3☆ Review:

Ryo, our main character, is trans. He knows this. But others knowing his secret is a terrifying concept, so he tries to be invisible. Then he meets Jin, a boy who is extroverted and unafraid to speak his mind. Jin decides that Ryo is the perfect partner to start a fashion brand with and that’s how the story begins! 

This was a good start to a series, but I found it to be cheesy at times and the emotional moments felt rushed. However, I’m looking forward to continuing and meeting this new character, Tsubasa.
