Why did the translation change Hikaru's pronouns and only refer to him as they/them when that's incorrect? Hikaru has always been he/him originally. Is this a translation error?

Also, I'm literally dropping this if the FL doesn't end up with Hikaru. Does anyone have any spoilers so I can be assured?? ╥﹏╥

    Hmm, that would be very odd bc they/them pronouns don't exactly exist in Japanese, only in English. Pronouns work very differently in Japanese. Plus, Hikaru is a cisgender male who just likes crossdressing and isn't trans

    But then that's inaccurate. I'd rather the translator put an asterisk with a long ass note like that one all acordijg to keikaku scene lmao cause otherwise that's how we got the whole world thinking mineta was in love with Midoriya

    each translator translates differently. not everyone used asterisks.
