Enjoyment & Overall - 7/10

Overall, this manga tackles on different themes and issues that not many other managka trying to implement as an elements. It somehow shows a fresh concept - makes me value the storyline more, and relate to the character more emotionally.

Generally, this manga is obviously not for everyone, unless you love heavy, complicated and emotional content.

Story - 8/10
This manga involve psychological and dark
elements, infused with heavy emotional content on each character backstory. Not to mention the add-on of gender bender, yuri and a bit of ecchi elements filled the overall story plot of the manga.

It started off with each character darkest secret, their personality characterization and how they felt about it emotionally. At this beginning point of the story, it seems that apart from Mikako, the other two characters seems to still questioning their sexual orientation and also what they really want in life.

The three characters somewhat get involved with each other, and Yuki and Kaito getting close as they both take comfort in their insecurities and secrets. Mikako felt that genuine love she thought from Yuki and thinks that it might a way for her to move on from her past.

The plot of this story progressing accordingly to fill in the answer of every reader curiosity, and yes every questioned that we had in our mind as reader were lighten up with a every revealation. Each of the character backstory and personality were meticulously discussed.

The mood of the manga gave the reader bundle of emotions, from mad, to sweet, to sympathy and happy.

Overall, its a perfect blend of a storyline, although heavily implemented on such dark and complicated contents that might not be for all type of manga reader.

Art - 7/10
The art is beautiful, though nothing much to consider to be special. I felt that its an average art drawing for me (as much as any other manga) , and no unique details drawing.

The drawing on female characters, somehow it shows rather more details and emotions, especially on the body and face features, its light and relatable. However not much impact from a male character, even from Kaito who's crossdress as a female, it always felt that it contains lack of emotion - maybe that just personal view.

Character - 8/10
The main characters really played they part well in the manga and every character contains personal backstory, reasons and in the end solutions they took by the end of the manga.

Character development was obviously seen on Yuki, in which she had moved on from physically being a "boy" or at least considered as one in the past, into a beautiful lady by the end of the manga. It shows that she chose this path as she well thats who she really was after all that struggles on determining who she should be.

As for Mikako, it hards for her to accept the fact that she was sexually abused by her father since she was young and she stuck with that false fatherhood feeling that she was groom to by her father. Her backstory was kinda tragic which makes the readers sympatheze for her more - especially her relationship with her mom, her distrust issues for people and particularly emotional/sexual attachment that she felt for her dad. It started to wear off once she met Yuki, however then she realize that she began to actually enjoy this prostitution life (which she hates herself for) - and felt that this is how she should live from now on. Although by the end of the manga, it comes to her realization that the father love she felt was in fact a sexual abuse againts a minor, which impact her so much as she really genuinely loves her. Though theories might also add up that, he actually planning to take a revenge on her dad - though that was just speculations.

Kaito Aiba struggles as well with his sexual orientation as he felt that he loves being a crossdresser and the thought of him to completely become a girl also ever crossed his mind. However, meeting Yuki shows him that it's okay to have feminine emotions, and but still live like a guy. He felt that Yuki acceptance towards himself makes him learning about himself bit by bit. People expectation and idol role makes its hard for him to open up regarding his hobby. Though he used to thought he had feelings (romantically) for Mikako, now he felt that he probably do so because he idolize her looks and fashion sense - which he tends to implement into his crossdressing. After knowing and spend so much time with Yuki, now he felt that its his obligation to protect both of them, as first he wanted to save Mikako from her dark past and second, by not getting Yuki involved, because genuinely he really cares and love her. By the end of the manga, it shows that somehow Yuki and Kaito end up dating in real life.
