Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The story centers on Tomo, a tomboyish girl pursuing her childhood friend. Her gender is significant to the plot, but the show focuses on organic character growth and comedy rather than messaging. Identity traits serve the story rather than overtake it.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional gender roles are played with but not trashed; the show’s humor comes from Tomo’s struggle to be seen as feminine, yet it ultimately affirms classic romance and friendship values. Family and school life are portrayed fairly respectfully.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is a mix of personalities with varying views. No single worldview dominates, and there’s room for characters to disagree and learn from one another. Dissenting outlooks are played for laughs, not villainy.
