In Japanese there is no singular “they”, however, there are many alternatives in the field
of “that person” or “this person” many of which are commonly used in speech, even for cis people.
of “that person” or “this person” many of which are commonly used in place of gendered pronouns,
even for those who don't regularly use gender-neutral pronouns.
The most common forms of “that person” are split into three sections:
far, near to listener, and near to speaker, represented by あ/そ/こ \[a/so/ko] respectively.
far, near to listener, near to speaker, and the question marker, represented by あ/そ/こ/ど \[a/so/ko/do] respectively.
So, while the gendered pronouns He {/彼=彼} \[kaɾe/kare] and She {/彼女=彼女} \[kanodʑo/kanojo]
do not require any changes dependant on position of the subject,
all the gender-neutral animate pronouns and inanimate pronouns require that distinction to be made.
