For Makoto Hanaoka, life’s about to get more complicated. Saki Aoi, a lively girl with loads of confidence, confesses her love for Makoto one day. When he fails to reciprocate, Saki declares she will be his first love! She shares her goal with a mutual friend, Ryuuji Taiga, who also confesses his crush on Makoto. Stuck in a love triangle, Makoto must find a way to make it work and have fun.

Edit: Just to clarify, this movie will continue the story and is not a compilation film.

    I’ve been following this series. Queer culture varies from region to region, so it was really tricky to watch the show without projecting the concept of a western trans identity onto the main character.

    It took the full length of the first season before Makoto articulates his identity (genderqueer from what I can surmise - a man with he/him pronouns who prefers feminine presentation… mostly), with the option floated to him of being able to live “as a woman,” but with no specifics given to the cultural context of that phrase.

    It would be really cool to get commentary on this show from Japanese queer folks who can speak to the language choices and cultural context behind this show.

    I’m waaaay more interested in that than a movie.

      For me, it made sense to interpret “able to live as a woman” more like “be a man and live how women do”
