Description

In this world, people are born without a gender. Their bodies shift toward their desired gender when they reach twelve years old. Until Hinase's eighteenth spring, they lived content without a gender. But the bubbly girl Ritsu and thoughtful boy Shiori pull Hinase in opposite directions when they both confess their feelings on the same day! Romance was never on Hinase's mind so how can they respond? Hinase may be forced to choose a new identity as they arrive at the cusp of adulthood. Who will they choose, and who will they become? 6m6569

The banter they have (when not talking about gender and such) is phenomenal

I could honestly feel the banter between the characters, whenever they were not talking about gender and stuff, the banter they had was so relatable, i could easily imagine my friends and i talkking like this.

The reason why i say not talking about gender and stuff is because my friends do not really talk about becoming a girl or guy vice versa, we do not really have those conversations.
Regardless this manga really made me feel for each character. When one character got the upper hand on a scenario, i would find myself cheering for the other person. I kept going back and forth between characters cause i honestly really liked them and did not want them to lose, despite them being rivals

Good manga, i know this is gibberish, im tired but felt i needed to finish this manga, hence my garbled thoughts

It has some interesting takes and ideas

The drama and the tension added are fun because they affect the psychological portrait and development of the characters.

I haven't read that far in the story to give a proper judgement. But it feels like a fine "interesting" & "experimental" read so far~

maybe something for younger readers

There's a kind of logical flaw, that in a world where your gender is uncertain until you become of age, people still have prejudices and stereotypes towards females and males or arenew to same-sex relationships. Putting that aside, it might serve to show how absurd this notion is, but I think that approach only works for younger readers.

I somewhat disagree with the comment before. The love triangle did serve it purpose to deepen the internal struggles of the MC regarding what gender they want to become. I agree though that rather than a story for transgender or any queer topics, this is more about diffusing the binary gender coding.

Intriguing Concept Hampered by Shoddy Storytelling

by Suxinn

Rating: N/A

Hoo boy, so this is one of those stories that I really wanted to like, since it had some interesting ideas, and its premise seems to promise some actual interrogation of gender and its norms, but... nope. That's not what I got. Instead we get the same old hackneyed gender stereotypes as we do in other stories, only even more weirdly articulated and squished in to fit the frame of a fake-deep story.

There's a really distinct lack of thought that went into the overall worldbuilding here that actually ticks me off more and more the longer I think about it. Like, why in the world do people still associate cuteness with women and coolness with men when the people in this society can, uh, choose their genders? Where did this gender stereotyping come from? And what about nonnormative sexualities? I wouldn't even be asking that question if the love interests in this one weren't so adamant about having the main character become a specific gender just to fall in love with them. (Jeez, talk about enormously bad gender politics. As any trans person would probably tell you, gender is a personal choice; it's about love of one's self, not love for another.) Like, the author makes some barebones attempts to critique this approach, but it feels overly clumsy, and really obvious that the author has never even spoken to a gender nonconforming person before, never mind cracked open a book even remotely related to gender studies.

Instead of an actual interesting story, this work is more like "rote teen love triangle" but with a slapdash premise of "oh yeah people can choose their genders" stuffed into it in an attempt to generate more drama. That premise honestly adds nothing to the story and is almost laughable with how throwaway it feels at times. Honestly, the more I think about it, the more I'm annoyed by it, not just from a gender perspective, but also from a storytelling one. If you're going to try and write something unique, at least actually attempt to make it matter. At this point, it's just a superfluous gimmick that's proving to be ultimately pointless to the overarching story. Hard .
