Barbie: Several characters appear designed more to tick diversity boxes and represent political symbols than to serve the narrative organically, which disrupts character depth and coherence.
Dicks: The Musical: Characters feel mostly developed around their comedic and narrative roles rather than as tokens, though some eccentricities may hint at light caricature.
