3/24/2023 0 Comments Corpse party seiko x naomiSecondly, “whatever its called” is still generally referred to as “lgbt” lol, but it’s important because good representation is needed in media, no matter the type or genre. in general its not explored with is understandable given the genre, but it wouldve been nice to have more context. thank you for participating in the discussion!Įdit to respond to your edit (?): yeah naomi could arguably also have feelings and just not know how to handle it, but the other is just implied more heavily. in a genre such as horror, since people are supposed to die, i think it can be really easy to cover up the trope with something like that, even if they couldve let at least one lgbt character live among say 2 or 3 other non lgbt. however, though at times few and far between, there were survivors. Thats a very fair point! corpse party was not a forgiving universe for anyone. someone said something similar before and this was my response: Yeah understandable, thanks for the reply. (im unsure how to tag spoilers in a reply if possible because im still a bit new to reddit, but spoilers!) she had a big crush on satoshi, and ended up getting decapitated while protecting yuka (if i recall correctly) but this can happen in a lot of shows, for instance (sorry i cant recall specifics atm), so that they can pull an audience in with things like a positive/decently developed character and queerbaiting, and kill off any possibility of an lgbt relationship ever happening, let alone just letting the character live without finding someone.īut yeah i absolutely understand how her “fate being sealed” was able to hurt everyone regardless just based on the strong bond they had, so as far as storytelling goes, it was a pretty good move.Īlso the trans character is miyu shinohara! i don’t remember what the manga she was in was called exactly. Valid point re: her personality! i was talking with others about how much i appreciated her character being so much more than a pervy girl in love with her bestie. (edited to not be a big wall of text/eyesore lmao) just curious to see others thoughts on this since i couldn’t find anything on google! no disrespect is intended :) i heard that in some of the other alt timelines there were other confirmed or implied lgbt characters that also suffered terrible fates.Īs much as i love/d the game/anime, i cant help but think that there may have been a lot of “bury your gays” at play, as well as fetishization of the lgbt community in general. i never really got into/followed much of the corpse party timeline aside from the main game/anime and that one sequel. buuuut found out (by by reading the wiki, not the manga) that the trans girl also ends up dying. I remembered hearing something about the manga having a trans girl in it (which was exciting! i love lgbt rep in all my genres and horror doesnt have a lot). but i also remember in that sequel game (book of shadows? maybe), even when you prevented seiko from suffering the same fate, she ended up dying anyway. i remember feeling so devastated by seikos death, and the ending to that absolutely destroyed me given how sweet it was. anyway i really connected with it/seiko in particular (for other reasons too, shes a great character). i do wonder if a lot of seiko/naomi was put in there to nod to the fetishization of lesbianism. being younger, however, i didnt really understand all of the fanservicey type of stuff. Long story short, im a lesbian who didnt even know for the longest time, and i think the seiko x naomi ship was one of the first wlw ships id ever seen. recently i was thinking about some of the stuff i used to watch from my past, and what it reflected about me before i even knew. Its been a long time since ive thought about this game/anime(/manga?) series.
