Why the tiger has become a transgender symbol in Japan

Gay Breakfast Pin Club writes:

Recently we learned about how some trans folks in Japan like to use tigers as a symbol for the trans community. It's a pun: Tora [虎] is the Japanese word for tiger, and when you sound out "trans" in katakana it basically starts with "tora." To-ra-n-su [トランス].

Toransu is clearly a loan word from English ("trans") that has been adapted to Japanese pronunciation (adding vowels/vowel epenthesis helps you avoid unpronounceable consonant clusters).

if kunikida came out as a trans girl dazai would immediately get on one knee and frestyle sonnets on how they were partners and should be partners in more then one way and how he'd love for her to strangle him one last time and how since he loves all women that includes kunikida now.

might write a fic about this idk.

Atsushi, seeing the cops marching past:

Atsushi, who has done nothing wrong ever: They're coming for me.

Dazai, currently wanted for 138 murders, 312 cases of extortion, and 625 cases of fraud, along with various and sundry other crimes: Yeah, probably.

Actually, I really love how the movie begins and ends with Atsushi having deep, unconditional trust in Dazai's goodness, going even beyond what Dazai thinks of himself. It's such a nice pattern as well as compelling theme to explore. Their relationship makes me soft.

bsd confirms and then affirms that even when atsushi has no conscious control over byakko, byakko doesn't attack people unless atsushi is in mortal danger; and even then, is discerning (such as by attacking gab instead of akutagawa in 55 minutes). however, when byakko first meets dazai in the warehouse, it attacks him on sight. this is because byakko is wise.
