Why I Adopted My Husband: The True Story of a Gay Couple Seeking Legal Recognition in Japan

同性婚で親子になりました。

Yuta and Kyota are a gay couple living in Japan, a country where same-sex marriage is not legally recognized. To secure their future together, they have found a unique loophole: Kyota adopted Yuta, allowing them to live together and support each other financially, medically, and legally.

This nonfiction manga follows their journey over twenty years, from how they met and fell in love to their daily life as a couple. It explores their struggles to communicate their relationship to their families, their anxieties about growing old together, and their determination to live happily and freely despite the legal barriers they face.
