Pre-order:
Being in love with your best friend is hard, but being a good friend is even harder.
Hime and Akira have been best friends since childhood, and Hime has always protected Akira. But since Akira began openly identifying as a girl, Hime's constant need to speak out on her behalf is becoming a problem.
When Akira becomes a manager of the school’s football team and crushing on an older boy, Hime feels the rift with her friend growing wider. She’s desperate to save her relationship with Akira, but whatever Hime tries just seems to make things worse. Akira’s making so much progress, so why does Hime feel like she’s only falling behind . . . ?
This manga adaptation of a hit Japanese webtoon (online comic) is a joyous celebration of acceptance – both by others and oneself. Tackling universal teen themes of friendship, identity, sexuality and social pressures with a gentle story filled with thoughtful (though imperfect) characters, this series is brilliantly inclusive and has clear crossover appeal.
