It's been forever since I've watched Aoharu x Kikanjuu and Powerpuff Girls Z so forgive lack of specific and more vague mentions, as well as anything I get wrong.
I will be using both of these to make a broader point on anime and tomboy tropes and other themes of how they explore gender and enforce gender roles. Powerpuff Girls Z is from 2006-2007 while Aoharu x Kikanjuu is from 2015. The context of the time period is inextricable and I will not be bringing up more recent examples, not in this post at least.
Spoilers ahead for both
