                <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:at="http://www.sixapart.com/ns/at">
        <p>I read there&#39;s going to be a 4th season of Disney&#39;s <em>Kim Possible.</em> I have mixed feelings about that show. The action is packed, the dialogue is pretty tight, and the animation style is pleasantly quirky. However, it&#39;s so very excruciatingly feminist. All male characters are one of these options: A) Incompetent and/or small-minded sociopath, B) Highly intelligent, but lacking in either common sense or mobility, or C) Well-meaning human target and comic relief. </p><p>All that aside, the fact I&#39;m finally getting to is that coming into the 4th season that they weren&#39;t initially planning on making, they have to deal with the fact that they &quot;finished&quot; the show with the main character falling in love with her option-C sidekick, Ron Stoppable. That sort of ruins the dynamic of the show. But they (the creators) claim they have a way around it.</p><p>The point of this post is that what I would personally do in that situation is shamelessly steal from the <em>Love Hina</em> OVA.</p><p>I used to download a lot of anime. Let&#39;s not talk about why.</p><p>See, <em>Love Hina</em> was a harem-type anime with a ridiculously spineless twerp of a main character named Keitaro. The whole point of the show was how he kept accidentally looking like a pervert and getting his ass kicked by the female characters. But after they ended the series, there was an extra bit of story they released - an epilogue, basically - where Keitaro had gone away and come back a total badass. It was hugely satisfying to see the guy catch a break after 26 episodes of humiliation.</p><p>And that&#39;s what Ron Stoppable needs. I can definitely see an entire season with the various reactions to &quot;oh sh*t, Kim&#39;s not the only super-slick butt-kicker for goodness in town.&quot; Obviously new comic relief would have to be introduced. But it would be highly entertaining to me - and I&#39;m betting a whole ton of tweenage boys - to see the always-inferior male character come into his own and skillfully contribute to the sound thrashing of the Forces of Evil.<br /> </p>   <p style="clear:both;">
