Ah, that is one I should have thought of, but yeah, like you said not really what I had in mind with the question. I just find it interesting that wheelchair bound characters are not typically depicted in anime/manga very much (or Western media either for that matter). In doing some quick searching, I found that Anime-Planet has a tag for it in their database, but a lot of the characters I see in the list are only temporarily in a wheelchair, or are characters confined to a hospital due to some condition (or are from series that I haven't seen, so I can't really say). In any case, just something that was on my mind from the visual.
