Pretty artwork, and the story wasn't too rushed or drawn out! Some parts needed more elaboration,? and some of the wording was awkward (but that might be due to translation). The subject of gender expression can be complex, especially when you're explaining it to a rigid audience. Kaito's start into cross-dressing was messy too. You would expect his journey to be full of hardships due to this, so I appreciate the realism with that, plus the relatable anxieties and fear of being found out after past experiences. >>>>The mixed emotions Kaito has for Asahi aren't fleshed out enough; we see him swap between looking after Asahi, to resenting him and wishing to defile him. It was distressing to see a cross-dressing male character have a violent outburst and assault his love interest, in drag no less. It felt blatantly transmisogynistic! I'm upset that the story took this ignorant and harmful turn, especially that it was never resolved, just brushed over and straight to a 'happy ending'.

This was a breathtakingly beautiful comedy of a merm's search for love! As a queer person, I enjoyed the gender bending aspects greatly, and the way Coral had no issue with her body being different than what most humans perceived as 'normal' for a woman. The plot twists and drama got a bit confusing I will admit, but overall the message stuck and the emotions were there. I was on the edge of my seat, crying and laughing with the characters as they cried and laughed. All in all a very fun read!!! The artwork is stunning too :3

I enjoyed this quite a bit! I can relate to Inaba's love of cooking ^^ The dorm aspect was fun, although I wish we could have seen more of their working life too. It felt like there was a lot that could have been expanded on, and the sex scenes had a dubious vibe to them too?;; But overall, it was short and sweet! The ending was heart-warming?
