In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Aban is practically a masterclass in prioritizing contemporary dogmas over storytelling. It leans hard into woke themes, sidelining traditional values and presenting little room for ideological variety. If you’re looking for a non-woke narrative, prepare for disappointment.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Aban's narrative appears heavily devoted to identity politics, with characters frequently defined more by social categories than by nuanced personality or traditional narrative motivations. Key plot points often pivot on overt messages, putting allegory ahead of authentic conflict or development. It feels like another case of message-first, story-second.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional views on family and gender are frequently subverted, often framed as relics of the past. The show repeatedly portrays legacy institutions, particularly religion and traditional masculinity, as obsolete or even harmful, all while celebrating revisionist models without much nuance.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives rarely get more than a strawman treatment. Any hint at dissent tends to be delivered by characters who are unsympathetic or simply clueless, making it clear which worldview is 'acceptable.' There’s little chance for actual debate or pluralism here.
