Description:
The manga follows an "angelic" beautiful high school girl with a certain secret she has been hiding from everyone, and an idle young male hikikomori (one who abnormally avoids social contact); the highlight of his day is seeing Mari at the convenience store. The story begins as Mari wakes up in her room, but something feels amiss about the room and even her own body.

After reading the whole thing on another site, I loved this a lot. My one big caveat is that the epilogue feels wrong for the story, like something imposed over what was intended. Just skip the last chapter imo. Up to that point though, this is a great story about dysphoria, disassociation, and the desire to be something else. That epilogue seriously did Yori dirty in a way that feels completely at odds with the rest of the story, going all the way back to Mari hugging her before any identity stuff happened. The ending where Mari becomes just "Mari" again, goes back to calling her by her last name, and then distances herself? It feels completely artificial to me, like an editorial decision to make "her" "normal" for a "happy" ending, and it just ends up ringing false to everything we know about these two people. |

@Blue-Plum after finishing the story I wouldn't call it yuri. It might have yuri elements but ultimately this manga is a deconstruction of the body-swap genre. If you're going in expecting yuri to be its primary focus you'll be disappointed. This is a psychological mystery first and foremost. If you enjoy those I think it is worth a read.

It's almost good. A bit too... bleh. Also, pointless nudity. Some good ideas. Execution is lacking. |

I enjoy Oshimi’s other work and also this one, albeit less. I feel like some parts of the story just didn’t really hit as it should’ve and while I did enjoy Mari’s character I felt that something was missing. Overall a nice read but imo one of Oshimi’s weaker stories... 7.5/10 |

it's rare to se a "bodyswap" story with such a realistic explanation to all of it. my favorite thing about the twist isn't just that it's unique, but they really clue you in even from the beginning. you think there's no way that could be it, it's almost like a red herring to a red herring. it's a mystery story above everything else. probably my least favorite thing is the last chapter and how they resolved Mari and Yori's relationship? i mean, the "Komori" inside Mari WAS her. it was always her. Mari and Yori DID fall in love with each other, literally. it's not that Yori fell in love with "Komori" and not Mari, because "Komori" really was Mari. when Mari realized that at the end, the personalities shouldn't have gone away, they should have merged, because she has the memories of all of them now. (memories ARE your personality, they're the same thing) they literally show all of them holding hands walking into the light! it's very weird to frame it as "Komori" is now gone, Mari is back to her "original" self, which means Yori and Mari aren't into each other anymore? that's not how any of this works. idk, maybe i'm just really mad i didn't get my yuri ending, lol. the ending itself was resolved nicely, that just frustrates me a little Last edited 3 mo ago by JohnJRenns. |

For once I actually found myself enjoying Oshimi's work without any strings attached - if this is his true potential then I guess there's still hope yet for Welcome Home Alice...heck, even Trail of Blood may have a worthwhile twist or two left up its sleeve |

Interesting twist on the 'bodyswap / gender-bender' trope which is usually played for laughs. Last edited 4 mo ago by emmie_dee. |

@Machaka22 Thanks for the spoilers. The series seems interesting but there are elements that you mentioned that I find quite off-putting, so I'd be skipping this. |

I remembered reading this. @Bee-Haw The yuri is more or less true. There is a romance between Mari and another girl but it ends on gal pal vide in my point of view. But there is some chapters and the whole manga is not yuri friendly. In one chapter Mari gives a handjob to someone or it was watching him masturbate more than one time. It also have a rapey vibes. I know it's the plot of this manga, having a guy's mind in a pretty girl body. He/We discovers all the difficulty she goes through her every day. The relationship she have with everyone, the discovery of her sexuality, her body, adolescence. But we see too munch the guy's face and mostly on the time when Mari touch herself. It's like some hentai when they imagine having a d*ck in there. And the way how they explain her homosexuality, having a guy mind of course "he" will end up loving a girl. But, warning, we discover that Mari have create the guy mind to protect herself psychologically. When the true Mari take control of course she is no longer gay... Putting that aside it's a good reading, heavy at some times but good. |

The rest of the manga can be read on other aggregate sites. Interesting story even if I was spoiled the twist from here. |

To put it simply, in my opinion, this manga is about how people with multiple personality disorder exist. so fitting to its psychological tag. Clever story telling i would say. Exceptional work as always Oshimi Shuzo sensei! |
