I really enjoyed this manga about a Japanese trans guy coming into his own, with the help of some unlikely friends. The fashion and art components are a really nice complement to the main character embracing his identity without shame. Very slightly reminds me of Itaewon Class, which is a good thing! Definitely looking forward to the next volume.
