I doubt it's as politically charged as taking fire on one side or the other. Genderbending characters has been a thing for a long time, Potterheads have always been a bit gaga for the Franchise, there's currently more chatter around the IP because of the series, and the tsundere trope has been popular for a long time while we're currently seeing a lot of animanga-isms make the leap to the west.

All combined, I think it's as simple as people going nuts over a cute girl who happens to fit well into a franchise people have loved for a long time and otherwise have minor problems with. Throw in the plot tweaks people have been fanficking and it only stokes the flames of popularity.

    I realise I'm probably swinging for the fences here, but does anyone possibly have a line on a British children's TV series from the 70s and 80s called Tiswas? A family member appeared in it so I was hoping to surprise them by finding the episode they were in. I know I'm specifically looking for the 1975 series but I'm afraid I don't know which episode it is.
