Line 5:
'''''Futaba-kun Change!''''' is an eight-volume manga series by Hiroshi Aro about Futaba Shimeru, a seemingly normal junior high school student who suddenly discovers that he is anything ''but'' normal.
To be more specific, Futaba is one day handed a [[Porn Stash|girlie magazine]] by a fellow member of the wrestling club. Having snuck into the boys' room to read it, Futaba suddenly clicks on not just how girls are different from boys, but why it matters. And as he thinks of his good female buddy Misaki, his excitement increases -- and suddenly Futaba finds himself possessed of [[Gender Bender|female anatomy]]!
Some scary moments (and the discovery that the effect isn't permanent) later, Futaba gets home, only to find out that everyone in his family changes gender, and the person he's always thought of as a father in fact was the one who gave birth to him!
Line 47:
* [[Turtle Island|Floating Island]]: The Shimeru homeland {{spoiler|(except it is really a giant spaceship).}}
* [[Follow the Leader]]: Copies a lot of ideas from ''[[Ranma ½]]''.
* [[Foot Focus]]: The wrestling match in book 4. Female wrestler Anzu specializes in leg-work; she isn't wearing wrestling boots but only gaiters, leaving most of her feet bare, and she thrusts them all the time in her opponents' face (which is most often the reader's viewpoint).
* [[Frothy Mugs of Water]]: Misaki [[Drowning My Sorrows|drowns her sorrows]] when she finds out the truth with a beer stein of ''[[Sweet Tooth|honey]]''. Not as odd as that might initially sound; the mead of yore was made from fermented honey.
* [[Gainax Ending]]: A rare manga version, due to the series being abruptly canceled. {{spoiler|Turns out Futaba's family are aliens that moved away from the aformentioned Floating Island; Futaba, Misaki, and Kurin end up away from the planet for 8 years; Misaki gets gene treatment to fix her partial [[Gender Bender]] alien DNA (and thus makes herself a compatible mate to Futaba); Futaba [[Take a Third Option|Takes a Third Option]] and apparently decides to marry both Misaki ''and'' Kurin; and the entire world now knows about the aliens due to Negiri's PR efforts.}} There's a reason most readers just pretend the last volume never happened.
Line 81:
* [[Must Have Nicotine]]: A sales clerk who covers her entire stock in tobacco stains (and starts a fire that almost kills half the cast).
* [[Noblewoman's Laugh]]: Takane Hiroin, especially as her alter-ego the Queen of Darkness.
* [[Non
* [[Nosebleed]]: Everyone, at some point. The wrestling team in particular, though -- they have nose explosions!
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Futaba gets landed in this role a lot.
Line 96:
* [[Secret Keeper]]: Misaki
* [[Selective Obliviousness]]: Somehow Futaba has managed to make it to junior high school without noticing his family's tendency to change genders on a regular basis. Especially remarkable given the [[Shapeshifter Mode Lock]] problem.
* [[Shapeshifter Mode Lock]]: Futaba is stuck in girl form while menstruating. Presumably this also happens during pregnancy.
* [[Skinship Grope]]: Futana, naturally, though she tends to take it a bit further than most characters.
* [[Skunk Stripe]]: The Koujiro sisters and Kurin.
Line 106:
* [[Tempting Fate]]: Futaba says he has a good feeling about the school field trip; next panel {{spoiler|the plane carrying them has ditched in the ocean}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Tenchi Solution]]}}: The canon solution to {{spoiler|the love triangle}}, shown in the last few chapters. Futaba {{spoiler|marries}} both {{spoiler|Kurin ''and'' Misaki (who gets gene therapy on the ship to turn her into a permanent [[Gender Bender|gender bending]] [[Human Alien]] like the other two).}}
* [[Thanks for the Mammary]]: See the entry for [[The Chikan]] above.
* [[Torture First, Ask Questions Later]]: The wrestler sisters Karin and Anzu tend to get a bit too enthusiastic during "questioning".
* [[Tournament Arc]]
