(2/2) and its kinda funny how the writers most likely didnt mean to accidentally write nazunas as a trans allegory ngl.. good for him im glad hes presenting as a gnc trans guy now 🔥🔥 i also think he would present himself as a cis guy until sometime in his third year and struggled with a lot of toxic masculinity too but rabits were The first ones he came out to . and he probably cried out of happiness from their unconditional acceptance of him

thank you, i'm glad you approve!! i agree that it most likely wasn't intentional, but it really does add so much to his character, and although i'm not transmasc myself, i have seen a lot of transmasc people who relate to him which is really sweet. and like you said, it's also nice to see how he's been growing out of that toxic masculinity and accepting that it's fine for him to be cute in some ways/enjoy some cute things in addition to his more traditionally masculine traits! the thought of him coming out to the ra*bits kids is so cute... because yeah, they Would happily accept him (all three of them have canonically shown understanding and acceptance towards arashi and/or bishoujo-senpai and/or lgbt people in general) and they all just love their niichan So much 🥺

yes of course!! i think nazuna being a trans man is a pretty common headcanon which also makes a lot of sense in the context of his backstory. when he was younger, people always praised him for being cute and pretty which did not align with how he saw himself at all + it also made him feel uncomfortable because he knew he was a Boy, and boys aren't Supposed to be cute and pretty. his looks, along with his beautiful (high-pitched) singing voice, were the only things that people really valued about him.. to the point that whenever he acted in a way that was in line with his natural (boyish) personality, the people around him would get annoyed with him, and he'd pretty much end up being forced to act cute against his will. but he always felt suffocated by it, and really just wanted to be accepted for who he really is.

i'd recommend reading the prologue of human comedy if you want to see his own thoughts on the matter! and the rest of human comedy and high five to see the resolution - how he's finally found people (ra*bits) who unconditionally love and accept every part of him, how he's managed to reclaim his own brand of "cuteness" on his own terms, and how his self esteem has improved enough that he can now truly be proud of the person he is.

as for the "het" part... honestly that's mostly just me thinking transhet hcs are cool and underrated. but i also just don't ship nazuna with any male characters or think he really shows any attraction to guys. and as for whatever shnz had going on in the past... well, shu is transfem to me so it still fits with the hc lol
