>It does make me wonder, though. Is the maleness of these morally ambiguous ideological twink rivals so important to their relationship with the protagonist that they wouldn’t work if female? Has it ever even been attempted in a halfway notable manner?

This character archetype of a mysterious pretty boy with an otherworldly auroa or origin and a homoerotic tension with the protagonist was popularized by Kaworu in Evangelion.
But it all started with Ryo from Devilman in the 70s. I won't spoil it but it's almost an inherently malehomoerotic archetype, so it likely wouldn't work if N was female
I'm not sure if it's been tried before.
