Un manga con un dibujo hermoso y un personaje principal no binarie que trabaja en un café acompañade de otras personas que están descubriendo su sexualidad e identidad de género. Yo buscaría los trigger warning antes de leerlo por las dudas pero está más que recomendado! Por ahí le falta un poquito de profundidad pero es muy lindo igual.

Rep : pp non binaire
aaah ça avait l'air super! je ne connais pas de manga avec une rep non-binaire c'était une premiere, c'était cool. cela dit, quelques discussions m'ont pas mal trigger mais la conclusion était plaisante (?)
on y discute les raisons pour lequelles les personnages travaillent dans ce café d'otokonoko (gay, transgenre, s'évader... etc) et le principe de nonbinarité était étranger c certain.es .
dans la vf il y a un après-propos sur le sujet que j'ai bien apprécié

I don’t think I’ve ever read something like this. Was definitely not expecting them to get into intra-community competing needs right off the bat.

Is that... an actual examination of gender and the gender binary in MY MANGA? It’s more likely than you think.
Mogumo is nonbinary, but mistaken for an “otokonoko,” a boy who dresses as a girl for some reason (likes drag/cosplay, likes cute clothes, can be out as having a boyfriend without worry, to be trans in a more culturally acceptable way, etc.). Tetsu, a classmate, assumes that, if Mogumo wants friends, then working at his trans sister’s otokonoko maid cafe will help. Tetsu knows how trans people can be mistreated and alienated, but he doesn’t quite get what nonbinary means, and neither do the other maids. Despite misunderstandings, this maid cafe, Question, and everyone there may be those most likely to understand what nonbinary means.
I don’t think this is Own Voices at all, but the author actually put a lot of thought into this. Like a lot more than some things I have seen. Please read this!!
5* Highly recommended!!
Warnings for transphobia/homophobia, misgendering, brief mentions of gender-related body dysmorphia
