This series features:

* ShoutOut - To GalaxyExpress999 in a short joke, and TheRing, in the form of the ScaryStalker [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment stalking]] Manabe.

** The gang members that keep following "Yuna" around are nicknamed Film/TheThreeStooges. (In the translation, at least. It may be a shoutout to LoveHina.)

** The plot is kicked off when the surgeon assumes that the photo Randoh had was of himself. How many people (aside from extreme narcissists) carry pictures of themselves?

* GenderBender: Randoh... technically. He keeps his gems and pecker, and his body mass slimmed down to insanely girly lengths.

* NightmareFuel: Depending on how you look at it, the premise of this manga is borderline ''nightmarish''.

** [[spoiler: Dropped on Natsuo after she pulls down "her" skirt and panties, having suspected "Yuna" of being a guy. And then there's Manabe getting rid of Sachiko by pretending he's into men, and showing off "Yuna"'s dick to her.]]

* DroppedABridgetOnHim: In one chapter, a DirtyOldMan feels up Randoh's leg during a stay at a supposedly haunted onsen, realizes he's a guy, and promptly gets the stuffing beat out of him. It happens in an earlier chapter (though it's because of "Yuna"'s flatness).

* CutShort: Sadly, the manga was discontinued after just six volumes, with many minor narrative threads (like the fate of Randoh's family) LeftHanging.

* {{Tomboy}}: Though Randoh/Yuna wears feminine clothing, all girls remark her masculine behavior... and find it extremely cute.

* SecretTestOfCharacter: [[spoiler:The real Yuna]] gives Randoh a particularly tough one: [[spoiler:to prove he loved Rina, he had to agree to be have his face changed back to Yuna's ''irreversibly'' to comfort Rina while the real Yuna goes to school (as it turns out, it reversible as it was never change back in the first place)]].

* LatexPerfection: Various fake breasts and body suits invented by Dr. Manabe. And the final twist: [[spoiler:"I couldn't cut into that adorable face!" So Dr. Manabe puts on a ''very'' realistic Randoh mask over Rando's Yuna face instead.]]

* CrossesTheLineTwice: In the 4th chapter, Randoh has to take a physical as a girl. Desperate to avoid it he wrecks the doctor's room and almost kills the doctor, who at this point is revealed to be Manabe.

* DroppedABridgetOnHim: In one chapter, a DirtyOldMan feels up Randoh's leg during a stay at a supposedly haunted onsen, realizes he's a guy, and promptly gets the stuffing beat out of him. It happens in an earlier chapter (though it's because of "Yuna"'s [[{{Pettanko}} flatness]].

* HandsomeLech: Dr. Manabe.

* LatexPerfection: The final twist: [[spoiler:"I couldn't cut into that adorable face!" So Dr. Manabe puts on a ''very'' realistic Randoh mask over Rando's Yuna face instead.]]

* {{Bifauxnen}}: Though Randoh/Yuna wears feminine clothing, all girls remark her masculine behavior... and find it extremely cute.

** I hope you mean that Yu and Ri can mean sun and moon, not the other thing.

* GenderBender: Randoh... technically. He keeps his gems and pecker.

** Randoh has an ImagineSpot when he first meets [[PsychoLesbian Nozomi]] in the style of MariMite. With roses and sparkles and everything.

** The gang members that keep following "Yuna" around are nicknamed TheThreeStooges. (In the translation, at least. It maybe be a shoutout to LoveHina.)

* SchoolgirlLesbians: Nozomi is unflinching about her affection towards Randoh/Yuna (and later, Natsuo; she calls both "OneeSama", too), even when confronted about its abnormality by other students. Also, Keiko DoesNotLikeMen, but it still creeped out by Nozomi.
