Yeah exactly. I love Frozen for what it is. I don't think it's part of some oppressive agenda, though it is endemic of the current issues of media representation. If that makes any sense?
That said, the reason I love Elsa so much is that I read her as a metaphor for my own depression. She can be more than one thing to all kinds of people. The fact that Demi Lovato, who also has a history of the depression, did the pop version of Let It Go made it so much more powerful to me.
Also I saw it again today and pretty much sat there going I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING.
AND YEAH. The fact that I get to play Elsa in one game and play WITH your Elsa in this one is the best of everything.
And I think Oaken is my favorite character. So goofy and cute.
