What is it with Tomino and crossdressing?
Where do you think Guin got his crossdressing fetish?

It makes for comedy. Whether it's good or not is up for personal interpretation, but it's certainly an easy route to it.
He has taste
>implying it's specific to tommyknow
it permeates every culture.
go watch some looney toons.

Prettymuch this.
Over the course of his work it's something he's gone to only a small handful of times, usually only for an episode or two, and Loran and MAYBE Gainer aside, it's played for laughs.

Kelsey Grammer pls go.
I don't think it's a specific fetish of Tomino's or anything. It really only shows up a handful of times in his work.
He's not really as blatant with his fetishes as some directors and creators.
Like the total shotacon that did the first three Brave shows, Katsuyoshi Yatabe.

I don't think it's only for comedy. There's a certain amount of gender role subversion that Tomino is obviously going for. At a base level yea, it's also meant to make little kids laugh, but it's also meant to make little kids reflect a little too on why they're laughing, or why they perceive to be men's and women's roles in society.

Yeah every time he shows a leopard jumping out of his spots he's making kids think "is this not what makes this animal unique? Yet we are making these animals extinct with our global warming and endless conflicts". Tomino is truly 2deep4us

In a case like Loran, maybe.
In a case like Judau or Gablet...nah, man. That's straight up playing to comedy.

Have you looked at the guy? It's surprising he doesn't have fetishes even more extreme.
>>13832009
Loran's crossdressing is played for laughs too. The first scene is Kihel scolding him in a matronly manner for not being ladylike enough as he tries to master various tasks like balancing a book on his head as he walks and dancing with a strawman. He's also forced to dance with Harry while at the party despite his reluctance among other things. He also has some action scenes while dressed as Laura, but it's very obviously played for laughs at times too.

Tomino's fetish?
The most glaring one is his love for brown/black skin and we're all better for it.
>>13832116
Oh and licking/lickable pussies, but that should go without saying and in no way extreme.
Well, maybe except for the extent that he makes sure the characters have that quality.

Do these shotas ever pair up with older girls?
>>13832040
>>13832212
I didn't realize he made Boku no Pico, nevermind.
>>13832212
He seems to more favor shota-on-shota, if his most well known non-Brave work is any indication.
>>13832240
Pretty sure he's big into the hole boy-on-boy stuff.
Y'know, I guess it's a pretty good credit to most of the big /m/ anime directors in the sense that I can really only think of one dude who puts his niche fetish into his work.
I can think of a lot of comics artists and writers who shove their fetish into their work. Directors too. But not a lot of m/ guys.
