Stop! Hibari-kun! Is a problematic, but also iconic anime from the early 80s. In this episode, we dive into the story of Hibari Oozora, a charismatic and fearless trans girl who doesn’t take any nonsense from anyone. Hibari’s boldness and charm challenge societal norms with humor, heart, and some much needed violence, making her a standout character in anime history. We’ll discuss the series’ unique blend of comedy and drama, its cultural impact, and why it remains a beloved gem in the trans anime community.
