Index

Since I’m mostly writing for TDF at the moment, I figured it would be nice to have an index about articles relating to my previous series/topics.

I’ll include some of my posts from here, too, just as a place to compile my work.

The Chronicles of Narnia

Comparing Morality In Two Fantasy Classics — ‘Harry Potter’ (1997-2007) Vs. ‘The Chronicles Of Narnia’ (1950-56) • The Daily Fandom

naturally, i mostly write about harry potter in contrast to something else that i actually like.

Princess Tutu

Princess Tutu is Exactly As Girly As It Sounds (And That’s Not A Bad Thing)

One of my first forays into an editorial format.

“Defying Fate” — The Revolutionary Power Of Art In ‘Princess Tutu’ (2002–03) • The Daily Fandom

I just wanted to write about this show for TDF.

Fruits Basket

Furuba Couples Ranking (+NEW ANIME!)

While I won’t make it a habit to include lists here (as there’s already a handy tab for that), this is more about my feelings about (more of less) canon couples in the manga.

“Aren’t We Human, Too?” — The Inherent, Messy Queerness Of ‘Fruits Basket’ (1998-2006) • The Daily Fandom

This one is something I consider to be a necessary follow-up to my series, as I obviously had a lot of queerphobia to unpack back when I first wrote about Furuba.

The Lord of the Rings

The Problem With Live-Action Remakes: What ATLA Can Learn From LOTR

It’s ostensibly about live-action remakes, but I discuss the groundbreaking nature of LOTR (both the books and the movies), alongside delving into the groundbreaking nature of the original ATLA cartoon.

The Owl House

Breaking the (Magic) System: What The Owl House understood (and Harry Potter didn’t)

what did i tell you?

‘The Owl House’ (2020-23) Versus ‘Arcane’ (2021-24) — Rethinking Mental Health Representation In Animation • The Daily Fandom

While I’m more critical of Arcane in this article, that’s mostly because mental health rep is one of its weak points.

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power

“Liberating The Hero’s Journey” — How ‘She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power’ (2018-2020) Rewrites The Myth • The Daily Fandom

This is one I’m really proud of — I had fun researching the Heroine’s Journey and seeing how She-Ra plays with it.

Animation

How Shoujo Anime Influenced Modern American Cartoons — From ‘My Little Pony’ (2010-19) To ‘The Owl House’ (2020-23) • The Daily Fandom

This was what inspired me to try writing for them in the first place, since I felt like this was a strong, underexplored angle.

The Disappearance Of Animation — How ‘OK K.O.! Let’s Be Heroes’ (2017–2019) Became A Forgotten Classic • The Daily Fandom
