Synopsis
Hijiriko's obsessive quest for her soulmate leads to a passionate, tumultuous relationship with Oikawa exploring love's extremes.
Hijiriko is a girl in an everlasting search for love. She goes from one man to another, from one relationship to another, in an attempt to find her soulmate. Since she becomes aware of a passage from Plato's Symposium—the one that talks about the myth of the two halves—Hijiriko is almost obsessed with it. Until the day she meets the young Oikawa: passion erupts between them, and a bond is formed that will lead them to taste all the nuances of love: infatuation, passion, jealousy, madness, and revenge.
