Kedamono Damono

A romantic comedy Shoujo manga by Haruka Fukushima. The series focuses on Konatsu Narumiya, a high school freshman who manages her school's basketball team. When Konatsu goes to look for Haruki, a member of the basketball team, she finds out that he turns into a perverted girl at night. Haruki-as-a-girl then sexually harasses her, they wake up in the same bed, and Haruki admits that he knows Konatsu has a crush on the team captain. Long story short, the captain turns out to be a jerk, so Konatsu decides to go out with the ultimately well-meaning Haruki. Hijinks ensue.

The series was licensed by Tokyo Pop, but seems to be out of print.

 * Gender Bender: Obviously Haruki,
 * Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!: Ren to Haruki, after Konatsu starts dating Jun. He may not have convinced the male Haruki, but female Haruki rushes straight to where Konatsu and Jun are afterwards.
 * Girls Love: The If It's You It's Okay sort, and a lot of it for a shoujo manga.
 * Godiva Hair: Girl Haruki, who oftens ends up bare-chested for one reason or another.
 * Hot for Student: A couple of the teachers. Neither Konatsu nor Haruki return their affections.
 * Hot Springs Episode

 * Schoolgirl Lesbians: Haruki is a discount version.
 * Sick Episode: In one chapter, Haruki changes genders whenever he sneezes.
 * Single-Target Sexuality: Haruki.
 * They Do: Subverted. They try, but they never quite seem to get there.
 * Two-Person Love Triangle: Konatsu is never quite sure which Haruki she's attracted to, or which Haruki is attracted to her. It's an ongoing part of her Character Development.
 * The Unfair Sex: Haruki probably wouldn't get away with any of the naughty things he does to Konatsu as a girl if he hadn't been one.
 * Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Almost no one questions Haruki's ability to change sexes; if they do, they freak out, run away, and are never seen again.
 * Widget Series: It's Ecchi Shoujo Gender Bender Girls Love... Who's the intended audience, again?
