Synopsis

Kojima seeks to befriend the class outcast, and soon learns of Nakahara's troubled family life - of his uncaring, abusive father and mentally unstable mother. As Kojima yearns to somehow comfort Nakahara, he gradually becomes aware that his feelings for the other boy arise from more than mere sympathy. When Nakahara declares his own romantic feelings for Kojima, their relationship becomes one of sexual exploration as they face their first steps into adulthood together.

Characters: I am so glad Kojima Yuki's character was not flamboyantly homosexual. Even though he did serve as the slightly-feminine. "uke" character, he was nit the only feminine-looking character - the rest of the characters, including Atsushi Nakahara look feminine-ish...that is just a lovely quirk about the artistic style.

Enjoyment: This manga was so ...

Story: It's a story about youth, first love and friendship. It has a simple storyline, but the characters give it a refreshing feel.

Art: I find Takanaga's art to be beautiful. It's very unique and one just knows it's her art from the first glance. In this manga the art is excellent as usual.

Kojima's the kind of person who is not afraid to show his emotions, loves helping people and is very hard working. Though ...
