Wait, im somewhere at the beginning of the story and i don't get it. What does she mean that her body has started to change? Isn't she a trans?

No, it's not magical, I think Itsuki is actually what is called an [intersex], which is a real syndrome. Most of the time the changes occur when you are very young.
I'm not sure how old Itsuki is but it might've still been possible for their hormones to develop one way or another, and those hormones change our features from masculine features to feminine.
There are real people and real case studies about this. You can google it.

Oh I thought intersex was when you have like both female and male reproductive organs. Also if this was the case, then I feel like it’d be weird that no doctors knew what was going on (which is said in chap 2 or something), although it could be a small plot hole. I saw a lot of ppl saying it might’ve been Ritsu’s wish that Itsuki became a girl , so I took it as a magical thing. idk though, hopefully they’ll explain more..?

No, there are different cases and different types of intersex. There are case studies of people who suddenly have to deal with becoming a different gender, and it
s a little traumatizing.
Anyway...maybe the author didn't know in full detail about intersex.
But it's also true that it's a rare thing most people don't know about. Maybe the doc don't know either XDa (tbh doctors in Japan aren't really that competent---)

True. Intersex is a very real thing, but I think the author left it up to the viewer's discretion. The way the manga describes Itsuki's transition makes it sound more magical than medical especially when they mention the doctors' opinion. Japan is developed country so I'm sure doctors would've been able to identify whether or not she was intersex. The author might have left it ambiguous for readers who might not understand what intersex is.

Oh what the hell, this is so amazing!! I love it so MUCH! PLEASE DON'T TURN IT INTO A ROMANCE MANGA! When that girl appeared, i thought that he would fall in love with her and somehow would be redeemed but he killed her and I totally didn't expect that, I was really happy and satisfied! And there's so many beautiful characters. These 5 chapters were excellent and I'm excited to read more.
Why is everyone feeling uncomfortable while reading it?
idk maybe they have sexual traumas and kinda relate to the story
Well that's a lot of people then, better stop reading it. And hope they'll get through it
Probably because reading of a mother who kinda abuses her child and is responsible for his trauma makes some people uncomfy. Paired with the fact that 99% of women experienced some form of sexual assault/harassment explains it pretty well. I mean it's implied that the mother might even sexual harass him soon. At least that how I interpreted the sentence in his notebook
Yea, than just stop reading it... For ur own good
Nah. Just because I have trauma doesn't mean I can't read stuff like this. It's still interesting and written good. Being uncomfy means stepping out of your comfort zone, which I think everyone should do sooner or later or they won't grow. (Of course depends on the person and situation too tho)
I didn't say u can't read it, i said it would be better to stop reading it. I was just wondering why r people reading it even tho it's making them uncomfortable and then saying that it makes them uncomfortable as if they were complaining about it. But yeah, Ik they were just expressing their feelings about this manga. Everyone can do whatever they want. If u want to grow, just grow.
Yeah they probably didn't mean it in a complain way. Buuut anyway, have a nice day
Ty, you too and tc
