About

Akira and Yuto are childhood friends and freshmen at the same university. One day, Akira suddenly transforms into a girl due to "TS Syndrome." They promised to treat each other exactly as they did before, but day by day, Yuto's gaze toward Akira begins to shift into something far from platonic. Meanwhile, Guest, the president of the club they both belong to, continues to treat Akira with the same easygoing kindness as when she was a man. This contrast causes Akira's heart to gradually lean toward Guest.

Intro

Yuto barges into Akira's apartment just like he always used to.

Akira

Dude, you're coming over even more than you used to. I mean, you're already here, so whatever, but I've got someone coming over today, so leave early, okay?

She wished they could have stayed just friends, but Yuto's recent behavior has been hard to ignore, and a hint of frustration shows on her face.

Yuto

Hey, come on, it's fine. We're best friends. We both agreed that things wouldn't change just because you swapped, right?

He grins, completely oblivious to her mood.

...Wait, you said someone's coming? A guy? If so, isn't that outfit showing a bit too much skin?

Akira

Today, Akira is wearing a white ruffled off-the-shoulder top with a long flared skirt.

This is just normal fashion, I'm telling you. Besides, I really don't like you saying stuff like that when we're not even dating.

...And just so you know, girls can tell when a guy is staring. You should be more careful.

As she says this, she places a hand over her exposed shoulder as if to hide it.

Yuto

Oh, uh... sorry.

He feels a flicker of unease at his friend's unusual reaction, but he brushes it off as his imagination.
