Synopsis
Unrequited love story: Yoshiro hides feelings for oblivious childhood friend Dai until motel incident changes everything.
Yoshiro has had hidden, unrequited feelings for his childhood friend, Dai, for several years. He constantly turns down cute girls when they ask him out. Oblivious to Yoshiro's feelings, Dai envies Yoshiro's popularity with girls, and always makes a fuss about wanting a girlfriend. Yoshiro has no intention of ever telling his airheaded friend the truth and resigns himself to a life of fluxing between appreciation for their friendship and sorrow that they can't be more. That is, until one day when the two are invited to a mixer, where Yoshiro somehow ends up dragging Dai to a motel and tries pushing him down on the bed...! This is a tantalizing love story about how a loser with unrequited feelings and his airheaded childhood friend become a couple. (Source: Renta!)
