Transgender "Comics": "Ouran High School Host Club"

I debated on this one for a little while; it's not a comic, and it's not particularly transgender. However, it is available on YouTube and it shows a different culture of cross-gender thoughts, so it's actually a perfect fit for the column.

Ouran High School Host Club follows Haruhi's adventures as an unwilling, stealthy member of the Host Club, a group dedicated to throwing elaborate parties to entertain rich women. Unwilling, because she is paying back a debt; and stealthy, because she's a girl dressed as a boy.

I absolutely love this anime!  It totally plays on and makes fun of popular JP literary stereotypes and is hilarious (if you are familiar with the stereotypes).  I would hardly call it transgendered though.
Ill no longer be defined by my condition. From now on, I'm just, Kate.
