What We Think

Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches is refreshingly non-woke by modern standards, focusing on humor and relationships over ideology. Any progressive moments are played for laughs, not moral grandstanding.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches relies on classic anime tropes, focusing on humor, character growth, and supernatural hijinks. While gender-swapping is a plot device, it’s handled for comedy and relationships rather than ideological messaging. Identity traits aren’t forced or overemphasized, character development is more organic.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional values like friendship, loyalty, and romance are at the forefront. While body-swapping offers the usual anime gender-bending shenanigans, there’s no agenda to subvert traditional family or cultural foundations. Masculinity and femininity are played for laughs, not lectures.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The show doesn’t push a single modern worldview or villainize traditional perspectives. Conflicts revolve around personal growth and comedic misunderstandings, not ideological clashes. There’s a mix of personalities and backgrounds, certainly not an echo chamber of modern political assumptions.
