I'm only two episodes in and the art style and action scenes are amazing and the protagonist is definitely a trans man out for revenge against his white womanizing colonizer father.

I don't think the show will ever come down hard on trans guy, but Mizu is definitely trans coded. At every point in the show where Mizu has the choice to let people refer to him as female he violently opposes it, excepting one bit that I read as clearly going into the closet; and it only gets more transy as that arc ends.
This is exactly my take as well. At LEAST it is Trans coded but it read pretty explicitly to me as a definitely 100 percent cis guy I swear...
