I think if this were a western series there would be more reason to debate her gender, but because transgender people are much, much less well known in Japan (especially in terms of what they actually are, as opposed to people thiking that they are men who "want to be women" or vice-versa) it is likely that the intentions in making her were not that she is a trans women (using those terms). But we know that when she is written, she clearly states that she identifies as a woman, so knowing that she was assigned male at birth, the most reasonable thing to assume she is is a trans woman.
