Running into a men’s room and reaching for his penis only to find ‘nothing’.Avoiding the toilet out of concern over seeing a girl’s ‘front butt’.Struggling to put on a bra for the first time (which is not unfounded).General discomfort with possessing female anatomy despite lusting after it.But Boku no Shotaiken is from The Halcyon Era, so it instead takes things in a less sexual direction, and hits what would become several familiar MtF TSF tropes. In a more modern hentai comic, this would result in Eitarou being sexually assaulted into submission and identity death. Eitarou is naturally shocked to be in a woman’s body, while Kyoji wants him to perform the ‘wifely duties’ of Haruna. Meaning that we are dealing with a classic case of brain switching, not straight TSF. The 70’s were a wild time for Japanese cartooning, and you could find Hitler look-a-likes all over the place.Īnyway, Kyoji is a disgraced scientist who puts Eitarou’s brain in the body of his deceased wife, Haruna. He should have died, but instead his mind and body were saved by… Adolf Hitler? Well, no, the character’s name is actually Hitora Kyoji, but he looks just like Hitler, because… I don’t know. After being made a laughingstock yet again, Eitarou decides that this world is too cruel to his gentle soul, and jumps off a cliff. And by prank, I mean she gathered the entire student body for an assembly so they could mock him for being so bad at romance. Following his latest twentieth rejection, his first girlfriend, Michitu, pulls a prank on him. The story follows Eitarou, a prudish romantic high school boy who wants nothing more than a devoted girlfriend, but constantly strikes out on the first date. …I felt the need to explain that, as Boku no Shotaiken feels like a reprisal of these ideas (in more ways than one). Daisuke goes up to prevent her from killing herself, she confesses her love for him, he gives her the sex change ninja drug, and after realizing what Daisuke did, she throws him off the roof, and he DIES! After letting this final ‘goof’ play out, Daisuke’s childhood friend heads up to the roof of the school to commit suicide (there’s a reason those roofs have fences now). And finally turns his female childhood friend into a man. Tricks one to participate in a ‘Miss Ugly’ contest (again, 1972). He frames one as a lesbian in front of her boyfriend (remember, this was 1972). This medicine, predictably, transforms people’s sex, and using his new female identity, Daisuke ruins the lives of the women who humiliated him. Bitter at this emasculating experience, Daisuke enacted his own using an ancient ninja drug that he just so happened to have in his house. Through misunderstandings and lies, Daisuke wraps several women into his love life, who wind up exacting revenge on him… by physically assaulting him. The core of the story centered around Daisuke, a horndog high schooler boy who writes a love letter for one of his classmates, only for the delivery to go wrong. Because it was also written by Yuzuki Hikaru!ġ972’s Doron was… very much a product of its time. …But before I talk about that, I should probably talk about the second TSF manga (the first was debatably Metropolis by Osamu Tezuka in 1949). Boku no Shotaiken (My First Time) by Yuzuki Hikaru. The first ‘gender bender’ manga found in every database, and a work that spans nearly 500 pages (490 if you want to be technical, but 500 sounds better). But this past week, she shared with me the great grandma of all TSF manga. She has been on an absolute tear as of late, translating 1973’s Joka he… or To Joca/Joker by Ooshima Yumiko, and 1992’s Rintarou Panic! by Keiko Takemiya. Natalie.TF reader Chari continues to bring the goods with yet another fresh translation of a piece of TSF history.
