Or alternatively, commit to the subversion and have Hikaru actively rejecting the femininity being forced upon him beyond the simple comedy. Seriously, this series had quite a few moments of accidentally hitting this mark originally. Hikaru staring at the lingrine store before storming off...

Edit: Aaagh, wrong series! Give me a bit and I'll made a decent write-up for why this series is sketch compared to something that is actually good. Look, from the very first chapter our initial impression of Halo -- other than genderbent elf isakai -- is sleazy. Like easily surpassing the...

I would joke that all Kaedee needs is an oversized hoodie to complete the joke, but that just feels mean at this point. She's was literally hiding behind the door in her introduction here. Seriously, Minami looked less dysphoric than Kaydee does here when she got roped into going on a date...

Okay, I genuinely don't know how to feel about this chapter. On one hand, this chapter easily lands as one of the cutest Genderbender/Trans Girl chapters I've read in a long while. On the other, when did Hikaru become a girl!? Like I know the gender swap was always a thing, but Hikaru has...

Damn, Kaede has Hikaru-kun pegged perfectly. Like to the point that is she walked into Hikaru and some other girl in some ecchi anime cliche, she would probably be able to calmly and correctly deduce the full chain of uncontrollable events that caused it presuming it didn't involve genderswap...

I mean, for as silly as this premise is, there is some precedence for this in video games. Back when I played Mabinogi years ago, Archery was the most powerful end game talent tree, by far. It was also one of the most grueling talents to level up and absolutely awful at.. well basically any...

No, but it is shorthand for the reader to understand that a character is not sympathetic.

If anything Chiaki has probably convinced the majority of girls in her school that she is exactly as much of a ditz as she seems. So pretty much any of the initial confusion or taboos she would screw up from being a trans lesbian would probably be glossed over by everyone with a simple...

She's no longer flat though, so the big hat doesn't count.

Bloody Last Attack bonus. As much as I want to give flack to Sword Art Online for that being a shitty, anti-player gimmick, it's a realistic shit mechanic.

The trans girl moment where you start out feeling euphoric at actually being hit upon, only to realize wait, I'm in danger.

To be fair, did you see her MP bar the past few chapters? Its like all those phone screenshots at 15% battery life except so much worse. I would think that if your life depended on a MP bar never depleting and you can freely check it, MOST PEOPLE WOULDNT LET IT DROP BELOW HALF! It doesn't...

I like how Minami is significantly less dense than most protagonists in that she can at least comprehend the idea of being asked out by Karin. I don't think she really views it as a possibility though, given I don't think Minami has actually realized that girls can like girls. That said, ooph...

It's official. Bai Ji is so desperate to not be like her mom that she concocted an even more harebrained scheme to create a successor. She really is a teenage brat, isn't she?

And the mage just realized that Rope Trick means they don't have to pay rent. Surprised that so few isakai protagonists tried what is basically a common staple of D&D, but I suppose it takes a certain level of ditz to try such an insane idea.
