A Lady of So High Resolve!


For our first pickup of 2019, we are excited to present a series that should come as no surprise to readers of our projects. These are the first two chapters of Umi Takase's shoujo manga Kanojo ni Naritai Kimi to Boku, which is also the author's debut series. It started on Ganma last July, and new chapters are posted every two weeks with currently 16 chapters. Also, its first volume is set to be released on April 12, but we'll be working on it as it's released online. The story is as follows:

Hime Sakuragaike has secretly been in love with her childhood friend Akira Yonezawa since they were kids, but Hime only recently found out that Akira identifies as female. Although surprised, Hime offers her full support, and this is initially kept secret between them for a few years, but Akira decides to start living as a girl full-time upon starting high school with Hime. However, since Akira garners a certain amount of attention, Hime takes it upon herself to aggressively stick up for Akira whenever necessary. Not wanting Akira to be singled out as an object of ridicule, Hime decides that her only option is to put herself in Akira's shoes.

In all the projects we've ever worked on, relatively few of them have been shoujo manga and even fewer have prominently featured transgender characters, so seeing those two things together in one series and getting the chance to work on it is a unique experience and one we simply couldn't pass up. Together with other series we've worked on such as Bokura no Hentai and Shimanami Tasogare with similar themes, we believe this series has a lot to offer, so we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

  2. It's only been two chapters, but so far I'm not really sold on this. I really like the concept but these first few chapters haven't really clicked with me. I'll definitely keep reading at least a little while longer though.

  3. Well I'll be looking forward to reading more. I really like the concept, and seeing Hime in the gakuran, at the end of chapter 1, was pretty bad ass.
