THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This was actually pretty interesting in how it showed how different things would be if the genders were flipped. Atushi isn't seen as being creepy by the police, the sister's friend's crush on the 5th grader seems more creepy because she is male, etc. |

a confusing twist on changing gender to height. i'm not sure of everything going on. though it somewhat goes along with the plot of this short short anime |

Never thought that this would go gender bender on us. It was quite an eye-opener. |

This was actually very clever and not only broke the fourth wall, it had some unexpected social commentary about gender roles (without falling into one or another easily labeled camp). Unfortunately the animation quality wasn't as good as the normal episodes (and that's not saying much since the normal quality is pretty cheap). I do miss this one...another season please... |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |

AngelicFeces said: You can say that again. It was expected though, with males always getting the short end of the stick.What a deep social commentary. |

lol. This showed a great point, about the girl not being arrested. Pretty much like the world turns their heads towards female pedophiles. Yes they exist and they are just as bad. Sent with Mal Updater |

Even with a bender, no matter the gender there are pervs and fetishes had by many. End of the series....Sad but true T.T |

The social commentary was quite funny. I'd say that this special did better than this season, which really shows how this show had potential (don't get me wrong, Seven does an amazing job, but this season really was lacking) |

A gender swap?! Okay, not even surprised at this point. |

Nice attempt at social commentary but there's a REASON men are arrested more for walking around holding little girls hands. Not to mention a crush on what appears to be a fully developed adult is very different than purposefully chasing child bodies. |

Gender bender actually changed the whole POV in this series. Really thoughtful episode I would say 😂. So this is the last content of this anime, satisfied with how they concluded all Misunderstandings and now it's normal life. |
