Kim Possible wouldn't work if you keep the characterization exactly the same. Boy Kim wouldn't be an appealing husbando and Girl Ron wouldn't provide balance since she would just be an insufferable Mary Sue.

I could see it working if you change it so that they fit the gender norms though (meaning just a show about an ideal guy and outcast girl).

Archer.

For one, most viewers would be uncomfortable with a female Sterling being ruined by her alcoholic father

Secondly, "female Sterling tries to find her real mother" would be a ridiculous premise even for Adam Reed

Third, male Pam, female Ray and female Cyril basically couldn't work as characters for obvious reasons

...though, a female Krieger would be pretty fucking interesting.

Those aren't even problems.
The real problem would be the Kanker brothers.
I mean I've seen boys trying to kiss girls in Middle School (it was usually one or two boys) and the girls running away saying, "GROSS!" But the Kanker brothers would feel even more rapey than the Kanker sisters do. Even if it's just teasing/trying to get them to freak out because they think it's funny.

But that's wrong, aside from the reproduction/birth episodes.
Most of the characters represent things that don't even have a gender irl like goddamn blood cells or viruses, and it really doesn't matter if it's Pierre or Psi who breaks their leg skiing.

It's always nice to see it mentionned but dude, that might be the wrongest answer.

Mike Tyson Mysteries
>>
I don't think Ben 10 of any form would work genderswapped. Sure, there are single episodes that feature a Gwen 10, but generally Ben's annoying personality is only balanced by the physical rebuffs he gets from everyone else.

In other words, for most cartoons: boys are higher leveled and can take more hits due to lack of skills, while girls are lower leveled and thus can't take many hits, but compensate with more/better skills. And note when I say hits I mean not only physical damage but almost any conflict. Because boys have more room to grow than girls, they can take bigger hits because they haven't solidified yet. And ultimately in a fair situation as adults men are larger/smarter/etc in raw numbers but women have more tactile experience with their skills and can usually use them better.

>>92506898
Naw, it'd work.

Japanese millennials are just as much adult children as the men, so a show about growing the fuck up instead of just trying to act mature works.

Also, chicks. Dig. Giant robots.

Tenchi Muyo though...it'd work, but would be stretched badly to cover it in the OVA. Galaxy canon still works.

I think the consensus has been that you would have to use your imagination for most of these because the amount of retooling you would have to do on some of them is so great that the original flavor and message of the shows would be completely lost in translation. You could make anything work, but the undertones alone would cause some pretty severe butthurt.

That being said, what about anything involving themes/settings which are anatomically impossible or have significant cultural distinctions from the other gender, such as pregnancy or "women in a man's world" shows?
