This is an ecchi series that follows a girl who has to deal with her cousin moving in with her and her mom. The twist is that cousin is a hermaphrodite/futanari and there's a twist on that later on when they explain why it is she was born as a futanari. Thankfully they don't try to pair the two main leads together............but there's still some easy to forget moments of Alabamaness splashed in. Twords the end it can be hard to read through with other elements they try to add for some forced tension. But it is mostly fan service. There's nothing bad in this ... series but outside of the fan service there's nothing too great about the series. A nice recommendation for those who have started reading into ecchi series. This is one series that has a low chance of becoming an anime, and if it dose becomes one it will be made out of one of the more newer studios or will be turned into a hentai.

I wanted to like this, it's weird, unique, and I doubt I'll read something like this again, however, Boku no Futatsu no Tsubasa tried to do too many things at once.

The art is decent, it's nothing to write home about, character expressions are well developed, but sometimes it was hard to know which character was which at times. There were quite a few places where the main characters and most supporting characters were in a scene, and it was near impossible to figure out which was which. The design for Makoto was really good though.

The overall character design is lacking, there are just way ... too many characters introduced in only 37 chapters. The two main characters are fleshed out pretty well, but some of the side characters are introduced in some drama, stick around for the rest of the manga, and provide no substance at all. Some character conflicts are just left wide open and, seemingly, conveniently forgotten.

The biggest hit is the story. I really wanted to like this, and for the first dozen or so chapters, I was way on board. The drama and conflicts were handled well, albeit a bit quickly at times, and there were discussions about sexual topics that rarely get brought up. Obviously some of the way that it's talked about is a bit touchy (it's 20 years old, so I can't hold it to the standards of today), but it's handled elegantly.

However.

The story itself jumps around way too much, there were parts in the middle chapters where I would forget what happened 2 pages prior, because time would jump forward a day, or it would be from another perspective, with little explanation. It also introduced a weird sci-fi thing near the end, which was fine if it was explained more, but it wasn't. It just appeared, then the story ended.

It's certainly an interesting manga, that doesn't fall into the numerous tropes that I've come to suspect, but it's a bit of a mess. If you like Gender Bender stories, give it a try, if you're into weird stories, try it as well. I don't think I would recommend it to many people though.

I'm only writing this because of how annoyed I am with the ending. The premise of this manga is that the main girl is a futanari, with a penis and a vagina, who has to navigate normal teenage girl problems. Also there are people who want to kidnap her and a wild twist at the end, but none of that's relevant until the second half of the manga. If you don't like that premise, don't read this. If you do like that premise, this story is about as bad as it could be with that premise and with that twist. The plot is a hot ... mess and there are too many forgettable characters who contribute nothing. The entire plot is driven by just random events and sex.

The whole "teen girl with a penis" plot does touch on themes relevant to LGBTI people. The main girl Makoto isn't portrayed as some kind of freak, which is good, but this manga still isn't totally sensitive to actual LGBTI issues.

The author of this manga is great at writing hentai and coming up with cool ideas, but he failed to string cool ideas and sex scenes together into an intriguing story.

I will say, the art and fashion is awesome.
