i love the Science Fiction genre because it lets artists create worlds and technologies that speak to the Human Condition such as lesbian-powered spaceships
For as much as I like yuri, it's hard not to notice how often it's all about cis women. Seeing a series as classic and influential as Marimite tell a character who looks like me that she's welcome among the cast is a lot, even if the extent of that welcome remains to be seen.
I finally got to the trans girl in Marimite and... I'm kind of shook at how spot on her depiction is? The joy in her eyes when she presents femme, the tears at having to deadname herself, the flood of emotion when someone calls her valid... and nobody makes fun of her for it...
