How come there isn't any Gender Bender anime actually ABOUT the Gender Bend?
It's always a one-off gag, never brought up with any real pathos for the situation.

Kokkuri-San has this, only in one episode, though.

Yeah, that's cool, but like you said, it's one episode. I just don't get why there isn't something ABOUT that, y'know?
>What is Kashimashi

That's because most gender benders are about traps.
>>142040076
There are manga, but I guess none of them were ever big enough to get animated. It doesn't help that most big long running series avoid actual gender-swaps as a story feature for secondary characters. We get traps all the time, but gender swaps are generally only in limited stories at best, rather than used as the story of a recurring character.

Hourou Musuko?

The TC is probably talking about characters magically changing genders like Ranma, not actual gender identity issues.
>>142040076
How come there's no good Ranma hentai? Almost all of it is either vanilla shit, or female Ranma is drawn looking like she weighs about 200 pounds.
It's not quite the same, but Bitter Change has some of the same themes.
>>142040076
They use traps to actually delve into gender bending while keeping it grounded. Ranma is just a comedy. Where loveand Happosaiwas more important than the crazy pond antics.
Because it would inevitably be, or turn out to be, political. No one wants to do that, I would think.

Hollywood would jump at the chance to do it right now. Within a year, transgender movies and TV shows are gonna be popping up everywhere.

you're late to the game, mate. Allready all over US TV.
Yes, it is all shit.
>>142048886
Thank god I haven't seen one yet. Though I'm sure there's been plenty of shitty trans gender focused episodes of 'Generic Detective Procedural #4921'. Which is why I stay away from those.

Read manga. There are a number of them that focus on genderbending.
This confuses me too. I don't know why "being a girl" isn't more of a thing that takes focus. Even something as simple as a gender swapped person trying to deal with their new like as 'opposite-gender'yes, like mai ShindoL doujinsisn't really done by anything.
