I need to bathe in holy water after this, forgive me for my sins, 神さまお願いします Personally, I think that unless the creators choose to fully enforce the trap’s gender by showing opposite gender-like behavior, opposite gender-like body structures or such like in Himegoto where Hime, being a boy, has been repeated shown with his, pardon my french, ‘appendages’ being blatantly shown to the viewer which 100% clinches the gender of this trap being a boy. However, looking past those characters and focusing on pure fanservice traps, like their name suggests, they are meant to ‘trap’ the viewers and while otakus have their waifus, they are more hesitant on liking traps if it is considered to be gay which is still, a delicate subject since it reflects your gender preference. While it is pretty clear for the majority of traps that their true gender will always be there, characters like Seiko and Ruka are outright said to be transgender as they have literally changed their genders in which their genders would permanently be changed to that of a GIRL. ICEBREAKER IDEA: Slap a wig on someone and see if they turn into a girl While I am guilty of liking traps just because their personalities are the quirkiest and most interesting of the cast of characters, in fact, my friend had even stated that she had a tendency to root for the trap despite knowing that there was no hope for them in the plot as they were just a mere side character.

I do hope that this is enough to please your daily trap needs because I’m about to collapse from exhaustion with the revelations of the traps’ true gender, so let’s move on before I break down and start questioning my life existence.Īs you can tell, the sole purpose of a trap is to provide fanservice or in some rare cases when the character is meant to be androgynous and their gender not mattering to the story. I know right, I did not realise it until I found Kino’s name on a trap list Kuranosuke Koibuchi from KURAGEHIMEĪpparently, so does everyone in anime nowadays! Not gonna lie, I did think Nagisa was a girl for a couple of episodes I mean, look at him! He puts the female species to shame! Kino from KINO NO TABI: THE BEAUTIFUL WORLD

Technically, he did become a girl so…reverse-reverse trap? Maruruk from MADE IN ABYSSĭo you know why he’s hiding? BECAUSE HE’S A TRAP! Nagisa Shiota from ANSATSU KYOUSHITSU

I was not expecting this at all when watching Lovely Complex, honestly, it caught me off guard as I thought she was going to be the annoying, perfect, pretty love rival in every shoujo anime Ruka Urushibara from STEINS GATE
