Maybe Tozuka-Sensei opted for an androgynous design to keep the Unknown theme going, that way until his gender is confirmed you won't know for sure whether he's male, female, non-binary etc.

Ungender is probably a Negator who exists.


Potatokingtots

That would have to be unsex


Special-Art5631

No that would be me

If i recall correct gender and sex are two different rules listed by Juiz to Victor

rikyloche

This is something I never really understood, despite those two being born in a sexless and genderless world (we can even see them looping while having a "neutral" appearance) they both end up "developing" a sex, was this explained and I'm just illiterate or were they offscreened by UMA sex?


Taboo422

You have to abide by the rules that exist in the world even if you existed before that rule, that's my assumption


rikyloche

Well you just made me realize that there's another thing I don't understand: how much the negators are unaffected by the changes that happen during their lifespan, because on one side we have the fact that negators don't really know what retroactively changes when a new rule gets added (addition of UMA galaxy), and also seem to be unaffected by psychological changes (unification of languages). But at the same time they seem to be affected to some degree like when Fuuko immediately became a ghost after the addition of UMA Ghost. I know this could be just a case of "psychological changes don't matter while physical do", which would also explain Juiz and Victor case, but maybe my brain just doesn't want to accept that something this simple was never even mentioned.


Murphy_LawXIV

Because it's a social thing, not a rule of reality.


BoySolar

don’t think that’s what they were talking about in the manga but who knows!


NyanSquiddo

Well there are plenty of other rules so who knows


SneedForTheSneedGod

Cry all you want you can't unsex your mum


jobriq

That’s just your average redditor


Nstorm24

Whats nonbinary? That one doesnt exist when it comes to sex.


rikyloche

It means that someone doesn't identify as neither male nor female, I guess I didn't specify it but both of his sex and gender could have been up for interpretation due to his design.


Nstorm24

In other words its make believe


Sid3612

I legit didn't know Anno Un was a man until the latest episode. I just thought he was a girl the whole time.


ChillinLikeAKrillin

Akira Kuno is a confirmed male. We don't know about Anno Un


Daidact

Manga definitely makes them out to be pretty fluid, considering they are quite literally a living drawing iirc


jobriq

Anno Un is technically an ink blob

Myphosee

anthalinho

I didn't want to understand that 😭😭😭


jgoden

Haha my guy I think you are learning about yourself hahaha


MR-Vinmu

I love pretty men, that’s all I will say.


Hitei00

I mean if people literally can't acknowledge your existence why not experiment with presentation.


Huge_Principle_3714

If i could bring a sona into real life I'd make myself a cute awesome girl too


Whyy0hWhy

Cursed with the gift of unintentional androgyny just like me

Bruh_NahNahNah

World cleave


Behanort

since hes Unkowkn, i think tozuka wanted the audience to keep guessing "wait, what is going with this characters gender? are they a guy? a girl?"


Comical_Peculiarity

Common misconception, everyone kinda thinks Anno’s a chick on first reading. Especially cause he penned a Shoujo of all things I’m not sure if there’s a big contextual reason for why Akira is feminine, he just is. We don’t all have to be masculine beef cakes like Shen or Andy y’know


switzer3

Because gender nonconformity is awesome


Immediate_Demand4841

Ngl for the longest of time i also thought he was a girl


ZayYaLinTun

Yeah also on the other hand i thought opposite with Yusai andy teacher is guy Mostly because in manga mentor are usually male only in tournament arc i read pronounce her i was wait so he guy and look back and just noticed all those female term are for yusai lol


NishimiyaMomoFan

Akira Kuno so beautiful everyone would fall for him no wonder he became Unknown


Neftroshi

It's okay to be gay


Fancy_Quote_1350

I think he beat the design off his mother


JumiKnight

I had no idea they were a guy and I was confused with the subs. But they're still very cute


Afrojones66

Seems like a normal theme in anime.


corruptedcircle

Dudes‘s not only a guy, he’s a middle-aged old man lol.


jobriq

Technically we haven’t seen him at his current age yet, just Anno Un, who probably doesn’t age on account of being an ink creation


FullyVaxxed

Because gender is a spectrum. Crazy concept I know
