All memeing aside, what IS it with transgenders in the mecha genre? There's one in the FIRST episode of L-Gaim. Was Tomino just really into that or something?
There's Levin from Tekkaman Blade
And Gurren Lagann being the ultimate homage show has Leeron, whom I always thought was a direct reference to Levin
>>24002611Tomino is a feminist, but he believes in cooties.This is the most elegant explanation for how he writes women and troons.
>>24002613I thought he was just flamboyant
>>24002611This character has a functioning female reproductive system, her daughter appears later in the show
>>24002615He's just a queer, yes. An okama type, pretty much
>>24002619faggot is the closest translation, tonally speaking
Op that character has a daughter, she’s just flat out unattractive. Think before you post next time, otherwise you’ll embarrass yourself

>>24002617It's a dude and he abducted her.
>>24002645What "bait"? It's a real issue. I'm sorry if that makes you uncomfortable, but you can't pretend like the reality of this doesn't exist.
>>24002645Clown world, clown rules, clown reactions
>>24002612Satoru Akahori loves him some gender fuckery, you can see it in Maze and in the discarded Shurato setting where Gai was a woman in one of his past lives and his long hair in his current life is a vestige of that.
>>24002611>>24002612>>24002613This kind of gag character exists in all sorts of Japanese media. You just have a narrow view so you think it exists only within your pond of experience.
>>24002754>You just have a narrow view Do I? You're calling all these characters "gags"?
>>24002771Yeah? Them being massive flaming fruity fags is the joke. Your mileage may vary on how entertaining it is, but that is usually the intention.
>>24002771Again your narrow view is showing. In Japan those types of characters are treated as gag characters 99% of the time. Even the ones you've posted. You've been humbled, know when to back down instead of trying to start some other unrelated argument to save face. You fucking twerp.
>>24002754A lesser blatant visual example are the ugly fruitcake twins in Votoms. Gay speech style, skirted outfits, okama haircut.
