Binge read this during an usual insomnia night, this made me nearly cry.
Spoilers: Satsuki gets a crush on Rika and while it's open ended, it's implied that he looses that crush as rika transitions, i would've loved to see them together but i think it's still good how it ended. In real life a lot of people loose attraction after the other person transitions, yet they still love and care for the trans person. I related a lot to the protagonist

The main character is adopted by his uncle an aunt, who are a ftm/mtf couple with a genderfluid kid (who's currently staying as female.
I'm going to be honest, i love the trans characters but the rest suck :/
They're constantly reffered as crossdressers, transvestites and if you're lucky you'll get someone calling them transsexuals.
I get that japan has a transmedicalist view of trans people and that it's the 90's, but i still couldn't stand most of it.

Why it even is in the transgender tag ? Anyways imagine bananafish on drugs with dinosaurs and mpreg, that's it. The main couple has a 10 year gap with the younger being 17 and the main character keeps getting raped for no reason. Also he's a "female" and no one explains why????.
The first villain was badass though, i dropped it but apparently in the end the mc just transforms fully into a woman and it just ends like that??? Idk just don't read it it's not worth it

One side character is a trans man, besides that it's your usual yaoi story with a ton of triggering subjects.
Like it's one line where he showers with his nephew and explains why he doesn't have a pp, he also mentions how big his chest was before having top surgery.
In my opinion it's not worth reading if you're just looking for trans rep, if you like bl and are ok with the triggers then yeah go and read it (i'm sure in the comments there's a trigger list, if not i'll update it myself)

Great manga about a trans man also made by a trans man iirc.
The mc meets a dude who was held back a year and after connecting through their love of fashion he comes out to him and they start a fashion brand.
[SPOILER] I sadly relate to the "connects with a dude who's cool just for him to only try to date you because he refuses to see you as a man" bit :'(

One of the characters is a trans boy, it's not confirmed if the other main character is a trans girl or just likes crossdressing. It was dropped though
Also there's a tr*p joke in the second-to-last chapter by the translator at that wasn't nice
Main character's friend comes out as trans after summer vacation.
A rare ocassion of a trans and gay man (in a chapter it's mentioned he has a crush on a male actor)
I like how it tackled the "trans men are lesbians who transitioned because they like women" myth, as i've personally been told i can't be trans because i'm into men :/

The main's character older sibling comes back after years as a woman. It has some bigoted comments and a lot of fanservice, also the ending was weird af?.
I kinda feel bad for the trans girl since she's still being told how wrong she is and even her girlfriend telling her to not transition. Just weird overall?

Unlike the title says this is not actually about transgender people. The main character's crush catched an illness that makes them suddently switch sex (and gender with time).
SPOILER: it ends up with her accepting that she fell in love with her crush as a person and not for her sex/gender. It doesn't have trans themes but i liked the end :)
