Amane hadn't seriously liked anyone since back in middle school. He learned how painful it was to be laughed at for sharing your feelings and had sworn off ever since. Now, Amane's just transferred to a new High School in Enoshima, where he meets Ryuuji, a boy in his class. Fast friends, the jaded Amane quickly warms up to the eager Ryuuji-but that warmth continues to grow into feelings much deeper than friendship. Follow the boys through their frustratingly authentic journey through high school romance.
There's nothing here that we haven't seen before in slice-of-life Boys' Love (or romance in general) but nevertheless, there's a lightness of touch about Maru Kobato's depiction of Amane and Ryuuji getting to know each other better that's refreshing but also rings true. The mangaka's art is done with a light touch but her characters are expressive and the island of Enoshima is portrayed in an attractive way (some readers will remember it from cult favourite fishing anime tsuritama).
