fuck it. biscuit krueger is one of the best characters ever to do it. do you realise how rare a strong, self-motivated but supportive and nurturing older female character is in anime? in any kind of media? who's allowed to be tough, and eccentric, and crotchety, while still being more sane than most of the people around her? and beautiful without being objectified? and she's not a woman on her own, or only among other women - she works with and is actively respected by men, including a shithead sexist preteen boy (killua lol) with whom she builds up a genuine rapport and respect? have you ever seen women represented as teachers and mentors in such a way that they weren't caricatured, mocked or vilified? that their power was appreciated? hell, have you ever come across a WOMAN OVER 50 who's allowed to just be herself on tv? you don't know what we had with bisky. you don't know how many times when i have experienced genuine evil fucking irl misogyny which sincerely degraded my quality of life and made me want to give up everything, i've thought to myself Biscuit Krueger wouldn't want this. bisky would tell me to get up and show those bastards. biscuit krueger has done more for feminism than any anime character to date and i will not shut up about her
