Does any one else not like Akira or is it just me? I don't know why really, I just don't, kinda feels like a weak character, maybe.
You can't give a transgirl initiative in a series meant for cis people, they won't feel sympathetic unless she weak, traditionally feminine and fragile.
Actual trans girls walk around like they own the place while waving communist flags so yeah. Honestly though Hime has way more lines as opposed to Akira making it about cis adapting to trans rather than about trans
Yeah, the focus is meant to be on Hime learning valuable lessons of gender while Akira puts on a dress and cries in a mirror or whatever. But like you don't have to pidgeonhole her into that same wandering son "hyperfeminity" even if she's more a plot device than a characer, especially when there's so many eggs out there who think they're not feminine enough to be women.
At least they show her as not completely "passing" day one while still letting her keep her dignity.
