The Computer Wore Pigtails is a series that appeared in the British girls' comic Mandy in 1967, featuring Transy, the “the first computer to look and act like a twelve-year-old schoolgirl” and who is also extremely trans. Her name is Transy, like.

I do not know how many stories there were but Girls Comics of Yesterday suggests that the series was reprinted in 1975 under the title of Electra the Sister with the Transistors between Mandy #462 and Mandy #470 which suggests that there were at least nine. The Bournemouth University UK Comic Database has three stories archived. I have been unable to find any other extant Transy stories, but I would love to read the rest.

Transy lives with Sally Gleade, whose father works at Imperial Transistor Machines (I.T.M.) where Transy was made and is presumably named after. They also attend Leewood School together. In the first story Transy has a problem: She sucks at rounders.

The bubble in the fifth picture that says "Computers are never sick. And they're just crazy about swinging boats" is her dialogue. She gets angular speech bubbles and a different typeface. I just didn't happen to screenshot other panels where she talks in the first comic. I hadn't noticed that. She also generally refers to herself in the third person.
