Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Dragon Ball Z: Wrath of the Dragon is essentially free of forced representation or emphasis on identity politics. Characters are defined by personality, skill, and classic heroics rather than any overt diversity checklist. The story is straightforward, focusing on action and adventure above all.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

This film presents traditional family bonds, heroism, and even masculinity in a positive light. There is no effort to undermine or subvert these ideas. Religion, folklore, or morality are handled in a neutral, fantasy-adventure manner that doesn’t pander to modern sensibilities.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints aren’t mocked, but the film simply doesn’t pursue ideology in any direction, woke or otherwise. Any moralizing is universal rather than pushing contemporary issues, leaving ideological monoculture virtually absent.
