Well, for once, the girl is posing as a guy and not the other way around. Only time I remember seeing that recently was in Ladies VS Butlers, and that wasn't a central point.

I was JUST about to say: the side character from Ladies vs Butlers. I liked that character too.

...huh?

1/2 Prince
Girl Got Game
Hana Kimi
Kaze Hikaru
March Story
Penguin Revolution (Though in this, both the guy and girl crossdress)
Tokyo Crazy Paradise
Ouran High School Host Club

That's not all of them, I'm sure I'm forgetting a few popular ones... but really, don't girls crossdress more often? The main character girls, I mean. I can't remember many main crossdressing guys, other than Izumi from Tenshi Ja Nai! and Makoto from W Juliet. Most of the time when there's a crossdressing guy, he's just a side character.

Girls crossdress much more often; both in anime and life, its just more socially acceptable so it doesn't always register.

I'm sad that they chose to animate this particular title. There was another series I forgot the name of with a much more convincing reverse trap butler.

I'm surprised crossdressing girls hasn't become more of a trend. What's better than invoking fangirl squeals and possible lesbianism from the sight of a beautiful, somewhat masculine female? Surprised
