\\\"I haven\\\'t seen any evidence to suggest that Hanji is male.\\\" I haven\\\'t seen any suggesting they are female.

The \\\'visible bust line and skirt\\\' argument isn\\\'t exactly airtight. Shingeki no Kyojin stands out, among other things, for its representation and treatment of queer characters. Is it really that hard to believe that it also includes a trans* character?

Hanji looking stereotypically feminine in that preview was done to fit the cliched story being parodied. If it had featured a male character, it would have been exactly the same.

If you read the manga in Japanese, or even listen to the anime, you\\\'ll notice that Hanji is always referred to with gender-neutral language. As you might know, that sort of thing is generally used for characters whose gender is supposed to be ambiguous.

One last thing. Referring to Hanji with gender-neutral pronouns allows for them to be female. Using female pronouns leaves out any other possibility. The way I see it, the former covers all the bases.
