@Tomzai You could argue that him looking drastically more feminine as of late is a symbolic way of showing that he loves the Hero partially because he identifies as a girl, but I think the artist just forgot he was a full blown biological man instead of a tomboy.
*Me seeing a man gradually, but rapidly, transitioning from page to page as he's slowly admitting his love for the hero* Aight, I'm done with this! See ya all in hell!
