Weird place in the story to put this chapter, but honestly?

I feel like this is the most relatable response to suddenly waking up gender swapped, and I say this in regards to both camps.

Y'all fucking hypocrites. I know what each and every single last one of you males would do if you turn into one of us

I've been enjoying whackedy-ass manga and anime since at least 1997. Nothing a genderswap plot does will be jarring to you ever again once you've read or watched "Maze: The Mega-Burst Space". Those brain cells have been on loan for decades now and I don't think I'm getting them back. It's got a sick opening theme though.
What did Maze do that was particularly jarring? It was basically two totally different personalities, so it hardly explored anything psychologically...it also didn't involve anything all that explicit. I don't know, I don't just don't get what you're implying with that.

The theme song was, however, sick as hell.

Things like recreating the Wizard of Oz by dropping a house on a bad guy, the unused bit of story where Miru was going to turn out to be a hermaphrodite and it made no sense... that bit in the OVA where male Maze deadass rapes a princess and it's treated as cute and her having enjoyed it one jump cut later. I still have a fondness for it, that OVA moment very much aside. Like having an openly lesbian character with a male adventuring partner and it's not treated as a deep part of her character but just a factor of who she is. In terms of jarring storyline directions though, Maze makes this manga look downright tame.

Ah, I thought you meant in terms of genderswap specifically. Although I think the "wild" bits are more of an artifact of the time than specific to the show.

Oh, yeah. No it is VERY much a product of its time when anime in general kind of ran on wackiness. But shows like that are why I'm mostly immune to anime/manga having huge tonal whiplash-inducing plot swerves. You can tell the younger fans of anime/manga from the older ones because of that built up immunity.

(though maybe I kind of wish I didn't, it was just kind of the price of entry at the time. You wanted genderswap? You pretty much had slim pickings if not for things like Ranma or Futaba-kun -- and you're SOL if you couldn't stand some writing fuckwittery on the way.)
