It is, without question.
But at the same time, the author frequents LGBTQ spaces and have friends in the community and his portrayal of crossdressers was actually a net positive in Japan, despite all the shit he included with those characters. That's the sort of stuff that I meant.
More recently he had some much better trans representation, but then he fucked up again with a character that at best can be summarized as gender fluid - and folks were fighting over this character's gender for years (with no conclusion).
