''[[The Day of Revolution]]'' is a two-volume manga series by Mikiyo Tsuda about a fairly normal, if scrawny and undersized, high-school boy
So Kei takes a half-year off school for therapy, training and "adjustments" (i.e., surgeries) to feminize his body before returning to repeat freshman year as a girl, hoping that by wearing her hair long and pronouncing her name 'Megumi' (which can be written using the same kanji as 'Kei') she can somehow avoid recognition by her former classmates. Naturally, things aren't going to be that easy.
Line 6:
The manga as a whole is a fairly realistic and non-melodramatic depiction of the difficulties inherent in Kei/Megumi's situation.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Alternate Character Reading]] - How Kei became Megumi; this type of name change might make sorting out [[Personal Seals]] and certain documents easier.
* [[Attractive Bent Gender]] - inevitable, seeing as [[Even the Guys Want Him|Even The Boys Wanted Him]] pre-[[Gender Bender]].
* [[Attempted Rape]] - By Nakagawa on Megumi, allowing her to commiserate with Mikoto when he tells her about his own [[Near
* [[The Beard]] - Mikoto. At least that's how his sister presents him to Megumi; Mikoto himself has other ideas. Megumi soon gets other ideas as well.
* [[Bleached Underpants]] - Tsuda moonlights drawing Yaoi. It shows
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130103163055/http://www.mangarush.com/manga/the-day-of-revolution/v-1/3/p-60 That's going a bit too far... this is a shoujo manga, after all!]
* [[Character Overlap]] - with [[Princess Princess]]
* [[Cool Big Sis]] - Makoto, Megumi's BFF and guide to all things feminine.
Line 27 ⟶ 26:
* [[Ho Yay]] - Kei and pretty much everybody.
* [[Jumping the Gender Barrier]] - played for laughs. The boys think it's a lock, but Megumi is thoroughly squicked.
* [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman]] - never even mentioned, believe it or not.
* [[True Companions|BestFriends]] - the "Tail Wags the Dog Quartet (minius one)"
* [[Rape Is Love]] - Subverted. Nakagawa seems to think he can make Megumi his girlfriend through sexual assault. Even his own henchmen think he's nuts.
* [[Romantic Two
* [[Sitting
* [[Skinship Grope]] - Megumi complains that she doesn't have breasts; Makoto proves otherwise.
* [[Second Law of Gender Bending]] - Of the "reluctant admission" variety. Megumi concedes "I really am a girl now" near the end of volume one. Volume 2 is more about [[Jumping the Gender Barrier]] than [[Different for Girls]].
* [[
* [[Third Law of Gender Bending]] - Going back to school as a girl forces Megumi to wear a very stereotypical [[Sailor Fuku|sailor-style girls' school uniform]] complete with a middie blouse and a ridiculously short skirt.
* [[Tomboy]] - Megumi, for obvious reasons. Moreso in the epilogue, where she seems to have adopted "Tomboy" as her style.
* [[Tomboyish Name]]
* [[
* [["Well Done, Son" Guy|Well Done Daughter Guy]] - Megumi opts for gender reassignment largely in the hope that she can finally have the sort of healthy relationship with her father that eluded her as a boy.
* [[Wrong Genetic Sex]]
