We spent much of the time watching wondering that, actually. So, she is a female? Anime is wierd like that.

Are you into comic books at all? I know a comic that's not to dissimilar... :)

I think it took me about six episodes to realize she was a female. She's very androgynous.

I used to be into comics somewhat. I haven't had time to read too many lately. :(

She is. But that's cool. I'm very into androgyny.

Well, if you ever get a chance, I highly recommend a series called Distant Soil. They're independently made, and they started in the eighties, so it's kind of hard to find, but if you do, it's lots of fun. Psychic abilities and Alien races. Lots of andrygony, too. :)

I'll have to look for those. Thanks! :D
