The title is partially a joke but I mean trans characters who aren't 'good' people or otherwise show the messier parts of being transgender. A lot of trans characters end up just 'being trans' and it isn't a major part of their character or arc. I don't think this is necessarily bad, but, as a trans person, I love it when media shows the parts of being trans or how gender dysphoria sucks

Jax (TADC) - In episode 9 of The Amazing Digital Circus, it is revealed that Jax was a closeted transgender woman. Throughout most of the series, Jax was abusive to many other members of the circus and put up a facade of not caring. She gets very defensive when Pomni starts to get close to her and pushes her away. This behavior isn't entirely due to her gender dysphoria, as the abuse she suffered at the hands her mom certainly played a massive role, but it contributed.

Togata (Fire Punch) - Togata is transgender man, problem is, he has the blessing of regeneration so he can't undergo any type of sugery or other medical procedure that would allow him to transition. Pair this with being alive for 300 years and his dysphoria is pretty bad to say the least. Admittedly I'm not super familiar with Fire Punch so correct me if I'm wrong, but he also puts up a cold, unfeeling exterior and is really only vulnerable to Agni.

If only I were alive and programming in 1980
