SUMMARY: Hime Sakuragaike has secretly been in love with her childhood friend Akira Yonezawa since they were kids, but Hime only recently found out that Akira identifies as female. Although surprised, Hime offers her full support, and this is initially kept a secret between them for a few years, but Akira decides to start living as a girl full-time upon starting high school with Hime. However, since Akira garners a certain amount of attention, Hime takes it upon herself to aggressively stick up for Akira whenever necessary. Not wanting Akira to be singled out as an object of ridicule, Hime decides that her only option is to put herself in Akira's shoes.

#i am only adding this because the main character (the cis girl) doesn't stop being bisexual i don't think...#but this series is an unimaginable let down. it's borderline disgusting how much of a let down it is (spoilers)#her friend who she is in love with (the trans girl) is completely sidelined and her gender identity exploration #ends up with her being a feminine cis girl married to a man & with a kid.. FUCK YOU #oms listing #kanojo ni naritai kimi to boku #takase umi #l: kanojo ni naritai kimi to boku #l: f x m #l: queer & ambqueer #l: queer character #l: cross dressing #l: genderbender #l: gb: ftm #l: masc f #l: gb stops #l: masc f stops #personal score: 5 #for the longest time i didnt even add to my oms list because of how angry and disheartened i was by it #they literally dangled a yuri with a trans girl and likely nonbinary character in front of my face and said sike #this is what happens when authors are not IN the community and fundamentally dont understand the cultural state #of the thing theyre borrowing to sprinkle on their work #all of us over here can see the line you won't let your character cross
