Synopsis

High schooler Keita's unrequited love for friend Masato explores bittersweet, non-idealized adolescent romance.

Sparkling love is not the only kind there is. Keita is a high school student who likes his friend Masato. However, his love could not be more different from the sort of sparkling love often seen in BL... This is a delicate, bittersweet story of adolescence. (Source: Futabasha, translated)
