Synopsis
Ritsu chases childhood friend Hachi to Tokyo three years after sudden departure, determined not to lose him again.
"This impure feeling should just disappear..." Hachi and Ritsu grew up hanging out together in the countryside despite their stark differences. Ritsu thought their relationship would never change, but Hachi suddenly moved to Tokyo after junior high school graduation without saying anything to Ritsu. Ritsu can't believe he was being neglected, so three years later he decided to go after Hachi in Tokyo... This time he will not let Hachi escapes, even though that means he must prepare for another heartbreak." From: Renta
