    i genuinely think loran has some gender going on, but because it's the early 20th century he doesn't have any of the language to express it, and so it just manifests as him being completely fine with dressing up as laura from time to time

      The deep lore is that Loran was Tomino's 2nd attempt at a girl protagonist and the suits deep-sixed that idea again. What we ended up with's probably better tho.

        I was going to steal this Loran concept art from a Moon's Cocoon post (Spoiler Warning - all of Turn A Gundam for that site), but then I started thinking "Damn, what if Loran was originally a girl disguised as a guy in an early draft galaxy-brain":

        I like how the one in the bottom-right looks like Sochie.

        Anyways, the goofing with gender stuff was definitely planned from the start in Turn A. Such a fantastic show!
