DEI Detector
Evidence-based notes on DEI, woke localisation, and censorship in games, anime, film, TV, and manga.
We track agenda pushing, intentional sexual or feminine censorship in remakes, intentional mistranslation or localisation changes, and regional censorship when a cleaner build exists elsewhere.
How we score: each title gets a Woke Score from 0–100.0 means little or no DEI / woke interference documented;100 means heavy, intentional woke or DEI packaging. Standing pages stay at a fixed URL and are updated in place as new evidence lands.
