''Himegoto'' is an {{otokonoko|Genre}} manga by Norio Tsukudani. It follows the story of Hime Arikawa, an average high school boy who is constantly on the run from debt collectors. His life would be turned upside down when his school's student council save him by paying off his debt. The only thing they require in return is that he join the student council, and spend the rest of his high school days dressed as a girl.

The original manga was serialized in two magazines, first in Waai! and later in Comic Rex. A spinoff, ''Himegoto+'', starred Hime's brother Kaguya and ran for seven chapters in Waai! Mahalo. An anime adaptation, produced by Asahi Production, aired in July 2014.

!!''Himegoto'' provides examples of:

* BerserkButton: Bell goes wild at any mention of her chest.
* BlindingBangs: No. 1's hairstyle completely conceals her eyes.
* ButtMonkey: Hime is this from the very start of the series. He's typically on the receiving end of jokes, and the other student council members enjoy making him do embarrassing things.
* CasanovaWannabe: Hime's friend, Tadokoro, will hit on most girls he crosses. He never gets far.
* CutShort: The fate of ''Himegoto+'', as Waai! Mahalo suspended publication. At least the characters moved to ''Himegoto''.
* DraggedIntoDrag: The girls in the student council delight in dressing Hime in girls' clothes, and encouraging him when he shows signs of enjoying it.
* GenderBlenderName: Hime, meaning "princess", and Kaguya, which originates from a female character in an old tale, are the names of the Arikawa ''brothers''.
* HiddenDepths: Unko, the childish one of the student council girls, is later revealed to be the top of her class.
* HypocriticalHumor: ''Himegoto+'', chapter 2, where the Public Morals Committee is tasked with doing clothing checks on the other students. Kaguya points out that everyone probably doesn't want to be told by a group of cross-dressers about uniform violations.
* LethalChef: Kaguya as shown in ''Himegoto+'', chapter 6. He wrecks a kitchen while trying to prepare food, and what he does make is terrible.
* {{Meido}}: Hiro's job, as Mitsunaga's servant.
* NoFourthWall: ''Himegoto'', chapter 15, released right after the announcement of the anime and the end of ''Himegoto+'', revolves around the characters celebrating the announcement and discussing the fates of the Public Morals Committee members.
* NoodleIncident: The start of the manga has Hime running from some yakuza while wearing a maid uniform. When the student council members mention as much, he refuses to elaborate on it.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: 18+, Bell, and No. 1 are only ever referred to as such.
* ParentalAbandonment: Hime and Kaguya's parents are always going off on trips around the world, leaving their children behind.
* RunningGag: Kaguya and No. 1 entering the committee room, only to see Mitsunaga and Hiro in an intimate act.
* SiblingYinYang: Hime usually hates cross-dressing and doesn't unless he absolutely has to. In contrast, Kaguya ''revels'' in it and is always dressed as a girl.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Happens in the first chapter of both ''Himegoto'' and ''Himegoto+''-- the former when the student council members learn that the cute maid they saved is a boy, and the latter when Kaguya mentions that No. 1 is a girl.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: Hime, of course. The Public Morals Committee takes this to the extreme, as ''everyone'' in it is cross-dressing. Even [[SweetPollyOliver No. 1]].
* {{Yonkoma}}: The manga started out in this format. Later chapters used a more traditional layout, though.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: The Arikawas have pink hair, Bell's hair is blue, and No. 1 has purple hair.
* ZettaiRyouiki: 18+, Kaguya, and Mitsunaga all sport this style.
