I don't think they will bully author all the way this time.It'll be like Black Butler all over again. Where spergy Westerners harass a creator on twitter to make a character canonically transgender. It's no wonder that more and more Japanese fans get increasingly pissy when Western "fans" start showing up in Japanese online spaces and make demands. I hope someone brings this to the author's attention and that she decides to raise a stink about it.
Some people have contacted the author, so author just tweets this.
Seven Seas acknowledge the feedback.
This part below is just more twitters defend and against Seven Seas.
Fellow translators defend Seven Seas, feat a tranny coping (MtF) and this Meru person I keep noticing everytime there is localization/translation drama.
There also from people leaning left (pronouns in twitter profile kind and politics retweet) agree with the translation criticism, an EN translator for Nikkei and a Japanese literary translator. The latter is trans (FtM) unlike the previous one above, so this translation/localization drama really takes off.
