Is Super Mario’s Luigi a trans woman?

by

Fans of Super Mario Bros. have leapt on a new revelation from Nintendo to declare Luigi as a trans woman. In describing the Super Crown bonus item in the Nintendo Switch game New Super Mario Bros.

Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac

In summer 2019, Netflix will release its remake of the ‘80s- and 2000s-era anime classic Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac, an animated series about five cosmic warriors defending Earth against vengeful Greek gods.
