What We Think

Cagaster of an Insect Cage sticks to telling a gritty, character-driven dystopian story without obvious “woke” trappings. Identity politics are practically non-existent, delivering refreshingly non-woke entertainment.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The show prioritizes its dystopian story and character arcs over any overt identity-driven agendas. Characters are written with flaws and skills that drive the plot, not their demographic backgrounds. Forced representation and hyper-competence are not present, survival and human drama take the lead.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional themes like family, sacrifice, and responsibility are at the core, with no obvious subversion of masculinity, gender roles, or moral values. The anime avoids rewriting culture or history for ideology and instead leans on universal human struggles.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative views and pluralism exist in motivations and worldviews among characters. There’s no overt caricaturing or mockery of tradition or dissent. The focus is on survival and ethical complexity, not modern identity politics or a single prevailing viewpoint.
