...just because she might not be 100% succesful, doesn't mean she shouldn't get to try, though?
When it comes down to it, it's Rinko's choice. And her mother is trying to take it away from her. That's all there is to it.
Having them end out the story as nonbinary or gender-fluid could definitely work, but it would need a lot of set-up.
Would be really cool, though. Not much NB rep in manga, as far as I'm aware
Why should she have to move on from that, though. Why can't she just be a girl if that's what feels right for her?
Why does she have to prove that she can't live as a man before being allowed to be a woman (again)?
Yeah, let's send her to two different psychologists to prove she's woman enough to be allowed to change back, and then put her on a 2½-year waiting list in order to receive help!
Seriously, though, isn't the fact that she is grieving the fact her body isn't a girl's (anymore) enough of a sign...
...So next time, Noel and Eito are going to save Kei-chan together, right? And it'll spark the reignition of their lost friendship, right?
...right? :aquadrink::aquadrink::aquadrink:
(Am I the only one still gunning for the poly ending...?)
