Anyways without text

A remark I often made was that Frankenstein was "nothing like Psychocuties", though I was mostly teasing. A bit of snark goes a long way when analyzing text, especially when looking at author's intent. A recent conversation, though, brought me to a sudden realization about the text.

Frankenstein is just as much a story about the problems of men in particular.

In Psychocuties, the Doctor steals pieces of kittens and sews her together into a sort of girlfriend/pet/assistant named Ushka. Ushka is never allowed to leave the house, and is frequently abused in both physical and emotional senses. While it might be too early in the series to know the Doctor's motivations, we do know of a connection to Victor's backstory from Masacrik.

Masacrik's father, though he behaves as more of a classic trafficker, represents the womanizing tendencies of Victor's father. He owns many, many women all with barcodes tattooed on their necks, frequently parading them around as arm candy. One of them is implied to be Masacrik's mother, on which the very first Ushka-adjacent experiments were done. Though it's a heavy overexaggeration of the source material, it's still founded in it. After all, Father Frankenstein married his dead friend's young daughter, a sin that Victor holds against him to this day.

Instilled within Masacrik is a complete disregard for human life, especially for women. This especially factors in when the change is made for his monster to be his girlfriend instead of offspring. Perhaps there's something to be said there about the predatory nature of men, how they expect their ideal girlfriend to look like and behave like children. How they expect dependence, obedience, more like a pet. And all of that is equally applicable to Psychocuties, but it really isn't all that far from actual Frankenstein.

In his tragic despair, the monster seeks the sympathy he'd been denied by humanity. The monster feels he is entitled to a woman, his second half, for the suffering he had undergone by living life. He thinks that a woman will solve all his problems. Though he desires companionship, he does not think of this hypothetical woman as a person and does not consider her wants or needs. He takes as little responsibility in requesting this ideal woman's existence that Victor did in creating him. The monster is so lost in his own ideal vision of this woman that he doesn't even perceive her as a being equal to him. She is both placed on a pedestal in her role and lesser than him in sentience.

So, when Masacrik creates his own monster (Ushka), he is both doctor and monster. Similarly to in actual Frankenstein, he takes the trauma bestowed upon him from his father and lets it evolve into another form. As such, he ends up being irresponsible in creating life and re-molds a sickly girl into his own ideal fantasy. So much more can be said about Ushka and how Masacrik's relationship to her is symbolic of actual methods of abuse. It all comes from a basis of Frankenstein.
