The Last Five Minutes of the Man

Year 2060 AD. It was a world where space development had finally begun, but among all this, there was a country struggling with population decline. That country was 'Japan'. Yes, Japan had failed to stop its declining birthrate and aging population even by 2060. Losing patience, the Japanese government passed a gender transition law. People selected by lottery would undergo gender transition from male to female in exchange for subsidies. While basic income existed and gender transition was voluntary, many people underwent the procedure for the sake of the subsidies. The protagonist is also one of those people who undergoes gender transition for the subsidies. This work is also posted on Kakuyomu.
