Guild disbanded over a real life girl? It wasn't going to last long anyway I suppose.

Aww, it just ends there? It'd be funnier to see the actual devolution and how trying to manipulate the guys as everything falls apart around her corrupts her...

It's the Yoko Ono syndrome.

This is part of why a lot of women feel pushed out of spaces online. Getting treated like a rare spawn and then blamed for the chaos that ensues afterwards is a self-perpetuating cycle. It's neat to see a gender bender story using its unique position to help earnestly raising awareness of this kinda thing without having to hit people over the head with it. :)

If you're interested in that sort of thing, you might want to read Misfile (an anime-style western webcomic), then. It's not really directly mentioned until a few years into its run, but it was started by an artist whose father was transexual, and a large part of the point is that the main character is a boy suddenly in a girl's body, but everyone (thanks to memory alteration) thinks "she's just some silly tomboy acting up, she'll grow out of this phase."

Yeah, Misfile's great for how seriously it takes the subject. Ash is an example of what happens when a guy who is comfortable and happy being a guy suffers from a gender-bender. It's not cute or funny. It's in stark contrast to most TG/TSF protagonists who, for the most part, are possibly some degree trans-without-knowing-it. Most of the other stories are something of a wish fulfillment story or fantasy, a chance to be the thing you want to be without feeling the guilt of having betrayed one's "duty" of being a man. Or sometimes the author has a fetish, which is fine too if that's what you like. But in either case it stretches suspension of disbelief a bit.

All that said I'm really enjoying Mahiro's story. He's got a very complicated emotional relationship with Mihari and his own sense of self-worth. I really get the sense he didn't like himself very much if at all, which is good reason as any to at least experiment.

Or, you know, it could be just a cute manga about cute girls without having trannies trying to force a social justice agenda in, mixing it with self-pity and cries for attention.

Just saying. Something people just want to draw stuff.
