She's a Man in Japan	comment	Sometimes things get Lost in Translation, and occasionally this isn't so much lost as purposely altered. Sometimes the "thing" in question is a character's gender. Reasons for this are generally narrowed to six: To make the show more marketable to girls (especially to tomboys if they aren't likely to want to identify with a Girly Girl) when the original show had The Smurfette Principle in play; The Moral Guardians of the country the show is being translated for don't want a crossdresser or gay character in the cast (this is the most popular reason behind this trope, particularly in the case of Sailor Moon). Related to the above reason, the character looks too girly to pass for a male. The producers made a mistake. Sometimes, the character looked, sounded, and acted androgynous enough that picking a gender was basically a coin toss (and depending on the language, even pronoun choice may not be enough), and the translation team called wrong. Of course, when the character was simply mistaken for the opposite gender, this can lead to continuity problems and may or may not be fixed. The work is being translated into a language that uses the concept of grammatical gender for nouns, and the character's gender doesn't fit the grammatical gender of their name, so the translator changed their gender to keep it from sounding unnatural. This usually applies only to animals with a Species Surname, animate objects, and Anthropomorphic Personifications. The work is being translated into a language that uses a strict masculine/feminine grammatical gender, and the character is nonbinary. However, it should be said that nonbinary speakers of such destination languages still exist, and the fact they have to use either the masculine or the feminine grammatical gender to refer to themselves doesn't make them any less nonbinary. Compare Affirmative Action Girl, Hide Your Lesbians, and Getting Crap Past the Radar. Compare Gender Flip and Adaptational Gender Identity when adaptations, rather than translations, change a character's sex or gender. May result in Viewer Gender Confusion, as well as They Changed It, Now It Sucks!. Note that despite the title, this applies to changes in either direction in any language, not just male to female or overseas to Japan. The only possible inversion is if the writer gender-flips a character before the work is released.

She's a Man in Japan / int_11b7db91	comment	Adventure Time: BMO is an ambiguous-looking robot, has a small child's voice, takes on different gendered roles while playing pretend without any obvious preference, refers to themself using varying gendered terms depending on the episode (though masculine terms are more common), and has a counterpart in a genderflipped world who is completely identical. However, in the Mexican dub he is given a distinctive male voice and refers to himself exclusively using masculine terms, but any other show of gender ambiguity is kept, making BMO a borderline Camp Gay rather than a genderless machine. Something similar happened in the European and Brazilian Portuguese dubs, with him having a female voice actress—the same one for Princess Bubblegum—in the European one, and a male, childish, and slightly gender-neutral one in the Brazilian one. In the Polish and Russian dubs, Cake the Cat, the female counterpart of Jake the Dog, is referred to as a man and was renamed to "Pie", defeating the idea of the Gender Bender Alternate Universe the character originates from. In the Romanian dub, Cake sounds exactly like Jake in "Fiona and Cake". This is fixed in the other episodes. The Mexican dub gives Me-Mow a high-pitched but still distinctively male voice, and constantly refers to the (originally female) character to with male pronouns.

While this played all sorts of havoc with the Love Triangle — turning the gay crush into a heterosexual crush, and accidentally implying Lucy (Hikaru) to be bisexual — many fans of the series thought the strong performance by the actress and the change into a female military commander (with giant mecha and all) yielded a more interesting character overall.

She's a Man in Japan / int_28c6afce	comment	Rusty the diesel in Thomas & Friends ended up being female in the US narration of the 2005 series. Hit Entertainment skirted the issue by pointing out Rusty's gender had never been stated - a 1995 article indicates that Rusty was deliberately made gender-neutral, in response to the common complaints of gender bias on the show and its source material. Both The Railway Series books and the UK narration of Series 9 referred to Rusty as male, and the US narration was later re-recorded (and narrator Michael Brandon gave him a noticeably gruffer voice in the next few series). In the Greek dub of Seasons 2-5, Duck is made into a female named "Jackie." In the first Polish dub, Bill and Ben are similarly portrayed as females. The same was true for Bertie the bus. Narrowly averted with Edward in the US dub. He was going to be a female named "Alice" there, but he stayed male when the show officially debuted in North America. Played straight with Rheneas in the Indonesian dub of Season 11.

Since both of them have long hair and are voiced by female voice actresses in the original dub, they're easily mistaken for tomboyish girls, albeit their gender is made clear by later episodes (such as the Beach Episodes in the second season where they both wear swimming trunks and are bare chested, or season 3 onwards where they wear male school uniforms). The error was fixed in later episodes, where they are referred to with male pronouns.

She's a Man in Japan / int_2f3aa7ef	comment	My Little Pony: Essentially all ponies in the first cartoon, except for the six or so Stallions who popped up for one episode, were girls. In order to add more gender diversity to the cast, certain European countries made certain ponies into boys, typically the ponies with lower voices. Generally, in every language that has gender-specific adjectives, stallion toys are referred to with feminine ones. The Polish dub of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic makes both Spitfire (though only in Season 1, thankfully) and Little Strongheart into boys, for no apparent reason. (Granted, they're minor characters, but still...) Owlowicious the owl, on the other hand, is made into a female, perhaps because in Polish "owl" is a noun with a female gender. Not to mention that Polish translation of Big Macintosh's blind bag description says "She's very gentle". For truth's sake it seems that the Polish translator of the blind bags probably didn't know that ponies are also male, as the same treatment was also given in Noteworthy's, Meadow Song's and Chance-a-Lot's colector cards. The Hungarian version plays a very, very big role in this regard, as Derpy Hooves and Babs Seed were changed to males. The Macedonian dub makes Rainbow Dash and Applejack males. The Croatian RTL dub has Mage Meadowbrook in the season 5 premiere being referred to as a male. Justified, as in the original English script her gender is not mentioned and is instead only known in the comics and revealed in an episode from two seasons later, likely leading the translators to assume that Meadowbrook was a male character without supplementary information beyond season 5. The Italian dub of the episode "Discordant Harmony", the female owner of the tea shop is turned into a male.

She's a Man in Japan / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto: Yashamaru, Gaara's androgynous uncle that looks like his mother was made a woman in the Italian and Polish version of the manga (though apparently not the anime). Of course, in the versions where he wasn't changed, the only real way to actually know he was male was when either a character referred to him as such (especially the manga, where you couldn't even tell his gender by his voice) or due to his name. Supposedly Shiore, the grass ninja from the Chunin exam that was really Orochimaru in disguise, was changed from male to female in the English dub (he/she definitely did have a female voice actor). This is hard to say, as Shiore said little, was talked about little, and is incredibly androgynous. Incredibly, the decidedly female-looking Kurenai spoke in a male's voice at her first appearance in the first Hungarian dub. The second dubbing team payed more attention. In a few dubs of the anime, notably the Serbian one, Haku is referred to as female and has a female voice actor. Considering what he looks like this was probably intentional.

While she both looks somewhat boyish and is dead of old age by the time the story proper starts, the in-comic hints that Sigrun Larsen went on to marry her explicitly male friend Aksel Eide and is the great-grandmother of the explicitly female Sigrun Eide are left untouched.

In the Japanese script, Morpheus alternates between masculine and feminine language when describing themself. In the English translation, they are only ever referred to as "he" and never indicate a wish to be referred to differently. The Resident Evil wiki listed them as male for a long time, then after the Japanese script became more widely known, a decision was made to change all references to Morpheus on the wiki to use they/them pronouns and to list the character as genderfluid.

The dog Kubikuro was initially translated as female, only for the gender to be corrected mid-chapter to refer to him with male pronouns. The Brain in a Jar-controlled Sapient House Cyborg 0012 was originally powered by a woman's brain, while Tokyopop had the characters referring to 0012 as "he". Another example included an unnamed member of the Mythos team (who was christened "Hera" in the 2001 anime) who was intended to be a woman, but her androgynous appearance left the Tokyopop translators referring to her as a "he" as well. It's worth it to note that the official character guide refers to the character as "Woman Esper", but the translation team might not have been aware of that.

She's a Man in Japan / int_44127c7c	comment	Power Rangers/Super Sentai: When Saban Entertainment adapted Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger into the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, they took advantage of their flexible adaptation method to avert the Smurfette Principle by casting a woman as the Yellow Ranger. They'd repeat this trick in future seasons when necessary: Lost Galaxy, Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, and Wild Force, were adapted from "Pink (White with Pink accents for Wild Force) is the only female Ranger" Sentais, giving the male Yellow Rangers female counterparts. This is also why those Rangers don't have a skirt like their fellow female teammates, though many of these costumes were given skirts when worn by Luka Millify/GokaiYellow/Gia Moran/Super Megaforce Yellow. This was averted in several other seasons where the Japanese Yellow Ranger was female to begin with. The occasional villain or Monster of the Week has been voiced as the opposite sex of its Sentai counterpart, the most major recent example being Power Rangers Operation Overdrive's Crazar. Also, the Snow Prince was a female Heavenly Saint in the source material Sentai, same reason as Curio, whose Sentai counterpart's gender remains uncertain despite them being voiced by a woman (who even played them in a human disguise in one episode). Similarly, the effeminate young male Kyuemon Izayoi of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger (himself another case of Crossdressing Voices), became the adult woman Madame Odious of Power Rangers Ninja Steel. Behind the scenes, most of the suit actors, including the female Rangers and villainesses, are actually men. The reason the skirts are used is to hide the actor's package. The only time a female suit actor will be used is if the Ranger in question has a rather sizable bust (although more stuntwomen have been employed in recent years, while the cross-cast stunt actors now play mainly non-human villainesses and female monsters, whose armor-like costumes make it easier to hide that extra something). Although Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters wasn't adapted at the time, Amit Bhaumik's proposal for an adaptation of the series, Power Rangers Cyber Corps, would've invoked this trope for the PR version of Beet Buster, having the gold ranger be a 23 year old pop star named Kaya. This has a justification in Power Rangers Dino Fury as Izzy's Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger counterpart, Towa, was also a male. In the series, the original Dino Fury Green Ranger was a female with a skirt added to her uniform and this carried over to Izzy when she gained the powers. However, before she goes into battle, she reaches down and rips her skirt off, proclaiming "Skirts... are not my thing." Presumably the Green Ranger was chosen to be made female in America because this season had no Yellow Ranger, and the Green Rangers of some other recent Super Sentai seasons were female in Japan.

She's a Man in Japan / int_527a5949	comment	In the original Gatchaman, the villain Berg Kattse was a hermaphrodite, able to take on a male or female appearance. For the original dub into English, Battle of the Planets, the two appearances became two characters, twin siblings; Zoltar and Malanote Although "Mala" was only used for two of female Katse's appearances in that version. In two other episodes, she was a random agent called "S-9", and another referred to her as "Hannah". Neither of these apparent other women were given a familial connection to Zoltar.. However one of the last episodes shown in the US did have the scene where Zoltar/Berg is partially unmasked before escaping leaving the characters to wonder if Zoltar was a woman. Its possible if the US version had continued, they would've just said Zoltar was a female cross dresser. When Gatchaman II was adapted into Eagle Riders, the female (but very masculine voiced) villain Gel Sadra became the male Mallanox. When the character's gender became more obvious in the later episodes, Saban tried to rectify the error by giving Mallanox a feminine voice (except when in her costume) and referring to the villain with female pronouns. The French dub of Gatchaman II (Gatchaman: Le Combat des Galaxies) referred to Gel Sadra as "neither man nor woman", while referring to the young girl (Sammie) that she was mutated from as a boy. A Korean compilation film adaptation of Gatchaman II had Gel Sadra as a man, and had altered and redrawn footage of his origin: Instead of showing a young blonde girl being grown into the villain, it was a brunet boy named Marko.

To clarify, Tonka's Gobots toyline was based on models from Bandai's Machine Robo toyline. Machine Robo had its own anime series, but it had nothing to do with Hanna Barbera's Challenge of the GoBots. The Machine Robo anime came two years after Challenge of the GoBots was first aired in the United States.

She's a Man in Japan / int_5ce3fc86	comment	Crona in Soul Eater is intentionally of Ambiguous Gender, yet is referred to with male pronouns in the first official English releases of the manga and anime. In both cases, the translators acknowledge that Crona is supposed to be of either gender and admit that they themselves don't know which could be the right one, but because only Medusa has the jurisdiction of calling Crona "it", they had to pick a gender because dodging pronouns would lead to some very awkward sentence structure (Both were translated a few years before "they" became far more widespread as an ambiguous gender singular pronoun). The manga's English re-edition now updates Crona's pronouns to a neutral "they/them".

It was probably the translator's decision to have a girl cat paired with a boy dog in the comic. It becomes interesting when later in the comic strip's run Mooch is shown to be romantically interested in female cats. Mooch was never renamed in the translation, so to the readers the character appeared as lesbian.

This gave gamers the impression that Birdo was in fact transgender, an impression that has stuck ever since (in fact, several European sources such as the Super Mario Strikers website, Mario Tennis Aces and Super Mario Party still refer to Birdo as male). Several games refer to this while others keep it ambiguous.

She is usually portrayed with a deep voice, but in Super Mario Advance she was voiced by a female voice actress. Super Smash Bros.

Subsequent episode keep doing it as much as possible, albeit they're sometimes referred to with male-coded words when it's impossible to do otherwise.

She's a Man in Japan / int_6744d821	comment	The Owl House: The non-binary Raine Whispers has run into this problem in multiple different dubs, largely due to many languages lacking a neutralnote linguist-speak for "not male or female", which includes both gender-neutral and inanimate forms. grammatical gendernote In English, grammatical gender only manifests in the third-person singular pronoun (e.g. "he", "she", "they") and in loanwords from other languages. In other languages, there can be masculine and feminine nouns, different, gendered verb conjugations, and even different, gendered forms of "the", like in French, German or Spanish.. Here are a handful of examples, although there are probably even more than that: They are made male in both Spanish dubs. This could possibly be because gender-neutral pronouns don't really exist in Spanish. Originally, the Thai dub had Raine referred to as a male, but only because the dubbing team wasn't aware that they were non-binary. After receiving backlash, the dubbing team plans to rectify its mistake in the future. The Danish dub, where Raine is voiced by a male voice actor (Simon NÃ¸iers, who also voices Amity's brother Edric in the same dub), changes Raine's name to "Rainer", which is a boy's name in the regionally adjacent German language, and the character is actually referred to with a masculine pronoun in one sentence uttered to them by Eda in "Eda's Requiem": Original Danish However, later season 2 episodes fortunately avert this trope in the Danish dub, as outside of that aforementioned instance, Raine is always referred to with the Danish pronoun "de", which may be grammatically awkward, but is gender-neutral and in this case a very literal translation of the singular "they" pronoun used for the character in the original English version. The Italian dub, unable to use any gender-neutral pronoun, takes an alternate way by giving Raine a male voice but using female pronouns.

It is interesting that this gender change never conflicted with the story or caused confusion and as a result most people in the country consider the horse a female character. ...Until the #73th issue was translated, which was all about Jolly falling in love with a mare. To avoid making 'Dolly' a lesbian, the publishers decided to correct the horse's gender from that issue and onwards. Although to be sure Jolly Jumper's sex was a bit ambiguous to start with. The name "Jolly Jumper" can apply to both stallions and mares, the French generic word for horse, cheval, is grammatically masculine, and Jolly's general visual appearance lacks certain attributes (male genitalia tend to be very obvious in horses), making the horse appear female by default. In the German translations for the Kauka Verlag (1965-1973) Jolly Jumper was the mare Rosa. In later translations for the Koralle Verlag (1972-1978) and Ehapa Verlag (1977-present), Jolly Jumper stayed male.

In the German version of Mario Party 6, Brighton is female and Twila is male instead of it being the reverse in every other language. This is because, unlike in most languages with grammatical gender, the sun is considered female in German and the moon is considered male. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, most of the members of the Legion of Stationery are referred to without using gendered pronouns (since, as pieces of stationery, they all obviously lack a gender), with the only exception being Colored Pencils, who is clearly referred to as a male since he has an extended masculine name. As in some languages items are given genders, translations of the game in those languages follow suit. For example, in Italian Colored Pencils, Rubber Band and Sticky Tape are males while Hole Punch, Scissors and Stapler are females.

This went all fine and well, albeit with a little Ho Yay subtext, until the series hit a cluster of episodes including one that all but confirmed the main character's (current) biological sex as female. Those and later episodes retconned her back into a female, though the already dubbed episodes were not fixed. She was just plain turned male in the Hindi, Italian and Serbian dubs, with dialogue altered to explain away dodgy-seeming scenarios. Apparently, the initial Translator Gender Confusion just stuck.

She's a Man in Japan / int_89fd748e	comment	Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: Following that pattern is the March Hare, who is female in the Spanish version of the novel. A lot of times, when a language does not have gender-neutral pronouns, an animal will be referred to as a "he" or "she" depending on the "gender" of the word of the species if gender is unknown or does not matter. And in most Russian translations, not the Hare but many other male characters become female. When a female Caterpillar ("gusenitsa") smokes hookah, much of the Victorian age spirit of the book is actually lost. There is actually a very good Russian article complaining about this tendency - as it points out, there are a number of possible solutions (such as using the masculine "chervyak", Worm, like Boris Zakhoder did, or "shelkopryad", Silkworm), but alas, few translators bother.

When the character's gender became more obvious in the later episodes, Saban tried to rectify the error by giving Mallanox a feminine voice (except when in her costume) and referring to the villain with female pronouns. The French dub of Gatchaman II (Gatchaman: Le Combat des Galaxies) referred to Gel Sadra as "neither man nor woman", while referring to the young girl (Sammie) that she was mutated from as a boy. A Korean compilation film adaptation of Gatchaman II had Gel Sadra as a man, and had altered and redrawn footage of his origin: Instead of showing a young blonde girl being grown into the villain, it was a brunet boy named Marko.

Interestingly, the manga never changes either character's gender. Neither Zoisite nor Fisheye are gay men in the manga either...but they are both deliberately designed to be so androgynous they can easily pass for women. Zoisite in particular poses as a glamorous female scientist in one of his schemes to get the Silver Crystal, and Fisheye is listed in the artbooks as being the circus ball girl. Furthermore, their sexual preferences aren't elaborated on either - Zoisite being a former love interest for Ami in their past lives was scrapped before his first appearance and exists only as a concept in an artbook and some of the musicals. Fisheye attempts to seduce Ami, but only to kill her. And of course, the idea of them being bisexual is never ruled out. The anime clearly chose to run with their androgyny to the point of them being sexually attracted to men, but it didn't invent it from whole cloth either.

Strange since the artist drew girls with longer eyelashes than boys and Tate was usually shown standing next to his sister, Liza. Then again they are young Half-Identical Twins and even many gamers thought they were sisters. In comparison, the anime made Tate more masculine looking. PokÃ©mon: Diamond and Pearl Adventure! has an odd variation where Commander Saturn is referred to as female twice on one page, but male in every other instance. It becomes partially understandable when you realize that a few pages earlier he was drawn with broad hips, long eyelashes, and what appeared to be boobs. PokÃ©mon: The Series: In the French dub, the recurring Jigglypuff is a male. Its gender is vague in most other versions. Also, Ash's Chikorita was male in the Spanish dub (and he was in love with Ash...). Melissa from the Kanto League (the Trainer who eventually beat Gary before Ash did) is female in the dub. Not only is HE voiced by a guy in the Japanese version and a woman in the dub, from the side, he unmistakably looks like a guy, even having a masculine Japanese name (Yoshiki). Despite Ash's Staravia's gender being confirmed, he's female in the Czech dub and male everywhere else. It's even confusing where in Jumping Rocket Ship, he encounters what appears to be a Staravia with a girl's bow, as well as falling in love with her, thinking she's real. In many foreign dubs, PokÃ©mon have defined genders, since there are many languages that don't have ambiguous pronouns. A good example is the Brazilian Portuguese dub - there is no "it" in the Portuguese language, only "he" and "she". Therefore, all PokÃ©mon got genders. Usually they went with the everyone-is-male rule, unless the PokÃ©mon showed some attraction for someone of the masculine gender (Chikorita, for example). It's taken to the extreme in the Italian dub, where even Ash's Snivy and Iris's Emolga are referred as males, suddenly becoming females when using Attract. In the Hindi dub, Brock's Happiny was referred to as a male. Happiny cannot ever be male in the games. Hun from The Legend of Thunder special, causing quite a bit of frustration among fans.

Other times Kohaku was referred to as female (Tokyopop) or male (French Canadian?). Confusing the whole bit is the presence of the tightly-dressed cat demons, who look distinct from them and are very clearly female. The Spanish translations of Wish and RG Veda have turned the androgynous characters (Kohaku and Hisui in the former, Ashura in the latter) to feminine, too. Interestingly, Kohaku appears in the Japanese anime for Kobato.. Kohaku's female seiyuu has a VERY feminine voice and the animation is far less ambiguous than the manga artwork.

The various translations and adaptations have been inconsistent on Carlos's gender identity and pronoun preference. The official Light Novel translation from Yen Press regards Carlos as non-binary and uses "they/them". Crunchyroll's English subtitles of the anime adaptation treat them as an asexual male ("he/him"), while in the dub Oliver briefly referred to Carlos as a "him" in episode 8 (which in context could have just been Oliver's mistake: Carlos wasn't present to correct him), then had Godfrey (Carlos's best friend) use "they/them" in episode 15.

In their translation of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Astray, primary antagonist Rondo Ghina Sahaku is referred to as "she", "bitch", and "sister". No points for guessing Ghina's gender in the original manga. Their official website even refers to Ghina as "androgynous", which is technically true, but comes off as justification for their mistake. Amusingly enough, the official Japanese website quite distinctly marks Ghina with a male symbol, and voiced adaptations is played by the same person who played Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam protagonist Kamille Bidan - who was himself mocked for having a girl's name. Making it even more confusing is the fact that Ghina has a Half-Identical Twin sister, Rondo Mina Sahaku.

While the character is consistently referred to and speaks of herself as a female, the character's voice is obviously male (not to mention the translation itself is a voiceover so the original voices are heard in the background).

Like Carroll, Hofstadter wrote the Tortoise as male without thinking too much about it (because animals are Always Male). When GEB was translated into other languages, however, such as French and Italian, in which "tortoise" is a feminine noun, the translators made the Tortoise into a female character (Madame Tortue, Signorina Tartaruga). Hofstadter, who had subsequently become interested in the problem of sexism in language such as the male-default for characters in stories, was delighted by this. The episode is discussed in his book on translation, Le Ton beau de Marot.

The Russian language has a perfectly fine noun for "male cat" with no unusual connotations or anything, but the translators were going for a Woolseyism, since the word for "female cat" rhymes with a word meaning "the limp (female) one", while such a pun can't be created with the corresponding words with the male genedr.

She's a Man in Japan / int_d57d722e	comment	For some bizarre reason, the section of the English manual for Ōkami explaining some of the game's more esoteric references tries to claim that the game's version of Amaterasu is genderless. Why the manual does this when characters in the English version of the game constantly refer to Ammy as a female (as she is in the Japanese version and, for that matter, the original mythology) is inexplicable. It's possibly due to the fact Ammy openly ogles female characters including most notably Rao, to the point of ignoring Issun's warning because she's literally Distracted by the Sexy.

Also, Ash's Chikorita was male in the Spanish dub (and he was in love with Ash...). Melissa from the Kanto League (the Trainer who eventually beat Gary before Ash did) is female in the dub. Not only is HE voiced by a guy in the Japanese version and a woman in the dub, from the side, he unmistakably looks like a guy, even having a masculine Japanese name (Yoshiki). Despite Ash's Staravia's gender being confirmed, he's female in the Czech dub and male everywhere else. It's even confusing where in Jumping Rocket Ship, he encounters what appears to be a Staravia with a girl's bow, as well as falling in love with her, thinking she's real. In many foreign dubs, PokÃ©mon have defined genders, since there are many languages that don't have ambiguous pronouns. A good example is the Brazilian Portuguese dub - there is no "it" in the Portuguese language, only "he" and "she". Therefore, all PokÃ©mon got genders. Usually they went with the everyone-is-male rule, unless the PokÃ©mon showed some attraction for someone of the masculine gender (Chikorita, for example). It's taken to the extreme in the Italian dub, where even Ash's Snivy and Iris's Emolga are referred as males, suddenly becoming females when using Attract. In the Hindi dub, Brock's Happiny was referred to as a male. Happiny cannot ever be male in the games. Hun from The Legend of Thunder special, causing quite a bit of frustration among fans. However, he was never explicitly referred to as a woman in the English dub, he just had a female voice. He is unambiguously female in languages that are loaded with gender-specific words, though.

She's a Man in Japan / int_d7aab7c1	comment	Sailor Moon: Quirky Miniboss Squad member Zoisite was a flamboyant male mutually in love with the more masculine Kunzite (who was dubbed as Malachite) in the original anime, but was changed into the female Zoycite in the DiC dub (and most others) to make their relationship heterosexual, though this was averted in the 2014 VIZ dub, making him male again. At least the voice actress, the late Kirsten Bishop, was competent and gave "her" serious schadenfreude. In France, Zoisite and Malachite were brothers (Mexico went the DiC route and made "Ziocyte" female, but did keep Haruka and Michiru's romantic relationship); in the original manga the two were portrayed to have brotherly affection (if even that, given they barely interacted at all), so this change is probably the least of an alteration. The Swedish dub turned Zoicite into a woman due to the translator thinking he was a woman due to his feminine behaviour and looks and penchant for crossdressing. The Polish dub made him genderless, with a neutral voice and no pronouns! Fisheye was also made female, but it was pretty obvious that the change was made purely as an obligation to appease the moral guardians regarding his cheerful homosexuality; when posing as a fussy primadonna fashion model, "she" throws off "her" shirt, and no one comments on how flat "her" chest is, and no attempt at censorship was made to cover the exposed (if very understated) nipples. The dub DID censor Fisheye's exposed chest on subsequent airings, however the uncut DVDs use the same dub track that the TV airings use, so the uncut dub on DVD shows "her" exposed pectorals while still referring to her as female. Even still, there were several shots that made it obvious that Fisheye was suspiciously flat-chested, giving the impression that dub!Fisheye is trans female or intersex. In the Polish version, before becoming the fashion model, Fisheye announces that "she" will "become a man" for this task, making it look like "she" is capable of changing "her" sex. The real kicker about that one is that Fisheye is capable of changing his sex—or at least some incredibly convincing crossdressing. In one episode where he poses as a ballerina, not only is he an exceptional dancer, but also has some impressive "talent". The German dub kept Haruka and Michiru's romantic relationship (albeit toned-down), but still made Zoisite and Fisheye female. Interestingly, the manga never changes either character's gender. Neither Zoisite nor Fisheye are gay men in the manga either...but they are both deliberately designed to be so androgynous they can easily pass for women. Zoisite in particular poses as a glamorous female scientist in one of his schemes to get the Silver Crystal, and Fisheye is listed in the artbooks as being the circus ball girl. Furthermore, their sexual preferences aren't elaborated on either - Zoisite being a former love interest for Ami in their past lives was scrapped before his first appearance and exists only as a concept in an artbook and some of the musicals. Fisheye attempts to seduce Ami, but only to kill her. And of course, the idea of them being bisexual is never ruled out. The anime clearly chose to run with their androgyny to the point of them being sexually attracted to men, but it didn't invent it from whole cloth either. There had also been several occasions of a character's gender changed for no good reason. Tamasaburo from a filler episode of Sailor Moon S got changed into a girl in at least the Cloverway English and Russian dubs, in the first case due to a very brief crossdressing scene that would have been easier to cut, and Chibi-Usa originally had a crush on him ("cousins", eh?). Zirconia became male in some adaptations, even though she was female in Japanese (supposedly, her obsession with Nehelennia's beauty made her come off as a lesbian but she really IS Nehelennia, or at least the personification of her vanity). Queen Metaria got a male voice in the Russian dub, and was referred to as "King Metallia" (maybe the translators intended to make her a royal couple with Queen Beryl?). The Portugese dub wound up with some very amusing Ho Yay moments when they reversed the genders of the cats Luna and Artemis because of all the plots with Luna falling in love with human men and Artemis' ongoing crush on his owner Minako. What's really hilarious to note about Tamasaburo's gender change is that Rini's crush on him/her remains intact in the dub. Essentially Cloverway, the company that usually tries horribly to hide lesbian relationships, created a new one. Of course, Japanese Tamasaburo looks like this and is voiced by a woman using a grown-woman voice and not a little boy voice. It's easy to miss his gender note (especially if you don't know about Japanese naming conventions where his name is the main clue as it ends in the kanji "éƒŽ" -ro meaning "son") until the very last line in the episode, where "Sailor Tamasaburo" gives his version of Sailor Moon's introductory speech, but "bishojo" is replaced with "bishonen" in his version of the full title. In the French dub, the secret identity of Sailor Uranus has a male voice, which changes to female after transforming. Oddly, their name is "Frederique", whereas the male spelling of the same name would be "Frederic". In the Italian dub, it was claimed for one episode, and one episode only (188), that the Sailor Starlights were calling upon their twin sisters (which raises many unanswered questions), instead of transforming from their male civilian identities as the boy band the Three Lights to their female Sailor Guardian selves. Cloverway worked around it by... never getting the license for the final season (the one the Starlights appeared in). The Russian dub of Sailor Stars left the Starlights as they were (male in civilian form, female when transformed — with two sets of voices, even)... and added the same quirk to poor Haruka, who was voiced by a man in civilian form. The best part is that this change made no sense: Haruka was already acknowledged to be female (and in relationship with Michiru) in the third season, which was translated several years before by a different company; apparently, the new translators were not familiar with the previous translation — let alone the original — considering how many names and spells were screwed up in the transition. Because they aren't targeting youth-oriented television (only video and on-demand which are both intended for older viewers), Viz's new English dub can safely avoid the trope and stay true to the original Japanese characterizations.

This was more of a case of guesswork, however, as Lopmon usually speaks using an outdated and gender-neutral dialect and has a female voice actor, forcing the localization team to just take a guess and roll with it. Much later in the anime, however, there is a scene of Xiaochun (known as Suzie in the English dub) trying to get Lopmon to use a masculine "I" pronoun, indicating that Lopmon is likely perceived by the characters as a boy. But by this point the dub had already aired episodes where Lopmon is referred to as a "she" several times.

She's a Man in Japan / int_ec28245c	comment	Many European translations of Dragon Ball Z initially refer to Zarbon as a woman, and have him randomly change sex in vol 23. Since all of them are based off each other, and none of them bother changing dialogue in reissues of older volumes, the error keeps sticking around. The Filipino dub goes so far as to rename "her" Zara. The Greek dub turns Frieza into a female and casts a female voice actress for her. Technically Puar is this in the English dub, being referred to as "she" a couple times, but in the Japanese version Puar only had Ambiguous Gender and the character was only even confirmed male by Word of God. Dodoria became a woman (granted, with a very deep voice) in the Hungarian dub, probably due to "her" pink color, big lips and feminine-sounding name. Frieza also almost became a female, as his name was at first rendered as "Dermesztina" or "Freeze-Tina", but they switched to the gender-neutral "DermesztÅ‘" ("Freezer") before the character actually appeared, and when he did, he got a male voice. For the record, Zarbon was voiced by a male in this dub, though he softened his voice so much that his gender became indeterminable. Also Korin the cat from the same dub. Not only did he get a female voice, he was also referred to as a woman in the dialog. Korin was also a female in the French dub and the obscure European "Big Green" English dub of the movies.

She's a Man in Japan / int_ef4fd083	comment	The Brave Little Toaster: The German, Polish, Brazilian 1996, Serbo-Croatian, Russian TV, Slovak, and Czech 1992 dubs made Lampy into a girl. (In the Brazilian 1996 dub she's a Tomboy and in the German dub she's a Girly Girl, with the Polish version fitting nicely in the middle). Blanky also counts, because 'blanket' is female in some countries. The Toaster has a gender confusion controversy, causing many fans to think the Toaster is either male or female. Ironically, while the Toaster is referred to as "he" in the movies, "his" voice actress Deanna Oliver calls the Toaster "she" and "her." The gender also varies in several countries, as most dubs have him voiced by women, with the exception of the Latin Spanish, German, Finnish, Persian, Russian, Slovak, and Serbo-Croatian dubs, which have him voiced by a male actor. The German dub of the sequels inconsistently avert the gender swap. Also in several foreign dubs (ex. Polish, Hungarian, Danish), the 'Mish-Mosh' (a Joan Rivers parody) is male. In the Hungarian and 2nd Brazilian Portuguese dubs, the Hearse in the 'Worthless' segment is female. Also, the Tan Car is female in the Latin Spanish, Russian, and Hungarian dubs, while in the Danish, Icelandic, and Brazilian Portuguese (1st and 2nd versions) dubs, the Wood-Sided Wagon (a.k.a. the Surfer Car) is male.

In the first Hungarian dub (translated from the English version, not the Japanese), Override started out as a male, but no one noticed the weirdness because of the gender-neutral pronouns. Then Bud referred to "him" as a "chick" at one point. The show took a long break without any new episodes airing, and when it continued, Override became female, and other characters also received new voices. In most foreign dubs of the Optimus Prime vs Megatron: The Ultimate Battle DVD special, given away with toy purchases outside the US, Thunderblast delivers a line with a male voice in a shot where she's shown from the back.

The fact that the Japanese dub was a Gag Dub doesn't help matters. It also turned out more than a little bit weird that Airazor and Tigatron got paired up just before they got fired into space. (Lampshaded with Rattle wondering what their deal was immediately afterwards.) In the Japan-exclusive Beast Wars: Metals manga, she was changed back to female, but also barely engaged in combat and acted as a subservient fangirl to Tigatron. In one Russian dub, male Waspinator became female Buzzer, possibly because the Russian word for wasp, "osa", is feminine.

She's a Man in Japan / int_fd49a48d	comment	Poison the "punk" girl member of the Mad Gear Gang from Final Fight who later becomes Hugo's manager in Street Fighter III is actually a male-to-female trans woman in Japanese, although most people didn't know that at the time since her sex was only mentioned in the Japanese manuals for the home versions. When a Capcom USA team decided to do Final Fight Revenge, they had Poison develop a romantic interest towards Cody, likely unaware that she was male-assigned-at-birth. The Japanese localization of Final Fight Revenge corrected this by stating that Poison was biologically male, but kept the romantic subtext anyway. When Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono was asked about this in an interview, he clarified that Poison was pre-op in Japanese, but that she was a post-op transsexual in English, and then changed his mind saying there is no official answer. Poison's convoluted situation inspired a fan-made documentary that tries to clear up the subject.
