Description

2025 Eisner Award WINNER in the "Best Digital Comic" category!

COMING IN PRINT, FALL 2026!

After graduating university, Yuna spent several years going through the motions and working an office job. Until one day, while in pursuit of an essential missing piece of her life, she receives a diagnosis of gender dysphoria, which opens up new doors for her. As she takes on medical treatments and tries out new makeup and outfits, she sees just how lonely and difficult the process of transitioning can be. But in 2015, when Yuna travels to Thailand for her gender-affirming surgery, the support of her siblings, new strangers, and documenting her experience through manga helps her begin to heal in more ways than one. Told in an honest and, at times, humorous tone, this memoir is a blend of manga and detailed prose that does not shy away from sensitive topics, such as suicidal ideation, transphobia, and the simultaneously harrowing, yet joyous, experience of gender-affirming surgery.

Advance Praise

"There's no getting around the fact that Hirasawa went through some harrowing experiences, but a major strength of the book is that it's not about wallowing. Hirasawa acknowledges that things weren't always easy, but ultimately her story is one of reaffirming who she is." - Anime News Network
