What We Think

"My First Girlfriend is a Gal" is one of the least woke recent anime comedies. Expect classic, trope-filled teen romance hijinks with no obvious concessions to modern ideological trends. If anything, it’s almost refreshingly traditional.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The series sticks to a predictable rom-com formula, focusing on awkward teen romance and stereotypical hijinks. Characters are written around familiar tropes, not modern ideological checklists. Identity politics or forced diversity doesn’t drive the plot, making this a fairly non-woke outing.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender roles are, if anything, exaggerated rather than subverted. Masculinity and femininity are played up for comedy, but not actively mocked or criticized. If you’re looking for a rare specimen that doesn’t undermine cultural foundations, this is it.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s little evidence of ideological messaging or monoculture here. The show is more interested in lighthearted, if risqué, teenage humor than lecturing audiences. No modern social debates, agendas, or caricatured villains representing traditional viewpoints.
