- Multiple posts on X and other platforms declared the character 'canonically trans,' treating the visual as confirmation.
- Voice actor Vico Ortiz, described in coverage as non-binary and genderfluid, shared fan art depicting Hunter with top surgery scars and wrote, “I gotta catch up to this week’s episode,” alongside a smirk emoji.
