@@yttikitty That’s interesting. It kinda makes sense that she’s the caterpillar because he’s blue and her outfits are blue, and the cigarette thing too that both of them have.
i love how she gained strength from her mother in that last moment, she was able to endure the pain of stepping on broken glass to take her stance. i rewatch that a lot....its a very powerful moment. the power of a mother's love
@@jrmy__ I love spoilers, yes please - I’m hoping you’ll say she’ll survive and I’m not being sarcastic. My friends makes fun of me for reading spoilers before starting a movie or tv series.
I really wish she was played by a trans actress but I doubt there are many trans actress in Japan considering it’s stance on lgbtq. Anyways she slayed the character
@@madeleine7308 right but im glad they made a bold move and made a trans character, we love the representation especially being from a country where the LGBTQIA+ Communitty isn't very much accepted
@@madeleine7308 ridiculous. if the actor can pass for the role, then the best actor wins. it's not like race, where you can just cast a white guy as Obama, or a black guy as Washington, or Matt Damon as a Japanese emperor... that simply doesn't work. But for trans or gay characters, as long as the actor can act the role, then they deserve it.
I wish this series would get more hype, I love Kuina and Asahina Aya. What I’m scared of is the (mostly) western radicals would be quick to point out “mis-representations” in this series. Im already seeing some comments about it. I’m trans (mtf) and I am totally fine for a cis female to play a trans character. She did a fantastic job. Even though I already know about it in Manga, I think it still gave an element of surprise in the live action series.
I had no idea she was trans before watching this show. And I was thinking of trans representation in media randomly then suddenly her backstory comes on and I was shook af. I also cried because I related too it.
Aya Asahina/Kuina Hikari really hits different. She always makes me question my sexuality. She's soooo fine! She and Chishiya Nijiro Murakami are my fave characters in the series! They really hit different!
I keep seeing comments about "i was attracted to her, then found out she was trans". I've got three things to say about it. First off, look at her. Very feminine and fine as f. Second, from the back stories on the characters I've read, she's post op. So you don't have to worry that you'll need to "learn anything new" if you got with her. Third, just stop already. And appreciate her for the beauty and the badass she is. I'm a straight cis guy, and I've never been with a trans girl. Regardless if I was in Borderland, and I met her, I'd be interested and go for it. And if that makes me bi or something, whatever. (shrugs)
Trans women are women. If you’re attracted to trans women, you’re straight. Being attracted to women is more than just an overwhelming love of inverted junk. Claiming to need to know what’s in someone’s pants to be attracted to them is pretty weird if you think about it. How often in non-Tinder world are you like “I’m sorry, I need you to yank your pants down before our date, I just need to know it’s the size/shape/color I’m attracted to.”
Her actress is a cis woman. It does not make you bi for being attracted to a cis woman playing a trans girl. Not even saying this to be mean but most trans girls look very different from cis women aside from the rare exceptions who have transitioned early
2:32 I can't forgive myself I skipped this moment while watching show, and noticed it only in tiktok clips... Neverthless, she became my favorite character ❤
*Hell yeah they are damned gorgeous girls and boys in that show! But the one that I love the most and am obsessed with is Aguni. He is so freaking handsome and hot!*
Imagine being so gorgeous and confident you’re able to spend the entire series in a bikini
@Keys andFood 'knocker monster' made me giggle thank u
FRRRR
she's a model in real life so I bet she really have high confidence
And Chishiya's trying not to look at it✋
Ya, most of them wear 1 outfit throughtout the series, maybe washing machine didnt work in that world and most of them too lazy to wash it themselves
The best plot twist she's the caterpillar who turned into a butterfly... The blue caterpillar who loves puffing smoke
OH MY GOD.
I was wondering what character she represented!!! Thank you so much!
OH MY GOSH!! HOW AWESOME!
Yessss also usagi represents the white rabbit and chisiya the cheshire cat
But isn’t her name Kuina aka “Queen”
@@yttikitty That’s interesting. It kinda makes sense that she’s the caterpillar because he’s blue and her outfits are blue, and the cigarette thing too that both of them have.
she's strong and cute at the same time
epic transgenda
She huh
CONFUSION OF DA HIGHEST ORDA!!
Im straight and have a gf but Kuina is the kind of trans I'm totally fine to date even if I know she's a trans
japanese girls hits different
i love how she gained strength from her mother in that last moment, she was able to endure the pain of stepping on broken glass to take her stance. i rewatch that a lot....its a very powerful moment. the power of a mother's love
I mean she’s been walking on glass her whole life, with all that’s happened to her in her life
Yes it really made me cry
Even her Dads words never spare final blow
Yeah, I really liked how she met up with her mom at the end. I cried when her mom called her beautiful :"''')
@@dexpuppyuwu right
2:32 best scene ever
LOL I came here for that.
fr
Agreed lmao
I found it so funny omg 😭😭
Exactly!!
We can all agree everyone in the beach are fine AF
YESSS
Yes
I would legit feel insecure while they're having fun 😭
@@luxurybrbie3426 same here. Especially with this rule of having to wear a swimsuit...
*Hell yeah they are! But the one that I love the most and am obsessed with is Aguni. He is so freaking handsome and hot!*
Not even 10 mins of screen time and she became my favorite character
she actually did have more than 10 mins but i get ur point some scenes in this were cut short
@@hamdahmed3207 they meant that she became their fav in 10 mins
It took likely to her character when she stood her ground with sword guy. I like how she defended arisu
The way she winked at Last Boss I laughed so hard cuz he looked so confused 😂
Best character, easily my favorite - they better not kill her in the second season or else...
Want a spoiler? lmao
@@jrmy__ yes please 🤪

@@Peanutwhiskers77 i heard from manga readers that she'll survive tho im not sure
@@hoshiuno7530 I hope so 🥺
The boy who portrayed kuina when she was a boy is actually, itagaki rihito AND HES ASORABLE
I KNEW IT!!
No wonder he look familiar.
Yeah, i was "oh, he looks pretty familiar" and i find out that is Rihito. He's a baby
you mean the actor who portrayed the younger version of kuina?she was never a boy
@gaydazai Did u even watch the show? It's literally the reason why she left her home, cause her father felt disgraced.
Best character, one of the best actress in the series too. I hope aya asahina gets more roles, she was freaking awesome
She is my fav female chara on the series...I love her more than usagi...
@@alagadniruby9909 do you even know what transgender is?
@@alagadniruby9909 highly transphobic
i love them both
@//i forgot who i was replying to 😔 she's a female nonetheless, idrk what you're trying to prove? uhmm ig you're stupid

@@alagadniruby9909 You forgot the S at the start. Np np np
In the story its a he
at first her braids made me love her character but after the fight with last boss i'm now obsessed ✨
Me 2
She and chishiya both have only 10 minutes of screen time throughout the entire series
And yet they stole the shirt
Auto correct? I think u meant show, honestly it’s so annoying when auto correct does that
In season 2 Chishiya had around 20 minutes of screen time!
7:49 the way i sobbed so hard when i first saw that scene. Her mother's acceptance but pain because she has been gone for so long.
2:31 you're welcome!
queen of the whole series ngl
Bro BOTH OF THESE TWO I SIMP FOR THEM CHISHIYA AND KUINA
Bro same
Androgyn beauties
This actress fit to be nami i guess if one piece become live action

Edit: they're dreads :)
*dreads
Ikr her dreads are really nice and I know that alot of people may disagree but I think they look nice on her ....sort of give her an edge
I really love the dreads on Kuina. The colors and how it's put up ❤
they’re dreads
I’ve always thought that they suit her so well
best transgenda character
Not in real life tho
@@tashii4977 That's why "character is in the sentence"
Too bad they didnt get an actual trans person
@@rumblefish9 who cares
@@rumblefish9 she still slayed the character
and we love and appreciate her alot !!
She’s so fine I can’t-
The way shes so confident about her gender identity makes me so happy 🥺🥺 GO GIRLIE GO
7:08 BEST SCENE EVERRR
I had no idea she was trans before watching this show. And I was thinking of trans representation in media randomly then suddenly her backstory comes on and I was shook af.
I also cried because I related too it.
Shes a Woman y real life. Shes just playing a character..
@@FranJav507 ik, I was talking abt the character
@@FranJav507 trans women are women. and even if the actress isn’t trans herself. the character is still representation.
@@_joooie Not for me son Sorry
@@FranJav507 transwomen are women cry about it
Top tier character right there, her personality was the coolest and also definitely the most beautiful one too.
She is honestly SO gorgeous!❤
The best pair. Kuina x Chisiya.
i fr rooted for them in s2
Aya Asahina/Kuina Hikari really hits different. She always makes me question my sexuality. She's soooo fine! She and Chishiya Nijiro Murakami are my fave characters in the series! They really hit different!
*the best actual representation of a transgender character* ☺️👌🏻
best character hands down.
I LOVE HER!!! My favorite! Her fight scene was AMAZING!
Edit: is that tattoed guy really dead though? I mean we didnt see him really die.
U talking bout last boss? That's what I'm thinking too! I mean he's inside the burning beach but they didn't show his death.
In manga he really did die.
@@wakakabravo7998 and that's why i don't want to spoil myself by reading the manga :
@@wakakabravo7998 huhuhu! But yeah it is okay...
is it just me who is obsessed with her winking? i really love her, shibuki and usagi :D
she’s so cool i cannot
I love the plot
The plot:
I'm gay for her, the actress of kuina is sooo beautiful omg
she is just a good character and deserves more screen time, excited to see her in s2 - also maybe a karube scene pack if your up for suggestions ?!

Don't worry, that makes you perfectly straight. Nothing about transwomen is masculine at all.

Thought she was biting a sharpie throughout the season lol
BYE NOT A SHARPIE 😭😭
Thought it was a hookah tip 😂
Short scenes so far from her but one of the best character development ....
2:30 best part
That head kick KO was beautiful.
im literally so whipped for her oh my god
