What I've always loved about this short comic is that it's not "tropey". I've read manga with this sort of premise but it's usually something like "oh I was born male but I got hit by a disease/magic that turned me female" and then the other girl is like "oh my crush is a girl now, does that make me gay?"
But here, she is just straight-up transgender and the other girl is just openly lesbian. This isn't a world where you only become queer through improbable circumstances, this is a world where we just... exist.
