    • @elitefencer777
      @elitefencer777 4 года назад +92

      Thanks, I didn't know that. It makes the beginning of the confrontation really interesting then: like the 1st draft was for the revelation to be: "Naoto has a childish view of what it means to work in/alongside law enforcement and the motivations of the people who do," and then the final draft was: "Most of that is still true, which is within Naoto's ability to control, but it's compounded by the 'just-barely-unspoken' sexism in law enforcement generally and Japan in particular, which is outside of Naoto's control." It's hard to say which is ultimately more apropos to the story's central theme of "How People View Themselves is Influence by How Their Society Views Them, Even When They Factually Know Better," as the Male Naoto could have turned into a brutal takedown of the shota stories that make up the bulk of Pop Japanese Fiction. On the other hand, Female Naoto addresses the more subtle nuances of sexism that have no easy resolutions. Laws and oversight don't necessarily correct people's preconceived biases, especially when they're reinforced by such thorough idolization of certain archetypes. Naoto's shadow even tells her that none of her personal heroes, at least within her desired profession, are women.

    Naoto's shadow is unique from other shadows in the way that it is almost entirely reasonable. Besides the fact that the shadow is brutally confrontational, they speak as equals.
    "There's no avoiding first principles. Admit that you're a child, and admit that there's nothing you can do about it."
    ...thats not unreasonable. Naoto is 15. The shadow very pointedly tells her what she needs to change, and is fair about it.
    "They made you cry, didnt they? Yet here you are, mimicking those same men. What exactly are you trying to justify?"
    She's right. Mimicking the jerks that marginalised her wont give her what she wants: Acceptance.
    The body-modification idea and taunting her because of her own childish tendencies to justify isolation are a bit extreme, but otherwise, even Naoto's most negative aspect is looking for solutions, as opposed to solely validation like the other shadows.

      +Gibus Edgeless Shirogane's shadow was always my favourite. All members of the investigation team have multiple, deeply rooted problems, but only shadow Shirogane truly displayed this in my opinion, cleverly behaving less like one and more like two to capture more of Shirogane. It switches between who she perceives herself to be to who she desires to be, helping to capture exactly who she is and how she feels. The secret base themed area also helps a great deal, not only capturing the whole "You're only a child," thing but also in a way symbolising how secretive she is about this whole thing, and that's brilliant in my opinion. I'm sure the others did a good job too, but this is the best I've seen so far.

    I also like how this scene sort of confirms that to an extent, somebody doesn't have to specifically say "You're not me" in order for a Shadow to take it's true form. Chie calls out to try to prevent Naoto from saying that, but even then she already believes it fully and that's enough for Naoto's Shadow to fully take form.

      I feel like that's because Naoto herself is probably quite aware of her shadow, probably a good long while before this encounter. Therefore, she's probably quite used to it and knows how to at the very least get it to shut up. But when a bunch of people that are strangers to you, are suddenly exposed to that side of you, it would freak anyone out.

    Just as Kanji represents ambiguous sexuality/bisexuality, Naoto represents ambiguous gender. The thing about both of them is that it doesn’t matter what box you put them in or label them, they are what they are. Does Kanji’s sexuality change whether Naoto is male or female? No...because she’s ambiguous. It just means Kanji likes people who look and act like Naoto does lol which is both male and female at the same time. It’s very complex...and very compelling

    • @1aundulxaldin

    • @bluebird1914
      @bluebird1914 3 года назад +7

      While I agree with Kanji's sexuality being ambiguous, you do realize that Naoto's whole deal wasn't that she wants to be a man, or identifies as one. But rather, that she pretends to be one because that's the only way she is able to succeed in her workplace. Therefore, making Naoto an actual man would change her entire arc.

    • @Runeless
      @Runeless 3 года назад +7

      ​@@bluebird1914 Maybe I didn't make that clear, but yes, that's what I was trying to say. Naoto's story arc is about the physical expression of gender, a different discussion from Kanji's, but their stories influence each other. Naoto's arc was not about sexual attraction or inner confusion, but rather about being seen for her keen mind, and, to that end, floats between the binaries of male and female (which makes her ambiguous, because on first glance you would accept her as either male or female). Kanji represented sexual ambiguity (attraction) and Naoto represented ambiguous gender (which is entirely about outer appearance and presentation, not the inner self). TLDR I think we're on the same page :D

    I was waiting for this confrontation. I wanted to see how a highly intelligent person talks to their shadow. It's great the shadow is just as intelligent as Naoto herself. I thought that Naoto wouldn't immediately fall for emotional manipulation, and she doesn't at first. But the shadow, having equal intellect, knows how to build a case, how to build an argument and use that to tear down Naoto's logic so that she can get to the heart of the matter and get Naoto to reject her.
