The explanation I've heard for "thin books" is that they're exclusively H, and they're "thin" because they cut out character introductions (especially for existing copyright books) and plot and everything but the lewds - basically porn books that get right into it.

I'm certainly not an expert and can't read any primary (Japanese) sources, but it makes sense to me that a term would have more meaning than just "the book is literally thin"

Man, with that fall I thought there was going to be some sort of body swap thing happening. I don't know if I'm disappointed or relieved.

From pixiv dictionary

Thin books refer to Doujinshi, a derivative work made by one or a small group of individuals that is usually less than 100 pages. Compared to regular published books, they are way thinner, hence, thin books.
When explicitly stating "thin book" rather than "Doujinshi", it usually refers to the R18 variation. This is because, even among doujinshi, they are usually extremely thin, sometimes having 12 or 16 pages.

It's independent work with existing or independent characters/works involved it's more similar in terms to indie games with (most known doujin are h.) I have read doujin that has just as it says thin short "volumes" made by independent writers. 95% of pixiv works are doujin like my gamer girlfriend or originally I turned my childhood friend into a girl.

honestly really fucking funny that when he goes to hang out with his guy friend, he dresses in the fruitiest outfit imaginable and still gets bitches on him
He was worried about being 'not masculine enough for a boy' at the start, but sheesh, does his fashion sense really tell how 'masculine' he really is.

Forget 'fruity', he might as well be a 'twinkie.'

Love this manga (although all the loli/shota love is a teensy bit uncomfortable)

That said I have a small nitpit on the translation. On page 25, the second text box should be “Is that…” rather than “That is…”. It’s just swapping the order but it majorly changes the flow and cohesion of the sentence (which finishes on pg 27).

Wish this was a BL manga with his friend as the love interest instead of a shitty harem with pedo female leads.
you are reading the wrong series, and I don't know why people went into this expecting differently when this has been explicitly a shotacon series from the very beginning

you guys need to stop expecting things to conform to your reality and just look for stuff you actually like - there's boatloads of BL crossdressing content out there if you want it. like, I don't go out of my way to read BL since I don't like BL - why go out of your way to read a shotacon series if you hate shotacon?
