ดาวน์โหลด "Is My Hero Academia Sexist? Yes"

What is My Hero Academia's biggest flaw? It's the way the series treats its female characters. I explore the sexualization and characterization of the women of MHA, like Ochako Uraraka and Momo Yaoyorozu in comparison to characters like Deku, Bakugou, and Todoroki. Thanks for watching!
