There is the belief that people's souls can reincarnate after death. Commonly, reincarnations in fiction have the characters have the exact same appearance as in their past lives. However, in some cases, the new incarnation's gender can differ from their past life. Some cultures like the Hindu have a view on reincarnation that allows for gender to be changed during the cycle. So a man who dies could be reincarnated as a woman, and vice versa. This can be used for irony, like a Reincarnation Romance where a couple of lovers are reincarnated as the opposite genders. Or for even more fun, only one half of the couple is reincarnated as the opposite gender, leading to some awkward Incompatible Orientation or justification for If It's You, It's Okay. Bringing Past-Life Memories into play can make things significantly hairier. When regaining a small fragment of memories, having been the opposite sex usually makes things a bit stranger, but won't be a huge deal. A character retaining all their memories from the beginning effectively overlaps with Gender Bender, which the character may bemoan or accept. Harsher still is when they've lived as one gender and then gain a full life of memories as another, which is likely to cause psyche-shaking levels of Amnesiac Dissonance. Sub-Trope of Reincarnation. May overlap with The Nth Doctor. This trope is often used as a plot twist, which means beware of spoilers. Examples |

Eternals (2021): As part of the series' Soft Reboot, the Eternals were brought Back from the Dead in new bodies, with Sprite, Ajak, and Makkari being reincarnated as women. This was done to match up with the Gender Flips they'd received in Eternals. Flashbacks reveal that Ajak had also been female when she was first created millennia ago. | |

Angels on Earth-27 can undergo the Rite of Rebirth, which sometimes changes their sex and appearance. Since many angels don't like the idea of changing who they are, they only undergo the ritual sporadically or in dire situations, like being near death. | |

Two of these are a bald Black woman and an androgynous child in a wheelchair (of note is that the TV version of "Rose" was the debut story for the male Ninth Doctor). | |

In the Deverry series, all characters live many lives, though most are not aware of it. Characters usually reincarnate as the same sex, but there are exceptions: In the civil war storyline, the male Branoic turns out to be one of the incarnations of Brangwen/Jill, who is female in all other incarnations we meet in the series. In the final book of the series, the male Loddlaen is reborn as the female Dari. |

Final Fantasy XIV: The Dotharl Clan in the Azim Steppe that you encounter for the first time in the expansion Stormblood are a Proud Warrior Race who believe in reincarnation and therefore both have no fear of death as well as very equal gender roles — everyone is expected to be a warrior — as anyone can reincarnate as the opposite sex, they take the name of who they were believed to be in the past life too so names aren't gendered either. Their leader Sadu mentions she's lived past lives as both men and women before. | |

In So I'm a Spider, So What?, Katia was previously a Japanese schoolboy in her past life, and still retains her memories of it along with the rest of her reincarnated classmates — all of whom were reborn with the same genders they still had originally. It's implied that the being responsible for the reincarnation was aware of her previous self's crush on his male best friend, which is the reason why she was reborn as a girl. While still acting very boyish when with her friends, Katia has become very feminine in her own right and does learn to identify as a girl after a spell causes the final remnants of her original self to be erased. | |

Reborn to Master the Blade starts with the Hero-King Inglis on his deathbed and a goddess grants him a reincarnation wish for his heroism. As he regrets never truly becoming the best swordsman in the world due to his duties as king, he wishes to live his next life as someone who can focus on mastering their sword skills for their own sake rather than having to be a hero. He is reincarnated as the daughter of the Captain of the Knights decades in the future. | |

In Children of the Whales, Chakuro and Kikujin are revealed to be in a reincarnation cycle where the former writes records of the world's stories and the latter preserves said records in every lifetime. While Chakuro is a guy in all incarnations, Kikujin's incarnations can vary in gender (his current one is a little boy, but a flashback to a past life shows him as a grown man and another as a young girl). | |

Min-ki was a woman in the life Jie-um previously met him in and in his first life. Ji-eum tells Do-yun that not only were they married in her first life, she was the husband, which unnerves him. It turns out that Ji-eum was a woman in that life, but Do-yun was actually her twin sister. |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Main cast member Jadzia Dax, a woman, is the eighth Trill to host the Dax symbiont and has been both male and female in past lives. Dax's prior host, Curzon, was a Federation ambassador and Casanova whom Captain Sisko knew quite well as a younger officer. The complicated relationship of Trills to gender and sex is highlighted in "Rejoined", when Jadzia works with Lenara Kahn, another joined Trill. Dax's earlier male host Torias was married to an earlier Kahn host, Nilani, and their Old Flame relationship quickly complicates the episode's plot: Trill culture discourages "reassociation", i.e. resumption of romantic relationships between symbionts in new hosts. That Lenara is female was a deliberate choice by the production team and made this episode extremely well-regarded among Star Trek's LGBT Fanbase. |

Steven Universe: The male title character's unique relationship with his mother (a feminine but genderless alien) has elements of reincarnation, as she effectively gave up her life energy and power gem to him to give him life. He is also able to access certain memories and devices of hers. However, it is made clear that even if Steven can be considered a reincarnation, Death of Personality applies as he and Rose are clearly different people. | |

This is the big plot twist of Reincarnation (2005): the female protagonist discovers she's the reincarnation of the crazed professor who killed all the people in a hotel, including his own children, and then committed suicide to prove his theory about reincarnation. | |

While faeries are always female, and always reincarnate in female human bodies, as a balancing act, any non-faery creature that undergoes the process will always be male, regardless of the original gender. | |

In Camelot 3000, King Arthur is awakened from his sleep during an alien invasion. A number of Arthur's knights have been reincarnated, sometimes into distinctly different bodies (e.g., black, Asian, hideous mutant). Sir Tristan, quite a womanizer in his former life, is reincarnated as a young woman. The appearance of Isolde (also reincarnated, but still female) complicates the matter further, although they end up in a surprisingly sweet lesbian relationship. | |

In the 2011 revised version of On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, gay David Gamble goes to therapist Dr. Bruckner to stop his smoking habit and, through hypnosis, discloses his past life as 1940s jazz singer Melinda Wells. Bruckner finds himself falling for David's recollections of Melinda, but, as a straight man, is not attracted to the present David, despite them technically being the same person. David, who had fallen for Bruckner, is none too happy when he realizes this.note David is a Gender Swap version of the original protagonist, Daisy Gamble, but Melinda Wells remains female. | |

Star Trek: Trills are humanoids that can bond with worm-like symbionts with which they share their home planet. The symbionts can recall the memories of their past hosts and allow their current host to do so as well, but unlike their hosts are genderless which leads to the hosts remembering multiple past lives as all genders. Star Trek: The Next Generation: In the Trills' debut episode "The Host", Dr. Crusher develops feelings for a male Trill ambassador, Odan, who is then killed and has the symbiont temporarily implanted into Commander Riker until another Trill becomes available. The symbiont is then transferred into a female host, causing enough confusion between Odan and Crusher to end their relationship. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Main cast member Jadzia Dax, a woman, is the eighth Trill to host the Dax symbiont and has been both male and female in past lives. Dax's prior host, Curzon, was a Federation ambassador and Casanova whom Captain Sisko knew quite well as a younger officer.

Though initially angry, she takes to her new identity with gusto, but retains her access to male-exclusive magic. However, the setting's natural Reincarnation avoids this trope. | |

The Ultraverse: The main character of Mantra is a warrior employed by a wizard. He's continually reborn by having the wizard transplant his soul into a new male host whenever he died. At the start of the series, the wizard is betrayed and has only enough strength to move his most loyal warrior's soul one more time. He tells the warrior that this time it will be different. The warrior awakes to find himself in the body of a single mother. The series deals with him coping with this and having to learn magic to cope with his lack of martial abilities. | |

Lord of Light: The Masters of Karma regularly reincarnate ordinary individuals in bodies whose sex differs from the individual's gender, especially if they want to use it as a punishment. Those who have ascended to the Heavenly City, however, get to choose their sex with each new body; when he first confronts Sam and is forced to answer Sam's questions about the gods while sinking into quicksand, Yama mentions that the current Goddess of Dance at the time had previously been a God of War. Helba, the Monarch of Thieves, alternates sex with each incarnation. When Sam approaches her to steal his belt back from the museum of the gods, she initially refuses, stating that she doesn't perform thefts when female. |

Doctor Who: Time Lords are capable of regenerating across gender, which comes up several times throughout the Revival series: In "The Doctor's Wife", the Doctor recounts an anecdote about his old friend the Corsair, a renegade Time Lord who frequently shifted between male and female forms with each incarnation. Famously done, and Played for Laughs in the Comic Relief special; "The Curse of Fatal Death", with Rowan Atkinson regenerating through several other actors before ending as Joanna Lumley. At the end of "Dark Water", the Doctor learns that the Master has regenerated into a female incarnation, now going by Missy. She remains in this form until her next (offscreen) regeneration, returning to a male form during the Thirteenth Doctor's era. In "Hell Bent", the General regenerates into a woman after being wounded by the Doctor. Her following dialogue implies that most of her other incarnations were female as well. At the end of "Twice Upon a Time", the male Twelfth Doctor regenerates into the female Thirteenth Doctor, the first female depiction seen on-screen. She then regenerates back into a male form at the end of "The Power of the Doctor". In "Fugitive of the Judoon", she learns that she previously had another female incarnation in the form of the Fugitive Doctor. In the 2018 novelization of "Rose", Clive shows Rose photos of the Doctor's various incarnations, including ones from well into the Time Lord's future. Two of these are a bald Black woman and an androgynous child in a wheelchair (of note is that the TV version of "Rose" was the debut story for the male Ninth Doctor). |

Many characters in The Memory Wars remember past lives, and several have explicitly lived some lives as genders other than their current one. In Locked Within, one of Nathan's key memories is of his life as Katherine O'Reilly, a renowned monster-hunter whose lover was hanged, having been framed for murder. | |

A Tale of Two Rulers: It's implied to be uncommon, but the Triforce bearers can reincarnate as a different gender than usual. Gandondorf has the clearest Past-Life Memories of the three Triforce bearers. When he reveals himself to be an expert on pregnancy and childbirth, it comes from many lifetimes of fatherhood, plus a few of motherhood. Link's current incarnation is actually Princess Rinku, Zelda's daughter. Ganondorf hasn't realized the connection yet and Zelda wants to keep it that way. |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: In the Trills' debut episode "The Host", Dr. Crusher develops feelings for a male Trill ambassador, Odan, who is then killed and has the symbiont temporarily implanted into Commander Riker until another Trill becomes available. The symbiont is then transferred into a female host, causing enough confusion between Odan and Crusher to end their relationship. | |
