"Since you're a guy you should act like one!"
Now that misogyny seems to be slowly waning in their society it's interesting that a case in the opposite direction cropped up and got nipped in the bud.
"Even though the number of female adventurers has increased, it doesn't mean we can torment the men!"
Addressing the unfounded allegations of misandry in this story right there. Just because we were only shown bad men for most of the story doesn't mean all men in their universe were actually bad. The goal of our protagonists' struggle was to restore the balance between the sexes that already existed 300 years ago, not invert the oppressive patriarchy created by the villain into an oppressive matriarchy as some few haters might claim.
The wild-eyed guard was just bait. Turns out he wasn't Ryan or some other bad guy seeking revenge, just a fan who's a little obsessive. I love how even as a man he was also inspired by the speech that Tanya did.
Laplace giving Tanya a lil' kiss in public is
"Stepping on someone's dreams when they are chasing them with all their heart is unforgivable"
So wholesome. I love that this message in the end is inclusive and doesn't discriminate by gender. It empowers both men and women.
A nice ending to an enjoyable story. There was at least a kiss for our main couple to end with, although I vaguely remember them kissing before too. Not enough screentime for our side couple though, but hey, at least there was a side couple! And I love side couples!
