really good exploration of gender and sexuality from the start of mogumo's coming out as nb and femininity as removal from masculinity as opposed to the trans women in the story and all the diff reasons for working at the "girlyboy" cafe. good shit. and the relationship! kotone's repressed sexuality!! the whole using mogumo as a replacement for a girl shit oof that's some complicated gender emotion right there. main guy looks like Every manga protag ever but he's still great. re discovering hey I wasn't just a passionate ally all along. the family shit. was the only thing I was unsure about there's a lot of complicated emotion that I think was rushed through esp sakura's eating disorder that was not addressed later at all and the father's 180 turn. overall a good ending tho of like. Conclusion of perception of the self
A story about a non-binary student working at a maid cafe. There are a lot of touching relationships and friendships made. A story about exploring one’s identity. The romance in it was very touching and full of understanding. This story was very cute and was interesting to see a manga with a non-binary main. 9/10
20/10 Non-binary main character and so much self expression WITHOUT equating gender presentation to gender. Literally love this so so much, Too relatable.
Genuinely an absolute masterpiece. Everyone should read this beautiful story; also it captures the queer experience so well. Every character is written amazingly with them feeling like real people figuring and dealing with the problems with having a "different" identity than the norm. Some are lesbians or gay, while others are transgender. The representation is actually so mind-blowing because it shows all the sides to being queer; the ugly and the beauty. Honestly I loved every bit of reading it. It's so relatable and just an enjoying read. Every part of this manga is amazing to the story and art, even the characters are so loveable. Although this story is more happy go lucky then how reality usually is, but that's really my only complaint. My other one is just how I wished there was a major transgender male character but that's really just my bias since I'm a trans man. That's pretty much what I wanted to say this manga was an absolute 100/10; something everyone should definitely read.
