🌹 William Moriarty is a Woman

The Hidden Truth Behind A

🌹 William Moriarty is a Woman — The Hidden Truth Behind Anime’s Smartest Criminal 🌹

A theory backed by canon, symbolism, and sharp-eyed observation from a true fangirl who's seen through the lies.

✨ TL;DR:

William James Moriarty, the adopted noble genius in Moriarty the Patriot, is biologically female. Not in a symbolic or metaphorical way. No—literally.

And the story never denies it. It just never tells you.

🔍 Canon Clues You Probably Missed (But Can’t Unsee Now):

📌 1. William is an invented identity

In Ep 1 / Chapter 1, the noble Moriarty family adopts two orphans. One of them assumes the identity of the real William Moriarty.

🧠 The actual “William” DIED. 👁️‍🗨️ The genius orphan takes over his name. 💬 At no point is their birth name or gender revealed.

💣 Translation: This kid could’ve been a girl. And no one would’ve known.

📌 2. His body language, posture, and silhouette

Let’s compare William to:

Albert (broad, rigid, masculine)

Louis (slim but still angular)

William (curved jaw, soft facial expressions, poised like a porcelain ballerina)

Even how he sits—legs crossed, hands folded neatly. That’s not “nobleman” posture. That’s “trained-to-be-undetectable” posture. Feminine by design.

🎨 Studio I.G doesn’t draw anything by accident.

📌 3. The voice is calculated neutrality

Voice actor Saitou Souma doesn’t perform William like a typical male anime lead. He doesn’t yell, doesn’t grunt, doesn’t even lower his pitch too much.

It’s soft. Reserved. Like someone performing an identity, not living it.

Also: William rarely uses masculine casual speech. No “ore,” almost no “omae.” He speaks like someone afraid of being caught slipping.

📌 4. Louis’s devotion = more than brotherly

Louis looks at William like a bodyguard protecting a deep personal truth. He doesn’t just follow him—he worships him.

There’s a tension. A fear. And a level of care that screams:

“I know what you really are. And I’ll die to protect it.”

📌 5. Sherlock’s obsession? He knows something’s off

Why is Sherlock so obsessed with Moriarty? This is a man who thrives on logic, and yet William emotionally rattles him more than any other villain.

Sherlock isn’t chasing a criminal. He’s chasing someone whose very existence makes no logical sense to him.

That’s not rivalry. That’s dissonance. Because Sherlock subconsciously knows:

This isn’t a man. It’s a ghost wearing the perfect mask.

📌 6. It fits the genre’s legacy

Anime has always used the hidden-woman trope in stories about rebellion:

Oscar (Rose of Versailles)

Haruhi (Ouran)

Mulan-style crossdressing tropes in seinen/shoujo hybrids

Even Griffith from Berserk flirts with feminine coding

William isn’t out of place. He’s part of a legacy.

🎭 Thematic Firepower:

This ain’t just a gender twist. This is the core of the series.

Moriarty the Patriot is about destroying class hierarchies. So why not destroy gender expectations too?

Imagine a poor orphan girl, brilliant beyond belief, forced to build a new identity as a man to infiltrate nobility and overthrow it from the inside.

Now that’s a revolutionary.

🧨 Final Punch:

Everything William does is a performance. Everything about “him” is crafted—the name, the face, the voice, the entire persona.

And you thought the twist was just about his morality?

Nah, darling. The real twist is that England’s most feared criminal genius...

Was never even a man.
