Family Compo isn't your typical family story! I enjoyed this manga very much. The beginning of the manga was a bit slow and stereotypical for me, since it follows the whole "Abandoned kid gets rescued by forgotten family member" plot. As soon as it hits the later chapters, alot (and I mean ALOT) of crazy stuff happens that will make you say "WHAT?". The art reminds me of something that could be featured in Shonen Jump more than Shoujo Beat but it doesn't distract too much. Yes, the story is about crossdressing females AND males but doesn't follow the "bishounen formula" for the males (which, let'sbe honest - how many male cross dressers truly look like females in real life? ...Not too many). I appreciate this 'cause it does make the story realistic and does make it seem like it could happen anywhere.

Please give this one a try. It doesn't look much but it really is a great story!
