At first I wondered why the second picture was differently proportioned than the first one. Then on closer inspection, I was like "Oh, that's a sheep!"

Sometimes I wonder if LN authors get paid by the length of their titles.

When I read the Japanese title at first, I thought it said "the pretty girl I met was my childhood friend who used to be a boy".

A sheep is the GOAT, right? |

It's because LN sites just list the title under a genre plus a few tags but no summary, so the absurdly long and detailed titles *are* the summary. I still think it's dumb that once they get officially adapted they don't give them a 'proper' title though. |

Well, there is no nice way to sugar coat it: "My childhood friend was actually a girl" it's an extremely normal trope in hentai. It's not that normal in "mainstream" manga, there it's more common to make fun of it like Komi-san: Najimi is the perfect childhood friend, as such their gender is unknown, that way she can be a she for guys and a he for girls. Series like Tomo makes fun of the trope while trying to deconstruct it. A series like this its not coping Tomo, just using a common trope not that common in mainstream manga. |

On Shousetsuka ni Narou, you can see the tags and summary on the detailed ranking pages and search results, and of course the info page for the individual story; they just aren't shown in the abbreviated rankings on the main page, the summary pages of the rankings section, etc. I don't know how Kakuyomu does things. Of course, by the time you're getting officially published, you've got brand recognition to maintain.
Well, in mainstream manga, it goes back at least to Ukyo Kuonji in Ranma ½. Which was, y'know, fairly influential as romance manga go. |

Can’t wait for this one. The manga is great! Hope this will speed up the releases of the manga.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: this is a stock anime/manga/LN trope, albeit not a super common one, but the only time it has ever happened in real life is when the girl is trans.
