Cross-Dressing leads shown in every day life and interaction with his peers. Fun and a great story to watch.

Hey YOU! Yes YOU! Are you seeking unconventional transgender (mtf) representation? Look no futher than these two shows! Both deal with family struggles and transphobia. Are they the best representation? Ehh that's hard to find these days. However, if you're looking for interesting stories that also include trans people, these are some dramas that are both! Imai no Kuni no Alice's character is not a lead though.

If you like Hikaru's character and find Matsumoto Leo beautiful in female attire, you should check Jun Shison acting as Ogawa Miki in Joshi-teki Seikatsu (https://kisskh.at/26209-life-as-a-girl)... although he acts as a transgender there, not as a crossdresser.

Coming in 2018 this was such a powerful story, amazingly acted and beautifully portrayed - it's short and fun, witty and interesting, with memorable characters that defy the "laws of whait is normal" and the concept that everyone blooms in its own spring.
