Really enjoyable first episode, looking forward to the rest of it. If not for the name of this anime I'm pretty sure the woke crowd would label Tomo as trans or gender-fluid.

To be honest I've forgotten most of the things that happen in the manga so it's like I'm diving down blind. Overall a great first episode. Takahashi Rie sounds amazing as Tomo.

It really feels like a light hearted show showing transgender struggle to find himself. I really hope show will explore Tomo inner thoughts about being a man and maybe his lover acceptence of Tomo being a guy.
Is this has manga adaptation? Does Tomo go through the gender change surgery and stuff? I know it is unlikely, but I'd love if anime adapted to modern views of the world and accepted transgender people as they are.
It would be lovely if Tomo was accepted as a guy as her inner self is, and even has romance.
Japan and anime really need to explore that side of world too. First episode was a bit of sad knowing Tomo feelings and seeing her forcing to become someone she isn't.

Honestly, why is Junichiro a Reatard? The dude is childhood friends with Tomo and after so long he still thinks Tomo is a boy even when she wears Female outfits after all this time?! 😂

Maybe he just accepts he's as a transgender man in woman's body and thinks it's natural since they're friends since childhood.
That would explain his behavior.

As much as I am a huge fan of the manga.. this was exceptionally mediocre.. This adaptation just feels soulless.. Maybe I'm getting too many good adaptations of my already-read(red) manga like Mieruko-chan, My dress up darling, Take me to the Moon, Kaguya-sama etc that I was hoping that this adapatation would be special.. but much to my disappointment.. Its avg..


The anime missed some jokes and or miss the punchlines.. the VA for Jun and Tomo are nice but for the rest? debatable.. and What happened to Gundou black hair ffs..

I will give this a 7/10 for now.. just cuz its an adaptation of one of my fav manga.. but please don't fall anymore :/

This caught my eye when I was going through seasonal stuff, and it already has a pretty high rating, so I guess I'm on board.

Wow, okay... I feel like I got trolled. This is so straight forward and laced with misunderstandings. I really wanted to like this, but I feel like I won't. All of it feels like it's trying so hard.

And, I hate to mention it, but, why does Tomo's snaggletooth change position just about every other scene? Details. They. Be. Important.

I really, really hate dropping things... but I may have to drop this. Any Captains here? Does this pick up? I didn't laugh at a single scene. So this might just not be for me. And, it wouldn't be the first time I went through a whole series and gave it a 1.

The first ep was already hilarious and i didn't even plan to watch it but decided to give it a go anyway. 

Tomo actually is super good in karate and Jun does it as well, but Tomo wants Jun to see Tomo as a girl and not a boy. Misuzu is also an interesting character, I'm glad Misuzu is still friends with Tomo since the kindergarten. 

This is gonna be an interesting watch for the remaining of the season to see how Tomo will change as an character to more girl style, and hopefully Jun will begin to recognize it.

Damn, to think Takahashi Rie-san can sound like this is just incredible, lol. 

Seems like this will make for a fun watch. So far, I think I liked the childhood friend the most actually, xD.

Oh, yes. The first manga I started reading... and haven't finished yet. I'm so lazy when it comes to reading manga, honestly.

Anyways, good start overall. Tomo and practically the entire female cast is what will carry this adaptation so I really look forward to seeing those amusing interactions in anime form.
As for Tomo's voice, I was expecting her to sound more like Mordred. Sawashiro Miyuki's "tomboy-ish" voice is just too good so it was lowkey a shame she wasn't chosen for the role. Takahashi Rie is doing a decent job so far tho.

And yes, Junichirou remains as stupid as I remember him. Not gonna lie, this manga/anime might be the only exception where I condone female violence towards a male.

Tomo Chan is absolutely ripped with a Beautiful ass, beautiful muscular thighs and long legs..
her hair style is sexy but the one she had in middle school was better but that's okay she is trying to be a girl..

MAAAAAAAAAN my first anime watch of January 2023. This will be a great and exciting journey through Tomo's feelings towards Jun - and Misuzu's silent and slightly awkward support.

I expected an OP sung by Tomo's seiyuu, but this one is fine.

Next season we will have some more!! Yay

After Anzu from Romantic Killer and now as Tomo, so i'm kinda used to this kind of voice from Rie Takahashi.

Rina Hidaka not with her usual loli cute girl voice are amazing.

This looks like another fun romcom.

She doesn't really come off as a tomboy to me. It's more like the author tried to write a tomboy and just put a typically male hobby on her, but never met one. 😅
She so often flustered and turning red etc., I see her as flustered and shy moe girl personality-wise, she's not a tomboy in my eyes.

It's not terrible, but I'm so annoyed by romances where they are turning red and get flustered and tsundere like ten times an episode. Might drop now or next episode.

It was pretty interesting. A classic tom-boy motif, being raised by a father whose head of dojo would make you act like that. It was pretty annoying trying to figure out if Jun knows Tomo's a girl or not, or if he knows she's a girl but doesn't think of her as a girl.

I was surprised how they already made a dub version, it was pretty cool. I mean the eng voice for Tomo was pretty deep, since she's a tom-boy I found that funny XD

First ep was good! had a ton of fun learning about the characters. I am also really happy to see that it's not going to be a simple relationship that's one sided but rather complicated ones, really happy to see that!

Looking forward to seeing more!

It was very mid she is acting like one of the homies and expecting to find love. That doesn’t from a logical standpoint, maybe if she wants bros attention she should act like a girl and not one of his homeboys.

Rieri's voice acting in this episode was top notch, this anime is great, starts off with her confessing to the guy she likes only to be brozoned lol, turns out he doesn't see her as a love interest XD, it seems that her tomboyish personality came from her upbringing and the environment she grew up in

Mate you are looking at the wrong show if you want trans representation. I have read the entire manga and Tomo is a straight girl during the entirety of it. You will be very disappointed if you are looking for any sort of trans representation in this work.

Really interesting show. Love that Tomo-chan is into martial Arts and was a Tom-boy since she was a kid. But makes me laugh that her childhood friend doesn't notice she is a girl or if he does he really good hiding it on this episode. Also love how other male characters notice she is a girl but not her childhood friend. Can't wait for the next episode.

I know that this series' whole gimmick is that every chapter of the manga is just one page long, but boy does that translate abysmally to a full-length anime episode format. The "humour" is repetitive and it all feels as disconnected as you would expect. On top of that, the "humour" just feels incredibly outdated and isn't that funny at all: "girl constantly beats up guy because he's so insanely, absurdly dense" is a relic that should have been left behind in the late 2000s. Incidentally, this show's view of gender roles and the whole idea that Tomo needs to act more "feminine" for Jun to actually use his brain and realise that the obvious girl is a girl feels pretty damn sexist. And that's not even to mention that Jun's apparent denseness is used as an excuse for him to inappropriately touch Tomo in a way that even guy friends wouldn't do: what guy would tickle their "bro" or slap their "bro" on the ass like Jun does in this episode.

This show is very clearly not for me and really feels like a relic from an era of anime romcoms that I hoped and thought was long gone.

Cara é perfeito, tem uma arte bonita, os personagens tem personalidade próprias e cativantes, a protagonista é um doce "mais poderia ter deixado ela mais feminina com o corpo malhado, porr ela faz academia, ela luta, ela tem ter músculos feito um ser humano normal".
Simplesmente cativante.
