   #1 - Mahiro's Confusing New Body

   S1:E11/5/2023

   We follow Mahiro Oyama, an unemployed good-for-nothing shut-in, who not only hasn't left the house in two years, but is also exceedingly addicted to gross video games. One afternoon, he wakes up and notices that his body feels a little off. Finding that strange, he goes to reach for his tablet, but what does he see in his reflection, but an adorable young lady. I wonder what lies in store for the "former" big brother, Mahiro as he's thrust headfirst into his new life as a girl.

   As Mahiro stumbles through his new life as a girl, he finds himself gradually beginning to get into the swing of things.

Seeing his condition worsen rapidly before her eyes, Mihari has an epiphany. She realizes that his pain may actually have something to do with fact that almost a month has passed since Mahiro turned into a girl...

Mahiro is initially a little nervous around her, but as he gets to know her, he learns how much of a nice person she is and becomes quite attached to her. Then, out of nowhere, Kaede asks "You've never done it before, have you?" and begins to scooch closer to a puzzled Mahiro. I wonder what she's about to do next...

The size of the crowd, however, makes his resolve waver and Mahiro finds himself cowering outside the store entrance. It is then that a young boy (?) around his age, wearing a baseball cap, comes to the rescue and offers him a helping hand. Thanks to the boy's (?) help, Mahiro is able to buy the groceries he needs and is just about to head home, when Kaede suddenly shows up. Seemingly, out of nowhere.
