin

The gun reveal also got me really good back then in the manga xD

Sven Hegenbart

Revelry in the dark.

Sam Smith

Kendo isn't non-binary, but both Magne and Tiger are confirmed trans.

CrankyNoBrim

I don't think that Kendo is non-binary. I haven't seen anything that suggests that she is (I'm caught up with the anime and even double-checked in the fandom page).

Aditya Chakrabarti

i love the fact that tokoyomi just gives the scariest scream and then the cutesy ass end music plays

Yan Daigon

Wait he can't own a gun in Japan ... That's illegal!

Chanfyr

"Y'all can fight and Kacchan's a target." Bakugo: Well it must be Christmas mornin' and no one told me! p.s. revelry in the dark

Darkendreign

See, this bloodlust for carnage is why I say you should check out something just purely sweet and wholesome with magical friendship ponies to recenter a bit.... then once your guard is down we can show you Fallout: Equestria. Also, you are far from the only person I've seen instantly think Muscular was Bakugo's dad. But damn do I love how quickly it establishes that each of the Villains here have their own reasons for what they do, Muscular is just a psycho that enjoys hurting people and wants any excuse he can to do it, Spinner is trying to follow in Stain's footprints of purging unworthy heroes to make society better. Mustard seems to just be some kid with an inferiority complex to rival Bakugo looking for an excuse to show those stupid, privileged brats from the prestigious school how pathetic they are, etc...

Seraphem

The Harry Dresden school of thought, everyone is ready for a Wizard to pull of some crazy magic, so they come prepared to deal with that.... very few expect a wizard to just pull out a .44 and start blasting.

Seraphem

Thanks for the episode

TrinitytheApostle

Oh cool! This is why I said feel free to correct me, because I thought Its possible I might have been missing something. Now i know more! Thanks Alicia and Pingo!

Booryanne

The info is unclear at best and comes from a light novel and can be interpreted many ways, either as Kendo’s rejection of misogynistic gender norms or as Kendo straight up being nonbinary, it’s all about how you choose to read it. Then again, this isn’t integral to Kendo’s character, and it’s not information you get anywhere in the anime. Don’t worry too much about it, im enby myself & I think no one would be seriously offended if you she/her kendo or call her a girl, or vice versa. It is unimportant to the plot and not super worthy of stressing over xD

pingo

The "forgettable dude" is a woman named magne. You can even here teenage mutant ninja turtle refer to her as "big sis magne"

Octavia Hutchens

Twice is such a cool dude

Ronix

I didn’t get them confused people were fighting about kendo in the comments so it’s why I remembered their name. The person was really passionate that they were right so I don’t know

aliciaxlife

I think I came across earlier episodes where commenters were mentioning transness. My guess is she probably got the characters they were referring to confused! 😄

Booryanne

Yeah I'm unsure where Alicia got that info I can't find any interview or volume release that mentions Kendo is NB

Shadowsofpain

lol such blood thirst Alica...

Michael Mavis

I always forget how cool this arc is, and I'm always happy to be reminded every time I revisit it. The anime production is really hitting stride at this point too.

Luffyiscool

Yeah anyone that doesn't have toughened skin can be potentially put down with a bullet

Shadowsofpain

Anyone feel free to correct me but i dont think kendo is nonbionary. You might be thinking of Tiger (trans man), or Big Sis Mag(trans Woman)! Either way, its very cool they are here!

Booryanne

After this episode you don't have to skip the openings anymore

Christopher Thomas

Honestly, a gun is the best secondary weapon for all quirk users. Yeah some can withstand it, but a vast majority have bullets being their main weakness

Alex

I think you should watch the op

Creep Knight

Don't let anyone give you shit for guessing that Muscular is related to Bakugo: I watched this show as it first aired, and that was a very common theory when he was first introduced. I suspect that they made him look similar to Bakugo on purpose: Baokugo's entire concept of being a hero is "strength and power"; making a villain like that (who also has strength similar to All Might) an obstacle for Deku is just a perfect way to show his growth. Especially when he was convinced during the Finals that it was impossible to fight All Might...and here he is fighting a villainous version of All Might because it's the only way to save an innocent kid. tldr: Deku cool

Liesmith

You know she likes Toga because she remembered her government name
