This story is amazing! Especially, character dynamics between Ken and Emily. It's oozing with individuality and depth. A rare find in Erotic stories. I love it.

But... Split Personality Disorder? Really?! Are you kidding me?! Why???????? WHY??????!!!!!!! There are so many other ways to express difficulties Ken faces in his way of transformation without using obsolete and detrimental technique like SPD! Moreover, Ken had strong mentality throughout entire story. There is absolutely no way a healthy mind, even when it's stressed, would develop such extreme defense reaction. It would require Ken to murder somebody against his own will. But here? That would contradict his character.

Up until swimming competition Ken faced difficulties, that would break weaker person. Not him, though. He swept his way through them with enough force to withstand humiliation of his secret being revealed to whole school! Additionally, that b*tch of a director would take any opportunity to kick him out of school. Even more, boys might start bullying him. Or girls. Or both. There are so many opportunities to give Ken CHALLENGE. A trouble. An obstacle, he must overcome to accept his feminization.

And what about Emily? If Ken was exposed at swimming competition, wouldn't she help? It's clearly obvious, that she likes him and feels guilty. Such feelings tend to make people do some otherwise crazy things. Would Ken leave her if she faced hardship? Of course, not! They are there for each other. Eventually, they would end up together.

Take, for example, Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry. Ikky, just like Ken, went through hell. He had a support from somebody he didn't ask and expect. He accepted himself and his changes. So, why couldn't Ken? Why couldn't he face his teachers and his classmates? Why couldn't he overcome them and become a subject of admiration? He had enough drive to do so.

I love this story and I love these characters. But it pains me to see Ken brushed away like that. Although, up until swimming competition, plot development was good. I would have loved to see Ken and Emily facing bigger challenges. And through them – growing closer together. The bigger the trouble, the bigger reward, as they say...

In the end, my verdict for this story:

Setting – 10/10
Characters – 10/10 (I love them!)
Dynamics (action, conflict, etc...) – 10/10
Ecchi/Eros – 10/10 (it blends well with a plot)
Dialogues – 10/10 (I wanted to read all of them! Even big chunks of text, which I usually skip in other stories)
Art – 7/10 (I don't really like 3D models, because they look too blocky and unnatural. In some cases, that's good, because, it gives unique Uncanny Valley experience. But if done wrong, that kills the suspension of disbelief, making it hard to take such story serious. Anyway, here, 3D gives certain charm to overall presentation. So, it's quite good.)
Panels and Comic structure – 9/10 (confusing at times, but, otherwise, quite good)
Plot:
before swimming competition – 9/10 (dreams are the worst means of exposition; I felt cheated at times, but otherwise, story was breathtaking)
after swimming competition – 2/10 (Split Personality Disorder doesn't fit established boundaries)

My final verdict: 6/10
Story is absolutely fantastic! Characters are lovable and fascinating. Plot development is intriguing. Story makes you want to read everything in one sitting.
Until certain point, where strong beginning is simplified to a cheap drama. That is, a swimming competition, that marks a breaking point.
Overall framing of comic is pretty unique and wouldn't fit everyone's tastes. But that fades when you start reading.

So, in my humble opinion, go, read this story. It is worth it. Although, I advise you to stop at swimming competition. That'll keep whole impression of the story at its' best.

Author is very talented and I can't wait to read more of his creations.

Oh such sad news. This was one of those stories I was eager to hear more from. There's not a lot of good quality content in this space. Sorry you feel bitter-sweet about this attempt. For me it was all sweet. Anyway good luck in your future.

Anything over 500 pages I just assume it's never going to get finished, because that's what happens most of the time. It's still sad to read the update though, because I was enjoying it, but understandable that it must have been a massive amount of work to keep up. Many thanks for the fun of reading your comic.

dang this was one of my favorite reads and i thought the story was just reaching a good climax for a reveal to her mom and girlfriend i was kind of hoping it keep going 4-6 more chapters at least. You stopped the series HALFWAY THROUGH THE CLIMAX OF A CLIFFHANGER. Seriously This WAS a fairly good series even though it got kind of weirdish recently, but to so much that there was no way to come out of it and turn it around to a fairly nice end. I think that the author REALLY could not decide who he wanted to "live" and which girl the main got to go with or even how their body should end up. their is many way for this to go, but to just end it halfway through a cliffhanger climax it in REALLY REALLY REALLY POOR TASTE. I hope the author understand that ending a series so badly after such a long run will result in the fans litrually deciding to think negatively towards future works. AKA this is going on your Permanent Record: Failure to end a long run series properly!!!!

It's hard when an artist discontinues something you really enjoy.
If you ever continue this, I will be one of the first to read it.

This is disgusting, the fetish of disfiguring women into cows is abhorrent. How rotten and mentally ill do you have to be to enjoy that?

Jalouin. Get off the website then twatt.

It's a shame the story was such a slow burn that the author burned himself out before it could actually get to boil.

I am in severe pain at ending the series in the exact worst time. Absolutely every single character arc was incomplete... i don't think anybody learned the main lesson they needed to except maaaaaybe the "main villain" (Not Emily, lmao she learned nothing whatsoever). I HAVE to assume that the ending here is out of the creator wondering how to safely land the plane, because they kept ever drifting to the final resolution where something finally fixes all the problems or something, but it never does. I imagine they stressed out about it greatly because they genuinely could not decide what to do. If this was the proof that writing was not their calling, I'd mournfully applaud their magnanimity and wish them well on their way. I sympathize greatly with the mental health problems and burnout this creator has been going through.
If, on the other hand, this is just them copping out and putting [ABANDONED] on this story so they can move on to a different story, I have no sympathy because if you can't make even a bad ending for this, you can't make a good ending for anything.
That being said, I legitimately cannot touch any further work from this creator until they can demonstrate that they can complete character arcs, by completing this story.
That or the word "(Final)" was made in error and there actually is an ending, in which case I've made a fool of myself on the internet. Yeah, I just checked, this all there is for now. maybe ever. It really raises the question of which is worse: a whole half-assed story, or half of a story that is really engaging and fun? I have consumed at least 100 'meh' stories on this site... but they didn't hurt to see unfinished, they were just forgotten.
Anyways, i totally get the burnout, i understand delays, but this guy needs to finish the story before he dies of old age. All i ask. charge a million dollars for the ending for all i care, just make sure it has one! Also, i agree with Zevana, split personality disorder was unnecessary and poorly handled, and *some characters* just became really, really annoying after the swim competition.
