I’m curious how these modern takes on One Piece will deal with the Okama and related characters (assuming they get that far!)
I haven’t read the manga, but the anime at least comes off super-transphobic in how they’re played for laughs at times. I think that’d necessarily be cut from the live action version, but less hopeful about this for another anime adaptation.
Okama are definitely more of a personality trait group similar to drag queens. Some of them being trans is more incidental rather than the purpose of them in the story
