EDGE (Rival Schools)

Submitted by: @saikyo-rat

Reason: He canonically dislikes his birth name and prefers to be referred to by a sort of “nickname” which to me already screams “transgender”. So him being trans should’ve been a thing since day one.

MEGUMI FUSHIGURO (Jujutsu Kaisen)

Submitted by: Anonymous

Reason: Notably salty about his first name, which is extremely feminine in owing to the fact that his dad apparently didn't know his gender when naming him. Saw the scene and went, huh, why not. Trans guy Megumi. He just has the vibes.

EMU HOJO (Kamen Rider Ex-Aid)

Submitted by: @guster-animations

Reason: his name is usually feminine. parado is more assertive and masculine than him and basically a trans metaphor. i refuse to believe he is not transmasc

RIA AMI (Magia Record)

Submitted by: @rileyrecord315

Reason: Ria is a magical girl whose wish was to "become a naturally beautiful girl", she hated her appearance before her wish and considered her body to be unfit for helping her become a top fashion model. As a result of her wish nobody in her life remembers what she looked like previously, as far as they're all concerned, she has always been a beautiful girl and never looked any different. Her doppel also focuses heavily on the body symbolism, transforming from a nondescript person-shaped blob to a traditionally feminine body shape, with emphasis on the molecules and anatomy of the body.

All in all, I think this all heavily suggests that Ria could be a trans girl. The heavy fixations on her body to the point where it's the focus of her doppel, the fact that she made sure that *no one* remembered her previous appearance with her wish and her fascination with hyper femme beauty and fashion all just point towards Ria having suffered from heavy bodily dysmorphia, and I've seen a lot of people hc her as trans and honestly it makes sense!! Also shout out to how she had one of the smartest wishes ever made in the madomagi series, girl thought it through perfectly and I feel like a lot of other magical girls in the series could learn a thing or two from her lmao

AUBERY (OMORI)

Submitted by: @pterodactylwoman

Reason:

A big part of her design and initial introduction as a character is how jarringly different she is from Sunny’s memory of her. While textually she just looks more punk and tough than before it does have some interesting implications as far as coding. A little later There is a scene where she is in a church and several attendees all make a big fuss about her off putting appearance and what a burden she is for her parents. She’s clearly not welcome in such a conservative space.

There is also the matter of her friends. Her initial friend group was almost all boys, it’s common for kids to separate along gender lines in friend groups, especially at the age they are in the flashbacks. Mari is the only other girl in that friend group and is shown to be doing feminine activities with Aubrey, things that her parents are stated to disapprove of like dying their hair girly colors. There’s also Aubrey’s friend group later in life all have very gender non-conforming designs slowing that is the group she is more comfortable with as she forms more of her own identity.

One could also argue that the headspace version of Aubrey is Sunny’s femininity manifesting and in that sense is also trans.

P.I.X.A.L. (LEGO Ninjago)

Submitted by: @summerlimeismethebrony

Reason: (I have some specific thoughts here that don't line up with the fandom's typical interpretation, so if that bothers you uh. Don't read this ig. Also, spoilers ahead)

So P.I.X.A.L. is an android introduced in season 3, where she's set up as a love interest and character foil to Zane, one of the main characters and also an android. She starts out kinda blank and not entirely sentient, but she's broken out of the BBEG's control over her programming and she has to learn to, like, Be A Person and deal with emotions. She loses her body at one point, and for (way tOO LONG) multiple seasons is just an AI/brain being carried around inside Zane's head. It is not explained why she doesn't ask for a new body, nor why no-one offers her one. Eventually she builds herself a new body and starts moonlighting as a vigilante without telling anyone, and the others only find out bc her body gets high jacked and she has to warn them that a mech is coming after them. Her explanation for why she kept this a secret as presented in canon doesn't hold up and feels like the writers just wanted a reveal without having to think about character motivations.

ANYWAY. In my head lives a version of P.I.X.A.L.'s story where not only is she trans, but that fact helps her character immensely. First off, she is introduced as a guy, and has to crack her egg alongside learning to Be A Person. Zane, as a fellow android and certified Person, can help her with that. As she learns about his experiences, she learns that certain things he wants don't match up with what she wants (there is a scene I have mostly-written about Zane wanting to re-design the Titanium Ninja body to better fit his own sense of self, like making his voice not sound like it's coming out of a speaker. And P.I.X.A.L. notes that she's never liked her voice, with or without a speaker). She doesn't ask for a new body bc her options are 1) build the same old body that makes her dysphoric or 2) come out to everyone she knows, and neither option is appealing at the moment when she's still new to this whole Being A Girl thing. When she starts moonlighting as a vigilante, it's partially a way to get used to being seen as a girl (the mech would have her canon voice from the start rather than a voice changer) by others, before she tells her friends and family.

((I have more but they're kinda disjointed. Just know that trans woman P.I.X.A.L. means so much to me and that I think about her often))

MAKOTO KIKUCHI (The iDOLM@STER)

Submitted by: @cantarella-rose

Reason: From the project imas wiki "Her dad is a professional race car driver who wished to have a son, and therefore has raised Makoto as a boy, leading to her tomboyish demeanor. After Makoto one day discussed with her dad how she wished to be more feminine, her dad came to the conclusion to make her an idol, and introduced Makoto to 765 Production." Ladies, gentlemen, other esteemed guests: she's a wholeass trans girl.

RENGE ICHO (Kamen Rider Gotchard)

Submitted by: @kaydiant

Reason: Why do you think Renge took up alchemy in the first place? Why do you think she's so intent on saving up money? It's to transition and be able to afford said transition, obviously!

#not gimmick

[couldtranssavethem]

Beep boop it's an intro post!

This blog is inspired by @couldtransitionsaveher and other similar blogs. Here the question lies in if the character in question could be saved if they were already trans, as opposed to having transitioned.

Obligatory "no IRL people pls" rule
