Cool concept, questionably executed. I had trouble believing in the sudden rapport among this "traveling band" in the way I felt the author wanted me to. I also don't understand the other characters misgendering of Akash. At first, I thought it might be a translation issue, but I don't know how one could mistranslate "a man in woman's clothing".
