Also, I was a bit ambivalent about BlackStar's girl design, but I think she now looks awesome and cute once she gets in that fighting pose.
*squintyface* I am admittedly not very familiar with what is good or bad in sex vs. gender in fiction, but is Ohkubo being even more deep by having Maka look like she's currently awkwardly stuck between two sexes in Envy?
I also really like the potential allegory for mental illness you point out.
The pig thing as Nightmare Fuel and Big-Lipped Alligator Moment all in one. *shudder* The sexual double entendre of the whole "my meat is delicious" thing was also cause for brainbleach. (Um, there's your dick joke?)
Tsubaki probably feel awkward to BlackStar because her body is probably smaller and has a different center of gravity, so even if Tsubaki was the same size and shape it would probably feel very different to wield him.
Sorry if that's all rather random. I'm a bit incoherent right now.
