The main story is difficult to not love. Slightly cliche and predictable, but still endearing and sweet. It definitely gives a 'warm, fuzzy' feeling, without seeming fake or too forced. And certain moments really tug on the heart strings, arguably more than I'd expected.
The characters walk the line between being unrealistic/ridiculous and genuinely well-intentioned - with a slight suspension of disbelief in some moments, this doesn't detract from the story. But if you like your men masculine and hard-edged, this is definitely not the story you're looking for. If you want a more 'mature' kind of boy, check out Rakka Sokudo instead, as that features older, accomplished characters.
But despite the almost-too-naive schoolboy protagonist, this is my favorite story from this mangaka.

| realistic story by thismomentisfate on January 12th, 2009, 6:42pm |

i really liked the first story, the relationship was realistic, you can see the attraction develop slowly (something this author is great at.) they dont meet and fall madly in love, they both slowly come to realize that they feel something special towards another guy, and one of them tries to deny it for awhile, but you cant deny love! plus, it ends in a hopeful note, not with the whole "i'll love you forever" thing, but they both know there is love and that they'll work hard to be together, they dont just believe it'll magically work out, they know its something they need to keep at.
there was one story that i really didnt like, it was the one about the uncle/nephew, (some spoilers) the uncle was such a jerk, how can he randomly have sex with his nephew like that? especially when he already has a boyfriend! but it does end realistically in the sense that the uncle runs away from the nephew so that he wont hurt the family or his boyfriend (mind you, if he didnt want to hurt them he shouldn't have slept with him in the first place.)

I loved the main story in this one volume manga. Fujiyama's ability lies in conveying restrained feelings and the study she gives to the internal thoughts and emotions of her characters. I would have given this manga a 10 if not for the one short story in this volume about the guy and his uncle *shudders*.

| yay! by mydisguise on May 17th, 2008, 10:10am |

i have always loved this mangaka and her works, this one is no exception! i love it, it's amazing. the extra about the uncle is a bit... *ahem* not normally in my taste, but it was still quite well done and the andou and minaguchi story was absolutely YAYsome, so i'll overlook it ;P
there's one page in the manga that i absolutely LOVE, possibly out of all the yaoi/BL manga i have ever read. its in chapter 4, near the end... its like:
minaguchi: *moves forward*
*pauses*
*moves back*
andou: *YANK*
LMAO its both hilarious and yummy

I too would have to agree. The main story is nice, developing in its own time and finding, along the way, good emotions.
But, though I was warned I still read the oneshots (ch.6&7). As predestined I was definitely disappointed and it kinda threw me off from the enjoyment of the main story. So if you can resist just stay away from them & if you can't, just read them another time so you don't associate them together.

| love the main story :) by mangafreaky on March 24th, 2008, 7:03am |

I love the main story, the relationship of the main pairing developed quite well from the beginning, not too rushed and looks like they developed feeling towards each other quite sweet.But I agree with tolly. I found that unrelated oneshot in the middle of the series is kinda annoying 
I absolutely love AndouX Minaguchi, and want to see more of them in the next chapter. Really looking forward for an update!

It's a cute and sweet story, and very easy to get hooked. I really sympathized with the characters. Even though it's "yaoi world," the feelings of the characters were totally real, more believable than run-of-the-mill shojo. The art was easy on the eyes, "loose" but not bad at all. I will be checking out other works by this manga-ka!

I loved it but I didn't like that one-shot and although there is still more andouxminaguchi in the extra chapter i would have liked to se even more...or maybe it's because i thought chapter 6 and 7 were about them.

| honestly by blueseeker on March 1st, 2008, 7:00pm |

The relationship progresses quite slowly and is not easy on either one of the characters involved, this seems to be a common thing on the mangaka's stories but it's what makes you want to read more about the characters and see how everything will turn out.

| Really touched me by sunflower on February 22nd, 2008, 7:23am |

| I loved this story. The characters are very real and their emotions touched me. It's about two high school boys falling in love, the tentative advances and slow acceptance of it. Very sweet. |
