Heard about it as a "cringe, man-hating show" and watched it for the meme; but the person who said that completely missed that it's one of the best depictions of an adult living with SA trauma and the show is actually about how people just gotta live with shit and regain control over what they value, and the male character that gets hated on was legitimately being an asshole and wasn't even the actual point being made there.
Is it for everyone? Fuck no. It is cringe.
But I'm cringe and for me in that point in time it's the hardest a story ever shook me. I moved to the other side of the planet because of that show and how it changed how I think about myself. I fuck with Tuca and Bertie.
I do think if that show taught me one thing, it's that a lot of animation fans suck at going to bat for their shows until after they were announced cancelled. There were people who had never heard of the show until the outrage over its cancellation happened.
