Sequence Sanae Tofuya

> Please give me a sequence-like illustration of a boy of elementary school age growing up to Sanae Tofuya!
I got a niche theme, so I drew it on a new computer.

tags on the image also include

性転換sex change
急成長rapid growth
性転換過程sex conversion process
他者変身transformation into someone else
大人化becoming an adult

like shade said, seems this all heavily implies this is boy to sanae transformation.
