Boys Run the Riot, Volume 2 by Keito Gaku
3.5
CW: transphobia
I like this series. The characters are interesting and the storyline is different, about 2 high school friends who are designing a clothing line.
The MC is a trans boy and this volume seemed to be a bit all over the place, but then maybe that was the point? There was a lot of “mild” transphobia, which is the reality for trans folks; others being okay using your pronouns, but then not being allowed to use the corresponding washroom, or still being assigned tasks that are stereotypically the incorrect gender (ie: working front of house instead of back of house at a restaurant).
Looking forward to reading more of this series!
