| Well, we don't actually know whether Chrona is a boy or a girl... but what does everyone think Chrona is? And why? |
| really, Chrona can be either. although the hair, dress and self-consciousness is quite feminine. Chrona still gives off some male vibes... |
| When I first saw Crona, I always thought she was a girl. I still want to stick with thinking Crona is a girl, even if she gives off a few hints of possibly being male. Mainly with how Crona protects Maka so seriously. Although, all the hinting at her being a male can work for hints at being a girl xD |
 |
| I think Chrona's a female. '_' And she's got a nice girly-girl friendship with Maka. I find that more fitting than a...Sort of, "love"-relationship. |
 |
| A girl. This one time i was thinking "Chrona's kinda cute" so... if she's a guy, it would make me worry ,_, |
| I think Chrona's a girl. |
| I hope she's female >.> |

| There r traces of evidence tht cud imply Chrona bein a boy... BUT there is much more evidence pointin 2 my conclusion of Chrona bein a girl. The only thing tht cud make me think Chrona is a boy is HER protective side 4 Maka, but tht cud b sed as a "mother's protectiveness" as well or mayb a great desire 2 protect wats important 2 her in this case her 1 n only true friend. So basically the only thing i cud find 2 make me think Chrona is a guy can also b used 2 say Chrona is a girl AND a good friend. |
| Girl. I think Chrona is girl, but... ... but in my imagination, he/she always be MALE~ (Yeah, I'm perverted, I know.) |
| It's okay to be braindead gay. ♥ |
| Crona uses 'boku' most of the time which would suggest Crona is a guy, however I tend to think Crona is a girl. Sugooii18 said: It's a she,, I've heard it somewhere in one episode from Maka.. I can't recall the episode.. If the subs say 'he' or 'she' in referance to Crona, that's the subbers choice of words, what the characters, even Maka, usually say they have never actually said 'he' or 'she', japanese dosn't really have those words. |
| I mainly think of Krona as a girl, he/she's got quite a girly figure, especially the legs... But having a bit of a crush one Krona makes me feel like a creep, being the gender isn't exact. D: |

| Like Kino from Kino no Tabi, I prefer to think of Crona in a gender neutral way. Although I do prefer to refer to as Crona as a girl. Honestly, I think I would use boku to refer to myself in informal situations just because it's in my character. Also, I've often contemplated if Crona may also prefer to use "boku" because Ragnorok is also inhabiting her/his body and is male and he/she lacks a real sense of identity. |
| I get sometimes male and female vibes from Chrona. Mostly male vibes. But I'm gonna say intersex. |
 Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| I say male because whenever I watch subs that say "she" or read and it says "she" I feel slightly disturbed D: But I still love that it *huggles Chrona* |
| At first, I thought she was a boy, but now I think that she's female. Given the personality and how she's been treated, I don't think a male character in the Soul Eater universe would interact with Medusa the way that she does. I get more of a mother/daughter type of vibe from their relationship. |

| I wrote this somewhere else originally, I'm just copying and pasting: I'll be referring to Crona as a boy for simplicity's sake. Let me start by saying that Crona's gender has /never/ been officially revealed. In Japanese, they only use gender neutral pronouns to describe him. Translators decide to choose "he" or "she" to make it easier to describe him since English lacks gender neutral pronouns. Medusa never states that Crona is her "daughter", only that he is her "child." I'm going to list every single hint about Crona's gender that I can possibly think of right now, but I don't believe that anything is true, definitive proof so far. Let's start with the hints of Crona being female: -Wears a dress, although it may be a robe. -Has a "girly" hair color. I personally don't agree with this, as many male characters have purple hair. (No, Crona's hair is not pink.) -Young Crona wears what is most definitely a dress. Also looks and sounds like a girl. -"Girly" figure. I've gotta disagree with this one too. Looks like a skinny boy to me, and not just because of the lack of boobs. -Ragnarok tries to pull up Crona's dress and Crona is embarrassed and calls him a pervert. -Female voice actor. (Kind of irrelevant) Now for male Crona: -Uses "boku", a Japanese word for "I" that is normally used by males. Females can use it too, but are /usually/ more of the outspoken, tomboyish type. And no, Crona could not have learned "boku" from Ragnarok because he uses "ore," not "boku." -Eyes look more like how male eyes are drawn rather than female, although this could just be to make him look more tired. -Despite the female voice actor, Crona still sounds boy-ish /most/ of the time. -Crona says he "Doesn't know how to deal with talking to girls" and then blushes. He also blushes quite a bit when he's around Maka. Could just be shyness, I guess. -In episode 31, Crona wears male formal wear while all of the girls wear dresses. -Studies show that male children who are raised by abusive mothers will become weak and submissive like Crona, whereas females usually become hateful and resentful. But once again, this is anime we're talking about, so it could be different. -And finally, the most definitive piece of evidence I can think of, and the fact that makes me think that Crona is very likely male, is this: Witches can clearly only be female, so if Crona were really Medusa's daughter, she would be a witch too. It's clear that Crona is not a witch at all though because not only would it have been mentioned, but it specifically was stated that he /isn't/ a witch. In episode 12, when Medusa is at that witches meeting thing at the beginning, she says to Eruka, "I'm not the only one who brought non-witches." The only think I can think of that could contradict this evidence is either a plot hole or that there really is some logical reason for Crona being female, but not being a witch. So there ya go, that's everything I've got. I really do hope we find out what Crona's gender is eventually though. No matter what the result, he will always be one of my all-time fav characters 'cause he's just so awesome. XD One thing I'm worried about, however, is that they'll pick a random gender for him in the dub. I really hope they don't, in case they end up choosing the wrong one or something. o__o Oh yeah, and as for the argument of "Crona's name would be Crono if he were a guy," that is untrue for many reasons. There are many male characters with names ending with an "A." Not only that, but Crona's name is actually the last 3 letters of Ragnarok's name in Japanese, but flipped around.(ra-gu-na-ro-ku; ku-ro-na) It seems that his name can also mean "dark one" or something along those lines. Hopefully this clears some stuff up~ I'd also love to be able to add more things to this list if anyone thinks of anything I missed. |
| That was a cool analysis Alcyonne ^_^ From that evidence, it seems more likely to me that Chrona is a boy, which is what I thought from the start, but the poll is proving me wrong >.< |
| Chrona is a girl. read chapter 60 of the manga. |
 |
| i think i liked crona better when i thought she was a guy. i was kinda shipping he-crona with maka...although i suppose i can still ship them. XD |
| That picture at the end of chapter 60 doesn't really prove anything. Sure, Crona is in a girly pose, but that's it. Nothing is really showing so there's no proof. Some people seem to think that the fact that Crona's chest *isn't* showing is proof that it's a girl, but that's not true. The author doesn't want to choose either gender for Crona(ever) so the only way to do that would be to keep the chest covered. Also, if you look at that picture in chapter 60, you can see that Crona has a more masculine back/shoulders area. So yeah, Crona doesn't just have a feminine body. It's sort of a mix. |
| lol Chrona is a girl XD they're showing in anime |
| サービスサービス |
| I prefer female. Lawls. |
| lol its seems like one of the biggest questions in anime history.. I'd rather think of Chrona as a girl but it doesnt change my opinion on Her/Him either way |
 Ha bi ba nono Haaa bi ba nono |
| kinda makes you think who's the father, huh? XD |
 |
| she's a girl god she's the best damn character in soul eater |
 |
| Didn't Medusa ever say 'musume' in the anime? I didn't actually hear that, but, it MUST BE... Chrona's a girl... |
| UPD: I've searched through the subs, and every time Medusa talks about Chrona (this is really disappointing) but all I've found is referring to Chrona as 'kodomo' or even 'ko', or something like this. This fact makes me think that even Medusa herself doesn't know Chrona's gender XD |
| I really don't understand where people got the idea that Crona is a "girl's name". It comes from the last few letters in Ragnarok's name in reverse (in Japanese, of course). クロナ ku-ro-na ラグナロク ra-gu-na-ro-ku |
| i think male ^^ i just want it ^^ |
Alcyonne said: -"Girly" figure. I've gotta disagree with this one too. Looks like a skinny boy to me, and not just because of the lack of boobs. I must disagree; newest chapters showed us that, even if she hasn't boobs just like Blair's, her silhouette is definitely feminine- just have a look at her hips at pages 28-29 in ch.67! ^^ I've never seen a boy having such a sexy hips, really. I think, that when Ookubo Atsushi was creating Crona, he wasn't sure what sex he could choose for her and he has made her boyish, but some time passes and he decided that Crona is a girl after all. Actually I find a fanservice piece from ch.60 as a good prove, even if we cant see boobs here- ok, we can doubt she is a girl then, and claim "I wont believe Crona's a girl before I see her naked, standing frontally and showing her boobs" but for me its like "I wouldnt believe that Soul is a boy because I havent ever seen his penis" ;D I accept that some of you people still do not agree with Crona's girlish nature, but if it comes out that she is a boy after ch.60, it would make this fanservice the weirdest boy fanservice you can imagine o.o Moreover, if she is a girl, as I believe, her relations with Maka would seem even more cute and kind of 'delicious' ;3 In conclusion, I voted 'Female' ;3 (and Im so so terribly sorry for all of my grammar mistakes^__________^ ) |
| Nah, I disagree. Something like that still can't be regarded as proof. Especially when it comes to Crona. Crona's gender is meant to be unknown so you've gotta look at it from the creator's point of view. He purposely created a seemingly genderless character to get reactions out of people. Apparently he stated in an interview that he doesn't know Crona's gender. And I don't think anyone's saying they need to see official pictures of Crona completely naked as proof. There are many other things that could be proof. For example, the main reason I see Crona as male is because he would most likely be a witch if he were a girl, but Medusa actually says that he isn't one. But even this isn't proof, because it is probably technically possible for Crona to be female and not be a witch. So basically, it's no better than what you're saying. I don't think anything is wrong with saying that you see Crona as a girl, but I really wish people would stop going around saying that they have absolute *proof*, because there really isn't any. Also, how's this for sexy boy hips? XD http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u24/anjimito1987/Guilty%20Gear/Bridget.jpg |

Apparently he stated in an interview that he doesn't know Crona's gender. OK, I cannot argue with this argument, mainly because I havent read any interview with Ookubo Atsushi ^^' But still- when did he state that he doesnt know Cronas gender? I guess that pretty long ago. Why? Just look. http://www.onemanga.com/Soul_Eater/4/17/ Cronas first appearance in manga. She is looking rather boyish, isnt she? Even I was convinced that Crona is a boy. But her gender wasn't clearly stated, there was (there's still!) a big discussion between Soul Eater fans about hers androynous look, so author could make up his mind and decide about who exactly she is, so we have this page: http://www.onemanga.com/Soul_Eater/65/34/ and this one: http://www.onemanga.com/Soul_Eater/67/28-29/ Many differences in drawing style, yeah; but imagine, that there were Cronas first appearance in ch. 67, one week ago. I suppose, that there will be no discussions about her gender! The way how creator is drawing her now is completely different to way how he is drawing male characters; Soul, Black Star... even Gopher ;) And I don't think anyone's saying they need to see official pictures of Crona completely naked as proof. Well, I know some people who said such a thing once ;3 There are many other things that could be proof. For example, the main reason I see Crona as male is because he would most likely be a witch if he were a girl, but Medusa actually says that he isn't one. But even this isn't proof, because it is probably technically possible for Crona to be female and not be a witch. So basically, it's no better than what you're saying. Well... yes, this is probably one the strongest argument for 'Crona is a boy', I wouldn't oppose. But I don't find it as strong as arguments for her 'girlishness'. I don't think anything is wrong with saying that you see Crona as a girl, but I really wish people would stop going around saying that they have absolute *proof*, because there really isn't any. I didnt say that I have ^^ Im more like ' I find strongly possible that Crona's a girl but I'm still witting that there are some arguments against ' . Maybe I will be surprised if it anyway come out that she is a boy, but I don't think that it is completely impossible, so come on, take it easy- Im not saying that I'm the only one who is right, you have a point there also :) Also, how's this for sexy boy hips? XD http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u24/anjimito1987/Guilty%20Gear/Bridget.jpg But... this is a girl, right? ... RIGHT? <extremally confused> xd |
| I see what you're saying. XD Everyone has their own reasons for believing whatever. I do agree that Crona looks more feminine in the manga now, but he still *does* look androgynous enough. I'm going to pass it off as an art style change, which happens to everyone over time. As for that pic I posted, that is, in fact, a guy. His name is Bridget and he's from Guilty Gear. He's probably the most well known example of a trap. XDD And stuff like this is so common in anime. There are *so* many characters that look like girls, but turn out to be guys. That is why I don't think of Crona's "feminine" appearance as proof. Besides, when I look at him I just can't see him as a girl. XD I actually kinda hope Crona doesn't get a confirmed gender so that everyone can believe what they want. But then again, some of the arguing out there is pretty ridiculous and I'd like to see that stop. >3<;; |
| That Bridget thing is b.s. in my opinion....drawing a guy like that is just annoying T.T I want to see real life proof of a man having hips like that without padding or anything I belive Crona is a girl, but I see where people have points that she is a he...but I just believe that she is a girl--with the evidence I see ..that have already been mentioned |

| I think is her. Well, Chrona - it sounds like a female name |
As the autumn leaves fly by...  |
| she is a Female why? look at the manga http://www.onemanga.com/Soul_Eater/20/08/ and http://www.onemanga.com/Soul_Eater/20/09/ she acts like a girl , another one she have a feminine posture ,wearing some madien clothes and look at chrona chest she have a little breats just look on it properly she`s just flat chested and ohyeah look at her name (CHRONA -female) at the other one (CHRONO -male) see so Chrona-Chan is a female (WATCH SOUL EATER EP 16 3:40 - 3:41 LOOK AT CHRONA SHE GOT A BREAST she just a flat chested |

| ZOMG KITTEH!! I BE SURPRISED PEOPLE THINK CHRONA BE A GIRL! No but seriously, I think Chrona is a guy becuase: 1. Not many girls blush when saying "I don't know how to deal with girls." 2. Not many girls get all frantic when they see another girls panties Those are all I can think of right now though... |
