What We Think

Dragon Ball Z: Super Android 13! is refreshingly non-woke, brimming with over-the-top action and straightforward values. No heavy-handed messaging, no forced diversity, just anime mayhem as it was meant to be.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This film focuses almost exclusively on action and classic Dragon Ball Z themes. Characters’ traits are based on established personality, power, and motivation, not modern diversity checklists. Forced representation and identity politics are nowhere to be seen. If anything, it’s pure ‘90s anime brawn and banter.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Family, heroism, perseverance, and traditional roles are celebrated without mockery, and masculinity is central (sometimes almost hilariously so). There's no flipping of gender roles, cultural traditions, or awkward social messaging.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The movie largely sidesteps Western political or ideological issues. Worldviews are simple, the good guys protect, bad guys attack. There’s no attempt to turn traditional values into caricatures or force any kind of modern ideological conformity onto the cast.
