Chapter 18: Maniacal Girl

Akria sees himself for the first time as the Maniacal 'Girl'

### Lessons Learned

With no experience or tolerance for being around real, live girls, or even masquerading as a 'girl', Akria only now realizes that he is at a tremendous disadvantage.

MANIACAL 'GIRL'

CHAPTER 18 OF THE MANGA

(Story Note---This chapter is the background story of how a seemingly typical male high school student developed an iphone app that produces an instantaneous change to resemble an anime Maho Shoujo girl, albeit one with dark, confused, and troublesome motives. Most of this chapter is in the form of a flashback, telling how the male student came to be, over time, the gender-bending female Maniacal 'Girl', as well as at other times masquerading as an innocent-looking, super cute, twin tailed ordinary teenage 'girl'.)

## Previously

This chapter, in and of itself, is the previous telling of the story by means of a series of flashbacks.

## Chapter Overview

One month ago Akria Asaba is working out his passion, to become a Dark Lord. He develops an iphone app that will subject himself to a Henshin. But what form or appearance should he use ? The answer comes to him when he is captivated by only a glance towards the super cute schoolgirl Karii Maki. Despite his lack of understanding of the form and culture of the female teenager, he, nonetheless, chooses to masquerade as a teenage girl, both costumed as a Dark Lord, and as an ordinary teenage girl for out in public.

But his plans have a major flaw. According to his personal moral code, he has not been around teenage girls, or even looked at pictures of them. How can Akria *be a girl*, if he *can't stand to be around girls, or even look at them ?* In the present time, a month later, Akria realizes just how much he is handicapped, but has not figured out how to address the dilemma.

## This Chapter's Story

ONE MONTH AGO-----

Akira Asaba is in his bedroom, at his desk, working away and fervently staring at his laptop. Suddenly, he breaks out in a dark "Mu-ha-ha-ha" chuckle and laughter ! He tells himself that with just a little more time, he will be able to become a real, honest Dark Lord. After a long while, he takes a break by leaning back on his chair. He ponders what his alternate appearance should or will be ? He considers villains from video games and manga, as well as popular monsters in the culture, but decides against such. He continues to lean back and stare at the ceiling. Finally, when no ideas come to mind, he decides to put it off till later. An idea will eventually come ! He goes back to the laptop for continued research. The digital clock on the desk shows 2:17 AM.

Next day was a school day, so not surprising, during class Akria is asleep at his desk. After quite some time and with a jolt, he awakens. But the classroom is empty. He must have been asleep since homeroom ! He tells himself that his lack of sleep can't be helped; working on his iphone app is more important. Leaving the empty classroom, he is yawning profusely. But something hits him like a ton of bricks. A super cute teenage girl, wearing the official female school uniform, stunningly attractive with a huge bow in her hair, nonchalantly walks by and turns a corner. She's a real 'head-turner' ! He hasn't ever seen her before ! However, he tells himself that now is not the time for such trivial matters. Upon second thought, Akria realizes that this ravishingly cute girl has 'stopped him dead in his tracks' ! Holding still in the hallway and thinking out loud, the revelation comes to him that although he is soon to become a Dark Lord, still, a pretty girl passes by, and he becomes *completely captivated !* He was *captivated*. . . . . . . . ***captivated*** . . . . . . . ?!?

" **THAT'S IT !!!!!!!** "

Reasoning with himself, as he often does---In modern society, having the appearance of a really cute girl---that would be a dead ringer way of exploiting the human heart ! Moreover, as a guy, such 'transformation' would make their male appearance and male gender identity near impossible to detect and expose. As a rough mental picture forms in Akria's mind of such a girl, he continues to reason. Despite being a Dark Lord, he could appear as an innocent magical 'girl'----no, wait ! A Maniacal 'Girl' !!!

That evening, well into the night, and after much blood, sweat, and tears pouring over his laptop, Akria is able to finally go through a Henshin and become the girl he saw in his mind earlier---A fully costumed Maniacal 'Girl'. With some trepidation, he puts his hand on his chest--*-real soft, squishy boobs* ! He then puts his flat hand on the front of the mini-skirt and strokes inward---*no boy bits, only girl bits !*  **Triumph ! Success !**

But immediately, another problem surfaces. Despite Akria's propensity for pursuing all things hidden, dark, and troublesome, he has always held himself to a high moral code. When other male schoolmates would offer to share a *Playboy* magazine with him, he would always decline. Any discussion of "girl stuffs" was met with strict avoidance. Therefore, he has no tolerance or abilities with anything regarding the opposite sex. Still dressed as the Maniacal 'Girl', he tells himself that he will just have to gradually get used to "it".

A MONTH LATER ( PRESENT DAY )

Male Akria is sitting by himself in his bedroom, reviewing in his mind all of his recent experiences. He *still has not got used to* **"it" !** Nevertheless, he tells himself that he will begin his Maniacal 'Girl" activities right after mid-term exams. As he continues to muse, he notes that the super cute girl back then is actually now in the Maho Shoujo Club.

    Practicing the Henshin, he changes into the Maniacal 'Girl' right then and there. He tells himself that he never needs to worry about Maho Curry. This because, looking into his mirror, he is the cutest 'girl' around ! Akria reinforces his thinking by noting that because Maho Curry is with other girls, both in and out of the club, she is especially brazen in her cuteness and female fashion styles and presentations. Now since there is still time before dinner, he will continue his "Special Training" to get used to his female appearing body. In a flash, he is down to only wearing girl's panties, nothing more.

'She' stairs at 'herself' in the mirror, with a disgusting look on 'her' face. No good ! 'She' calls up Sonnen. Sonnen goes right for 'her' attractive bust. No!........*No!.*......**.NO!!!!!** Sonnen is dismissed and disappears. Now sweating profusely and thoroughly disheartened, but still wearing only her panties, 'she' continues to stare at 'herself' in the mirror. . . . . . .

**" WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING ??? " ,** continues to scream in 'her' mind, heart, and soul.

Laying down in 'her' bed, 'she' tells 'herself' that this is all for today !

AFTER DINNER---

Back in his bedroom, in male mode, Akria decides to augment his "training" by looking at anime girls on the Internet ( girls with a MOE factor over 9000? ). Blushing deeply, he concedes that this part of the "training" did not go well, either.

## Chapter Lookback and Commentary

Sonnen is scolded, but it seems that he does not comprehend or understand why !

Interesting contrast here: Akira isn’t used to being a girl after a whole month, but Minami got used to it right away; imo, that shows who each of them is on the inside. [Minami is a transgender male-to-female; Akira is a gender-bending male] This series is still promising regarding being positive towards actual transgender people and I hope it stays that way!

**Sheep in Wolf's Clothing / 9 months ago**

You hit the nail on the head, Lady vivi !!! Minami, as Maho Curry and Karii Maki, is a genuine transgender male to female anime girl and teenager. Akria is a gender-bending, cross-dressing male. This may, IMO, explain why Maho Curry will, I hope, be shown as the more powerful and resourceful maho shoujo girl, as well as the best super cute teenage girl !

There's no way you made it all the way here without knowing fully well what the deal is.

Though that's funny and more or less true, the thing is... That [gender-bender male] is a [real] 'girl' after the app has been used...
