Okay, so I know that I say this frequently but this is 🏳️‍⚧️, right?

Like, a person born male laments the fact that they went through puberty and literally created their own perfect body. That’s like the textbook definition

Huh an actually pretty straightforward backstory even if the solution to it was over-the-top, making a military-grade-robot girl persona to simulate CGDCT anime. It explains a lot why Miruku☆chan looked so anxious all the time and specifically trying to push using first names. He's also got a constant blush now that we're seeing his real body (although oddly he seems more calm than when acting through the robot?)

Either way it makes his entry point into the main friend group kind of interesting. Because despite the class overall being p feminine, our core friend group rn is rather boyish besides Kitano. It tells me a bit that our robot pilot is subconsciously seeking healthy and secure friendships rather than matching his favorite cute girls anime in real life (whether he knows it).

Okay, so I know that I say this frequently but this is 🏳️‍⚧️, right?

At the very least, this is def like the biggest allegory we've gotten so far. I doubt he's going to stop coming to school as the robot, but I imagine the story is going to play it like he, the pilot, is a boy, and Miruku☆chan the robot (body and persona) is a girl. I'm p interested in how their behavior will change and how the group will treat them after this (outside of being nice and accepting).

NOW MICCHAN! KISS HER! WITH TONGUE! IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!

I think they also jump in the Bad Girl anime.
CGDCT saves lives

It can be 🏳️‍⚧️, and maybe a little bit of [realizes there is no lesbian flag emoji, crashes through a wall].

Micchan is very cute. She should have a little more confidence in herself and estrogen.

 

[LinkedSet]

That was very cute. I hope we circle back around on the "my voice had dropped and I'm already mostly done with puberty" part though. It makes sense for an unhatched insecure egg to feel that way. Looking at the series and the character externally, I think leaving it there isn't great.

Her father and connections are scientists beyond the cutting edge of robotics and nobody in universe thought that maybe she needs estrogen and girl friends? Par for the course, but also please somebody let her know there's options.

I hope anyone reading this that thinks its too late for them knows it's never too late

I have several beautiful women in my life who didn't come out until much later, in their 40s, 50s. There are people out there who think like you

Plot twist of this whole manga is there was in fact, only one boy in the class

 

[osmium1010]

very tasteful for a trans allegory in a comedy manga, can't say I was expecting that but I'm very glad for it.

 

[Narancia5]

This is getting too real
