kinosaki discourse over. now we're talking about things that actually matter.

I'm really impressed by how Mei Kinosaki—a queer, female-presenting man—is treated as one of the main characters of Marriagetoxin. He's portrayed over and over as a paragon of sex appeal, of desire, of feminine charm, of what many shonen viewers expect a female romantic lead to look, act, and sound like. He is shown as irresistible to both sexes, and in the openings and ending sequences, he's sexualized, romanticized, and adored for his personality in equal measure. His cross-dressing isn't used for cheap comic relief jokes (outside of the initial reveal). Instead, our main character doesn't question Kinosaki's choice to present as a woman, and just fucking rolls with it.
