The Many Colors of Cross-dressing!


Happy Pocky Day! To celebrate (well, not really), we are pleased to present the first chapter of our newest project: Giniro no Genders (Silver Genders) by Hiro Tomono. It just recently started serialization in Young King earlier this year in June, and we've been waiting patiently for the first volume to be released to start it, which was in October, so there's only one volume right now. However, since Young King is a biweekly magazine, volumes for this series will come out pretty quickly, with the second volume already slated for release next February. The story is as follows:

Three months after starting college, Gin Fujigaya is still having trouble meeting new people and fitting in. As an escape, Gin indulges in secretly cross-dressing and posting selfies of himself in drag online, which has garnered him a large following. This leads him to going outside dressed as a girl for the first time, and he soon discovers that the way people interact with him like this is vastly different than what he's used to. Over time, Gin's fondness for cross-dressing and looking cute allows him to meet others who are harboring their own secrets.

Overall, the story is about various LGBT characters, alluded to by the big LGBT on the back of the first volume as shown above. The art is also very nice, and Tomono has a lot of experience drawing hentai, although this appears to be the author's first (non-hentai) series. So we hope you enjoy this new series.

  1. Hi, I just wanted to ask if it was possible for you to put a warning on this with the rape attempt at the end of this first chapter since it got to me pretty bad, and I don't want others to experience that same shock.

    1. Honestly, I would see that as a spoiler since the way it is written is meant to shock the reader. If the editor for the manga doesn’t tell the readers about it beforehand, then it’s not our business to do it either.

  2. Another good work! You are doing an amazing job.

    Since I am here, I might take the chance to ask if you have already heard about this manga: https://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/12801
    I don't know if anyone has translated it yet but if not, I was wondering if you liked things like these *smile enoji*

    Anyway, please have a nice day!

    1. We’ve seen that before, but weren’t really interested in scanlating it, at least not right now.

    2. It's been translated, and is nearly up to date. I don't know if anyone is currently working on it, but the author releases new pages VERY slowly, and AFAICT there are only three more to be translated as of now:

  5. I like this new series, but whatever happened to Bokura wa Mahou Shounen? It hasn't been mentioned since late September.

    1. We had to push that back slightly only because we were worried some other group could have started this series before us. Bokumaho will be our next release; we really should have mentioned this in the post above.
