Sometimes there is a good reason why love happens. I am thoroughly surprised there isn't a review for such a great, re-readable-worthy manga, so I guess I'll try my best to put one. You may come across a story similar to this in the yaoi world, but only a few are as good. The synopsis up there can be quite misleading if you expect a light, slice of life story with common relationship problems and conflict. Sure, the first chapter may seem like so, but you will know there is something up when the the focus starts to be on Kai, then things run at a dashingspeed that you will prefer reading the dialogs twice over to understand what is happening. Well, as the plot is indeed complex I will even recommend you to reread this over and over; the better your comprehension is, the more enjoyable the story will be.

The art is one of the best thing in this manga, I presume. Set in France, with all those well-drawn romantic streets, delicious classic buildings and interesting interior, details are there right when you want it. That also goes for the character. I personally can stare at the sketchy outlines and soft shades and hair details for a long time before going to the next panel. Not to mention... well... erotic kisses and hot scenes with believable angles. The art is handled very gracefully, there aren't much effects in the panels if you notice, but that emphasizes emotions even stronger.

Talking about characters, it might be hard to completely relate to them because of their very interesting backgrounds, but they have realistic reactions and views on the future. Especially when you get down to the point on why love blossoms between them. It will suddenly click, and you will realize what a warm story this is about. There isn't much character development, but the way Cys and Kai tries to endeavor to retrieve what is precious to them is a story worth contemplating about.

Overall, this is a unique, sexy and warm manga with a solid plot. Not to be missed, great to be treasured.
