this...
has some serious potential of greatness... I hope it will not be wasted.

I'm not into trap thing since I prefer Yuri but this kinda cute ahaha , but my question is since Mogu gender is M.F does that mean mogu can choose what he/she wants down there if bird or cat(if you know what I mean) ahahaha ,like the guy in UQ holder.

No. They're just a person who doesn't identify.

Zee is obviously an Apache attack helicopter.
This is not a manga about a cross dresser maid cafe but the story of someone with PTSD coming to terms with what happened in Iraq in 1991.

Whoa, some (somewhat) serious non-binary manga? Where's this coming from?

But that male lead strikes me as 700% stereotypical lead in comparable stories so that makes my interest plummet to unfortunate levels ...

yeah the surrounding cast do not give me much hope for this to be done well

Lead is a cookie cutter MC character. That being said, his big bro interests me greatly!

I just read the kimi Dake no Ponytail stories to get a full understanding of things but I'm still a bit confused. I understand MC in this situation as identifying as Agender or non-binary. I just...Like are the other characters transgender or just no? Beside that I'm going to give this series a chance and hope for the best.

This definitely should be tagged with transgender with our agender protagonist.

Eh, I dunno. If I was going to do something like this, I would probably couch it in a bunch of familiar tropes. The goal is to help your readers understand something they might have unconcious biases against. Presenting that in a familiar framework can help a lot with that sort of thing.

Well, Suzu is a boy, he just likes to crossdress, the other characters we probably will discover over time.

From the general assumptions everybody seems to make about the agender kid, I'd say it's likely they're all pretty similar to each other.

There's enormous pressure on boys to act one way and girls another. So it's not hard to see why someone would want to opt out of that game entirely, even if I personally think the "gender spectrum" is about as useful as astrology.

This just may be me seeing this through my own personal lens, but I believe Mogumo is intersex or possibly trans.

Yeah I don't know a lot about Japanese documentation but considering it's marked with both M and F they're probably meant to be intersex

W-Wait, why the sequel part? What's the first story? ;w;

Once the singularity is here and we shed our fleshy vessels in favor of perfect robot bodies these silly notions won't be relevant no more anyway, might as well discard them now.

The maid cafe is the one from the author’s doujin series and one of the boys working there is the MC from it too. The one with the ponytail.

But does your perfect robot body have female or male bits or both?

That depends, which day of the week are we talking about?

Yes, you are. They are agender or at least don't identify as either male or female.

Well considering the person themselves clearly said they are neither, this was a attempt at avoiding answering the question, since document asked for their gender and they don't have one, so they wrote both hoping nobody will think much of it. And they were right since brother assumed it was a mistake.

This is one of the dumbest series on here.

This is my take on the characters so far;
Mogumo - Non-binary, agender. The fact that they present as female is a source of confusion as most enbies I've met prefer to look as androgynous as possible but it's definitely not unheard of for non-binary people to have male and female preferences depending on the situation (clothing, pronouns, body image)
Mei - Transgender. Born a boy but wishes she was born a girl, fairly obvious. Although, she accepts the label of girlyboy as a way to fit in.
MC's brother - Transgender. Although we don't know that much about this character at this point, and they keep getting referred to as "brother". Need more data.
Suzu - A boy who enjoys crossdressing. Nothing wrong with that! He even uses "Ore" to refer to himself.
Ten-chan - Ten-chan is Ten-chan.

Overall, I'm really liking this!

Suzu does not pass the bechdel test

This is one of the dumbest series on here.

I think is the opposite, one of the smartest. The author has clearly made a lot of search for present something that can help to understand more easily the difference between the agender, the transgender and the crossdresser.
It's educational and entertaining, a little bit as the comic of the famous author Sophie Labelle (which i recommand highly for understand the trans reality).
