More gender bended anime characters
Saturday, June 27th 2009
After finding the gender bended version of characters in Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu, I did some more search to find whatever anime had their characters gender swapped by their fans. While I do hope that some of these gender swapped version be made into a full series, I understand that the story would have to be changed (perhaps in a major way) to avoid awkwardness.
Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
This is the first anime (with no gender-swapping in the actual story) with gender bended version available I know. For sure I like how they transform Kyon into Kyonko and Itsuki into Itsuhime. In fact, I even think that Itsuhime is more appealing than Asahina Mikuru.
However, I doubt this one would make it into a full series without some minor change in story. I had seen some animation being made with the gender bended characters. However, somehow something twitch when I watch Haruki (male version of Haruhi) kick the computer club leader (also turned into a girl), which I see as an example of ungentlemanly behavior.
Clannad
I found this among the piles of Suzumiya Haruhi gender bending version video in YouTube, the day before I write this article. I appreciate how the artist change the gender while leaving the characteristic of each character intact. Just FYI, someone also make a live version of Clannad as well. The name is "Clonnad". If your are interested, just google it up.
But then, I found myself asking "Why Clannad?" even now. For sure, the story is going to be really awkward without lots of major plot change. For sure I don't want to see female version Sunohara being combo-kicked by male-version of Tomoyo. The After Story would be even more awkward since it involve Nagisa being pregnant as well. Well, at least sad ending is going to be less possible this way. But that is going to reduce the dramatic value of this anime series.
Lucky Star
I found this in YouTube the same day I write this article. There is no animation available for this and the fan art is scarce as well. While it is fun to look how the male version of these characters look like, I doubt I am going to watch it should someone decided to make a full series out of it. But perhaps it could be a good way to make the anime fangirls willing to watch Lucky Star.
