I spent a whole chapter (about one-third of the manga) going "It can't be! A comic dealing with trans* people that a) actually respects them and b) isn't focused on being trans*?" And yet, it was!
(The depiction of the possibly-genderqueer character is super awesome. At no point does anyone interrogate zir about why ze 'cross'dresses, and although the translators used gendered pronouns (and even switched them once or twice!) I'm willing to bet that the original Japanese didn't have a single one.)
