If I'm remembering correctly, Tinder especially has a reputation in Japan for being filled with people just looking for friends, and there's explicit advertising about this. Anyway, I loved this story before any of the romance for how it showed a really good friendship developing, one where you can drop your insecurities and feel wanted and respected. It doesn't always turn out this great, but that's often what meeting other gay and trans people is like. It's so hot how in the kissing panels, Kaede asked Ayaka whether she wanted it, and Ayaka was so confident in saying yes.
