"I didn't watch the show" starter pack
Always tourists who think they can steer the ship…

Same type of tourists that keep parroting the whole "Bridget is a Trans-Girl" bollocks that localizers pushed for Guilty Gear -Strive-, despite it being a massive ass-pull of a retcon that went against EVERYTHING about Bridget (a crossdressing boy who was forced into living as a girl due to superstitions, yet wanted to become stronger and prove to his village that they didn't have to rely on such nonsense) in the past.

And yes, I say this as a Trans-Girl myself, but I refuse to take Strive's retcon as "canon", especially when Daisuke Ishiwatari (the series creator) has been caught lying about it (IE: stating at past conventions that he intentionally made Bridget a boy, only to now say he wanted to make Bridget trans from the start but couldn't due to "social differences back then").

I mean I watched and enjoyed the show and for now do lean to it being canon, but I think it's fair why others may not. I just don't get the hostility from both sides over it. I still very much doubt it's ever relevant again in the future of the MCU so all this back and forth over a show that had a definitive ending is ridiculous to me.

The typical go-to counter arguments fall apart when you watch the show, read the Wakanda Files, or don't need something to be referenced to think it's canon (oddly enough, the only way to catch the AoS reference in AoU is to watch the show).

The hostility is honestly just the natural inclination of disagreements online unfortunately. If one side knows something and the other thinks differently, it's just going to spiral.

I also doubt that it'll be relevant again and if I'm being honest it's for the best because that keeps it from being meddled with

I'd love for it to get at least recognised, but I highly doubt it

I'd say if they start adding the rest of the MTU, they'd have to go all in. Though if any were to be left behind, it'd most likely be Helstrom (it doesn't even have the Marvel logo on its poster)

Despite that, it is still Marvel and the only reason the logo is gone is because Feige wanted to disown any Marvel TV (non-Studios) productions after Infinity War at that time.

AT THAT TIME.

Personally, if they got the Defenders back into mainstream canon, I don't doubt the rest of the MTU could get reconfirmed

I think the key difference is Feige wanted Daredevil from the beginning before Perlmutter gave it to Loeb. Plus he seemed to be a fan of Cox and D'Onofrio and knew how much fans did too so it was easy for him to bring them back. Plus the Netflix shows didn't shake up the overall world as much as the other shows. I do personally believe there are some creative choices those shows made that Marvel Studios may simply not want to address going further as part of the universe's overall lore (Inhumans and the outbreak being an example). I'm not saying they'll ever confirm they aren't canon, but I do think they want to continue to move on from them like they have for years now.
