  • Megan from Bridesmaids totally stole every scene she was in for me. Such a fun chaotic character.

    Not sure if this counts but Elizabeth from Bioshock Inifite was such a better and more interesting character than Booker. She’s not playable so I figure she’s a side character even if the entire plot of the game revolves around her.

    Also not sure if it counts but Toph from Avatar the Last Airbender is one of my favorite characters in any medium. She’s not introduced until partway through season 2 (why she may count) but is part of the core group of main characters (why she might not count).













  • On the one hand, yes having a child with a higher quality of life is better than having many children.

    However, there’s a good Kurzgesagt video about how the severe decline in birthrate can doom a population. Basically, if a population is not at the very least replacing itself, it will run out of young workers to keep the country going and vastly skew the proportion of elderly people to young workers. Small, rural towns will not survive since young people will flock to cities for work.

    Though the video is based on Korea, the same concepts apply for Japan as well.
