Sailor Moon has always been pro LGBTQ+ but I still wasn't expecting a random collab with Monster Strike to be so pro gender fluid and I'm loving this. This is the feel good story of the week that I didn't know I needed.

I think BSSM and the franchise as a whole has a lot of themes, and while its gender/sex themes aren't a "core" theme, it's always been a central and very permanent element of the whole franchise. I'm so glad to see it acknowledged and used like this.

It sounds like this an important, relevant and also great time for a commercial like this in Japan. I wish we had something of the equivalent in the US~.
