** Later, he uses this as rationale for him performing Topa's reassignment surgery: as he is not a Union officer, he is not bound by regulations or orders and can thus perform the surgery without being punished for it.

* EasySexChange: {{Justified}}: the state of Union medical science makes gender reassignment surgery an outpatient procedure that Isaac is able to perform in an hour or two. The primary concerns about the surgery are not the performance of ot, but rather the fact that only parent is consenting and the Moclans could leave the Union over it.

* DisobeyedOrdersNotPunished: Admiral Howland is forced by the political situation to royally chew out Ed and Kelly for disobeying orders, and the loophole abuse just making them look incompetent. But there is no punishment, and once the official speech ends she says "please give my regards to the Moclan girl".

Original post seemed unnecessarily hostile; there's nothing shameful about being born intersex.


* AnAesop: Topa is depicted as transitioning from male to her true gender identity of female and is much happier afterwards. This mirrors how in present day Earth intersex babies are often altered as a baby to only appear to be only male or female. Later in life this can make these people feel like their body does not match with who they are and causes them to resent having a cosmetic surgery without ever having a choice. Being born intersex on Earth is almost as shameful as being born female on Moclus.

* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Topa states this as the reason he wants to join the Union fleet, that he feels like a bookmark for a real person. This ends up being the first big hint to Kelly that [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness something is very wrong]] and Topa needs help.
