(wip theme) 💙👨‍❤‍💋‍👨💙

Character: Usotsuki

From: Yume Nisshi

Gender: Trans girl

Why: in my opinion many of the effects you can get in the game seem to center around femininity (pink dress, ribbons, etc) and even bodily changes (chimera effect) but the reason I believe she’s a trans girl is because a lot of the areas and events in the game have a theme of body image or insecurity. For example one event near the hospital curtains area, seeing the body tied up. It might be symbolic of feeling trapped in her biological body. Hospitals tend to make you feel like that. When you encounter mirrors in the game, the face is scribbled out. She doesn’t want to view herself the way she is now, but (to me) feels happy in the areas with other girls and beautiful dolls. Some dream worlds have body parts or dolls in them. This could be nothing or it could be more symbolism.
