You’d better watch the whole thing before commenting, or else.
I made a follow-up video about my feelings post-ena5:    • A Transfem Perspective on Ena5  

Originally, I thought that I had more time to complete this video, so I ended up rushing it. That's why there are many awkwardly edited parts and the video ends kind-of abruptly. Regardless, I hope that I was able to get everything across that I needed to, even if doing so was kinda awkward.

In addition, despite the title, I don't think that this video is really "comprehensive." There's a lot more I could have added onto this video to further support my point and maybe in the future I'll make another video that compiles those extra bits. Beyond that though, there is a lot of room for more "academic" analysis of Mizuki's character beyond comparing definitions and seeing who fits what. I have some of my extra thoughts on my tumblr www.tumblr.com/chuunyu, but even the posts I have there are barely scratching a scratch on the surface.
