By the way, same-sex relationships in Japanese media are pretty common. Gender-diverse people too. By western standards now it’s hit-or-miss, but 20 years ago Japan was far ahead. I think the portrayal of queer people in Japanese media has stayed pretty consistent since then, or improved only a little bit. But it’s still pretty decent I’d say, in the scheme of things.

The trope of “traps” in anime is pretty well established and very fucking transphobic. Its all getting better but we can’t act like its great overall
Yes definitely. I said “common,” not “empowering” to be clear.
