why i think saiki k is queercoded: a thread https://twitter.com/saikihotpocket/status/1316247372402503685">https://twitter.com/saikihotp...

.
the disastrous life of saiki k is an anime about 16 year old Saiki Kusuo getting through high school while also being a psychic!! saiki is a very antisocial teen but still cares deeply for the people around him +

and a major part of the plot is saiki trying to avoid the affection of teruhashi komoki and imu rifuta (imu explicitly states she& #39;s into teruhasi, the gays are winning) and saying that he "doesn& #39;t understand romance" (& some other emotions) +

and he shows extreme dislike for being touched or any affection at all. as compared to many other male characters in the show who are very motivated by girls/dating and some are huge pervs (like reita torisuka) +

this leads me to believe that he is asexual and aromantic !! the idea that aromantics or asexuals need to be "fixed" is so disgusting if you& #39;re asexual and/or aromantic ur so valid and ily. saiki doesn& #39;t need to date in order to be a good mc +

he is also canonically trans and can turn into a girl (which he does a few times) but he identifies more as a boy. near the end of the anime there are slight hints that he likes teruhashi (who has a massive crush on him) but im not sure what& #39;s happening there honestly +
