A Silent Voice: The Movie 2016
It's a prominent issue in animanga generally that women tend to be infantalised but combining that with a character who has a disability just makes it feels all the more gross. Shouko barely feels like a character.
I get we're telling a story about Shoya wanting to make up for the horrible things he did in his past, and as a concept I actually really like that idea but it shouldn't come at the cost of telling the victims much more interesting story.Translated from by

What a Girl Wants 2003
A guy telling his estranged daughter "I don't think this is going to work out" is hilarious, imagine just getting sick of your kid and essentially dumping them.
Also the movie is constantly framed as if the dad and daughter are into one another and it's very odd.
