Takeru is one of the top lieutenants in the feared yakuza outift the Oshio-gumi. He lives his life by the code of the Japanese underworld, where nothing is more important than loyalty, and ties between soldiers and their aniki are sacred bonds. Takeru's never had time for hobbies... until the boss's only daughter Megumi drags him to a K-pop concert, and he sees the glittering, charistmatic Jun for the first time. Smitten like a new recruit on his first job, Takeru plunges into fandom with the solemnity and passion only a true man who walks the way of the yakuza could muster.
Max Greenway delivers another excellent translation for Kodansha and the translation notes at the end are really helpful, especially in explaining terms from K and J-pop fandom. Theres a colour page at the front and the cover art has metallic embossing again to enhance the snazzy showbiz look (a great cover design for Kodansha from Phil Balsman). Volume 3 is tentatively scheduled for January 2024. Read Full Review
