Yup, making them related without removing any of the subtext. So they went from being lesbians to being incestuous lesbians.
And they were roommates
Brad, the hottest guy at school
And no Owl House? Crikey...
Spoilers
Possible it was drawn before Owl House got good?
Edit: and by got good, i mean got explicitly gay!
Insane to not include TOH.
REPRESENTATION MATTERS
(All but one character is a lesbian couple)
so many of these characters were so formative for me figuring things out as a kid, it was comforting to see someone else that I felt reflected in, being able to say like "oh hey that's how I feel"
i know all of them except the one with trans flag and the girl next to her
Also, man i wish there were as many mlm couples as wlw
women loving men?
Wulti-level marketing
sorry just edited, meant wlw as women loving women
Off topic, but not capitalizing on Korrasami is one of the stupidest things Viacom has ever done, lol. Which is saying something.
How could they possibly think "No one will like this, quietly sweep it under the rug..."
Its always a positive feeling seen.
I love this
Where's muh gurl Beckett Mariner?
I demand a list of all the characters in this picture!... Please...
The ones I recognize are, starting at the top and going clockwise:
Cassandra (Assassin's Creed Odyssey)
Chloe Price and Max Caulfield (Life is Strange)
Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn (Batman/DC)
Princess Bubblegum and Marcelline (Adventure Time)
Korra and Asami Sato (Legend of Korra)
Adora and Catra (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power)
Sailor Uranus and Neptune (Sailor Moon)
The blue and red in the middle are Ruby and Sapphire from Steven Universe
Okay, but who's the one with the trans flag?
That's a minor character from RWBY, in the later seasons when the show gets bad.
No Luz and Amity?
I am more of a Banana Fish guy
I thought Harley is typically with the joker? Was that updated at some point?
Harley and Ivy have had an on-again off-again thing going since the late 90's or mid 00's. It's been at least decade since Harley ditched Joker in the mainline comics and moved on to greener pastures.
They actually first implied it during the Batman: The Animated Series, as a "Sappho and her friend" style relationship, only coming out and saying it later in the comics.
Ivy what you did there.
Harley is bisexual, a demographic which often gets erased the moment they're not actively flirting with multiple people of different genders at the same exact time.
The new(er) Harley Quinn animated series. it's very good. It's got big kite energy.
I put off watching that for a long time because I didn't really like the Harley Quinn character and her obsession with Joker and that whole abusive relationship they had, compounded by all the people who treated Harley and Joker like it was a relationship goal.
But I was very pleasantly surprised when I did eventually give it a shot. Yeah, it does include some Harley and J stuff, but they kinda had to because of how ingrained that relationship was into Harley's pop culture identity. But it is done well. The series is one of my favorite in the Batman mythos.
It's also kinda interesting how Ivy seems to be holding up better morally than Batman himself does. She's an environmental warrior while he's a status quo warrior, and that billionaire side of him holds up less and less well as it becomes more and more apparent that even billionaire philanthropists are really just taking credit for giving away wealth they shouldn't have had in the first place.
Harley hasn't really been a thing with the Joker since forever. The comics have had her and Ivy as a thing for years.
She was obsessed with him for most of Suicide Squad. And she will be again in the next Joker film.
Yeah, the terrible Jared Leto vehicle and the Incel Manifesto are probably not the best depictions of her as a character.
Those goalposts heavy?
