Also worth noting on the whole 'he' thing: Unlike Japanese, English doesn't default to gender neutral pronouns. English defaults to masculine pronouns. In cases of a) ambiguous or unknown gender and b) translation from Japanese to English, many, even official translators, have defaulted to he. For an example, see the anime masculinification of Crona, the androgynous antagonist from Soul Eater.
