@RSGX Makoto crossdresses to explore their identity. You're right in saying there aren't any trans characters, but the comment I was replying to just assumed that crossdressing = trans and then started spouting transphobic nonsense

@RSGX nice way to edit comments out of context...

My original comment clearly addressed crossdressers as well. If you, ya know, actually bothered to read it.

@ladysov Yeah, you clearly mentioned them, but why trans people too? Where did they come from? The likely troll you replied to didn't say anything related to that. The context I edited out is not even there...

With my comment, I tried to point out that something is only in your heads.

@RSGX Makoto is not yet confirmed to be trans, what's why I put the "Trans??" In a parenthesis and the question marks.

Makoto also said they weren't sure about wanting to be a girl, they are just trying to find themselves.

Oh! I was thinking about the word 男の子 (Otoko no ko, same pronuntiation, diferent kanji and meaning), which means just "boy" I guess I got confused since they don't use any kanji in the anime title. Thank you for the explanation.

I mean, both kanji work in cases such as this, that's probably why they're pronounced the same. No problem 👍

@RSGX I never outright called the character trans, I was establishing the troll clearly had a problem with both. And FYI, the character briefly mentioned a vague possibility of wanting to be a girl, which is normally a early-trans thought to have. Yes, the character is a boy, but the fact the troll said they deserved being bullied over crossdressing is clearly projecting onto trans people as well.

A majority of the MCs struggles are verbatim the same issues trans people deal with.

i think i fell in love. this has brought me so much joy, i was giggling throughout the whole episode (except when hea said 'goodnight me' when i shed a tear)

i LIVE for queer stories and the fact that he has two people who have a crush on him (and not even in the expected way like aoi only liking his 'boy side' and his friend only liking his 'girl side') is soooo good

as a genderfluid person i often struggle to make people understand that my identity and expression fluctuates and that no matter how i may look on a given day that is still the same person. i hope to see some of this struggle represented in this anime

BANGER start, i really hope this won't get messed up later on like Whisper Me A Love Song was

@KeepCalmAndMal

The otokonoko in the title is 男の娘 which is different from 男の子 (boy). It's more or less slang for crossdressing boys, but there's a bit more nuance than that.
@taskinist Thanks for the clarification. I had no idea about the difference of meanings of the title, having not read it with Japanese characters. I have a decent grasp of the language, so I was really confused as to why the term wasn't simply translated as "boy". I still think it's a poor choice, even though I agree it's not easy to translate, "crossdresser" would have been better for a better comprehension.

I thought this was Yuri at first but I definitely wrong.
Either way this looks like a fun anime and I will continue to watch it.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.
