That gender and sexuality discussion was actually incredibly well thought out. Honestly, I was expecting much from the premise, but I fucking adore this manga.

Thanks for the translations and all your hard work!

 

[Mirza_Shahbaz]

Very nice

 

[Will_Madden]

this is actually rlly sad isnt it, i thought it would be some wholesome yuri but now my feels have been hit,

 

[beeaggro]

Rei actually goes harder on this later in the LN.

Basically a lot of the LN spends time shitting on Japan's view of homosexuality and how she passes plays a huge part in that as well. The book is basically one giant middle finger to Japanese society masquerading as a cute isekai yuri romance

 

[beeaggro]

Also for those curious. Gender comes up more and a trans character does come into play soon. You already know them

 

[beeaggro]

And for the confused. Claire overheard the mean girls and fucked them up. That wasn't Rei who got hit with something

 

[undeadclown]

@beeaggro that’s a little misleading as the character in question

Spoiler

had their gender magically changed against their will when they were little and simply want to return to what they were biologically born as.

I could just as easily see people argue it’s an anti example.

 

[albertcookie302]

ARE YOU A HOMOSEXUAL

 

[NinjaGoemon]

@undeadclown it's not misleading at all

Spoiler

there's 3 transgender characters in this story and Rae explains each time that they have gender dysphoria. Joel in particular is given the curse intentionally to help her since there's no hormones prescriptions in this world and the like

.

As a gay person I was extremely (and pleasantly) surprised by this chapter. I wish more media (western or eastern) took this view instead of making gay people always the butt of the joke. It's a lot better than it was in the past, but the fact that this chapter surprised me, and even had to include the topic of gay people being seen as predatory towards 'straight' (I don't think claire is straight so I added the apostrophe thingies) shows that there's still more to be improved upon. Love this manga Ɛ>

 

[dy4y]

@NinjaGoemon why do you spell her name like that (R-A-E instead of R-E-I)? Is it like that in the official translation or something (still haven't gotten one since out of stock so can't check)?

 

[NinjaGoemon]

@dy4y Correct. It also differentiates between present and pre-isekai versions of herself.

 

[dy4y]

@NinjaGoemon Well that's definitely gonna annoy me when I buy the official one .

 

[iphex]

Having read the webnovel I can def. say that the author takes on themes of gender and gender dysphoria in a very pleaseant way that makes you think there is still some hope for humanity.
