Masane Amaha from Witchblade (Patreon)

Sorry for disappearing guys. I had a really rough case of the sads.
Satellite9 was talking to me about how much she's been enjoying the old Witchblade anime that came out some years back. I actually remember liking it too but I never finished it. This was when "mature" anime was still a thing you were lucky to catch on tv so I was never able to make sure I saw all the episodes. There are some questionable design choices but the main character was very appealing.
But I don't mean just her physical traits. She was a pretty kind and loveable character going through a lot of troubling and dangerous times. It's rare to see a single mom be a hero in ANY form of media. That she's very sexualized probably keeps her from being celebrated more often as a female role model. That's fair, of course. But maybe that's it's own shame. What's wrong with a single mom being very sexy hero in media?
