I was so confused about wtf was going on with Gwyndolin in Dark Souls until I learned about this phenomenon

[–] Cromalin@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago (4 children)

yeah gwyndolin is part of a long line of trans women in anime and adjacent spaces (there's got to be a better way to shorten that) who just are not acknowledged as such by anyone involved or 90% of the fans. goes back to characters like hibari from stop! hibari-kun, who lives full time as a woman and says "i wish to be perceived as a woman by everyone" but the artist refers to her as male. most recent major one i can think of is dragona joestar. she gets injections that give her boobs, passes as a woman, gets sexually assaulted several times for explicitly transmisogynistic reasons. the unofficial english translation refers to her as male, but the official french translation refers to her as a woman

it's SUCH A MASSIVE THING and i have no clue how it got to be this way
